What are the max. overmold dimensions for USB-C plugs?
See figure 3-11 (page 57,58)
Page 58 has the width at 12.35 max and the thickness at 6.5 max
the locations of sections A-A and C-C are given by the drawings on page 57
figure 3-3 has this information too. (note. it also covers multiple pages)
I designed a housing with a recessed USBC socket based on the 12.35 x 6.5 dimensions shown in fig 3-11, plus what I thought was a generous allowance, to discover the hard way that some cable mouldings are bigger.
The biggest measured dimensions of a small selection of cables I bought were 13.0 x 7.4, however the connector was not always central in the moulding so allowance must be made for offsets too. Most plug manufacturers don't publish toleranced drawings so it's a matter of buying a selection and measuring them.
In the new housing I'm allowing 16.0 x 10.0 and hoping for the best...
