Apple May Add An Authentication Chip To iPhone 15’s USB-C Port. The idea behind this would be to charge 3rd part chargers additionla licence fees and ensue only chargers and Cables from Apple would work on iPhones.

Apple might be about to add its own custom authentication chip to the USB-C port on the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro, according to a new report.

Apple is set to switch from Lightning to USB-C with the release of the iPhone 15 lineup and a new report claims that the company already has a chip that will allow the device to authenticate legitimate charging cables.

Apple already does something similar with Lightning and the MFi program — a program that lets it charge a licensing fee for the chip that’s required to be in cables for them to work properly.
