USB4 Officially Released TYPE-C

In early March 2019, the official USB-IF world organization announced the official release of the next generation of USB4 (note that it is not USB 4.0). Now, the USB4 standard specification is officially announced! USB is definitely the most widely used interface in the history of science and technology. It has undergone four versions of upgrades, from USB 1.0 to the current USB4. Change. USB4 introduced the Thunderbolt lightning protocol specification that Intel had previously donated to the USB promotion organization. The two-lane operation doubled the transmission bandwidth to 40Gbps, and the transmission rate was exactly the same as Thunderbolt 3. Of course, to obtain such a transmission bandwidth, a new, certified data cable is required. While introducing the new underlying protocol, USB4 still maintains good compatibility, and is backward compatible with USB 3.2 / 3.1 / 3.0, Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 3 devices and data cables, and can still be used on the USB4 interface. USB4 will only have a USB Type-C interface (it is also the interface of Thunderbolt 3), and supports multiple data and display protocols, including DisplayPort, which can make full use of high-speed bandwidth and support USB PD power supply. At present, the USB-IF World Organization has not given a clear date for when USB4 devices will be available. Obviously, it is still waiting for manufacturers to follow up. After all, USB 3.2 (20Gbps) is not mature yet. It can be expected that the popularity of USB4 will certainly be a great progress in the era of big data transmission. Kaichuan will also follow up on the latest USB4 development to meet the latest technical standards of buyers.

USB Type C Cable Technology

At present, the common electronic devices that support USB type C interface include Nokia N1 tablet, LETV mobile phone and apple MacBook. Please note that these USB type A / B / C / mini / micro ports do not all have these standards in every generation of USB. There is no USB type C interface in the era of USB 1.0 / USB 2.0. In the era of smart phones, we use the most micro USB interface based on USB 2.0, which is the USB data cable interface of mobile phones. In the development of the new generation of USB, the most promising is the USB type C standard. As apple takes the lead in adopting it, more and more manufacturers are expected to follow up. The latest USB 3.1 supports three interfaces, USB type A, USB type B and the latest USB type-c. In other words, the type-C interface can be compatible with traditional USB devices, and the USB 3.1 protocol supports the transmission speed of 10Gbps per second. Fast is just one aspect. Leeco mobile is the first mobile phone in China to use type-C interface, and now leeco is going bankrupt. Hongmi, oppo and vivo, which insist on using micro USB, are selling well. It seems that the road of type-C is not smooth, but it still cannot stop the upsurge of using type-C for new flagship and non flagship computers. According to the physical structure of the interface, the type-C is symmetrical from top to bottom, and can be inserted forward and backward. This is similar to Apple's lighting interface and lightning interface. The advantage of this is that it is more comfortable to use, longer to use, and it is not easy to break the interface and cause damage by violent anti plug. Usbtypea / B / C Basics There is another important reason for the use of type-C in the latest mobile phones, which is fast charging. Type-C supports 100W power transmission, which makes fast charging on mobile phones a reality. In the era when smart phones need to use the power bank, fast charging is undoubtedly the gospel to save the mobile phone party, and mobile phone manufacturers will certainly not miss this opportunity to improve the experience of mobile phones. The type-C also has a capability that the traditional micro USB interface cannot match. It can be used as signal source transmission, that is to say, the well-known HDMI, DVI and other signals can be compatible, even compatible with lightning interface and 4K display. Although type-C is good, its cost is more expensive than traditional USB interface, which leads to many flagship computers using type-C interface. With the gradual decrease of cost, more and more non flagship computers also use the type-C interface, and vivo's latest nex finally gives up the micro USB interface, which determines that the future is the world of type-c.
