A small USB-C external sound card that gives a USB-C laptop, phone or tablet two 3.5mm jacks: one for headphones or a speaker, one for a microphone. Plug and play, no drivers, no power adapter.
This is a generic USB-C external sound card in the form of a short adapter.
One end is a USB-C male plug that goes into a laptop, phone or tablet, and the other end splits into two clearly marked 3.5mm jacks: a stereo output for headphones or a speaker, and an input for a microphone.
Modern USB-C laptops, phones and tablets have dropped the built-in headphone jack, and this adapter puts that wired jack back, so you can plug in ordinary 3.5mm headphones and an external mic.
It is bus-powered, which means it takes the small amount of power it needs from the USB-C port, with no battery and no separate power adapter.
It is plug and play as a standard USB audio class device, so Windows, macOS, Linux and most modern USB-C phones and tablets pick it up on their own with no drivers to install.
It supports both TRS and CTIA microphone wiring, so it works with common lavalier and headset mics. This is a consumer-grade adapter that gives a stereo output and a single mic input.
It is the right tool for adding a wired audio jack to a USB-C device, but it is not a studio interface and has no XLR inputs or phantom power.
