USB Type-C: The Power Tool for Next-Generation Electronics (.PDF Download)

    Feb. 12, 2016

    Let’s face it, a new revision to an old standard isn't usually cause for wild celebration. But champagne corks were popping in August 2014 when it was announced that the USB Type-C connector standard was finalized. The new document took its place alongside its older siblings—the USB 3.1 interface specification and the USB Power Delivery specification (USB PD). Together they form a future roadmap for wired serial communications, and promise an exciting future for low-voltage power distribution, too...
