Made: Schematic, PCB and SilkScreen on the PCB

This is for 20 year old xbox 360 controller that i have and the cable broke so i decided to make a USB C break out for it

Lukas

First i started on the Schematic which is a pretty simple Schematic but this time i’m way more experienced with and I now know exactly how to make things that work and are well made

I chose some general components:

  • USB C: USB_C_Receptacle_HCTL_HC-TYPE-C-16P-01A
  • Pin Header: PinHeader_1x04_P2.54mm_Vertical
  • 5.1k Resistors: R_0603_1608Metric

These will be easy to solder on my hotplate and good and reliable

Then i moved on to the PCB
Which first i made the edge cuts so i know exactly where to place the components.

Then wired up everything and made sure that the Pin Headers were oriented the right way because they are really easy to mess up and your controller will fry up

I also added a bit of silkscreen to make everything more beautiful

Made sure that everything was right by running ERC for schematic and DRC for PCB and they were good (a few errors but from experience I know you can ignore them)

  • ERC = Electrical Rules Checker
  • DRC = Design Rules Checker

And then i exported the final design files and that’s it!
