The USB-C iPhone Mod - Proof of Concept

Do you know about an interesting RESEARCH PROJECT? I’m looking for a Master’s thesis project, starting March 2022, academia or industry! ----- I’m building the World’s First iPhone with a USB Type-C port. It needs to support charging and data transfers. This first part is about getting the electronics to work. I explain the challenges I faced and show the DIY prototype. The next step will be to reverse-engineer the Apple C94 connector and make my own PCB with a female USB C port.
