Mini USB cables are a type of USB (Universal Serial Bus) connection that were commonly used in many electronic devices before being largely replaced by the Micro USB and USB-C standards. They are characterized by a small, trapezoidal connector, typically measuring around 3 x 7 mm.

Specifications:

• Data Transfer Speeds: Up to USB 2.0 standards, which means a maximum theoretical speed of 480 Mbps
• Pin Configuration: Usually 5 pins (VCC, D-, D+, ID, GND)
• Current Capacity: Up to 500 mA at 5V (depending on the USB specification)

Usage:

Mini USB cables were widely used for:

• Older Digital Cameras and Camcorders: For data transfer and charging.
• External Hard Drives and Enclosures: For connecting to computers.
• MP3 Players and Portable Audio Devices: For data synchronization and power.
• GPS Units: For map updates and charging.
• Gaming Consoles and Controllers: Such as the PlayStation 3 controllers.
