Hello all, my name is Dina Rahayu from the faculty of computer science, reguler A. in this vidio i will explain what is OTG and what does it for us. oke first
What does USB OTG mean
and function?
USB OTG (On The Go) is a specification of
USB 2.0 that makes Android devices such as smartphones or tablets act as a host
or master to other devices connected to it, such as a USB Flashdrive, digital
camera, printer, keyboard or mouse.In other words, with this USB OTG your
smartphone device can control other devices connected to it. Smartphones will
know what to do if there is a device such as a USB Flashdrive, or digital
camera, or keyboard that is connected to a smartphone. Almost like a computer
or laptop that controls an external device such as a keyboard or mouse that is
plugged in via a USB port
Does my
andoid device support USB OTG?
There are
saveral ways to find out whether our android device support USB OTG or not,
including:
- If your android has been produced in the past 3 years, most likely it already support USB OTG
- Look at the product packaging. If there is a USB OTG logo, it means that support USB OTG
- Finally, use a special application such as USB OTG checker which you can download on the playstore. This application can help determine whether you android device support USB OTG or not.
Suggestion : In order to use it with saveral external devices. you should also use a USB hub with a charger port. we can use a charger or power bank to keep the android device battery from drainning. or you can also use a USB OTG which is a compelete with a USB hub + charger port as shown below.
okey, that's the explanation of the USB OTG and USB cable from me, Thanks you for your attention.
Stay safe whatever you are, see you again on my next blog.
What are the benefits of USB OTG?
The benefits are of course very many. With USB OTG you can make your
android device like a computer. Devices thatr so far can only be ''read'' on a
computer or laptop, with USB OTG these devices can also be read on android
devices. For example, by using USB OTG we can directly save data on a android
into a flashdrive while traveling without having to go trough a cimputer firts.
there the memory of our android device is unlimited.
USB OTG
Cable
To take advantage of this USB OTG function, beside the android device
already support USB OTG, or USB OTG cetified, USB OTG cable are different from
ordinary USB cable, The USB OTG cable has a special design that tells the android
device to act as a host or master to other device conected to it.
Physically, this cable is like an ordinary cable, one
end is a type B male micro USB that is plugged into an android device the same
as yhe end of the USB charger cable that is plugged into anddroid. while the
other end is a type A female USB type which is the same as the port USB on a
laptop or computer. So thet external device such as flash drive, keyboards and
mice that are indeed the end of the USB cable type A male can be pluggin into
the end of the USB OTG cable.
