But USB cable and OTG cable look so similar, so what are the differences between OTG cable with USB cable? Let’s check out together!

    for the less techy people, I agree it could have done with a clear verbal explainer about the significance of the output voltage. What this means is that it allows the mobile device to power other devices over the USB cable. So, you can now an external hdd directly to the mobile, and the mobile will power it up and be able to access it. Ordinary USB cable, the power travels the OTHER way, towards the phone, like when you're charging it.

    OK, but how can you tell if your cable is OTG or just USB, without cutting it and using a meter?
    Is there a recognised OTG symbol or variation of the USB symbol?

      Hi. I need to do a OTG for a fire stick 2nd gen. In my country i cant find this, and buy outside is expensive and "a problem" in my country. So, can you show me how to do that?? is a usb micro male, and usb micro female, and a usb female. Can you give me a hand?? Thanks.

  • @erniejavier

    This post was 4 years ago. The normal USB has 4 pins, while the OTG has 5 pins. It added the 'sense'. The OTG inside the phone should be enabled. Nowadays, phones defaults to OTG-enabled. My share. I stand corrected. 🙏🙂

    i made a USB OTG cable by shorting pin 4 to pin 5 and connected it to the phone , I connected a wireless mouse succesfully.
    out of curiosity i used the multimeter to check the voltage on the OTG cable (just like you tested in this video where the voltage was duly registered) and my phone just went dead !!!
    Why did this happen ?
    Can somebody explain ?

    micro usb has 5 wires bro . the difference between an otg cable and a standard micro usb is the wire next to the ground is shorted out to the ground. this is how a micro usb designates the host device . if the wire is shorted its a host adapter if it isnt its just assumes you want to charge or transfer data

    • @ncshuriken
      @ncshuriken Před 5 lety +5

      But it DOES "explain" the difference, just in a "different" way than expected, and of course, without words.
      As we can see, the normal USB-C doesn't output any voltage from the phone. I think this means it can only receive voltage /power from external devices. In other words, it cant be used to provide "USB power" (like a PC, console, TV does) which is something like 5.5 volts, to external devices, EG, Wacom Tablet or a tiny speaker that needs to be powered externally (IE, passive).
      The OTG cable clearly outputs voltage, as you can see on the multimeter. That means it can be used to power external devices that dont have their own power supply (EG they dont run on batteries, or mains power) such as a Wacom Tablet.

    I thing he showed us the difference between usb and otg is that. Usb is an input which means current flows to the phone that’s why the volt meter has no reading meanwhile Otg are used as an output which means the phone is the one who sends current (data) away that’s why he was able to light up the bulb.
