Overview

The CX90B-16P is a high-durability USB 2.0 Type-C receptacle designed for mid-mount or standard surface mount applications. It supports up to 3A of current and is rated for 10,000 mating cycles, making it a robust interface for charging and data transfer in space-constrained designs. The connector features a hybrid mounting style with surface mount signal pins and through-hole shield legs for enhanced mechanical stability.

Why Choose This Part

The CX90B-16P offers exceptional mechanical reliability with a 10,000-cycle mating rating and through-hole shield tabs that resist levering forces. Its 16-pin configuration provides the benefits of the Type-C form factor for USB 2.0 speeds without the complexity of full 24-pin SuperSpeed routing. The Corson Alloy contacts with 0.20 micron gold plating ensure low contact resistance and long-term signal integrity.
