USB 2.0 Female Chassis Header to DIP 4-Pin Straight Adapter Board
A compact PCB adapter that converts a USB 2.0 Type-A female chassis connector to a standard 2.54mm DIP (through-hole) 4-pin header, breaking out the four USB 2.0 signals — VBUS (+5V), D−, D+, and GND — to breadboard-compatible pins. Ideal for prototyping USB host interfaces, USB data cable testing, and integrating USB connectivity into Arduino, STM32, and custom PCB projects without soldering directly to a USB connector.

Typical Applications
- Arduino USB Host Projects: Connect to Arduino USB Host Shield or CH559/MAX3421E USB host controller for USB keyboard, mouse, and HID device interfacing
- USB Data Cable Testing: Break out USB signals to a multimeter or oscilloscope for D+/D− signal analysis and cable continuity testing
- DIY USB Charger: Tap VBUS (+5V) and GND for 5V power supply in custom charger and power distribution projects
- STM32 / ESP32 USB OTG: Provide a panel-mount USB-A female port for STM32 and ESP32-S2/S3 USB OTG host mode projects
- Breadboard Prototyping: Insert directly into a breadboard to prototype USB interface circuits without soldering a USB connector
- Custom Enclosure USB Port: Mount the USB-A female connector in a panel cutout and route the DIP header to an internal PCB
FAQ
Q: Does this adapter support USB 3.0?
A: No. This adapter breaks out USB 2.0 signals only (VBUS, D−, D+, GND). USB 3.0 SuperSpeed signals (SS+, SS−) are not present on the USB Type-A female connector used in this adapter.
Q: Can I use this to power a 5V project from a USB host?
A: Yes. Connect VBUS (Pin 1) and GND (Pin 4) to your circuit for up to 500mA at 5V from a standard USB 2.0 host port. For higher current, use a USB power adapter with a dedicated power-only cable.
Q: Is the DIP header pre-soldered?
A: Yes. The 4-pin 2.54mm DIP header is pre-soldered to the PCB and ready for breadboard or perfboard insertion.
