Replacing USB for Type C

[daviestar]

Hello everybody!

Does anyone have any experience of trying to replace the USB socket on the DNA board with a USB Type C one?

Cheers,

Dave

Would an adapter work for you.... such as this...

I'm hoping to solder off the old socket and replace with a Type C one... wondering if it would be an easy task?

100% not an easy task. i doubt it's even doable do to differences in the pinout arrangement/quantity vs. the existing micro USB that's already on the DNA boards. not worth destroying a board to find out, IMO.

USB c =10 connections

micro USB 2.0 = 4 connections
