When it comes to Micro USB, everyone is familiar with it. In the past few years, even now some mobile phones have Micro USB ports. This interface standard was proposed in 2007 by OMTP, composed of Nokia , Motorola , Sony Europa, Samsung and LG.
It is a bit exaggerated to say that this move has certain historical significance and ended the different charging interfaces of major mobile phone manufacturers at that time. You should know that before this, the charging interface was a variety of round sockets, Mini USB and other interfaces. It was impossible to use someone else's charger to charge it.
Of course, this interface also has great limitations. The most sensible charging must be divided into front and back sides, and the transmission speed and charging speed are not satisfactory.
In August 2014, the USB-IF organization released a new generation of USB standard interface, Type-Ch interface. has quickly become popular in tablets, laptops, mobile phones and other devices in just a few years. Compared with the Mirco USB interface, the benefits of the Type-C interface are obvious.
charging can be plugged in front and back, which should be the most intuitive feeling of the Type-C interface. In the Mirco USB era, let’s first look at whether the positive and negative is right or wrong when charging is not right. It’s okay during the day and when the light is not good at night, charging is simply a test of operation.
Type-C interface, whether you are on the front or the back, no matter whether the light is bad or bright, you can plug it directly, and the charging experience has been greatly improved.
also has advantages in transmission speed. There are three interface standards for USB 3.1, namely USB Type A
USB Type B and USB Type-C. It uses USB 3.1 standard Type-C, with a maximum transmission speed of 10Gbit/s, which is much faster than USB 2.0's 480Mb/s. Micro USB is only USB 2.0, a portable version of the standard.
uses USB 3.1 standard Type-C, which is definitely faster than Mirco USB in terms of transmission speed. It should be noted that USB 3.1 is not equivalent to Type-C, and Type-C is also not equivalent to USB 3.1 Type-C interface that is compatible with USB 2.0, 3.0, and 3.1 standards. Even if you use the Type-C interface, it is possible that your phone uses the USB 2.0 standard Type-C interface. Most mobile phones on the market use the Type-C interface. Most of the phones are USB 2.0 standard. If you have potential, the manufacturer can't help it. In terms of charging speed of
, Type-C also has innate advantages. The maximum power supply of Type-C can reach 100W. How fast is this numerical charging? The most charging power of mobile phones is that the super flash charging of OPPO is 50W The maximum output power of Huawei is 40W. It can almost charge the phone's battery in more than half an hour. Fast charging is nothing more than increasing the voltage or current. But this requires the support of the interface. The output voltage and current of Type-C are increased, so charging is naturally faster.
summary
Type-C has many advantages, but today in 2018, the Type-C interface has not been fully popular. Some newly released products of some manufacturers still use Mirco USB interface. Do you want to say that you want to "cultural revival"?
However, according to foreign media Digitimes, Taiwan’s supply chain is expected to drop by more than 20% or more by 2019, so manufacturers should not be reluctant to spend this little money and quickly make Type-C popular.
