What this adapter does

The DELL SM100CL-02 is a 100W USB-C GaN power adapter built for MacBook Pro and Air models from 2016 through 2025. It supplies up to 20V at 5A through a USB-C connector and supports Power Delivery 3.0 for fast charging across a wide range of compatible laptops, tablets and phones.

Behaviour under sustained load

The unit accepts 100-240V input at 1.8A and delivers a maximum of 100W output, while the listed adapter rating is 85W at 20V and 11.8A. Gallium nitride construction helps maintain efficiency during extended charging sessions, and the 6ft dual C-port cable provides reach without adding bulk to the charger body.

Limits of the USB-C PD interface

Power Delivery 3.0 negotiates voltage and current up to 20V and 5A, so the adapter will only reach 100W with devices that request that profile. Older MacBooks capped at 61W, 65W or 87W will draw their maximum supported rate, and any device without PD support will fall back to standard USB power levels.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 100 W GaN adapter produce when running at full load all day?

The gallium-nitride design runs cooler than silicon equivalents, and the 100-240 V 1.8 A input draws only what the attached device requests up to 20 V 5 A, so sustained output stays within normal operating temperatures.

What must I already own to use this DELL SM100CL-02 charger with my MacBook?

A MacBook or other USB-C device that accepts Power Delivery 3.0 at 20 V 5 A; the package includes a 6 ft dual USB-C cable, so no extra cable is required.

Will this 100 W adapter safely charge my 2016 13-inch MacBook Pro that originally used a 61 W brick?

Yes — the PD 3.0 handshake automatically negotiates 20 V 3 A (60 W) or lower, matching the 2016 model’s 61 W requirement without over-volting the battery.
