Prior to vSphere 6.x, all services offered by vCenter was handled by single vCenter component. With the release of vSphere 6.x, VMware divided vCenter in two, PSC and vCenter. following services are transferred to PSC :

VMware Appliance Management Service

VMware Authentication Framework

VMware Certificate Service

VMware Common Logging Service

VMware Component Manager

VMware Directory Service

VMware HTTP Reverse Proxy

VMware Identity Management Service

VMware License Service

VMware Security Token Service

VMware Service Control Agent

VMware Syslog Health Service

So SSO workflow and Certificate services are handled by PSC. You have two options while installing vCenter. Install vCenter with embedded PSC controller or install PSC as separate component. Here are few link you can go through to understand it better.
