Xiaomi is a mobile phone manufacturer that laid out mobile phone fast charging very early, and as of now there are already Xiaomi mobile phones that support 120W fast charging. It is not so simple to achieve 120W high-power fast charging, from head to toe, from charger to cable to mobile phones need special customization.
Recently, the charging head network got a fast charging data cable from Xiaomi, the appearance is no different from the conventional cable, the reason why it is brought out separately to talk about it is because this cable supports 6A high-current fast charging, which is higher than the current of the common E-Marker 5A wire. This is also a key part of Xiaomi mobile phones to achieve high-power fast charging, let's take a look.
Wire appearance
It is worth mentioning that this data line is not officially sold separately, but with other products. This time to get started is a C to C fast charging data cable attached to the Xiaomi 67W Gallium Nitride charger, which is no different from other data cables in appearance.
The tail of the mesh at both ends of the wire is thickened, which can play a role in bending.
The logo of 6A at the end of the network also shows that the cable supports 6A high-current fast charging, which is also the biggest difference from the common 5A E-Marker fast charging line.
The end-to-end length of the wire is about 152.5cm, which is half longer than the conventional 1 meter cable, and it is more relaxed to charge a mobile phone or a laptop.
Using ChargeLAB's latest POWER-Z KM002C tester to test the wire, the actual test in addition to supporting Xiaomi 6A high-current fast charging, but also compatible with 20V5A 100W PD fast charging.
This fast charging line has been disassembled by the charging head network before, and a Xiaomi custom chip has been seen inside the terminal head.
Support fast charging
Xiaomi's fast charging line supports 6A high-current fast charging, and is compatible with 100W PD fast charging, let's test the fast charging support for the device.
Use the Xiaomi Mi 67W Gallium Nitride charger with a 6A data cable to charge the Xiaomi Mi 12 Pro with a power of 16.69V 3.10A 51.88W.
Under the same conditions, the Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro is charged, the power is 8.77V 5.98A 52.51W, and the current has reached the upper limit of 6A.
Charge the Xiaomi Mi 11 with a power of 9.05V 4.95A 44.86W.
Charge the Redmi Note11 Pro+ with a power of 16.68V 3.46A 57.72W.
Using Xiaomi 120W Gallium Nitride charger with cable for Redmi Note11 Pro+, the power is 17.25V 5.56A 96.06W, and the cable supports Xiaomi series 120W Max fast charging.
All of the above tests are Xiaomi mobile phones, what will happen if you switch to other phones?
The Red Magic 6 Pro supports 120W fast charging, and comes standard with a 120W Gallium nitride charger with USB-C output interface. Use the Original 120W Gallium Nitride charger of the Red Magic 6 Pro with the Xiaomi Mi 6A C to C Fast Charge Data Cable to charge the Red Magic 6 Pro with a power of 16.32V 3.42A 55.89W. It is still possible to trigger fast charging, but it cannot reach the fast charging power of 100 watts.
Charging the Nubia Z30 Pro under the same conditions, the power is 16.08V 3.42A 55.06W, which can also achieve fast charging, but cannot achieve the highest fast charging power.
Using a 100-watt PD charger with a Xiaomi Mi 6A fast charge cable to charge the MacBook Pro 16, it can trigger a 20V high voltage fast charge with a power of 94.65W, and the Xiaomi Mi 6A fast charge data cable is compatible with 100W PD fast charge.
Data transfer is also supported
Connect the cable to the hard disk enclosure and the laptop, and you can see that the information of the hard disk has been read on the screen of the computer at this time.
Charging head net summary
With the step-by-step improvement of Xiaomi's mobile phone fast charging power, the conventional cable is obviously not enough, the Xiaomi 6A fast charging cable type is C to C, the appearance looks no different from the conventional dual USB-C cable, but the 6A logo is added at the end of the network.
In terms of charging, the actual measurement can be very good for Xiaomi mobile phone fast charging, triggering the upper limit of 6A high-current fast charging, but for other similar types of fast charging models, it cannot trigger 6A high-current fast charging. In addition, the cable also supports data transfer, but it is at the USB 2.0 level. At present, the independent sale information of the wire is not found in the official mall. As the cable attached to the charger, 6A high-current fast charging is its biggest feature.
