Adafruit USB C SMT / THM Jack Connector - Power Only - Pack of 10

If you're working on a power-only project and need an update to the latest USB standard, this 10-pack of USB C power-only jack connectors is a great choice. These connectors boast a robust metal design with four through-hole mounting tabs, making them nearly impossible to dislodge from a PCB.

In an SMT line, simply paste over the through-hole slots, and the pads will secure themselves with ease. With a focus on low-cost simplicity, these connectors include essential pins—two for ground, two for vbus power, and CC1/CC2 pins—while excluding D+ and D- data pins. This design choice makes them easier to solder and reduces costs.

To get 5V power from a USB port, connect the ground and power pins to your desired device and attach two 5.1K resistors from CC1 and CC2 to ground, using a separate resistor for each CCx pin. Enhance efficiency in your projects using drag soldering techniques on these durable connectors.
