## Design and implementation
**Figure 1. Firmware flowchart**
<img src = "images/flowchart.png" width = "850"/>
<br>
The firmware operation is divided into three sections:
### Initialization
The application firmware entry happens when the bootloader detects a valid firmware image and jumps to the specified address. The firmware first verifies the configuration information stored in flash by calculating the checksum of the table and comparing against the value stored in the table. If the checksum does not match, it automatically switches to the bootloader mode for flashing. When a valid configuration table is identified, the firmware proceeds to initialize the peripheral blocks and then enables the various system interrupts.
### Main task loop
The main task loop is an infinite loop executing the specific set of tasks periodically. These tasks get executed sequentially as shown in Figure 1.
- **Qi tasks:** The Qi FW module only processes high priority tasks inside the interrupt context or inside blocked critical sections. It then stores various Qi-specific interrupts and pending events and the main task loop continuously executes a Qi state machine task function which performs the actual handling. The solution manager handlers are invoked from inside this task function.
- **PD tasks:** The PD FW module only processes high priority tasks inside the interrupt context. It then stores various PD-specific interrupts and events in an event bit mask. The main task loop continuously executes a PD scheduler task functionz, which performs the actual handling. The solution manager handlers are invoked from inside this task function.
- **HPI tasks:** WLC communicates with the host processor/application processor for handling device-common commands and WiCG-specific commands. This task processes any host processor requests. Please refer to the WiCG host processor interface document, JRND-55, for more details.
- **Console tasks:** WLC provides console interface through a UART peripheral for solution status logging. This task collects console print requests in the console queue from various modules and processes them based on request priority or verbosity level.
- **Instrumentation tasks:** The instrumentation task mainly monitors the firmware state and provides a recovery path in system error events such as WDT software and hardware reset and stack overflow etc.
### Low Power mode
Sleep mode is not used in the general WLC stack implementation, as all of the tasks are implemented in the form of state machines that can have incremental work to be completed.
The WLC devices support a low power mode called Deep Sleep. In this mode, the IMO is disabled and only ILO is functional. WLC attempts to stay in Deep Sleep mode for as long as possible when no Qi object is detected, waking up only long enough to perform any work triggered due to incoming Qi or Type-C or PD events or I2C-based requests.
<br>
## QiStack
**Figure 2. QiStack components**
<img src = "images/qistack.png" width = "500"/>
- **Qi Policy manager:** The Qi Policy Manager (QPM) is the top layer and maintains the core stack state machine. It interacts with the HAL layer and low-level Qi modules such as the communication manager, object manager, and power manager for configuration, monitoring, request, control, and event handling.
- **Communication manager:** Qi uses amplitude shift keying (ASK) and frequency shift keying (FSK) for in-band communication between the transmitter and receiver. ASK is the communication mode from Rx to Tx, while FSK is the communication mode from Tx to Rx.
- **Object manager:** The Qi transmitter detects the object and the type of object on its coil surface before initiating power transfer and also while power transfer is in progress. The object can either be Rx only or FO only or RX + FO.
- **Power manager:** The power manager handles the inverter, coil voltage/current, and PID loop methods.
The QiStack middleware library implements the state machines defined in the [Wireless Power Consortium Qi v1.3.2](https://www.wirelesspowerconsortium.com/knowledge-base/specifications/)
.
## PDStack
The PDStack middleware library implements the state machines defined in the [USB Type-C cable and connector](https://www.usb.org/document-library/usb-type-cr-cable-and-connector-specification-revision-20) and the [USB Power Delivery](https://www.usb.org/document-library/usb-power-delivery) specifications. PDStack consists of the following main modules:
- **Type-C manager:** Responsible for detecting a Type-C connection and identifying the type of connection. It uses the configurable Rp/Rd terminations provided by the USBPD block and the internal line state comparators. The Type-C manager implements the state machines defined in the *USB Type-C cable and connector specification* and provides the following functionality:
- *Manage CC terminations*: Applies Rp/Rd terminations according to the port role
- *Attach detection*: Performs the required debounce and determines the type of device attached
- *Detach detection*: Monitors the CC line and Vbus for detecting a device detach
- **Protocol layer:** Forms the messages used to communicate between a pair of ports/cable plugs. It is responsible for forming capability messages, requests, responses, and acknowledgements. It receives inputs from the policy engine indicating which messages to send and relays the responses back to the policy engine.
- **Policy engine:** Provides a mechanism to monitor and control the USB Power Delivery system within a particular consumer, provider, or cable plug. It implements the state machines defined in the *USB Power Delivery* specification and contains implementations of all PD atomic message sequences (AMS). It interfaces with the protocol layer for PD message transmission/reception for controlling the reception of message types according to conditions such as the current state of the port. It also interfaces with the Type-C manager for error conditions such as Type-C error recovery.
- **Device policy manager (DPM):** Provides an interface to the application layer to initialize, monitor, and configure the PDStack middleware operation. The DPM provides the following functionality:
- Initialize the policy engine and Type-C manager
- Start the Type-C state machine followed by the policy engine state machine
- Stop and disable the Type-C port
- Allow entry/exit from Deep Sleep to achieve low power based on the port status
- Provide APIs for the application to send PD/Type-C commands
- Provide event callbacks to the application for application-specific handling
The PDStack library uses a set of callbacks registered by the application to perform board-specific tasks, such as turning the consumer power path ON/OFF and identifying the optimal source power profile to be used for charging. In this example, these functions are implemented using the appropriate APIs provided as part of the peripheral driver library (PDL).
The stack also provides notification of various connection and PD policy state changes so that the rest of the system can be configured as required. These events are used by the example application to implement a separate USB Battery Charging 1.2 sink state machine, which distinguishes between a standard downstream port (SDP), charging downstream port (CDP), and dedicated charging port (DCP).
**Bootloader**
The WLCx bootloader is a fixed function firmware segment, which is factory-programmed and provides firmware upgrade and configuration update functionality over the I2C and CC interface.
**Deep Sleep**
The application tries to keep the WLCx MCU device in Deep Sleep, where all clocks are disabled and only limited hardware blocks are enabled for most of its working time. Interrupts in the USBPD block are configured to detect any changes that happen while the device is in sleep, and wake it up for further processing.
**Fault protection**
- *Type-C VBUS undervoltage protection (VBUS UVP)*: Incorporates a dedicated voltage comparator with an integrated digital filter that detects undervoltage on the Type-C VBUS. On VBUS undervoltage detection, the VBUS and buck-boost regulator are turned off to protect onboard components as well as the external sink devices. Voltage levels to detect undervoltage, debounce period, and retries are configurable through the Wireless Charging Configuration Utility.
- *Type-C VBUS overvoltage protection (VBUS OVP)*: Incorporates a dedicated voltage comparator with an integrated digital filter that detects overvoltage on the Type-C VBUS. Type-C VBUS overvoltage handling and configurability are similar to VBUS UVP.
- *Type-C VBUS overcurrent protection (VBUS OCP)*: Incorporates a current sense amplifier and a dedicated comparator with an integrated digital filter that detects overcurrent on the Type-C VBUS. Type-C VBUS overcurrent handling and configurability are similar to VBUS UVP.
- *Type-C VBUS Short-circuit protection (VBUS SCP)*: Shares the current sense amplifier with VBUS OCP and incorporates a dedicated comparator with an integrated digital filter that detects overcurrent on Type-C VBUS. The debounce period and retries are configurable through the Wireless Charging Configuration Utility.
- *VIN undervoltage protection (VIN UVP)*: Supports comparator-based VIN UV detection and also supports Auto Provider FET cut-off.
- *VIN overvoltage protection (VIN OVP)*: Supports comparator-based VIN OV detection and also supports Auto Provider FET cut-off.
- *VREG inrush current limit*: Incorporates protection against large current load on VDDD (internal regulator). This helps to avoid VDDD droop because of inrush and also unknown behavior of the device and possible brownout. The port is disabled (buck-boost turned off) after a fault is detected and device software reset is executed to recover from VDDD fault. Device reset is necessary because any misbehavior in VDDD needs to reset the device completely to start fresh firmware/hardware execution.
- *VDDD brown-out detection (VDDD BOD)*: VDDD can enter the hardware brown-out level because of lower voltage or GND short on VDDD or inrush current. A software brown-out detection helps to exit the context or state cleanly by disabling buck-boost regulation and other components.
### Compile-time configurations

### PDStack library selection
The USB Type-C connection manager, USB Power Delivery (USBPD) protocol layer, and USBPD device policy engine state machine implementations are provided in the form of pre-compiled libraries as part of the PDStack middleWare library.
Multiple variants of the PDStack library with different feature sets are provided; you can choose the appropriate version based on the features required by the target application.
- *WLC1_PD3_SNK*: Library with support for USB Type-C sink operation and USBPD Revision 3.0 messaging. This library can be used in any Power-Delivery WLCx application.
The library of choice can be selected by editing the *Makefile* in the application folder and changing the value of the `COMPONENTS` variable.
### Device configuration
The properties of the device parameters, wireless configuration, and USB PD configuration including the port role and the default response to various USBPD messages can be configured using the Wireless Charging Configuration Utility.
These parameters have been set to the appropriate values for a Power Delivery sink application by default.
**Wireless charger configuration**
**Figure 3. Qi configuration using Wireless Charging Configuration Utility**
<img src = "images/qimain.png" width = "645"/>
<br>
- *Qi main configuration*: The Qi main configuration details such as profile, mode, packet timeout, and EPT counter parameters.
- *Coils*: Configure the parameters specific to the coil.
- *Qi foreign object detection (FOD) configuration*: Configure Qi foreign object detection (FOD) Q factor parameters of the coil
- *Vin configuration*: Enables/Disables dynamic PD contract selection based on PRx requirements to optimize power usage.
- *Fault-protection configuration*: Configure parameters for the protection mechanisms.
**PD configuration**
**Figure 4. USB Type-C port configuration using Wireless Charging Configuration Utility**
<img src = "images/ezpd_port_info.png" width = "645"/>
<br>
Properties of the USB-C port are configured using the *Port Information* section. Because this application supports only the USBPD sink operation, the **Port Role** must be set as **Sink** and **DRP Toggle** must be disabled. Other parameters such as **Manufacturer Vendor ID** and **Manufacturer Product ID** can be set to desired values.
The **Source PDO** and **SCEDB Configuration** sections are not applicable for this application because only the sink operation is supported.
**Figure 5. Sink capability configuration using Wireless Charging Configuration Utility**
<img src = "images/ezpd_sink_pdo.png" width = "645"/>
<br>
The power capabilities supported by the application in the sink role are specified using the *Sink PDO* section. See the *USB Power Delivery* specification for details on how to encode the various sink capabilities. A maximum of seven PDOs can be added using the configurator.
**Figure 6. Extended sink capability configuration using Wireless Charging Configuration Utility**
<img src = "images/ezpd_ext_snk_cap.png" width = "645"/>
<br>
The *SKEDB* section is used to input the extended sink capabilities response that will be sent by the application when queried by the power source. See the Power Delivery specification for details on the extended sink capabilities format.
Once the parameters are updated as desired, save the configuration and build the application.
