Often Micro USB male plugs are cable mounted and supplied as part of a cable assembly, however USB3150 is vertical PCB mounted, which allows it to be used in docking charging applications. A great example is the new launch of worlds smallest phone charger ‘Nipper‘ – currently on Kickstarter – using this part.

'Nipper' uses AA batteries to give your gadgets an emergency boost
  • Nipper charger was created by two students from Brunel University
