Product Overview

This connector belongs to the UC22 series, which is optimized for high-performance charging and USB 2.0 data transmission applications. The 16-pin configuration provides the necessary signals for Power Delivery (PD) and standard data transfer while simplifying the PCB layout compared to 24-pin versions. The inclusion of locating posts makes it an ideal choice for automated assembly lines, as they prevent the part from shifting during the reflow soldering process.
