USB, DVI, HDMI Connector Assemblies Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '-03-A' against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm plating specifications and packaging details. Ensure the selected variant matches the required board thickness and soldering profile for surface mount assembly. Cross-reference the 24-position pinout to distinguish between active signals and dummy contacts for proper circuit design integration.

USB, DVI, HDMI Connector Assemblies Selection Notes

Select this component when space constraints require a short-body USB Type-C receptacle. The combination of SMT and through-hole mounting posts provides superior mechanical durability compared to pure SMT designs. It is suitable for applications requiring robust retention forces while maintaining compatibility with standard USB 2.0 cables and accessories.

USB, DVI, HDMI Connector Assemblies Part Context

This part belongs to the USB4215 series of short-body USB Type-C receptacles from GCT. It shares the same physical form factor and mounting characteristics as the USB4216 but differs in internal contact configuration. Both models are designed to reduce PCB area usage while offering high-cycle durability and stable connection performance for consumer electronics.

USB, DVI, HDMI Connector Assemblies Replacement Considerations

The USB4216-03-A is a direct functional substitute within the same short-body series. Verify that the replacement part maintains the required 16-pin active contact configuration and identical mechanical dimensions for PCB compatibility.
