Whilst you can buy adaptors with a fixed configuration this adaptor kit allows building up any mix of plug/sockets and A/micro/USB-C adaptor by just plugging them together.

The kit contains the following connector boards and pin headers.

Qty	Type	Gender
2	Micro USB	Plug
2	Micro USB	Socket
2	USB Type-A	Plug
2	USB Type-A	Socket
2	USB-C	Socket
5	-	6way long pin header

Of the 6 pins on the connector boards two are used for 5V and two for ground to help reduce voltage drop when using higher currents.

You can also use them as breakout boards giving access to 5V, USB D+/N-, inject or isolate 5V, tap to measure current, etc. by using your own 2.54mm pitch connectors.

The NEW USB-C adapters have jumpers to select either 10k pull-up (DFP - Downstream-facing port supplying power) capable of 3A max or 5.1k pull-down (UFP - upstream-facing device) on the CC1/CC2 pins (both jumpers should be set to the same position for normal use). It also breaks out VBUS, SBUS1, SBUS2, CC1, CC2 and GND pins to a 6-pin header which allows other resistors to be connected to the CC pins and access to the other pins on the USB2 USB-C connector.

Handy little toolkit when messing with various USB devices

Has already got me out of trouble in a few instances where I needed to mix and match connection types.

Great product!

Thank's Chris! Great product. Terrific and handy tools for the experimenter's/designer's bench. Over a thousand uses!

Awesome!

This product is just as described -- a handy USB 2.0 connector set with headers for signal interception and interconnection. You'll know if you need one, but if you do, these well-made little boards are a very nice bench addition.
