USB Type C Data Cable

PD data cable refers to a data charging cable that supports PD fast charging protocol. Compared with ordinary data lines, PD data lines internally integrate a quasi-resonant operating current mode controller and power MOSFET. It has the characteristics of high performance, low standby power consumption, and low cost, and can be implemented for electronic devices that support PD fast charging. fast charging. 

PD fast charging, also known as USB-PD, is a fast charging specification developed by the USB-IF organization and is also one of the current mainstream fast charging protocols. USB-PD fast charging protocol is based on Interface output, but whether the data cable or device supports PD fast charging cannot be judged by the interface alone.At present, the PD data line internally integrates a quasi-resonant operating current mode controller and power MOSFET, which has the characteristics of high performance, low standby power consumption, and low cost. Compared with ordinary charging cables, PD data cables have higher output current and faster charging speed.At the same time, PD data lines generally provide relatively comprehensive intelligent protection functions, including output overvoltage protection, periodic overcurrent protection, overload protection, and soft start functions.

The following are the main application areas of USB Type-C Data Cables:

Mobile devices: USB Type-C Data Cables are widely used to connect smartphones, tablets, headsets, handheld game consoles and other mobile devices for data transmission, charging and connecting external accessories.

Laptops and Desktops: Many modern laptops and desktops are equipped with USB Type-C interfaces, and USB Type-C Data Cables are used to connect these devices to external hard drives, monitors, printers, etc.

Monitors and TVs: USB Type-C Data Cables with video output can be used to connect monitors, TVs, and projectors to transmit video and audio signals to external screens.

Chargers and Power Adapters: USB Type-C Data Cables are often used in conjunction with USB Type-C chargers and power adapters to provide power to a variety of devices.

USB Type-C offers many advantages over traditional USB connection standards, including:

The Type-C interface can be plugged into the front and back sides, and there is no need to distinguish between the front and back directions when using it.

The Type-C interface can transmit higher rates, and 4K-level video can be transmitted in interfaces that support the USB3.1 function.

The Type-C interface can support larger current, meet the charging functions of 3A and 5A, and support reverse charging.

The Type-C interface is more secure and has a more refined and reliable structure.

Overall, USB-C is a superior connector to previous USB standards. It is faster, more powerful, and more versatile. This is why it is becoming the new standard for data transfer and charging.

Merchant FAQ

What’s the Payment Term?

Normally, TT 50% before prototype sample preparing or part design, 100% in advanced before delivery. If payment is over $5000 or the big order placed, the payment term could be discussed.

How About the Delivery?

Normally we arrange air express like DHL, UPS, or FedEx etc. for samples, ocean shipping for heavy production. Besides, customers specify also is acceptable.

When Will You Start to Help Design?

We sketch simple solution for initial discussion, after quotation and order start to drawing then double confirm with client

Product Q&A

What are the advantages of USB Type C Data Cables over other USB connectors?

USB Type C Data Cables offer several advantages, including faster data transfer speeds, higher power delivery for fast charging, and a reversible design that eliminates the frustration of plugging in the cable the wrong way. They also support various protocols like USB 3.1 and Thunderbolt.

Can USB Type C Data Cables deliver power and transfer data simultaneously?

Yes, USB Type C Data Cables support Power Delivery (PD) technology, enabling them to deliver power and transfer data simultaneously. This feature is particularly useful for charging laptops and other high-power devices while transferring data at high speeds.

Are USB Type C Data Cables compatible with older USB ports?

Yes, USB Type C Data Cables are compatible with older USB ports through adapters or specific cables with different connectors on each end. Adapters and converters are readily available to ensure compatibility with USB Type A or Micro USB ports.

Can USB Type C Data Cables transmit video and audio signals?

Yes, USB Type C Data Cables can transmit video and audio signals, especially when they support protocols like DisplayPort or Thunderbolt. This feature allows users to connect devices to monitors, TVs, and audio equipment using a single cable for both data and multimedia transmission.

Are all USB Type C Data Cables created equally in terms of quality and performance?

No, not all USB Type C Data Cables are equal in terms of quality and performance. Certified cables from reputable manufacturers undergo stringent testing to meet industry standards. Choosing certified cables ensures proper functionality, safety, and optimal performance for your devices.

Can USB Type C Data Cables be used for connecting external storage devices?

Yes, USB Type C Data Cables can connect external storage devices such as external hard drives, SSDs, and flash drives. They provide high-speed data transfer capabilities, making them suitable for expanding storage and accessing files quickly and efficiently.

What is the maximum cable length available for USB Type C Data Cables?

The maximum cable length for USB Type C Data Cables depends on the specific design and application. Standard lengths range from a few inches to several meters. For longer distances, active cables or signal repeaters may be used to maintain data integrity over extended lengths.

How do USB Type C Data Cables contribute to reducing electronic waste?

USB Type C Data Cables contribute to reducing electronic waste by promoting universal compatibility. With the same connector across various devices, users can utilize existing USB Type C cables, reducing the need for new cables and adapters. This standardization helps minimize electronic waste and promotes a more sustainable approach to technology.
