In general, USB cables and adapters sold commercially may have standardized connector shapes, but their internal wiring and resistance values vary widely.
Amidst this chaos in the USB world, there is a ray of hope: the USB CABLE CHECKER2.
It can verify information that is usually inaccessible, such as the resistance values and supported standards of microB and Type-C USB cables that are commonly used for charging and data transfer.
In addition to LED illumination, it is equipped with an OLED display that shows a wide range of information about various USB cables without omission.
This device can be used for selecting superior cables with lower resistance, checking the possibility of data transfer, confirming OTG/host functions, and verifying USB Power Delivery (USB PD) support, among other applications.

Features
- Supports a wide range of USB standards from Mini-B to Type-C, from USB 2.0 to 3.2, and can retrieve various information.
- Broad compatibility with the increasingly complex USB standards due to the proliferation of Type-C.
- Can check information on commonly used "Type A or C" and "miniB/microB/C" shaped USB cables, including:
- Wiring status of the cable
- Resistance values of Type-C cables and built-in resistors in adapters/convertors / E-marker check
- Grounding verification of the plug shell
- Resistance measurement of the cable
- Equipped with an LED that clearly indicates the wiring status at a glance.
- Displays various information such as cable resistance and e-marker data on the OLED screen.
- Measures and displays the resistance of the power supply terminal (VBUS to GND).
- Further, it can determine and display the supported power capacity and signal type based on the wiring status of signal lines such as pull-up resistors, CC pins, and SBU pins.
*Note:* The displayed cable resistance includes contact resistance of the device’s connector.
