Adafruit USB Type C Breakout Board - Downstream Connection

Upgrade to the cutting-edge USB C, the next generation of USB connectors, as the industry transitions from micro B and lightning. Expect this reversible connector to appear on various devices, offering more data pins and higher current output capabilities.

USB C supports up to 5V and 1.5A for most standard connections, with two 5.1K resistors on the CC1 pins to manage power requests. Use this breakout with classic USB 2.0 configurations for seamless integration.

Simply connect VBUS to your 5V input, GND to ground, and D+ and D- for traditional connections. Monitor CC and SBU pins for cable polarity or side-band data, or leave them disconnected for straightforward setup.
