The OTI9108 is a complete single transceiver front end for data USB PD Type-C (baseband) communications. It has a register interface which, with an MPU, and available Obsidian software, a complete PD port device can be designed.
At $72K for a basic multi-use license The OT9108 is not only the most mature USB Type-C IP available, it is the lowest cost.
Turnkey chips and customized software are available
Complete USB Type-C Power Delivery PHY, RTL, and Software
