Product Description: Double-sided USB Type-C Socket Module - Breadboard Connector - Adafruit 5993
Adafruit ’s reversible module is the perfect solution for makers looking to incorporate USB Type-C into their projects. With its symmetrical and reversible design, USB Type-C eliminates the hassle of misplacing cables. The module features two 5.1kΩ resistors on the CC pins, which tell the upstream port to provide 5V and up to 1.5A of current. Depending on the capabilities of your power source, the module can provide the right amount of power for your project. Additionally, the vertical orientation of the connector means the module takes up less space on your breadboard, making it easier to integrate into compact designs.
