Ukuvela kobuchwepheshe akunakuvinjelwa futhi kubonakala sengathi ijackphone eyindilinga yekhanda le-3.5mm inezinsuku zayo ezibaliwe noma kubonakala kanjalo, njengoba i-Intel, i-chip giant ujoyina ezinye izinkampani ekuphakamiseni ukushintshwa kwalokhu kufakwa komsindo we-analog ngenye indlela yedijithali.
I-Intel ikuqinisekisile lokhu ngoba amadivayisi azayo afaka ubuchwepheshe bawo, womabili ama-smartphones, amaphilisi kanye neminye imishini yekhompyutha lahla i-headphone jack njengokujwayelekile ukushintshela ku-USB-C. Le nkampani yenze lesi sitatimende engqungqutheleni yentuthuko yakamuva lapho yethule khona umsindo we-USB-C digital.
Esikhathini esifushane, i-Intel izozama ukumane ishintshe i-jack yakudala nge-USB-C incazelo yomsindo we-analog. U-Intel uthe lesi sinyathelo kungaba "ngokuyisisekelo indawo yokuxhuma."
Kodwa-ke bebheke esikhathini esizayo, banethemba lokuthi ukwamukelwa kwe-USB-C nakho kuyasiza njengoba bethatha isinyathelo sokuphela ubudala be-analog bese uhambisa umsindo wedijithali.
Ngokombono womsebenzisi, hambisa ku okukhipha umsindo we-digital kungaba ngumqondo omuhle, okungukuthi ikhwalithi yekhwalithi yomsindo ezoba sobala kanye ne-Intel, umenzi we semiconductor enkulu kunazo zonke emhlabeni kuze kufike lapho ingakhiqiza khona i-analog kuma-chips wokuguqulwa komsindo wedijithali.
Ngakolunye uhlangothi, kunobufakazi obukhulayo bokuthi i-Apple icabanga ngokuthatha into efanayo, yize iningi labantu likholelwa ukuthi umenzi we-iPhone ungakhetha isixhumi sakho sombani esikhundleni sokusebenzisa okujwayelekile kwemboni, i-USB-C, okungenani kumadivayisi wakho we-iOS (i-iPhone ne-iPad). Lokhu kuphakamisa isimo esithakazelisayo ngempi encane phakathi kwe-Intel ene-USB-C kanye nesixhumi se-Apple esiphathelene, i-ligthning, njengoba kungenzeka ukuthi i-Intel iqale ukwenza ama-chips wokuxhumana we-Apple kusanda kuxoxwa.
