To clarify, i look for something like in the image but mini-B instead of micro.
I converted my cable park to a USB-C cable (male to male) and lots of adapers (the short sort you can keep in a box) years ago. Yet i have still some devices with a mini-B female port.
Only thing i found online are cables and everything else. Heck, there’s even mini-DP > C and ethernet > C in that form factor. Are there technical reasons, like different pins than USB-micro or something?
The USB-C (female) adapters are hard to find due to technically being non-compliant. If you’re interested about the reasons and some further context, I can recommend this article: https://hackaday.com/2022/12/27/all-about-usb-c-illegal-adapters/
In your specific case, it’s twice as hard to find such an adapter due to MiniUSB being so uncommon these days.
Ah, so that’s why the C to micro adapter to charge my old Galaxy S3 only works one side.
That’s a very interesting article, thanks!
I’m confused, I just did a quick search and found one on Amazon that’s listed for about $14. Am I missing something here?
Maybe the region, Swiss, Europe? Google and Duckduckgo found nothing.
But thanks, so they do exist.
Can you give me your search term or the brand?
If you need a lot I believe StarTech or CDW can work out a shipment.
“amazon type c to mini usb adapter” is what I googled to get the same result as them. Maybe try the same query directly on your regional Amazon page if Google isn’t helping
Do a search on aliexpress, you’ll get 10 for the $14 linked above
This is on US Amazon. Brand JXMOX.
Ah yes. Good ol JXMOX… a household name in quality electronics.
So glad this is the world we live in where a cat that’s attacking a keyboard can provide company names that fart in and out of existence every month on the monolithic online shopping monopoly site we all basically are forced to use if we need anything since RadioShack, Fry’s, and every single other boutique electronics shop is gone.
Ok, danke, die sind sogar hier verfügbar.
You might be able to find a USB c male to USB b male cable and do without an adapter entirely.
Been there, always a fumbling behind the PC.
USB hub? I have a spare of USB c, mini, and micro running from a hub to a 3x cable mount on my desk. Makes connecting peripherals a breeze.
This thread made me realise how awesome it would be to have a specialized search engine or storefront where you can describe a custom bit of cabling or donglage based on what you need to connect together and search whether anything like that exists.
Even more awesome if it could find the cheapest adapter chain in the case where it doesn’t have it directly
