Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) 

• Q: What is the difference between UC22-1E1H1A103-0HR-01 and the UC22-4E1H1A103-0HR-02?
• A: The primary difference lies in the terminal configuration: the UC22-1E1H1A103-0HR-01 uses a 1E1H1A (1 Extended + 1 High + 1 A-Type) pin layout, while the UC22-4E1H1A103-0HR-02 uses a 4E1H1A (4 Extended + 1 High + 1 A-Type) configuration. Both are 16-pin USB Type-C female SMT receptacle connectors with 5.9mm height, but the 4E version provides more extended pin capability for applications requiring additional power or signal routing flexibility. Please consult the individual product drawings for specific pinout differences.
• Q: Is this USB Type C Socket SMT Integrated Shell 16 Pin connector compatible with USB 3.1 Gen 1/Gen 2 data rates?
• A: The UC22-1E1H1A103-0HR-01 is a 16-pin configuration primarily supporting USB 2.0 (480 Mbps) data rates. While the USB Type-C mechanical interface is physically compatible with USB 3.x and USB4 cables, achieving SuperSpeed data rates requires a 24-pin full-featured USB Type-C connector. For USB 3.2 or USB4 applications, please contact VITALCONN for the appropriate 24-pin Type-C connector recommendations.
• Q: What reflow soldering profile is recommended for the UC22-1E1H1A103-0HR-01?
• A: The connector is compatible with standard lead-free reflow soldering profiles per JEDEC J-STD-020. The recommended peak reflow temperature is 260°C maximum, with a time above liquidus (TAL) of 60-90 seconds. The high-temperature thermoplastic housing and nickel-plated steel shell are designed to withstand these reflow conditions without deformation. Always follow the specific land pattern and stencil design recommendations provided in the product drawing FCN: F9.
