Overview — USB C 24 Pin Connector

The USB-TC24-M04 is a 24‑pin, full‑featured USB‑C plug connector designed for applications that demand the highest data throughput and power delivery in a compact footprint. Built to the USB 3.1 Gen 2 standard, it supports data transfer rates up to 10 Gbps, making it ideal for high‑speed peripheral connections, docking stations, and data‑intensive industrial equipment.

Its mid‑mount (recessed) right‑angle configuration is a key differentiator: the connector body sits within a cutout of the PCB, significantly reducing the installed height above the board surface. This makes it an excellent choice for ultra‑thin devices such as laptops, tablets, and portable medical monitors where vertical clearance is at a premium. The 24‑pin layout preserves the full USB‑C feature set, including support for USB Power Delivery up to 5A (100W) and Alternate Mode video signals (DisplayPort, HDMI) via appropriate controller integration.

Mechanically, the USB-TC24-M04 is built for reliability. It features a robust stainless steel shell for EMI shielding and structural integrity, gold‑plated contacts for low and stable contact resistance, and is rated for 10,000 mating cycles. Supplied in tape‑and‑reel packaging, it is ready for high‑volume SMT assembly, ensuring consistent quality and yield in automated production lines.

Whether you are designing next‑generation consumer electronics, industrial control systems, or compact medical devices, the USB-TC24-M04 delivers the performance, space efficiency, and long‑term durability required for mission‑critical applications.

Key Features of the USB-TC24-M04 Connector

USB 3.1 Gen 2 — Up to 10 Gbps

Full 24-pin SuperSpeed+ USB configuration supporting bidirectional data transfer rates of up to 10 Gbps, compatible with USB 3.2 Gen 2 hosts and devices.

🔋

5A / USB Power Delivery Ready

Rated at 5A continuous current with a 30VDC maximum voltage, meeting hardware requirements for USB PD fast charging when paired with a compliant controller IC.

📐

Mid-Mount Right Angle — Space Saving

The mid-mount design lowers overall PCB assembly height by seating the connector body within the PCB cutout — essential for ultra-thin laptops, tablets, and portable devices.

🔄

Reversible 24-Pin USB-C Interface

Full 24-pin layout supports the reversible USB-C plug orientation, enabling both data (USB 3.1) and video (DisplayPort Alt Mode) signal routing in compatible designs.

🏭

SMT-Compatible Reel & Tray Packaging

Available in standard tape-and-reel or tray packaging, enabling automated pick-and-place assembly on high-speed SMT production lines with no manual handling.

RoHS 3 & REACH Compliant

Fully compliant with RoHS 3 (EU Directive 2015/863) and REACH SVHC restrictions, ensuring safe export to the European Union, North America, and other regulated markets.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the USB-TC24-M04 support USB Power Delivery (PD) fast charging?
Yes. The USB-TC24-M04 is rated at 5A / 30VDC, satisfying the hardware-level requirements for USB Power Delivery. To implement PD fast charging in your design, a compatible USB PD controller IC (e.g., CYPD3177 or similar) is required on the PCB.
What is the difference between mid-mount and bottom-mount USB-C connectors?
A mid-mount (middle-mount) connector is recessed into a slot cut into the PCB, which significantly reduces the total installed height above the board surface — critical for ultra-thin device designs. A bottom-mount connector sits on top of the PCB surface, which is simpler to route but adds more height. If board clearance is a design constraint, mid-mount is the preferred choice.
Is the USB-TC24-M04 RoHS and REACH compliant?
Yes. The USB-TC24-M04 is manufactured in compliance with RoHS 3 (EU Directive 2015/863) and REACH SVHC regulations. Compliance documentation is available upon request for EU market entry or supply chain audits.
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) and lead time?
The standard MOQ is 1,000 pieces. Tape-and-reel packaging is compatible with automated SMT pick-and-place lines. Smaller sample quantities are available for engineering evaluation. For production lead times and pricing tiers, please submit a quote request.
Can I get a free sample before placing a bulk order?
Yes. Vistar Electronics offers complimentary samples for qualified product development projects. Fill out the quote form on this page or email [email protected] with your project details.
