Introduces USB Billboard device class to provide error notifications for Alternate Modes.Supports other protocols like DisplayPort and Thunderbolt over USB Type-C.Can switch power roles between sourcing and sinking power.Can switch USB roles to support a USB host or device.
Windows 10 introduces native support for those features. The USB Type-C connector, introduced by the USB-IF, defined in the USB 3.1 specification, addresses those limitations. For example, if a mobile device wants to connect to a peripheral, the device must act as the host and deliver power to the connected device. The traditional configuration limits some scenarios. The host is the power source provider and the function consumes power from the host. By using those connectors, you can only connect a host to a function never a host to another host or a function to another function. The USB A connector always plugs in to the host side and the USB B connector connects the function side, which is a device (phone) or peripheral (mouse, keyboard). This topic is intended for OEMs who want to build a Windows 10 system with USB Type-C connector and want to leverage OS features that allow for faster charging, power delivery, dual role, alternate modes, and error notifications through Billboard devices.Ī traditional USB connection uses a cable with a USB A and USB B connector on each end.
