Is it possible for connections to be on the back? I honestly don't understand why people continue to put the ports on the side.

Not an engineer, but wouldn't that require one of the smallest daughter boards imaginable?

andrewtranimalI swear I've seen one. But majority are like this, sadly. I mean at the end of the day you could just get a "u-shape" adapter to basically achieve the same thing.

andrewtranimalThis would definitely affect the depth of the enclosure, although if you went with something like an HDMI mini with a 90-degree connector, it could then be routed to the daughter board without giving up space. Not sure why we don't see more of that type of solution.

torgnyIt is absolutely achievable as a ribbon cable could move the signal to a tiny adapter board. Due to the low volume nature of these products though, it would be a rediculous amount of money just to move the cables on the PCB that is probably sourced

TechnetYes exactly. Those tiny ribbon cables are also another point of failure and can't be easily sourced in my experience.

andrewtranimalIt might no need a daughterboard. Vertically mounted ports for SMT assembly are a thing. They can be more susceptible to wear and damage, and may cost more and not be as easy for the assembly house to install. As others have pointed out, this would also likely affect the depth of the device.

Keebmonkey is sourcing parts and putting them in an case. I bet you can find the exact screen on the china wholesaler sites. The inputs are on the side bc they are made to lay flat for DIY ardruneo and raspberry Pi projects or other home brew projects.

Is this a usb c or usb micro for power?

Answer

It is microUSB for power, not USB type C. The microUSB is also necessary for communicating touchscreen interaction to the connected device, so power & data to be specific (unless you want display-only non-touchscreen, a USB charger plugged into an outlet may work in that scenario.)
