An integrated DAC (digital-to-analogue converter) chip inside the adapter body processes the digital audio signal from the USB-C port and outputs it as an analogue signal to the 3.5mm jack, allowing conventional wired headphones to work with devices that no longer carry a dedicated headphone socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe adapter suits daily use with modern Android smartphones, tablets, and USB-C equipped laptops where a 3.5mm headphone output has been removed from the hardware. The 140mm total length (including both the USB-C plug and the 3.5mm socket ends) gives enough cable to reach from a device in a pocket or on a desk to headphones worn at ear level without strain on the connection. The adapter weighs 4g and can be coiled or left plugged into headphones when not in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DAC chip inside the adapter ensures compatibility with a range of USB-C devices that support audio-over-USB-C protocols. Not all USB-C ports output audio — some USB-C ports are data-only or charge-only — so compatibility depends on whether the source device supports the USB Audio Class standard. The adapter outputs analogue audio, so it works with passive headphones, earbuds and headsets with in-line microphone controls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCable : length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e140 x 10 x 8mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this work with all USB-C devices?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe adapter works with USB-C devices that support audio output over USB-C (USB Audio Class standard). Most modern Android smartphones and tablets support this, but some USB-C ports are data-only or charge-only and will not output audio. Check your device specifications before purchasing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the DAC and why is it needed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DAC (digital-to-analogue converter) chip inside the adapter converts the digital audio signal from the USB-C port into an analogue signal that conventional 3.5mm headphones can use. Without the DAC, passive headphones would not work with a USB-C audio output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this work with headphones that have in-line controls?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
