USB Type-C 6 Pin Female Socket: Optimized for Power-Only Applications
Efficient, Durable, and Cost-Effective Charging Solution
The 6-Pin USB Type-C Female Connector is a specialized version of the Type-C interface, stripped of complex data pins to provide a streamlined, high-reliability charging port. It is the ideal choice for engineers designing devices that require power delivery without the need for high-speed data transmission.
Why Choose a 6-Pin USB-C over 16/24-Pin?
-
Lower BOM Cost: Significantly more affordable than full-featured data connectors.
-
Simplified PCB Layout: Easier to route, especially on 2-layer or 4-layer boards.
-
Robust Durability: With fewer pins to potentially fail, the 6-pin structure is inherently more rugged for consumer use.

Engineering Advantages: Precision & Performance
1. SMT Lead-Free Compatibility
Our 6-pin Type-C connectors are built with LCP (Liquid Crystal Polymer). This high-grade plastic ensures the connector maintains its dimensional integrity during Lead-Free Reflow Soldering (peak temperatures of 260°C), preventing warping or pin misalignment.
2. Enhanced Mechanical Stability
Designed with reinforced mounting tabs (Shell Legs), Jiatel’s 6-pin socket is engineered to withstand up to 35N of insertion force. This makes it perfect for high-usage consumer electronics where the port is frequently plugged and unplugged.
3. Optimized for 5V-12V Charging
By utilizing high-conductivity C5191 phosphor bronze contacts, this connector maintains a low contact resistance (<30mΩ), ensuring safe and efficient charging for battery-powered devices.
