USB Type-C 16Pin Female Socket Sinking Board (Middle Plate/Through-Hole/Bent Solder Legs on Both Sides for Reinforcement/5A Fast Charging/USB2.0 Data/Ultra-Thin Device Design)
Recessed/mid-plate breakout structure | Extreme reduction of overall device thickness | Dual-side bent DIP/SMT solder legs for tear resistance | 16Pin compatible with 5A fast charging and data | Free samples and CAD drawings
This USB Type-C 16Pin Mid-Mount female connector adopts a "Mid-Mount/Breakout" structural design. By sinking the connector body into the pre-reserved slot/breakout position on the PCB, it significantly reduces the protruding height of the interface on the PCB surface, making it an ideal solution for extremely compressing device thickness and achieving ultra-thin industrial design (ID). The shell is equipped with dedicated bent positioning and reinforcing solder legs on both sides, effectively dispersing insertion/withdrawal stress and preventing pad tearing; the tail features a streamlined 16Pin SMD layout, fully compatible with PD 3.0 fast charging (up to 100W/5A) and USB 2.0 high-speed data transmission. Widely used in ultra-thin smartphones, smart bracelets, tablets, portable medical terminals, and various high-density integrated electronic devices. 2D/3D drawings and free sample requests are available.

【Product Overview】USB Type-C 16Pin Female Socket Sink Plate (Mid-plate Breakout / Extreme Compression of Device Thickness / Double-Side Bent Feet for Reinforcement / 5A Fast Charging + Data)
USB Type-C 16Pin Mid-Mount Female Socket is a product specifically designed for Ultra-thin enclosure design, high-density PCB layout, and extremely high requirements for spatial stacking. A high-reliability embedded interface built with hardware products.
As consumer electronics evolve toward thinner and lighter designs, traditional horizontal connectors mounted on the PCB surface often become the bottleneck limiting the overall device thickness. This product, through Mid-plate countersunk (through-hole) structure + double-side bent positioning solder feet + 16-pin terminal optimized design, offers the following core advantages:
- Mid-plate sinking/piercing design (extreme compression of overall device thickness)The connector is embedded within the PCB board cut-out, aligning the interface centerline with the PCB's central axis, directly saving approximately 50% of the height above the board surface, providing valuable space for the battery and chassis.
- Folded soldering legs on both sides for reinforcement (anti-tearing and anti-peeling)The shell features folded positioning legs on both sides that precisely match the PCB slot edges, greatly increasing the soldering contact area with the PCB board, effectively absorbing the lever stress from high-frequency plugging and unplugging, and preventing pad peeling.
- 16-Pin practical functional layout (5A high-current fast charging + USB 2.0 data transfer): Fully retains VBUS, GND, CC1, CC2, and D+/D- signal channels, perfectly supporting up to 20V/5A (100W) PD protocol fast charging and 480Mbps high-speed data synchronization.
- High-precision drawn stainless steel shell and high-temperature-resistant LCP plasticThe shielding cover achieves high forming precision, ensuring tight gap control with the PCB cutout; the insulating core uses high-temperature-resistant LCP material, easily withstanding the 260°C reflow soldering process.
[Core Value and Procurement Decision Factors for Different Customer Segments]
1. For ID structure and hardware engineers: breaking through the overall thickness limit and optimizing vertical stacking space
The sunk-board structure embeds the connector depth into the PCB, greatly reducing the restriction of side frame openings on device thickness, and combined with standard 2D cutout layout drawings and 3D models, improves iteration efficiency.
2. For SMT process and quality PE engineers: precise placement alignment, preventing solder bridging and cold joints
The folded positioning legs enable precise self-alignment during SMT placement, and the single/double row pins at the tail have high flatness, effectively reducing soldering defects at the PCB cutout edges.
3. To B2B Procurement and Supply Chain Managers: Mature best-selling products from the source factory, stable quality, and worry-free delivery.
