Dear Adafruit community,
I am trying to integrate the Adafruit USB C Breakout Board with the Daisy Seed platform. I am using libdaisy to communicate between the two devices. I would like to test the connection and verify that data can be transferred between the computer and the Daisy Seed via the USB C connection.
Has anyone had experience with this setup? Are there any libraries or examples that I can use as a starting point? I would greatly appreciate any tips or guidance on how to get started with this project.
Thank you for your time and help.
Best regards,
Rasmus from Denmark

Re: Help with Integrating Adafruit USB C Breakout Board with Daisy Seed
This is the first time I've heard of a Daisy Seed.
Assuming it's this one:
https://www.electro-smith.com/daisy/daisy
It looks like the connections are possible. The pinout diagram on that product page shows USB signals D+ and D- on pins 36 and 37, and the USB-ID signal connected to pin 1. Those, along with 5V and GND are the only signals in a pre-USB-C connection.
There won't be any code support.. the connections are entirely in hardware. USB is a high-speed protocol, so keep the wires for D+ and D- as short and straight as possible. The 5V and GND connections will be more flexible, and you can ignore the USB-ID signal.. that's only used for USB-OTG applications where a device can work as either a USB peripheral or a USB Host.
