60 W Power-Only USB Type C Receptacle Features Vertical Orientation

LAKE OSWEGO, Ore. — July 13, 2021 — CUI Devices’ Interconnect Group today announced the continued expansion of their 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 60 W of power with a 3 A current rating and 20 Vdc 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 UJC-VP-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.

The UJC-VP-3-SMT-TR is available immediately with prices starting at $0.40 per unit at 1000 pieces through distribution. Please contact CUI Devices for OEM pricing.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
