  • Up to 5 V 2 A power and USB 2.0 data throughput
  • Surface-mount design suits DIY OEM repair projects

DIY Solder Type-C Female Connector

This kit provides ten surface-mount Type-C female sockets designed to replace Micro-USB 5-pin footprints on custom boards. Five units follow the standard pinout while five use a reversible pinout for flexible layout options. The components are intended for hobbyists and engineers comfortable with manual soldering and SMT rework.

Sustained Load Behaviour

Each connector supports up to DC 5V 2A when paired with a USB 2.0 Type-C power source and device, allowing continuous charging or data transfer without thermal throttling. The through-hole style pins and compact SMT body maintain stable contact resistance during extended sessions. Performance scales with the host controller and cable quality rather than the adapter itself.

Upgrade Path

The parts replace legacy Micro-USB 5-pin female sockets in existing designs, letting builders migrate to the reversible Type-C form factor without redesigning the PCB outline. The jump is worthwhile when a project demands the mechanical durability and orientation-free insertion of Type-C while retaining USB 2.0 signalling. Boards that require USB 3.x speeds or alternate modes cannot use these connectors.

Questions about this item

Does the soldered Type-C connector generate noticeable heat when delivering 2 A continuously?

The connector is rated for DC 5 V at 2 A and has no active cooling, so it will warm slightly under full load but should not become hot in normal use.

What tools and materials do I need before I can install these connectors?

You need a soldering iron, solder, flux, a fine tip, magnification or good lighting, and a steady hand for surface-mount pads.

Will these connectors work with my existing Micro-USB 2.0 cables and chargers?

Yes, they are designed as a drop-in replacement for Micro-USB 5-pin female footprints and support USB 2.0 power and data with standard Type-C cables.
