Cost effective Type C connector for USB3.2 power delivery
CUI Devices Interconnect Group has added a range of USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type C models to its line of USB connectors.
The UJ32 family of Type C connectors provide data transfer speeds up to 20 Gbit/s as a more cost-effective option for designs that do not require the full capabilities of the USB4 40 Gbit/s standard. The models also deliver power capabilities up to 100 W with 20 V voltage ratings and 5 A current ratings for faster power charging.
With the EU set to make USB Type C the unified charger for mobile devices in 2024 and laptops in 2026, CUI Devices’ USB Type C connectors are aimed at keeping future designs in compliance.
Housed in surface mount or mid mount SMT packages with horizontal or vertical orientations, CUI Devices’ USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type C connectors feature gold flash contacts and operating temperature ranges from -40 to 85°C. These USB Type C receptacles are reflow solder compatible with high reliability ratings up to 10,000 mating cycles. The UJ32-C-H-G-SMT-TR-68 also carries an IP68 rating for applications dealing with harsh environments.
The UJ32 models are available immediately with prices starting at $1.43 per unit at 250 pieces through distribution.
