Programmable Power Supply (PPS) is a standard that refers to the advanced charging technology for USB-C devices. It can modify voltage and current in real-time by feeding maximum power based on a device's charging status.

Power Delivery (PD) is a specification for handling higher power and allows a range of devices to charge quickly over a USB connection. It functions by facilitating communication between two devices to negotiate a power contract so they can determine how much power can be pulled from the charger.


basically, it'll account for power surges or low power (etc.) and maintain a steady flow of electrons to your device and not fry it if your power generator sucks, when you're trying to dump a lot of power to your devices to quick charge (layman simplified terms) the smarter ones will also check temperature and such; then trickle charge your device to avoid bursting your poor lithium-polymer battery
It's basically PD 2.0 (not to confuse with the actual PD 2.0 standard) for charging devices. Avoid buying chargers over 20W without it unless the charger can provide the exact voltage your equipment needs

For example Samsung phones 45W fast charging requires PPS
Thank for the explanation.... But I still don't get it. ???

If I want to fast charge an iPad and iPhone I need at least 20W on each one. This says 18W but is that only if I am using the 60W on the other port? If I don't use the full 60W what can the other output? TIA

refuse to buy amazon basics USB C fast chargers anymore.
they are junk, getting them to process a warranty replacement was like pulling teeth and no one knew how to do it. finally found someone who did.

so far, over the last year i purchased them, they have a 50% failure rate. garbage

I think Oraimo 65W 3 port charger for $11.99 is a better deal than Amazon Basics
  • Amazon basics can do single port 60W and dual port at 50W + 18W
  • Oraimo can do single port 65W, dual port at 45W + 20W and tiple port at 45+15 (15W on Port 2 and 3 combined)
  • Oraimo also supports PPS (3.3-20v, 3.25A)
Given the specs and $4 cheaper, Oraimo 65W charger seems to be a better deal. Thoughts?

I think the best alternative is you search the forums and then click the link to the item. Though heaven forbid you want to go back to the forum from there (no back button back out iirc).

Quote from Deci :
GaN is manufacturing material as far as I know. Unrelated to PD/PPS

Don't see PPS voltage range on the pictures

Can you provide a link to one with GAN and PPS both?

Not familiar with the brand but it looks promising. For $12, I ordered one. Thanks!
