Is it possible to solder a USB-C socket onto this motherboard?
This Micro USB cable bends so easily, and it doesn't look particularly good either. I want to replace it with USB-C.

Can someone help me, how do I connect this to a micro controller?
Greetings 🖖 The American Switchblade and Phoenix drones have a range of over 40 kilometers, and they also transmit live images. I'd like to know what technology and frequencies are used.

Hello, My boyfriend has a Dino Kraftpaket 600-12V power bank, but unfortunately, his charger was stolen. Since it's his birthday soon, I'd like to get him a new one, but I can't find one. The website says "Power plug (Input (AC): 100V / 240V / Output (DC): 14V / 1A)" above it. You can't buy…
Hello, the roller shutter on one of my skylights can only be lowered halfway, after which it simply stops. What could be causing this, and what can I do?

If technology were to advance to the point where, for example, there would be robots/androids that looked like humans and were able to do all kinds of housework, cook food, etc. Would you buy such an android?

There are always many possibilities, it always depends on whether it makes sense and how much effort this is associated with.

What does that look like in your case?
Direct soldering should not be possible, because micro-USB has a different pinout than USB-C. You can insert the USB-C plug in both directions.
Possibilities for crafting still remain here.
If you like to craft, you can order a USB-C-Breakout board and manually make the connections and mill a new opening into the cover.
ABER: However, since USB-C has an extended functionality with respect to power supply, the micro USB cannot deliver. As a workaround, you should pull the CC1 Pin to Vcc over a 56k resistance.
But why so complicated?
In my opinion, the picture does not show a motherboard, but seems a card reader with a USB hub. Your actual motherboard will certainly have some USB outputs, where you can regularly connect and screw a USB-C socket to the front panel.
Or do you just need the USB-C port for charging?
In this case, only the connection of 5V and GND would be enough.
Apparently, the jack has to hold something like that with you.
I would install a larger caliber and then solder the 4(5) connections (VBUS, GND, D+, D-) to the pads of the MiniUSB plug. Does the device have any data transfer or does the port only serve for loading? Then only 2 of the cables are enough.
The screw connection in the housing then also has the correct stability.
(e.g. Amphenol UB-20PMFP-SC8002 or UB-20PMFP-LC7002)

Similar sockets are also available in the USB-A variant (the “flat, wide”, if the device shown is a host, the function cannot be seen).
Hello,
because the pin assignment of a USB-C is different than that of a Micro USB,
it is not possible to solder the sockets connections 1:1.
You’d have to make some bridges and solder the connections.
USB controllers also differ,
because there are different USB-C standards.
I’ll say: No, don’t.

A pity. The Micro USB socket is so terrible and stubborn. Each cable can be swung so strongly because the outer walls of the bushing are simply soft and single-bent. If anything gets broken, I don’t want to change the whole motherboard
Just count the pins of the two jacks, do you notice?
Technology must work.
I’ve seen this before. Just hoped that you’d link me to other people who have exactly 5 pins. Apparently, I get more comments to improve my mathematics. That’s why I’m asking.
Thanks for the answer and greetings
Just go out with hot air escaper. I wouldn’t. The small track is off very quickly. I’ve screwed up a lot.
Look at the pin assignment of a usb c jack. I would advise you very much, because nothing to do with your knowledge. That ends in total damage.
