Hello there,
I am working on a project where I need to incorporate USB C technology. I am having problem with properly routing the USB C connector. The problem is that when using USB C, one can insert the plug to the socket in 2 ways. depending on which side it is inserted (A or B), the A pins or B pins are connected. If you want to be ready for both sides insertion, both A and B part has to be connected. It is problematic, since the pins are "crossed". Please take a look at the attached screen. I am trying to route the 12401548E4#2A connectors DP and DN lines there (US0_P and SDB0_N differential lines). B7 pad is crossed with A7 (same for A6 and B6)... To route this, one has to place at least one of the traces on the bottom layer. Even if the length is matched, it is only matched for 1 plugging scenario and the other part of the trace is left as a STUB...
I am quite confused on routing this properly. I would appreciate all help from someone routing USB C connectors before.
