SMK Develops USB Type-C™ PCB Mount Receptacles
Having the Industry’s Shortest-level Depth of 7.6mm

   SMK Corporation has developed two types of right angle PCB mount receptacles ―On Board Type/Mid Mount Type― which are compatible with USB Type-C™ standard*.
   As the trend toward smaller products is growing, the miniaturization of installed connectors is also required. SMK’s new USB receptacles have the industry’s shortest-level depth of only 7.6mm.
   Simultaneously, enhanced durability against plug twisting has achieved by the double-shell structure.
   Also, the SMK’s unique structure ensures a precise coplanarity of 0.08mm (max.), contributing to reliable mounting.
   The design of outer shell for mounting is customizable in accordance with the customer’s request.
