What is MICROUSB connector? What are the types?

The Micro USB connector is a small USB connector used to connect electronic devices to computers for data transfer and charging. It is a standard specification for the USB (Universal Serial Bus) interface and was earlier widely used in consumer electronics such as mobile devices, digital cameras, smartphones, and tablet computers.
The Micro USB connector has a small plug in the shape of a flat rectangle with five metal contacts on one side for data transfer and power connection. Compared to earlier USB connectors, Micro USB connectors are smaller, more portable, and can be designed with a reverse plug that eliminates the need to care about the orientation of the plug.
The main types of Micro USB connectors include the following:
Micro USB Type-A: This is the most common type of Micro USB connector, which has a flat plug on one side and is suitable for connecting computers, chargers, and other USB devices.
Micro USB Type-B: This connector type has a flat plug on one side and a narrower connector on the other side and is used to connect mobile devices, digital cameras, etc.
Micro USB Type-AB: This connector type combines the features of Micro USB Type-A and Type-B, and can adapt to both Type-A and Type-B interfaces. It is usually used for some special applications such as OTG (On-The-Go) devices.
Micro USB 3.0: The Micro USB 3.0 connector is an upgraded version of the Micro USB connector with more metal contacts and higher transfer speeds for devices that support USB 3.0.
Micro USB connector types and specifications can be selected based on their use and device requirements. Each connector type has its own standards and specifications to ensure compatibility and reliability. It should be noted that Micro USB connectors are gradually being replaced as USB Type-C becomes more popular, but are still widely used in some older models of devices.
