Does the output of a charger matter?
Power output has no meaning if the voltage is wrong. If the voltage output is wrong, it will either damage the device or battery, or not charge at all. It’s best if you also use the specific charger recommended for your device.
Why are some phone chargers faster than others?
A faster charger cable has larger internal wires (mostly 24 gauge) that can carry larger currents of 2A or more. Currently, there are mostly slow standard cables in the market so if you are ready for fast charging, be sure to check your cables are also ready for your latest device and charger.
Are all 12v chargers the same?
– Yes, they are likely interchangeable even though voltage is not the same. This is because the voltage difference is within specs, and I am GUESSING you could go even higher or lower in voltage.
What is the output of a charger?
The output of a charger is the maximum power it’s able to deliver to a device. The input of your device is the maximum power it will receive. So, take the slowest power between the two of them and, unfortunately, that’s your maximum charge speed.
What is the function of the charging port on a phone?
There are two answers that are on the right track. The simple answer is, the charger (like someone guessed) is probably a USB-C charger, which communicates with the device it’s charging, and adjusts both the amperage and the voltage to what the device is requesting.
How do Chargers and devices get rated?
Chargers and devices are rated for the power they can deliver and/or receive. The output of a charger is the maximum power it’s able to deliver to a device. The input of your device is the maximum power it will receive. So, take the slowest power between the two of them and, unfortunately, that’s your maximum charge speed.
What is the function of the Charger?
The simple answer is, the charger (like someone guessed) is probably a USB-C charger, which communicates with the device it’s charging, and adjusts both the amperage and the voltage to what the device is requesting. The devices have a common communication protocol (probably PD) and therefore the charger can provide what the device needs.
