March 5, 2026 /SemiMedia/ — Infineon Technologies AG has introduced the EZ-PD PMG1-B2, a USB-C Power Delivery microcontroller designed for high-voltage lithium-ion battery charging in embedded systems.

The device integrates a 55V buck-boost controller and supports charging for 2- to 12-cell Li-ion battery packs. It complies with the latest USB Type-C and USB PD standards and supports an input voltage range from 4.5V to 55V.

The controller is built around a 32-bit Arm Cortex-M0 core with 128KB flash and 8KB SRAM. It also includes analog and digital peripherals such as ADC, PWM, UART, I²C and SPI interfaces, helping reduce external components and PCB space.

Infineon said the device targets applications powered through USB-C, including cordless tools, home appliances, e-bikes, e-scooters, drones and robotics systems.

The PMG1-B2 will also support a 240W USB-C PD 3.2 reference design developed with Arrow Electronics, combining the controller with PSOC C3 and 100V CoolGaN G5 transistors for compact battery-powered motor control systems.

Production of the EZ-PD PMG1-B2 is expected to begin in the second quarter of 2026. for more information please visit www.infineon.com/pmg1-b2.
