Product Information

The first Power Delivery specification defined six fixed power profiles for the power sources. PD-aware devices implement a flexible power management scheme by interfacing with the power source through a bidirectional data channel and requesting a certain level of electrical power, variable up to 5A and 20V depending on supported profile. The power configuration protocol can use BMC coding over the CC wire if one is present, or a 24MHz BFSK-coded transmission channel on the V BUS line.

Where are USB cables used?

Printers: Many printers, both consumer and professional grade, use USB Type B connectors to connect to computers for data transfer and control. Many USB bridge / data transfer cables are still USB 2.0, but there are also a number of USB 3.0 transfer cables. Despite USB 3.0 being 10 times faster than USB 2.0, USB 3.0 transfer cables are only 2 - 3 times faster given their design.
