SAMSUNG 15W ADAPTER
The Samsung 15W USB-C Power Adapter (e.g., model EP-T2510) is a single-port wall adapter designed to deliver Super Fast Charging to compatible Galaxy phones and other devices. It is the recommended charger for most models in the Galaxy S, Galaxy Note, and Galaxy A series.
-
Super Fast Charging (SFC): This is Samsung's name for their fast-charging protocol, which is based on the industry-standard USB Power Delivery (PD) 3.0 with the crucial addition of PPS (Programmable Power Supply).
-
PPS Technology: PPS is what truly enables the maximum 15W speed. It allows the charger and the device to continuously communicate and fine-tune the voltage and current in real-time. This dynamic adjustment leads to faster, more efficient charging and better heat management.
-
GaN Technology (Newer Models): Newer versions of this adapter often incorporate Gallium Nitride (GaN), making them significantly more compact and energy-efficient than previous models, with minimal standby power consumption.
-
Universal Compatibility: While optimized for Samsung devices, it adheres to the universal PD standard, allowing it to fast-charge other PD-compatible phones (like Google Pixel or Apple iPhone 8 and later) at their optimal speed (up to 15W).
-
Zero Standby Power: It is designed to minimize standby power consumption to less than 5mW, saving energy when not actively charging a device.
