You will start to see these connectors pop up on all sorts of devices, as the industry moves from micro B or lightening to the new standard. Well, at least until the next standard comes out\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUSB C features a symmetric\/reversible connector, more data pins and higher current output capability. But, for most developers, the pin usage you know and love from older USB will work just fine. This breakout gives you all the basics you need and a resistor configuration that mimics classic USB 2.0 for a \u003cem\u003edownstream connection\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe two 5.1K resistors on the \u003cstrong\u003eCC1\u003c\/strong\u003e pins indicate to the upstream port to provide 5V and up to 1.5A (whether the upstream can supply that much current depends on what you're connecting to.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor most usages, you can just connect \u003cstrong\u003eVBUS\u003c\/strong\u003e to your 5V input, \u003cstrong\u003eGND\u003c\/strong\u003e to ground, and \u003cstrong\u003eD+ \u003c\/strong\u003eand \u003cstrong\u003eD-\u003c\/strong\u003eas you expect. You can monitor the CC and SBU pins to determine cable polarity, or send side-band data.
