Fast charging is a must-have feature in the modern devices, which helps keep the batteries charged throughout the day. Quick charging allows users to resume the activity withing a few minutes. Many modern gadgets include some form of quick-charging feature, usually with a changeable current demand. However, different companies have varying standards, and charging speed is frequently determined by connections and chargers. Consumers tend to carry their PDs such as cellphones, tablets, and media players with them everywhere they go. As a result, companies are concentrating on delivering smart in-vehicle chargers in response to the rising demand from customers. Molex, LLC, for example, provides In-Vehicle Smart Charging Modules for passenger and commercial vehicles. The product complies with the Battery Charging (BC) 1.2 standards and can charge up to 5V DC / 1.5A with BC 1.2 compatible devices. The company is also offering a customization option in the form of the smart technology that connects with plugged-in mobile devices and ensures optimal battery charging for a variety of device profiles. Therefore, creating sustainable USB modules for various sorts of devices would be a key area of growth for automotive chargers and data USB hubs manufacturers in the near future.
