USB Type-C™ Overview



USB Type-C™ is the latest specification for a 24-pin reversible-plug connector for USB devices and USB cabling published by the USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF), which brings together all of the desired features of a unified connector, effectively merging data, audio, video, and power into one interface.

Its robustness, flexibility, and ease of use provide unprecedented opportunities for end-users, designers, and manufacturers alike.

Analogix’s Mobile HD product family supports the DisplayPort™ over USB-C™ protocol (formally known as the DisplayPort Alt Mode™), USB data, and USB Power Delivery through fully integrated, single-chip, low cost solutions for mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets, and notebooks.
