What is the difference between popular science [Type-C] and ordinary interfaces?

What an interface!
A connection interface of the USB interface, which can be inserted regardless of the front and back, the size is about 8.3mm & mes; 2.5mm, and supports USB standard charging, data transmission, display output and other functions like other interfaces. The interface belongs to a relatively new type of interface, and it is estimated that it will become popular soon. For example, the new version of MacBook and LeTV mobile phones all use this interface.


As early as December 2013, the USB 3.0 promotion team had released a rendering of the next-generation USB connector, which was then ready for mass production in August 2014. The highlights of the new version of the interface are a slimmer design, faster transmission speed (up to 10Gbps) and more powerful power transmission (up to 100W). The biggest feature of the Type-C double-sided pluggable interface is that it supports double-sided insertion of the USB interface, which officially solves the worldwide problem of "USB can never be inserted correctly", and the front and back can be inserted casually. At the same time, the USB data cable used with it must also be thinner and lighter.

       Type-C Features
1. The maximum data transmission speed reaches 10Gbit/s, which is also the standard of USB3.1; 2. The size of the Type-C interface socket end is about 8.3mm&mes; 2.5mm slim design; 4. The standard specification cable with Type-C connector can pass 3A current, and also supports "USB PD" that exceeds the existing USB power supply capability, which can provide maximum 100W of power.

Type-C Appearance Features
1. Ultra-thin


Thinner bodies require thinner ports, which is one of the reasons why USB-C came into being. The USB-C port is 0.83cm long and 0.26cm wide. The old-fashioned USB ports are 1.4cm long and 0.65cm wide. This also means that the end of the USB-C cable will be one-third the size of a standard USB-A type cable plug.


2. No pros and cons


Like Apple's Lightning port, the front and back of the USB-C port are identical. This means that no matter how you plug it into the port, it will be correct. Users don't have to worry about the pros and cons of traditional USB ports.

Type-C main function
1. Fast


In theory, the maximum transfer rate of a USB-C port is 10Gb per second. But Apple says the new MacBook's USB-C port has a maximum transfer rate of 5Gbps. The maximum output voltage is 20 volts, which can speed up the charging time. And USB-A, so far the limit transfer rate is 5Gbps, the output voltage is 5V.


2. All-rounder


The new MacBook's USB-C port can transfer data, charge it, and also serve as a video-out port to link an external display device. The only question is how Apple caters to users who want to do all three at the same time.


3. Bidirectional


Unlike older USB ports, where power can only be transferred in one direction, the USB-C port’s power transfer is bidirectional, which means it can have two ways of sending power. Therefore, the user can not only charge the mobile device with the notebook, but also charge the notebook with other devices or a power bank.


4. Backward compatibility


USB-C can be compatible with the old USB standard, but users need to buy an additional adapter to complete the compatibility. Apple said that not only does Apple officially sell adapters, but third-party companies can also authorize production.

Type-C technical features
In December 2013, the USB 3.0 promotion team had released a rendering of the next-generation USB Type-C connector, which was then ready for mass production in August 2014.

At the same time, the USB data cable used with it must also be thinner and lighter.



In conclusion, USB Type-C has the following characteristics:


1. The maximum data transmission speed reaches 10Gbit/s, which is also the standard of USB3.1;


2. The size of the Type-C interface socket end is about 8.3mm & TImes; 2.5mm slim design;


3. Supports the "positive and negative insertion" function that can be inserted from both sides, and can withstand 10,000 repeated insertions and withdrawals;


4. The standard cable equipped with Type-C connector can pass 3A current, and also supports "USB PD" that exceeds the existing USB power supply capability, which can provide a maximum power of 100W.
