1. Usb3 1 Type C Phone

USB-C Type Digital audio/video/data connector/power2 Production history Designer Designed 11 August 2014 (published) USB-C, formally known as USB Type-C, is a 24-pin connector system, which is distinguished by its two-fold rotationally-symmetrical connector. The USB Type-C Specification 1.0 was published by the (USB-IF) and was finalized in August 2014. It was developed at roughly the same time as the specification. In July 2016, it was adopted by the IEC as 'IEC 62680-1-3'. A device with a Type-C connector does not necessarily implement, or any: the Type-C connector is common to several technologies while mandating only a few of them., released in September 2017, replaces the USB 3.1 standard. It preserves existing USB 3.1 SuperSpeed and SuperSpeed+ data modes and introduces two new SuperSpeed+ transfer modes over the connector using two-lane operation, with data rates of 10 and 20 Gbit/s (1250 and 2500 MB/s).

USB-C port (receptacle) on a The 24-pin double-sided connector is slightly larger than the, with a USB-C port measuring 8.4 millimetres (0.33 in) by 2.6 millimetres (0.10 in). Two kind of connectors exist, female (receptacle) and male (plug). Plugs are found on cables and adapters. Receptacles are found on devices and adapters. Cables USB-C 3.1 cables are considered full-featured USB-C cables. They are electronically marked cables that contain a chip with an ID function based on the configuration channel and vendor-defined messages (VDM) from the specification.

Cable length should be ≤2 m for Gen 1 or ≤1 m for Gen 2. Electronic ID chip provides information about product/vendor, cable connectors, USB signalling protocol (2.0, Gen 1, Gen 2), passive/active construction, use of V CONN power, available V BUS current, latency, RX/TX directionality, SOP controller mode, and hardware/firmware version.

USB-C 2.0 cables do not have shielded SuperSpeed pairs, sideband use pins, or additional wires for power lines. Increased cable lengths up to 4 m are possible. All USB-C cables must be able to carry a minimum of 3 A current (at 20 V, 60 W) but can also carry high-power 5 A current (at 20 V, 100 W). All USB-C to USB-C cables must contain e-marker chips programmed to identify the cable and its current capabilities. USB Charging ports should also be clearly marked with capable power wattage.

Full-featured USB-C cables that implement Gen 2 can handle up to 10 Gbit/s data rate at full duplex. They are marked with a SuperSpeed+ (SuperSpeed 10 Gbit/s) logo. There are also cables which can carry only with up to 480 Mbit/s data rate. There are certification programs available for USB-C products and end users are recommended to use USB-IF certified cables.

Devices Devices may be hosts (DFP: Downstream-facing port) or peripherals (UFP: Upstream-facing port). Some, such as, can take either role depending on what kind is detected on the other end. These types of ports are called Dual-Role-Data (DRD) ports, which was known as in the previous specification. When two such devices are connected, the roles are randomly assigned but a swap can be commanded from either end, although there are optional path and role detection methods that would allow devices to select a preference for a specific role. Furthermore, dual-role devices that implement may independently and dynamically swap data and power roles using the Data Role Swap or Power Role Swap processes. This allows for charge-through hub or applications where the USB-C device acts as a USB data host while acting as a power consumer rather than a source. USB-C devices may optionally provide or consume bus power currents of 1.5 A and 3.0 A (at 5 V) in addition to baseline bus power provision; power sources can either advertise increased USB current through the configuration channel, or they can implement the full USB Power Delivery specification using both BMC-coded configuration line and legacy -coded V BUS line.

Connecting an older device to a host with a USB-C receptacle requires a cable or adapter with a USB-A or USB-B plug or receptacle on one end and a USB-C plug on the other end. Legacy adapters with a USB-C receptacle are 'not defined or allowed' by the specification because they can create 'many invalid and potentially unsafe' cable combinations.

Modes Audio Adapter Accessory Mode A device with a USB-C port may support analog headsets through an audio adapter with a 3.5 mm jack, providing four standard analog audio connections (Left, Right, Microphone, and Ground). The audio adapter may optionally include a USB-C charge-through port to allow 500 mA device charging. The engineering specification states that an analog headset shall not use a USB-C plug instead of a 3.5 mm plug. In other words, headsets with a USB-C plug should always support digital audio (and optionally the accessory mode). Analog signals use the USB 2.0 differential pairs (Dp and Dn for Right and Left) and the two side-band use pairs for Mic and GND. The presence of the audio accessory is signalled through the configuration channel and V CONN.

Alternate Mode. See also: An Alternate Mode dedicates some of the physical wires in a USB-C 3.1 cable for direct device-to-host transmission of alternate data protocols. The four high-speed lanes, two side-band pins, and (for dock, detachable device and permanent cable applications only) two USB 2.0 data pins and one configuration pin can be used for alternate mode transmission.

The modes are configured using vendor-defined messages (VDM) through the configuration channel. Specifications USB Type-C Cable and Connector Specification The USB Type-C Specification 1.0 was published by the (USB-IF) and was finalized in August 2014. It defines requirements for cables and connectors. USB 2.0 Type-C cables do not include wires for SuperSpeed or sideband use. V CONN must not traverse end-to-end through the cable. Some isolation method must be used. ^ There is only a single differential pair for non-SuperSpeed data in the cable, which is connected to A6 and A7.

Contacts B6 and B7 should not be present in the plug. ^ Wire colors for differential pairs are not mandated. Related USB-IF specifications USB Type-C Locking Connector Specification The USB Type-C Locking Connector Specification was published 2016-03-09. It defines the mechanical requirements for USB-C plug connectors and the guidelines for the USB-C receptacle mounting configuration to provide a standardized screw lock mechanism for USB-C connectors and cables. USB Type-C Port Controller Interface Specification The USB Type-C Port Controller Interface Specification was published 2017-10-01.

It defines a common interface from a USB-C Port Manager to a simple USB-C Port Controller. USB Type-C Authentication Specification Adopted as IEC specification:. IEC 62680-1-4:2018 (2918-04-10) 'Universal Serial Bus interfaces for data and power - Part 1-4: Common components - USB Type-C™ Authentication Specification' USB 2.0 Billboard Device Class specification USB 2.0 Billboard Device Class is defined to communicate the details of supported Alternate Modes to the computer host OS. It provides user readable strings with product description and user support information. Billboard messages can be used to identify incompatible connections made by users. They are not required to negotiate Alternate Modes and only appear when negotiation fails between the host (source) and device (sink). USB Audio Device Class 3.0 specification USB Audio Device Class 3.0 defines powered digital audio headsets with a USB-C plug.

The standard support the transfer of both digital and analog audio signals over the USB port. USB Power Delivery specification. See also: While it is not necessary for USB-C compliant devices to implement USB Power Delivery, for USB-C DRP/DRD (Dual-Role-Power/Data) ports, USB Power Delivery introduces commands for altering a port's power or data role after the roles have been established when a connection is made. USB 3.2 specification , released in September 2017, replaces the USB 3.1 standard. It preserves existing USB 3.1 SuperSpeed and SuperSpeed+ data modes and introduces two new SuperSpeed+ transfer modes over the USB-C connector using two-lane operation, with data rates of 10 and 20 Gbit/s (1250 and 2500 MB/s). Alternate Mode partner specifications As of 2016 four system-defined Alternate Mode partner specifications exist. Additionally, vendors may support proprietary modes for use in dock solutions.

Alternate Modes are optional; USB-C features and devices are not required to support any specific Alternate Mode. The USB Implementers Forum is working with its Alternate Mode partners to make sure that ports are properly labelled with respective logos. List of Alternate Mode partner specifications Logo Name Date Protocol Published in September 2014 Announced in November 2014 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 and 1.0 Announced in June 2015 (carries, and starting with Titan Ridge ) Announced in September 2016 Announced in July 2018 (not yet standardized). Table showing various protocols supported by USB-C. Other protocols like have been proposed. All Thunderbolt 3 controllers both support 'Thunderbolt Alternate Mode' and 'DisplayPort Alternate Mode'. Because Thunderbolt can encapsulate DisplayPort data, every Thunderbolt controller can either output DisplayPort signals directly over 'DisplayPort Alternative Mode' or encapsulated within Thunderbolt in 'Thunderbolt Alternate Mode'.

Low cost peripherals mostly connect via 'DisplayPort Alternate Mode' while some docking stations tunnel DisplayPort over Thunderbolt. The USB SuperSpeed protocol is similar to DisplayPort and PCIe/Thunderbolt, in using packetized data transmitted over differential lanes with embedded clock using comparable bit rates, so these Alternate Modes are easier to implement in the chipset. Alternate Mode hosts and sinks can be connected with either regular full-featured USB-C cables, or converter cables/adapters: USB 3.1 Type-C to Type-C full-featured cable DisplayPort, Mobile High-Definition Link (MHL), HDMI and Thunderbolt (20 Gbit/s, or 40 Gbit/s with cable length up to 0.5m) Alternate Mode USB-C ports can be interconnected with standard passive full-featured USB Type-C cables. These cables are only marked with standard 'trident' SuperSpeed USB logo (for Gen 1 cables) or the SuperSpeed+ USB 10 Gbit/s logo (for Gen 2 cables) on both ends. Cable length should be 2.0 m or less for Gen 1 and 1.0 m or less for Gen 2. Thunderbolt Type-C to Type-C Thunderbolt 3 (40 Gbit/s) Alternate Mode with cables longer than 0.5m requires active USB-C cables that are certified and electronically marked for high-speed Thunderbolt 3 transmission, similarly to high-power 5 A cables. These cables are marked with a Thunderbolt logo on both ends.

They do not support USB 3 Backwards compatibility, only USB 2 or Thunderbolt. Cables can be marked for both Thunderbolt and 5 A power delivery at the same time. USB 3.1 Type-C adapter cable (plug) or adapter (socket) These cables/adapters contain a valid DisplayPort, HDMI, or MHL plug/socket marked with the logo of the required Alternate Mode, and a USB-C plug with a 'trident' SuperSpeed 10 Gbit/s logo on the other end. Cable length should be 0.15 m or less. /adapters contain powered ICs to amplify/equalise the signal for extended length cables, or to perform active protocol conversion. The adapters for video Alt Modes may allow conversion from native video stream to other video interface standards (e.g., DisplayPort, HDMI, VGA or DVI).

Using full-featured USB-C cables for Alternate Mode connections provides some benefits. Alternate Mode does not employ USB 2.0 lanes and the configuration channel lane, so USB 2.0 and USB Power Delivery protocols are always available. In addition, DisplayPort and MHL Alternate Modes can transmit on one, two, or four SuperSpeed lanes, so two of the remaining lanes may be used to simultaneously transmit USB 3.1 data. USB 2.0 and USB Power Delivery are available at all times in a Type-C cable. USB 3.1 can be transmitted simultaneously when the video signal bandwidth requires two or fewer lanes. ^ Only available in Thunderbolt 3 DisplayPort mode.

Thunderbolt 3 40 Gbit/s Passive cables are only possible. See also: and USB-C devices An increasing number of motherboards, notebooks, tablet computers, smartphones, hard disk drives, and other devices released from 2014 onwards feature USB-C receptacles. Currently, DisplayPort is the most widely implemented alternate mode, and is used to provide video output on devices that do not have standard-size DisplayPort or HDMI ports, such as smartphones and laptops. A USB-C multiport adapter converts the device's native video stream to DisplayPort/HDMI/VGA, allowing it to be displayed on an external display, such as a television set or computer monitor. Examples of devices that support DisplayPort Alternate Mode over USB-C include:, /, /, /, /, etc.

Examples of devices that support high-power charging according to the specification include:, Dell Venue 10 Pro, X1, /, /, /, /, /, /Note 9,/, / etc. USB-C cables Many cables claiming to support USB-C are actually not compliant to the standard. Using these cables would have a potential consequence of damaging devices that they are connected to. There are reported cases of laptops being destroyed due to the use of non-compliant cables. Power issues Some non-compliant cables with a USB-C connector on one end and a legacy USB-A plug or Micro-B receptacle on the other end incorrectly terminate the Configuration Channel (CC) with a 10kΩ pullup to V BUS instead of the specification mandated 56kΩ pullup, causing a device connected to the cable to incorrectly determine the amount of power it is permitted to draw from the cable.

Cables with this issue may not work properly with certain products, including Apple and Google products, and may even damage power sources such as chargers, hubs, or PC USB ports. Compatibility with other fast charging technology In 2016, Benson Leung, an engineer at Google, pointed out that 2.0 and 3.0 technologies developed by are not compatible with the USB-C standard. Qualcomm responded that it is possible to make fast charge solutions fit the voltage demands of USB-C and that there are no reports of problems; however, it did not address the standard compliance issue at that time.

Later in the year, Qualcomm released Quick Charge 4 technology, which cited – as an advancement over previous generations – 'USB Type-C and USB PD compliant'. See also. References.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Diza from Not charging MacBook Pro 15-inch 2018 Bought this because it would allow me connect multiple devices to my MacBook Pro with one single USB-C cable, all while charging my laptop. I am able to connect everything to my laptop, but not able to charge it. Can't seem to find a driver that I need to install. Sometimes it says it's charging, but as of late it's no longer charging.

Other than that, it's easy to use and add's great accessibility to my MacBook with one single USB-C cable. Now if only I can get this to charge my MacBook.
