The 2-Pin Micro Type-C Female Power Jack is a robust and modern charging solution designed for high-current power delivery in compact electronic devices. At Electrapac, we recommend this specialized connector for makers and repair technicians who want to upgrade older Micro-USB devices to the more durable and reversible USB-C standard.

Product Overview

Unlike standard 16-pin or 24-pin USB-C connectors used for high-speed data, this 2-Pin Version is simplified specifically for Power and Charging. By focusing only on the Positive (V_BUS) and Negative (GND) lines, it provides a much easier soldering experience for DIY projects, DIY power banks, and repairs of toys or rechargeable lamps.

Key Features for Electrapac Customers

• Reversible Convenience: Enjoy the "plug-in-either-way" benefit of USB-C. No more broken charging ports from trying to force a Micro-USB cable in the wrong direction.

• Heavy-Duty Power: Designed to handle up to 5A, making it suitable for fast-charging applications and high-power LED drivers that exceed the limits of older connectors.

• Easy Soldering Pads: Features two large, accessible solder lugs on the rear. This makes it ideal for beginners or for retrofitting existing devices that only require power input.

• Secure Mechanical Mounting: Equipped with side "wings" or mounting legs that can be soldered to the PCB for superior physical strength, preventing the port from being ripped off during frequent use.

• Heat Resistant Housing: Built with high-temperature plastic and a stainless steel shell to withstand the heat of soldering and long charging cycles.

Wiring & Retrofit Guide

The Electrapac 2-Pin Type-C socket is designed for simplicity. When looking at the rear solder pads:

1. VCC (+): The positive power input (usually 5V).

2. GND (-): The negative/common ground.

Pro-Tip: If you are using a "Smart" USB-C to USB-C cable (Power Delivery), some chargers may not provide power unless they detect a resistance on the "CC" pins. Since this is a 2-pin power-only jack, it is best used with USB-A to USB-C cables (Standard 5V chargers). If you must use a C-to-C cable, ensure your source is a standard 5V output.

Primary Applications

• Micro-USB to Type-C Upgrades: Replacing broken Micro-USB ports in Bluetooth speakers, headphones, or rechargeable fans.

• DIY Power Banks: Creating custom portable chargers for your Arduino or ESP32 projects.

• Electronic Toys: Upgrading battery-operated toys to be rechargeable via modern phone chargers.

• LED Strip Power: Providing a clean, modern power input for 5V addressable LED (WS2812B) setups.

• 3D Printed Enclosures: Designing custom gadgets that require a professional-looking external power port.
