When exploring usb type c, it's essential to consider various aspects and implications. USB-C to Micro USB, what do I do for the CC pins? I have a USB-C breakout board that I'm connecting a micro-USB cable to so I only need Vbus, GND, D+ and D-, CC1 and CC2 are both shorted to ground using 5.1K resistors. I'm finding conflicting information as to what value these resistors should be for this application when using a 5V 2.5A power supply. Could someone assist me? Below is the schematics of the board.
Why USB-C GND is being connected to the shield of the cable ... I need some help: I have designed a circuit board with a USB C connector. Shield and GND are separated and are not connected to each other on my PCB (there is a C and R planned for later). However, as soon as I plug in an adapter cable (e.g.
USB-C->USB-A or USB-C -> USB-C) (still without a device at the other end of the cable), the shield of the cable is connected to GND. USB Type C (USB2.0) Wiring - Page 1 - EEVblog. I'm want to upgrade one of my designs to use the newer USB type-C connector. In the design, I use an Atmel micro, USB2.0 through a Micro USB connector.

The Official USB-IF Specification (PCMCIA Proposal 279, section 2.1.1) for this connector calls it either a "USB 3.1 Front-Panel Internal Connector" or an "Key-A 20-pin Shielded Header". The manual for the ROG strix B550-E "gaming" motherboard (selected at random from newegg) calls it a "USB 3.2 Gen 2 Front Panel" connector.
How important are the two 5.1k resistors on USB-C? A USB type-C host or power supply will not even turn on VBus until it detects Rd. So if your device is bus powered, it will not even power up when used with common charger.

Understanding USB-C vs Thunderbolt confusion - Page 1 - EEVblog. This seems like a simple question, but the answer doesn't appear to be completely clear. I need to order a monitor, that will work with both PC and Mac laptops (both via the USB-C "type" port). Obviously some modern Macs have Thunderbolt interfaces, PC's don't.
I need to be able to drive the display, charge the laptop and access the monitor's USB hub, all via 1 single USB-C/Thunderbolt cable ... How to route this USB-C connector - Page 1 - EEVblog.
