Most consumer electronics devices will not work with our USB adapters.<\/b> We currently sell two USB adapters for Vernier and Texas Instruments products.<\/p>\n

Go! to Easy Adapter<\/a> (USB-MINI<\/nobr>)<\/h3>\n

This adapter was intended for a Go!Link<\/a> (revision 2 or newer) or Go!Temp<\/a> to be connected to a TI-Nspire or TI-84 calculator<\/a>. It has a USB Standard-A receptacle and a USB Mini-A plug. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Easy to Go! Adapter<\/a> (MINI-USB<\/nobr>)<\/h3>\n

This adapter is to allow the EasyTemp<\/a> or EasyLink<\/a> to connect to a computer for use with Vernier software, such as Graphical Analysis 4<\/a>, or Texas Instruments software, such as TI-84 SmartView<\/a> or TI-Nspire computer software<\/a> . It has a USB Mini-A receptacle and a USB Standard-A plug. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Most consumer devices will not work with our adapters because they generally use USB Mini-B. A USB Mini-B plug does not work with a USB Mini-A receptacle and a USB Mini-A plug does not work with a USB Mini-B receptacle.<\/p>\n

The USB \u201cstandard\u201d is unfortunately confusing with two types of mini plugs. One more consideration is that there is a special type of USB mini receptacle, which is a USB Mini-AB, which is a mini receptacle that can accept USB Mini-A and USB Mini-B plugs.
