What is USB Power Delivery? — Gary Explains

Read the full post: | More smartphones and other electronics products are supporting USB Power Delivery for fast charging. But what is it? Let me explain.
While it may seem like USB Type‑C, USB PD and fast charging systems like Qualcomm Quick Charge are all different, they’re actually all compatible.
Join Gary as he delves into the differences between USB Type‑A and Type‑C, Quick Charge 3 and Quick Charge 4, USB Power Delivery and what Google has done with the Pixel phones.
USB PD may be optional now, but Google “strongly recommends” OEMs and accessory-makers support it, as Qualcomm has already done.
With these recommendations appearing in documentation for both Android Nougat and Android Oreo, are we nearing the time that Google forces USB Power Delivery on everyone as the universal charging standard to rule them all? Would this be so bad?

I hope you liked my video about USB Power Delivery. I will be online for the next few hours checking the comments, so if you have any questions please reply to this comment and I will see if I can help.
Apple uses usb power delivery too but it has lightning on one end and usb c on the other
I saw Gary saying Utopia, he giggling
And this is why Apple still can sell their trashy Lightning cable;
“Hi, I want an Apple cable.”
“Here, you go”
“Thanks, bye!”
4:23 Good, I was a bit worried about that when Aida64 showed 5.5A on 3A cable (ROG Phone 2)
As the ultimate goal today is just to carry one cable, how does this work with cable adapters? Will they negotiate the difference?
Very helpful information here Gary. Thanks!
Hi. really good video.
In a powerbank (litio baterry with 3.6V) with PD 18W output, when the voltage goes higher (more than 5V) to quick charge, would the power bank be less efficient ? because the more higher the Voltage, smaller the powerbank capacity. Thanks.
good college explanation
I have uploaded All charging technologies. Which charger you should buy. Very informative video for all peoples.also subscribe super gadgets for more information video’s
Thanks!!
So I can use a 100W usb‑c power delivefry to charge a 65W laptop and it will be charged at 65W? Or i have to check if that specific charger supports 65W, ie, 20v/3.25A?
And about multiple ports over one 100W usb‑c charger?
Delivering power through USB‑C is really going to cut down on all those useless AC adapters and cables I have in my gadget drawer. I’m already starting to see portable power banks for sale that support PD for discharging AND charging. A 26000mah battery takes a LONG time to charge at 5 volts 1amp. A PD 2.0–3.0 wall charger can cut your charge time dramatically by switching to a higher supported voltage. PD 3.0 supports up to 20 volts at 5 amps (100 watts), so you could power a laptop through the USB‑C connector if your device supports it.
later on 2020 phone charge at 65w
Thank you for this explanation. Well done.
@2:27, Gary doesn’t understand BC v1.2. If you have a dedicated charging port, DCP, then yes, the data lines are tied together for primary detection. However, you can definitely have a charging downstream port, CDP, that talks to the device and also provides up to 1.5A. So, no. BC1.2 isn’t only for “chargers” and not “computers”
I’m not surprised this guy never took off. This has to be the most convoluted and incoherent explained video on the web.
Is it safe to charge a device which is 5volts 1amp with a PD charger.
I have an anker charger that charges up to 7 devices, some ports supporting QC and others supporting PD. However they all use type A connectors. Is it lying to me?
Also, if I use a usb c to c cable to charge my phone from my motherboard, will that enable quick charge? Thank you
Thank you! I’ve looking for an explanation of why so many of my devices charge poorly, despite usb 3.1 designation etc.
I was just wondering, all what you have said also applies to car chargers right? Nice video
Thanks
Every ordinary charger these days can deliver over 2amps (so more than 10 watts) over a standard USB A cable, so which standard are they using? Also, I’ve got Oppo A52 and it supports charging at 9V / 2A using usb A to C cable.
Is it safe to, let’s say, power my xiaomi wowstick with the micro USB it bringa, but with a Huawei p30 pro charger?? Thank you
Great video Gary — well explained.
Will a pd 1 charger work on a pd 2.0 power bank?
Very good video! Thank you
USB‑C Power Delivery 3.1 now offers a maximum of 240W (48V 5A), which means gaming laptops with a discrete GPU can now be charged and powered from a USB‑C port preferably the Thunderbolt kind.
7:50 that was the dream, except the USB consortium is f**king it up themselves with their own different generations of USB. even USB-PD is set to revise up to 240W, which renders 100W parts unusable for devices that need more than 100W
I’ve been reading/watching lots about PD and this video is by far the best explanation I’ve come across. Just wanted to show my appreciation.
Hello. How come the output reading of a USB plug has 3 data? I am looking for a fast USB plug to be used as an adaptor to my rechargeable battery device. I have two plugs. Data as follows:
USB Plug1 Data – Input 100V-240V ~50/60Hz 0.5A
Output: DC 5V==3A / 9V==2A / 12V==1.5A
USB Plug2 Data – Input 100V-240V ~50/60Hz 0.75A
Output: DC 5V==2A / 4.5V==5A / 5V==4.5A
Which is suitable and fast charging of two?
what i dont understand is there are 65w PD Powerbanks that can charge laptops but i can’t find a 45w or higher PD Car Charger that can charge a laptop that needs 20v. The car charger needs a 24v input which is a TRUCK! (very confusing)
could you please explain PD 3.0 and PPS ? do all PD 3.0 chargers or power banks include pps protocol ? and do devices have to support pps to benefit from it ?
PLEASE REPLY.
my fujifilm camera supports PD charging, my question is does that mean it supports PPS? if i use a pps charger/power bank to charge my camera wil the voltage/ampere change minimally to suit camera needs? in other words do devices have to support pps to benefit from it? or does pps certified charger do its job with any device?
Hi Gary, thanks for the great information on Power delivery, but there is one flaw in your explanation which is that USB power delivery cant be used with USB A or B ports, the fact is that they can be used and were launched in 2012
thank you.. this is the only resource i have found that shows the pd cable.. with the two usb c ends…
finally a clear explanation! bravo!
Hi Gary! That was a very clear explanation about this ridiculously complicated USB power situation! Thank you!
So if my charger support pd,but my cable and device doesnt support pd,can it have pd charging?
2:52 only works on true USB C? Nah that’s a lie. If you don’t know about Samsung Galaxy A5 2016, well you miss that phone’s fast charger, and yes it’s using the power delivery thing that will pump it to 9v maybe 1.67A? And the phone Vivo Y17 has USB power delivery too of 9v 2a, and the crazy part, they both use Micro USB standard.
Thks & update pls
will the pd work on usb c to non usb c ports or only on USB c to USB c ports?
Nowadays we can see 100W 200W chargers but none of them are considered as PD chargers, can you explain to me that. If Pd means high output then in that case each and every high output charge should be able to charge Mac/usb C laptops
Why do 30W normal charger having USB A to C, cannot charge a MacBook with a 30W type‑C port
what is North Point Five?
Can I use PD charger with any phone?
