Type c recessed
About the Type c recessed PCB
Type c recessed is an open source PCB design by Jana-Marie, published on GitHub under the CERN-OHL-S-2.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 9.2 × 10.7 mm, with 7 components from 5 distinct parts.
By type, the board carries 4 connectors, 2 resistors and 1 capacitor.
From the project
A simple (for now power only) back-mounted USB Type-C receptacle for beautiful boards~
My simple solution of bringing USB Type-C power receptacles flush into circuit boards, thus allowing for beautiful faceplates and PCB based user interfaces.
If you want to use this solution, please get the designfiles in the 'hardware files/' folder produced, add a 6-Pin USB-C power only connector and two 5.1k 1% resistors to each board. If neccessary, please also add a 4.7uF cap to the back of each board.
