60W power-only USB Type C receptacle features vertical orientation

CUI Devices’ Interconnect Group announces the continued expansion of its power-only USB Type C receptacle line with the introduction of a vertically-oriented model. 

The UJC-VP-3-SMT-TR joins the existing 60 W UJC-HP-3-SMT-TR and 100 W UJC-HP-G-SMT-TR, which both feature horizontal, surface-mount packages. 

By removing the data transfer pins, these USB Type C receptacles are a more cost-effective solution for designs where charging or power is the sole function.

Housed in a vertical, surface mount package, the UJC-VP-3-SMT-TR is a 6-pin USB Type C receptacle that can deliver up to 60W of power with a 3A current rating and 20Vdc voltage rating. This vertical mount power-only USB Type C model is compatible with any standard USB Type C plug, taking the accessibility and simplified design integration of the universal and widely adopted Type C connection and applying it to power-only applications.

The UJCVP-3-SMT-TR further offers high reliability up to 10,000 mating cycles, reflow solder compatibility, and an operating temperature range from -25 to 85°C.
