How USB gets power

Digital camera is an IR detector

Ever wonder how USB devices such as your phone, GPS devices, webcams get power? Turns out it isn’t complicated at all.

Check out our video explaining more and demo'ing with a USB powering one of our EEME hands-on projects.


Word of caution and warning - if you try the experiment in the video at home - where you plug in a stripped USB wire into your computer or power adapter - you run the risk of damaging your equipment if not handled carefully.

With that said…

Learn with our Python Coding and Electronics learning kit, and foster your family's future technologist!

Have fun and happy building!
