Charging docks supply power and do not include a host device or data pins, allowing any capable USB device to charge or operate from a standard USB cable. Charging cables provide power connections, but not data. In a charge-only cable, the data wires are shorted at the device end, otherwise, the device may reject the charger as unsuitable.
USB-C, or USB Type-C, is a 24-pin, reversible connector (not a protocol) that supersedes previous USB connectors and can carry audio, video, and other data, to connect to monitors or external drives. It can also provide and receive power, to power, e.g., a laptop or a mobile phone.
Haptic Touch is a software feature on the iPhone XR (but not the iPhone XS) and later iPhone models that serves to replace the functionality that 3D touch had. The touchscreen no longer has a pressure sensitive layer, so the software waits for a long-press to activate certain features, instead of a force press.
Newer power adapters that are lightweight and are not warm to the touch may use less than one watt. Standby power consumption can be reduced by unplugging or totally switching off, if possible, devices with a standby mode not currently in use; if several devices are used together or only when a room is occupied, they can be connected to a ...
A touchscreen (or touch screen) is a type of display that can detect touch input from a user. It consists of both an input device (a touch panel) and an output device (a visual display). The touch panel is typically layered on the top of the electronic visual display of a device.
After previous connectors were deprecated in USB 3.2, the new USB-C plug has become a new standard for charging (and data transfer) over USB. [ 13 ] In the European Union, the Radio Equipment Directive 2021/0291 , requires new smartphones to use USB-C as a universal charger by the end of 2024, and laptops by 2026.
A North American power strip with two USB power ports that includes a built in surge protector. A power strip (also known as a multi-socket, power board and many other variations [a]) is a block of electrical sockets that attaches to the end of a flexible cable (typically with a mains plug on the other end), allowing multiple electrical devices to be powered from a single electrical socket.
In computing, multi-touch is technology which enables a touchpad or touchscreen to recognize more than one [7] [8] or more than two [9] points of contact with the surface. Apple popularized the term "multi-touch" in 2007 with which it implemented additional functionality, such as pinch to zoom or to activate certain subroutines attached to predefined gestures.
