USB-C Type 3.1 Female 4-Pin PCB Connector Board

Compact USB-C 4-Pin Connector for DIY & Electronics Projects

This USB-C Type 3.1 female 4-pin board simplifies the process of adding a modern Type-C port to custom gadgets, power supplies, or data cables. The minimal design focuses on the essential contacts — VBUS (5 V), GND, D+, and D– — giving you a straightforward way to implement basic USB 2.0 data transfer or 5 V charging functionality.

Technical Specifications & Board Dimensions

Connector type: USB-C Type 3.1 female (4 pins – Vcc / D+ / D– / GND)
Pinout contacts: 4 (VBUS, GND, D+, D–)
PCB size (W × L × H): 20 × 14.5 × 6.8 mm

Why This USB-C 4-Pin Board Works Well for DIY Builds

• The compact footprint makes it easy to mount inside small enclosures, project boxes, or custom PCBs.
• Because only the essential 4 pins are exposed, it’s ideal for basic USB 2.0 data communication and 5 V power — perfect for microcontrollers, charging circuits, or simple cable adapters.
• Solder-ready board format helps hobbyists and engineers integrate the connector without complex wiring or expensive tooling.

Limitations & What to Know

This board routes only the four basic pins (VBUS, GND, D+, D−). It does not break out the full SuperSpeed or configuration-channel (CC) pins found on a full USB-C spec port — which means it may not support USB-C cable orientation detection, USB Power Delivery negotiation, or full SuperSpeed/USB-3.x data rates. 

Typical Use Cases

Use this USB-C 4-pin female connector board for: charging modules, simple USB data cables, power-only cables, microcontroller USB interfaces, or bespoke DIY electronics projects where 5 V power and USB 2.0 data suffice.
