The USB connector for DEV-16771 is labeled in all the docs as a “USB Host Port”. There is NO USB CONNECTOR by that name. It looks like it is either a USB Mini-A, USB Mini-B, USB Micro-A, or USB Micro-B. Can someone tell me which USB connector it is so that I can buy the appropriate cable? And secondly, why doesn’t the online docs for that device specify the USB port type? Thanks in advance.
Hey there, sorry for the confusion.
It is in fact a micro-B connector.
This cable should workk: USB Micro-B Cable - 6 Foot - SparkFun Electronics
We will also take a look at the product page and see if we can call out specifically what connector this is.
I hope this helps.
Thank you so very much. Will order one now. Seriously, thank you.
My pleasure.
Cheers for now.
Note that the micro-B USB connector is the Teensy USB Device connection. For example, plug this into your PC and you can see the Teensy, typically as a serial device (COM port on Windows). In the product description, the USB Host port refers to 5 plated-through-holes that allow the Teensy to be a USB Host. You have to solder in your own connector or wires for this. Using the USB Host port you can, for example, connect a keyboard or mouse to the Teensy. So the Teensy 4.1 has two USB port easily accessible, but you will probably only use the micro-B connection.
