Key features of the new USB Type-C™ connector
The Type-C connector has been designed to:
- ensure reversible plug orientation and cable direction
- deliver up to 100 W through USB Power Delivery (PD) profiles while supporting proprietary charging algorithms with the Programmable Power Supply feature (PPS)
- support USB 3.1 with data rates up to 10 Gbit/s
- enable other common data communication protocols (Alternate Modes)
The new USB Type-C™ connector also ensures secure data transfer during the authentication process between two devices and safe charging. Thanks also to its small and lean form-factor, the new USB Type-C™ connector is very quickly gaining traction in the industry.
