Simple USB C Socket Breakout Product ID: 5180

Description

This Simple USB Type C breakout is kinda interesting, it looks similar to this USB Type C SMT Inline Breakout Board , but it's an 'inline' style with pads for soldering to the common USB 1.1/2.0 connections. We see this lil breakout used often in custom keyboards, it's glued or wedged into the enclosure.

Unlike our breakout, it doesn't break out all the pads - it just gives you the classic 4 USB pins that would let you connect to a USB -capable chip or microcontroller. It does not have any resistors to set direction/current - but despite that it seems to work just fine when we used it to connect to our computer. It may no t work with power supplies or ports that require CC resistors for PD negotiation. For more details, we like this Introduction to USB C app note .
