The Raspberry Pi 45W USB-C Power Supply is an ideal power supply for USB-C powered 5V Raspberry Pi products offering up to 5.1V 5A, as well as third-party PD-compatible products due to its additional PD profiles, including 9V 5A, 12V 3.75A, 15V 3A and 20V 2.25A.
Like the Raspberry Pi 27W USB-C Power Supply, it is especially suitable for Raspberry Pi 5 users who wish to drive high-power peripherals, such as hard drives and SSDs. The 5V PD mode delivers a maximum of 5.1V, 5A and it supports USB PD (Power Delivery) negotiation, so Raspberry Pi 5 can communicate with it and select the most appropriate power profile.
This enables Raspberry Pi 5 to increase the USB current limit automatically from the default 600mA to 1.6A, in order to provide extra power for devices connected to the four Type A USB ports.
What separates this from the Raspberry Pi 27W USB-C Power Supply is the extended range of built-in PD power profiles with higher current offerings, making the Raspberry Pi 45W USB-C Power Supply even better for powering third-party PD-compatible products such as smartphones, tablets and laptop computers. It also has aslightly longer cableat 1.5m (vs 1.2m on the 27W version).
The available profiles are 5.1V 5A, 9V 5A, 12V 3.75A, 15V 3A and 20V 2.25A, all limited to a maximum of 45W.
