Worlds tiniest multi-function card reader sits flush against the laptop


When the OTG Tiny Reader is connected to a laptop or computer, its outer edge aligns with the outside edge of a laptop or computer, thus protecting the user from data loss or disconnection while in use due to accidental jarring.

USA, January 15, 2015 – MICRODIA Semiconductor Ltd. (MICRODIA), a world leader in flash memory technologies, today announced the world’s smallest On-The-Go (OTG) card reader with USB flash drive and card-eject functions. The OTG Tiny Reader sits flush against a laptop or computer when plugged in. There is no danger of inadvertently colliding with a protruding data storage device, thus mitigating the loss of data or connection while in use.

It can also remain connected to the laptop while travelling. And because it sits flush with the edge of the laptop, the OTG Tiny Reader is inconspicuous, thus helps prevent theft of the device. This extra security feature ensures users can travel with peace of mind. An eject switch provides a convenient method for hot-swapping a securely-ensconced microSD card. The OTG Tiny Reader is especially suited for work and travel.

The OTG Tiny Reader is a pragmatic miniscule device that comprises a triumvirate of functions. It can be used as a removable USB flash drive with potentially unlimited data storage thanks to its support of microSDHC flash memory cards from 4GB to 32GB. The OTG Tiny Reader is also able to take on the role of a permanent external computer data storage device. Employed as a card reader, users can switch between multiple microSDHC flash memory cards without first ejecting them via the USB function on a computer or laptop.

While the OTG Tiny Reader measures only 22 x 16 x 7 mm (including connector), it can read and write at speeds of up to 5.0GBps. The OTG Tiny Reader also supports Windows and Mac operating systems and is backwards compatible with USB2.0. It is available now in piano white or piano black.

“This is a powerful total OTG solution that maximizes consumers’ efficiency,” said Mr. Louis Leung, CEO of MICRODIA Ltd. “It was designed and built to meet the needs of the multi-tasking consumer.”
