24 Pin USB-C Connector Female SMT (USB-TC24-F25)
24 Pin USB-C Connector Female SMT — Product Overview
The 24 Pin USB-C Connector Female SMT (USB-TC24-F25) is a USB Type-C female receptacle for compact, high-speed devices. It uses the full 24-pin Type-C layout, so it carries USB4 (also written USB 4.0) data at up to 40Gbps, USB Power Delivery charging, reversible plug-in, CC lines and sideband signals through one port.
The horizontal SMT design suits automated PCB assembly and slim products. With a 0.47mm contact pitch and an 8.7mm body length, it fits laptops, docking stations, tablets, chargers and other space-limited designs.
The connector is rated for 5A at 20V DC (up to 100W) and more than 10,000 mating cycles, with an operating range of -25°C to +85°C. It ships in tape & reel or tray. For pin assignment, see our USB-C female connector pinout guide. For the official standards, see the USB Type-C specification and USB Power Delivery from USB-IF.

Key Features of the 24 Pin USB-C Connector Female SMT
Design and assembly notes
Choosing a connector is not only about the headline speed. For a USB4 design, check the full path from the host controller to the receptacle, including the cable, PCB stack-up and AC coupling where required. The 24 Pin USB-C Connector Female SMT gives the board a full 24-pin Type-C interface in a horizontal SMT package, but the final link must be planned as a system. Use the 2D/3D drawing to confirm the pad layout, shell keep-out and board-edge position before panelization.
For SMT assembly, the connector is supplied in tape & reel or tray. Confirm the pick-and-place nozzle, reflow profile and support under the body with your assembly house. Because the port sits at the board edge, the housing and enclosure opening should be checked together with the connector drawing. If the port will see frequent cable side-load, add mechanical support in the enclosure rather than relying on solder joints alone.
On the electrical side, the 5A / 20V DC rating supports USB PD designs up to 100W. Keep VBUS and ground paths short and wide, place protection where your PD controller requires it, and follow the pinout for CC and SBU routing. The connector is rated for -25°C to +85°C, so the end product thermal design should keep the port within that published range under use.
Applications of the USB-C Female SMT Connector
In docking stations and hubs, the port often faces repeated cable insertion, so the 10,000 mating cycle rating and horizontal SMT body are useful starting points. In laptops and tablets, the 0.47mm contact pitch and 8.7mm body length help fit the port into a thin edge. In chargers and power accessories, the 5A / 20V rating supports PD designs up to 100W when the PCB copper, cable and controller are matched. For industrial and IoT hardware, check the enclosure opening and the -25°C to +85°C operating range against the real use environment.
