Molex 1051330021 USB 2.0 Micro-B Receptacle
It is the receptacle half of the micro-B interconnect system, mating with the corresponding micro-B plug commonly found on cables and portable devices. Key features include a shielded shell for EMI protection, gold-plated contacts for corrosion resistance over the rated 10000 mating cycles, and a vertical mounting orientation that keeps the USB port edge-mounted on the board. The connector carries a dual current rating of 1A and 1.8A per contact. This part includes a cover and pick-and-place features, meaning it ships with a protective tape over the contacts and a flat top surface for vacuum nozzle pickup during automated SMT assembly. The shielding material is steel, stainless, which provides robust EMI containment for the USB 2.0 signal pair.
