Product Design Know-How USB Type-C Connector

USB Type-C is a hardware interface specification for Universal Serial Bus (USB). The highlights of the new interface are a slimmer design, faster transfer speeds, and more powerful transmission. The biggest feature of the Type-C is to support a double-sided pluggable interface and insertion. Meanwhile, the USB data cable used with it must also be thinner and lighter.

USB Type-C features

1. The maximum data transmission speed reaches 10 Gbit/s, which is also the standard of USB 3.1.
2. Type-C interface socket end size is about 8.3mm × 2.5mm slim design.
3. Supports “double-sided insertion” function, and can withstand 10,000 times of insertion and removal.
4. Standard Type-C cable specification can pass 3A current and a maximum power of 100W.

Design compliant with

1. Read the USB Association data in detail, record relevant design parameters, and combine the mechanism requirements from the client to prepare relevant material collection before design.
2. The structural design must fully comply with the requirements of the association, and the materials selected for the components must meet the electrical performance requirements.
