What is USB-C and USB-C Power Delivery (PD)?

The proliferation of USB-C is revolutionizing the way smart devices are charged. Major smartphone and laptop manufacturers have adopted the USB Type-C connector. Thus, charging between different devices can now be easily shared. In other words, it is now possible to charge a smartphone with a laptop charger and vice versa.

How Power is Measured
Power (P) is a measure of how quickly electricity is transmitted. It is calculated by the relationship between current (I) and voltage (V). in USB power delivery, USB 3.1 devices provide a minimum of 500mA at a minimum of 5 volts. using a USB 3.1 port increases this current to 900mA. However, USB Type-C ports can be set to 1.5A or 3.0A in fast charge mode, providing up to 15W of power. In addition, USB Power Delivery is available for USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports. and cables can provide up to 5A of current and adjustable power up to 100W.

Layers of Power Measurement Methodology

Flexibility of PD
One of the most interesting aspects of PD is that the direction of power supply is not fixed. That is, use a portable power bank to charge your laptop. Additionally, you can charge your cell phone from your laptop or your Bluetooth headset from your cell phone.

PD Safety and Control
PD charging is designed to eliminate safety concerns. It also provides a flexible and smart way to manage system-wide power. Thus, it also offers low power compatibility. Thus, the headset can be charged with a laptop charger.

USB Power Delivery compatible accessories
USB Power Delivery-enabled accessories are designed for large electronic devices such as hard drives, printers, displays, and notebooks that require high power; PD adapters and controllers support high-power power delivery. They also support inverted plug and cable orientation for USB-C connectors.
