I am trying to create a USB-C to USB-C Power Monitoring System. I am not touching the superspeed lines, CC and USB 2.0 lines other than passing the signal to allow this board act as a wire. My purpose is monitor the V-BUS voltage & current. My initial design works fine, but I have polarity issues on the connectors. I connect one way works great, rotate the USB C and I get nothing. I have tried several different designs of mapping the signal (SSRX#/SSTx#) from one end to other. Tried typing SSRX1 & SSRX2 together to route to the other end and etc.
I am now thinking that maybe a re-driver is my answer such as TUSB1042I. Do you think a design like this will resolved my issue of polarity of the USB-C connector?
