USB Type C Plug Breakout board , for testing the USB-C port on the Nintendo Switch. Allows testing of all USB-C pins, if they are right soldering on the logic board. I tested a port today and I am very satisfied with the product.
After replacing a port, it was very easy to check if all the pins are soldered correctly. Using the diagrams i made with the connection points on the board, it will be very easy to check the connections.
Dummy question, but do we have to test with test board in 2 directions or only one and testing both A and B side is enough? I suppose second answer but I prefer to make sure.
Thanks
If we want to make sure no line is disrupted yes I agree, but if we just want to check the continuity of the type-c, one direction is enough to confirm good contact of the pins right?
Maybe I don’t get it.
From my point of view, in continuity mode it is not relevant if you test from point 1 to 2 or 2 to 1. If there is continuity between two points it will show up independent from the order of the probes.
What i mean is, if i only want to test a usb type-c replacement, i measure continuity from A and B side of the test board to the different test points, filters and so on on the Nintendo Switch board, once i figured it out what direction the test board is, if i get A and B side getting continuity to the various test point i can assume that the usb type-c is replaced correctly even without inverting the test board, since all continuity A and B side made it, correct? If i flip over the test board, it is more to test the continuity of ALL tracks from both directions AND A and B side, do you see my point ?
Ok now i get where the misunderstanding is, i was targeting of testing both side of the test board for sure, what i meant was that flipping it over the USB-C was not mandatory and you just confirmed it, awesome thanks.
