DescriptionThe Grove to USB-C adapter is a compact board for connecting Grove interface modules to the D+ and D- pins of a USB-C connector. This USB-C download adapter is designed for M5Stack module projects that need a simple path from Grove IO pins to a modern USB-C interface.When paired with devices that support USB-C download functionality, such as ESP32-S3 based hardware, the board can support program downloading and integrated CDC functionality. The small board format makes this Grove connector adapter useful for prototypes, education labs, sensor projects, and maker builds.The USB-C download adapter reduces wiring complexity by replacing loose jumpers with a stable physical interface. Use the Grove connector adapter when a project needs reliable D+ and D- signal routing, compact integration, and convenient access to a USB-C connection.Features Grove to USB-C adapter for routing Grove IO pins to USB-C D+ and D- pins USB-C download adapter for devices that support USB-C program download and CDC functions Grove connector adapter helps avoid complex jumper wiring during prototyping Compact and lightweight board for embedded projects and portable test setups Stable physical interface helps maintain reliable signal transfer Suitable for computers, tablets, smartphones, and other modern USB-C hosts when the connected device supports the required function Specifications Connection Type Grove interface to USB-C D+ and D- pins Supported Functions Program download and integrated CDC when supported by the connected device Typical Compatible Device Example ESP32-S3 based hardware with USB-C download support Dimensions 20 x 13 x 7mm Package Size 136 x 92 x 20mm Product Weight 6.6g Package Weight 8.7g Applications Electronic prototyping with Grove interface modules Education and learning projects that need a simple USB-C connection IoT projects using USB-C download capable hardware Sensor applications that need D+ and D- routing through a compact adapter Maker and DIY projects using a Grove connector adapter in small builds Product List5 x Grove to USB-C adapterOther ContentBefore using the adapter board, confirm that the target device supports USB-C download or CDC functions through the connected pins. The board provides physical routing and does not add USB protocol conversion, voltage translation, or firmware capability by itself.For reliable results, check the Grove pin mapping and the USB-C D+ and D- routing against the schematic before connecting a new board. The USB-C download adapter is best used where the host, cable, and target device all support the intended function, and the Grove connector adapter should be kept mechanically secure during repeated plug-in cycles.Resources Product documentation Schematic PDF Model size diagram FAQWhat does the Grove to USB-C adapter do?The board routes Grove interface IO pins to the D+ and D- pins of a USB-C connector for compatible module projects.Can this USB-C download adapter download programs by itself?No. The USB-C download adapter provides the physical connection. Program download and CDC operation require a connected device that already supports those functions.What devices can use this Grove connector adapter?The Grove connector adapter is intended for M5Stack module projects and devices such as ESP32-S3 based hardware that support USB-C download functionality.How many boards are included?The package includes 5 adapter boards.
