Hi, when debugging why a USB-C to USB-C cable wouldn't even get power on a MacBook Pro port, I stumbled across the schematics for the QuickLogic thing+
Unfortunately the USB-C implementation is 100% out of spec -- it doesn't connect the CC1/CC2 pins to anything (!) when it needs to connect them to ground via a 5.1k termination resistor.
