USB Type-C 6-Pin Connector Key Features

Compact 6-Pin Design

Simplified 6-pin configuration (GND, VBUS, CC1, CC2) provides essential USB 2.0 data and power connections, reducing cost and PCB complexity compared to full 24-pin USB-C connectors.

SMT Mounting

Surface Mount Technology compatible design enables automated pick-and-place assembly, improving production efficiency and reducing manufacturing costs for high-volume applications.

Low 6.5mm Profile

The 6.5mm height profile is optimized for space-constrained applications, allowing thinner device enclosures while maintaining reliable USB Type-C connectivity.

Shielded Construction

Nickel-plated stainless steel shell provides excellent EMI shielding and mechanical durability, ensuring signal integrity and withstanding repeated mating cycles.

Gold-Plated Contacts

Phosphor bronze contacts with gold plating over nickel ensure corrosion resistance, low contact resistance (40mΩ max), and reliable signal transmission over the connector lifetime.

USB Type-C Compliant

Meets USB Type-C mechanical interface specifications with CC1/CC2 configuration channel pins, enabling proper device detection and orientation for reversible plug insertion.

Wide Temperature Range

-25°C to +85°C operating temperature range with UL94V-0 flame-retardant housing ensures reliable performance in consumer and industrial environments.

RoHS & UL Compliant

Manufactured in compliance with RoHS directives and UL94V-0 flammability standards, meeting global environmental and safety requirements for electronic components.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between 6-pin and 24-pin USB Type-C connectors?

A: A 6-pin USB Type-C connector provides only the essential pins (GND, VBUS, CC1, CC2) for USB 2.0 data transfer and basic power delivery, while a 24-pin connector supports full USB 3.1/3.2 SuperSpeed data, alternate modes, and higher power delivery. The 6-pin version is more cost-effective for applications that only need USB 2.0 functionality.

Q: What does the “H6.5mm” specification mean?

A: H6.5mm refers to the profile height of the connector when mounted on the PCB. This is the vertical distance from the board surface to the top of the connector, which determines the minimum enclosure thickness required for the USB-C port.

Q: Is this connector reversible?

A: Yes, the USB Type-C interface is designed for reversible plug insertion. The CC1 and CC2 configuration channel pins enable the connector to detect plug orientation and adjust accordingly, allowing the cable to be inserted either way.

Q: What is the maximum current rating for the VBUS pins?

A: The UC31-1E1H1A103-0HR-30 supports up to 3A on the VBUS pins, which is sufficient for standard USB 2.0 power delivery at 5V (up to 15W). For higher power applications requiring USB Power Delivery, a full 24-pin USB-C connector may be required.

Q: What mounting method does this connector use?

A: This connector uses Surface Mount Technology (SMT), meaning it is soldered directly onto the PCB surface using surface mount pads. This enables automated pick-and-place assembly and is ideal for high-volume manufacturing.

Q: Can this connector be used in industrial environments?

A: Yes, the UC31-1E1H1A103-0HR-30 operates from -25°C to +85°C and features UL94V-0 flame-retardant housing and a shielded stainless steel shell, making it suitable for most industrial applications within the specified temperature range.
