What is the Click Scolmore MCP595?

What is the USB charging output?

Scolmore specifies 5V DC independent charging, with the Type-A port rated up to 2.4A and the Type-C port rated up to 3A. The detailed feature list states a 4.2A charging capacity.

Does the USB-C port support Power Delivery?

The official MCP595 specification lists a standard 5V DC USB-C charging output but does not state that USB Power Delivery or higher-voltage rapid charging is supported. Compatibility and charging speed will depend on the connected device and cable.

Can both USB ports be used at the same time?

The product provides both Type-A and Type-C charging outlets. Available charging current may be shared or limited when multiple devices are connected, so charging speed can depend on the connected equipment.
