Right Angle / Horizontal USB-C Connector?

Open sbelectronics opened this issue 3 months ago • 1 comments

Hi, I was wondering if there are any known right-angle/horizontal USB-C connectors that are compatible with the footprint for the vertical connector on the PicoROM module? When I design my pcboards, it's often with the ROM(s) near the edge of the board, with the top pointed off-board (where I usually fit a ZIF) socket, and it would be convenient to have a variant where the connector executed parallel to the pcboard rather than perpendicular to it.

I have not looked, but I would be surprised if there was one, horizontal connectors usually have just a single row of pads. Let me know if you find one.
