With the development of technology, on some new cars recently, careful friends may have noticed that the familiar USB interface has been replaced by the type-C interface. Some cars may be more user-friendly, with USB and type-C interfaces for passengers to freely choose from. But some only have the type-c interface. Some new car owners may not yet know the usage of C-type cars in their cars. Today, the editor will take a detailed look at it.

Similar to Apple's lightning interface, the type-c interface does not have directional requirements, meaning that the front and rear plugins can basically pair, which greatly improves the usability of the interface and does not need to worry about being embarrassed if it cannot be inserted or inserted backwards. If the phone or USB drive you are using is not a Type-C interface, you can purchase a data cable or adapter for that type of interface online.

Characteristics of C-type interface

1. Use type-c to directly connect your phone and network cable to access the internet. Whether playing games or watching movies, it can bring more enjoyable usage effects than WiFi.

2. Users can use type-c to support fast charging, which reduces device charging time by 2-4 times compared to the past.

3. The type-c interface can also facilitate mutual recognition between vehicles and machines, with faster data transmission speed and the ability to transmit audio and video signals. It can be extended to various audio and video output interfaces, such as HDMI, DVI, VGA interfaces, and even achieve 4K resolution expansion.

The size of the type-c interface is very small, less than half the size of the previous USB interface, which can save space and make room for other devices and circuits. In daily life, the type-c interface not only has simple charging and data transmission functions, but also supports audio and video transmission functions. It can navigate, make and receive calls, listen to music, watch movies, and use a voice assistant to control the car. Some smartphone headphones use the same type-c interface as the charging interface.

Kind reminder: It is recommended to use the original data cable that comes with your phone, as the original data cable has data transmission function. Many later purchased miscellaneous data cables only have charging function and no data transmission function, so there is no response when connecting your phone and car with this type of data cable. If you don't have a type-C interface in your car, you can buy an adapter and choose a genuine large brand. Poor quality adapters may not have stable connections.

More introduction to automotive interfaces: 1. OBD interface: OBD is a detection system extended for automotive fault diagnosis, capable of real-time monitoring of systems and components such as the engine, catalytic converter, particle trap, oxygen sensor, emission control system, fuel system, EGR, etc. 2. ISOFIX interface: ISOFIX interface is a fixed device of International Organization for Standardization. It is a new standard for installing child seats in cars, which is being accepted by many car manufacturers to make the installation of child seats fast and simple.
