Overview

Stop frying boards. Start powering them right. USB-C is everywhere - but ""one connector to rule them all"" hides a world of negotiation, limits, and hidden traps. Power Delivery (PD) can run a Raspberry Pi 5, a gaming laptop, or a camera rig - but only if you understand what the charger, cable, and device are really agreeing to. This book is your complete PD toolkit: Understand the versions - PD 2.0 (100 W), PD 3.0 with PPS, and PD 3.1 up to 240 W. Learn which devices support which rails, and why it matters. Decode cables and e-markers - why a missing chip drops you to 3 A, and how counterfeit cables ruin projects. Protect your devices - using fuses, buck/boost converters, ripple filters, and current-limiting modules. Measure, don't guess - how to use inline meters, analyzers, and electronic loads to reveal the real contracts being negotiated. Learn from real case studies - Pi 5 undervoltage errors, Arduino boards fried by 20 V triggers, and camera rigs saved with LC filters. Inside you'll find: Tested recipes for powering Raspberry Pi 5, Arduino projects, routers, and camera rigs safely over USB-C. Clear charts mapping PD specs to real-world devices. Lab-ready troubleshooting checklists and margin-safe power budgeting worksheets. A structured mindset that turns frustration into professional reliability. If you work with Raspberry Pi, Arduino, ESP32, cameras, or home-lab gear, this is the reference you'll keep at your bench.
