Pololu USB 2.0 Type-C Connector Breakout Board (usb07b)
This simple board breaks out the power, USB 2.0 data, configuration, and sideband pins of a USB Type-C connector to a 0.1ā³ spacing that is compatible with standard perfboards, solderless breadboards, and 0.1ā³ connectors. On-board CC pull-down resistors make it easy to use the receptacle in a power-sinking application.
The USB-C connectorās 16 tightly-spaced pins make it difficult to use in a hobby project or prototype design. This breakout board helps by providing access to the connectorās pins for power (VBUS and GND), USB 2.0 differential data (D+ and Dā), Configuration Channel (CC), and Sideband Use (SBU). Each of these pins is broken out into a 1Ć8 row of 0.1ā³-spaced pins on the board, along with duplicate VBUS and GND pins for high-current applications.
The included 1Ć10Ā straight male headerĀ can be soldered to these pins to allow the board to be used with standard perfboards,Ā solderless breadboards, and 0.1ā³ connectors.
This board doesĀ notĀ provide access to the USB 3.1 SuperSpeed differential pairs (TX and RX signals), so it only supports USB 2.0 Low-Speed, Full-Speed, and High-Speed communication.
This tiny unit measures only 0.8ā³Ā ĆĀ 0.5ā³ (0.8ā³Ā ĆĀ 0.55ā³ including its USB Type-C connector) and has two 0.086ā³ diameter mounting holes for #2 or M2Ā screws.
Using the breakout
Configuration and auxiliary pins
A Type-C receptacle can either provide power as a āSourceā or consume power as a āSinkā; this usually corresponds to whether the port is a USB host (Downstream Facing Port, or DFP) or USB device (Upstream Facing Port, or UFP). The Configuration Channel, or CC, pins are used to determine the role of a port when it is connected.
This carrier board pulls the CC1 and CC2 pins to GND through 5.11 kĪ© termination resistors, making the port a Sink and a UFP by default and allowing it to be a straightforward replacement for a Type-B, Mini-B, or Micro-B port on a USB device. If you want the port to serve as a Source instead, or if you want to perform more advanced configuration like USB Power Delivery negotiation, you can disconnect or remove the onboard resistors and make your own connections to the CC pins exposed by the board.
The Sideband Use, or SBU, pins are not used by the USB protocol. Instead, they are available for use after the USB interface has been configured to operate in an Alternate Mode, which allows it to be repurposed for other protocols and applications. This configuration is done through communication on the CC line between the host and device using the USB Power Delivery protocol.
