From the project
High-Throughput Stationary Platereader
Based on: https://github.com/Hugoyhu/SL2.1A-Type-C-Hub
A simple 4-port USB2 hub based on the SL2.1A design. This board is designed in KiCAD v7! It is based off an earlier 2021 design with USB-A outputs.
This revises the board to provide USB2 Type-C outputs. By default, the schematic provides circuitry for default USB power (500mA) but resistor values can be changed to provide higher output current if available through external power.
