USB Micro-B Connector Breakout Board

Description

This board breaks out the VBUS, GND, D-, D +, and ID pins of a USB Micro-B connector. The VBUS and GND pins can be used to power your project from USB, while the D- and D + pins give you access to the USB differential data signals. Each of these pins, along with the ID pin, are broken out into a 1 × 5 row of 0.1? -Spaced pins on the board. The included 1 × 5 straight male header can be soldered to these pins to allow the board to be used with standard perfboards, solderless breadboards, and 0.1? connectors.

This tiny unit measures only 0.35? ? 0.6? (0.4?? 0.6? Including its USB Micro-B connector) and has two 0.086? diameter semi-circular cutouts for mounting with # 2 or M2 screws.

We also carry a USB Mini-B connector breakout board, and we have two power muxes that double as USB Micro-B breakout boards: the FPF1320 carrier and the TPS2113A carrier. These latter two power multiplexers make it easy to have a device that can be powered by both USB and an external supply.
