Product Overview:
π Introducing the PDC004-PD Decoy Module, a versatile USB-C Power Delivery (PD) device designed to facilitate custom voltage output from compatible power supplies. Ideal for various applications such as monitors, routers, computers, fan heaters, and cooling chips, this innovative module empowers users to harness the full potential of their power supplies by selecting specific voltage levels for optimal performance.
πΏ What is a Decoy Module?
π§ A decoy module serves a critical function in the realm of modern power delivery. As many power supplies today offer adjustable fast charging capabilities, the default output is typically limited to 5V. To access higher voltages, users need a mechanism to communicate their desired output to the power supply. This is where the decoy module comes into play, utilizing established protocols like Quick Charge (QC) and Power Delivery (PD) to signal the required voltage output. By employing this technology, users can seamlessly customize the voltage provided to their devices, ensuring efficient and effective power management.
π§ Key Features:
πͺΆ Important Considerations:
π§© Understanding Current Output:
π§© The PDC004-PD Decoy Module is specifically designed to manipulate the output voltage while maintaining a safe current limit. The female Type-C connector can handle a maximum output of 5A; however, the actual current drawn will be dictated by both your power supply's capacity and the load being used. For instance, if your charger specifications indicate 9V at 2A or 12V at 1.5A, using the decoy module will ensure the current does not exceed these values while allowing for the desired voltage output.
π Measuring Accuracy:
β‘ Itβs important to note that the decoy module is responsible for indicating the desired voltage to the power supply but does not provide real-time voltage measurement. The accuracy of voltage output may vary based on the power supply's capabilities and load conditions, so actual readings may differ.
