In December 2013, the USB 3.0 promotion team has released renderings of the next generation USB Type-C connector , and then it has been ready for mass production starting from August 2014. The highlights of the new interface are the slimmer design, faster transmission speeds (up to 10Gbps) and stronger power transmission (up to 100W). The biggest feature of the double-sided pluggable interface of
Type-Ch is that it supports double-sided insertion of USB interface, which officially solves the global problem of "USB can never be plugged in accurately", and plug in the front and back sides at will. At the same time, the USB data cable used with it must also be thinner and lighter. What is the interface of
type-c
Type-C is a connection interface of the USB interface. It can be inserted regardless of front and back. Its size is about 8.3mm×2.5mm. Like other interfaces, it supports USB standard charging, data transmission, display and output functions.
Type-C interface is a relatively new type of interface and is expected to become popular soon. For example, the new version of MacBook and LeTV mobile phones are all of this interface.

Type-C Appearance Features
1. No front and back
Like Apple's Lightning interface, the front and back of the USB-Ch port are the same. That is to say, no matter how you plug in this port, it is correct. Users don't have to worry about the positive and negative problems caused by traditional USB ports.
Type-C main functions
1. Fast
Theoretically, the maximum transmission rate of the USB-C port is 10Gb per second. But Apple says the USB-C port of the new MacBook has a maximum transfer rate of 5Gbps. The maximum output voltage is 20 volts, which can speed up charging time. The USB-A model has so far the ultimate transmission rate is 5Gbps and the output voltage is 5V.
2.Multi-faced hand
The USB-C port of the new MacBook can transmit data, charge, and also serve as a video output port to link external display devices. The only question is how Apple can satisfy users who want to do these three things at the same time.
3. Bidirectional
is not like the old USB port, power can only be transmitted in one direction. The power transmission of USB-C port is bidirectional, which means it can have two ways to send power. Therefore, users can not only use laptops to charge their mobile devices, but also use other devices or mobile power to charge their laptops.
4. Backward compatible
USB-C can be compatible with the old USB standard, but users need to purchase an additional adapter to complete compatibility. Apple said that not only will Apple officially sell adapters, but third-party companies can also authorize production. What is the difference between
type-c and ordinary interfaces
Compared with traditional interfaces, type-c mainly includes and several highlights
