What Is Micro USB to HDMI Adapter

Micro USB to HDMI adapter, also known as MHL adapter, is developed by more and more manufacturers on account of the growth of the MHL technology. So let’s have a understanding of the MHL technology first.

MHL

MHL, short for Mobile High-Definition Link, is the technical term for an industry-standard mobile audiovisual interface which enables you to connect phones, tablets and other mobile devices to HDTVs and other monitors. This technology is the brainchild of a band of companies including Sony, Samsung, Nokia, Silicon Image and Toshiba. Back in 2010, these companies developed the MHL connection protocol which specifies that mobile devices with Micro USB ports can be connected to HDMI TVs and A/V receivers, leading to the popularity of MHL connection.

To utilize this technology for the connection of your phone with a Micro-USB port and your HDMI TV, the most efficient way is to use a MHL adapter, which carries a Micro USB plug on one end as well as a HDMI port on the other. This Micro USB to HDMI adapter achieves the connection of your phone to your TV by transmitting the signals from your phone into your TV display.
