USB C plug breakout prototype testing

We finally got our USB C plug breakout prototypes put together and now its time to test! of course we love to use our own breakouts when verifying functionality so here we're using our switchable USB adapter to check functionality: power, ground, D+ and D-. if a device enumerates we know its good! we tested the CC line by plugging it into an apple wall adapter: they're picky about having a 5.1K resistor on the CC pin. that worked too - so now we're good to book final PCBs.

Tamagotchi Uni USB-C Charging Port is Located at the Bottom

The Tamagotchi Uni will be the first Tamagotchi to feature USB-C, in fact it’s predecessor, the Tamagotchi Smart utilized micro USB. Tamagotchi Uni will feature the latest USB standard, and we love it. This means that your existing USB-C chargers will be able to charge the Tamagotchi Uni, both the power bricks, and USB-C cables. This provides a world of possibilities as to what can charge your Tamagotchi Uni!

Ano Shimizu, the newest member of the Tama Family who was presented the title last week at the 2023 Tokyo Toy Show posted an Instagram story of their Tamagotchi Uni charging. We we then noticed that Bandai moved the charging port on the Tamagotchi Uni!

The Tamagotchi Smart featured a micro USB port on the left side of the device which had a rubber cover to seal the port shut when it was not being charged. Looks like Bandai has switched it up and moved the charging port to the bottom on the Tamagotchi Uni. This does seem to make more sense, but it’s important to call out that you won’t be able to charge the Tamagotchi Uni when it’s in the wristband.

USB A to USB C Adapter For Mac Pro And Mac Studio Models

Mac Pro and Mac Studio

Intelligent, quick, and interoperable gadgets are required more than ever as technology advances. Apple’s latest Mac Pro and Mac Studio models continue its innovation. Speculation in the IT sector suggests a major hardware change for these new versions. If this is implemented, the widely used USB A port may be replaced with USB-C connections, marking the end of an era. This article will discuss the effects of this move on customers, Mac devices, and its likely occurrence.

The Development of USB Ports: A Synopsis

Before discussing the next generation of Mac models, it’s important to understand how USB ports have changed our computing experience. Computers have used USB A, the rectangular connection, for almost 20 years. This reliable connection allows users to connect external storage devices, keyboards, and mice. But as technology developed, so did the demand for better power supply and quicker data transmission rates.

Now introduce USB-C. In contrast to its forerunners, USB-C boasts a more condensed form factor, quicker data transfer rates, improved power supply capabilities, and compatibility with many protocols including Thunderbolt 3 and 4K video output. With time, this all-in-one solution has replaced USB A as the new standard in contemporary electronics.

USB A to USB C

Reasons Apple May Switch from USB-A to USB-C

It is likely, if not certain, that the next Mac Pro and Mac Studio models will switch from USB A to USB-C. Apple would take this change into consideration for a number of strong reasons:

Adopting an International Standard: Apple’s iPad Pro and MacBook Pro employ USB-C, which is becoming the global standard. Apple’s high-performance Mac Pro and Mac Studio would be more consistent with the ecosystem if they used USB-C.

Improved Versatility and Performance: USB-C is more than a connector it enhances device capability and mobility. Users may use Thunderbolt 3’s 40 Gbps data transfer rates with USB-C to quickly transfer large files or backup data. USB-C also improves power transfer, allowing users to charge devices quicker. These improvements would be priceless for professionals who depend on the Mac Pro and Mac Studio for resource-intensive jobs like software development, video editing, and 3D rendering.

Compact and Discreet Design: Compact size is one of USB-C’s most prominent benefits. Apple could be able to lower the overall size of the Mac Pro and Mac Studio or free up space for new features by switching out the bigger USB A ports with USB-C ones. This modification would maintain or perhaps enhance the functioning of existing gadgets while giving them a sleeker, more contemporary appearance.

Investing in the Mac lineup’s future: It is essential for devices to be compatible with new standards as technology develops further. Apple could future-proof the Mac Pro and Mac Studio and make sure they are useful and functioning for many years to come by fully embracing USB-C. In addition to promoting the production of additional USB-C compatible products by peripheral manufacturers, this action would accelerate the uptake of this adaptable interface.

What to Expect from the Impact on Users

Although there are many advantages to switching from USB A to USB-C, it’s important to think about how owners of the future Mac Pro and Mac Studio models would be affected. The following are some possible ramifications:

Issues with Compatibility and Adapters

The switch to USB-C may require many users to utilize adapters or buy new devices, particularly those who have invested in USB-A peripherals. Even while USB-C may be used with USB-A devices by using adapters, some users may find this extra cost and difficulty to be a disadvantage. Nonetheless, the need for adapters is anticipated to decrease over time as the industry transitions to USB-C as the standard.

Enhanced Efficiency of Workflow

The transition to USB-C might greatly increase workflow productivity for professionals who need fast data transfers and flexible connecting choices. One USB-C connection may be used to connect numerous devices, charge them concurrently, and transmit data, which streamlines user interface and minimizes cable clutter.

Better Interoperability with Devices

The Mac Pro and Mac Studio’s USB-C support should improve device compatibility. As more manufacturers construct USB-C devices, users will have more options for displays and external hard drives. As USB-C peripherals grow more popular, this greater compatibility may also lead to a decrease in price.

A First Step Towards a Portless Future?

Apple has a track record of pushing technological limits and often setting new industry norms. The Mac Pro and Mac Studio’s switch to USB-C may be a sign of things to come a more significant change that may eventually lead to entirely portless gadgets. Although this may seem unrealistic, Apple’s dedication to wireless technology and its ongoing innovation indicate that it may become a reality in the future.

Conclusion

An essential development in Apple’s hardware design is the probable switch from USB-A to USB-C connectors in the next Mac Pro and Mac Studio models. Adopting USB-C is a reasonable move that provides many advantages, from greater performance and adaptability to improved design and future-proofing, as the tech industry continues to evolve. The long-term benefits of USB-C are evident, even if customers used to USB-A may find this switch difficult. It’s certain that USB-C is going to become the norm in computing as we look to the future, and Apple is once again setting the bar.

Sunken USB Type C breakout 🔌🛠️🧩

Folks love our standard USB Type C breakout (https://www.adafruit.com/search?q=usb+type+c+breakout) - and we recently got a request to carry a 'sunken' Type C breakout - what's that mean? It looks like this! instead of sitting above the PCB the connector sits in the midline for a svelte look. this connector got our pick because it has four burly THM tabs to keep the connector from cracking at the contact pads.

I bought a ugreen 3.5mm to usb-c adapter cable. It came in a nice box, as products tend to do, but it also came with a little 2x1" booklet of instructions in a dozen languages.

Its... an adapter cable. You plug one kind of cable (the one matching the shape) in one end and plug the other cable (matching the other shape) in. Success. You have done it. Must we involve the tiniest tree branch by pulping it into instructions?

Im now worried that I appear more upset about this than I really am. I'm more upset about the huge non-recyclable plastic thing that held the adapter in the recyclable box. Why'd you gotta use unrecyclable plastic? Plus add in instructions?
