Design requirements for waterproof USB Type-C connectors?

Currently, USB Type-C connectors with IPX8 waterproofing have become the new standard for a wide range of products as they offer high reliability, faster charging and faster data transfer. While MicroUSB has a proven history of providing connectivity for a wide range of products, USBType-C is the connector of the future.

First, the signal integrity requirements of the higher the signal integrity is equivalent to the faster the data rate, so the choice of USBType-C connector products with signal integrity for the best policy. In some cases, connector manufacturers can provide 10Gbps throughput based on experience with previous data products. Second, the power requirements because the USBType-C connector products in 5A can transmit up to 100W of power, while the MicroUSB system in 5A can transmit 10W. Therefore, the USBType-C connector products are more rapid charging, the power requirements are also large. Third, environmental protection requirements In order to provide users with the required environmental protection, waterproof USBC-type connectors need to have rubber seals and seamless housings to be waterproof, and these connectors should be IPX8 waterproof (according to IEC60529) and should be durable enough for thousands of plugs and unplugs. Often the addition of circuit board retention helps to achieve a robust design for waterproof USB Type-C connectors and provides high reliability and quality.
