SD Card Module Slot Socket Reader to USB - Help please

In summary, the conversation discusses using the SD Card Module Slot Socket Reader Module as a micro SD card reader directly connected to a PC. The question is whether it is possible to connect a USB male connector to the module and use it as a normal SD card reader. John clarifies that he is not using an Arduino, just a simple connection between the SD card, module, USB male, and PC. Borek and Dave suggest using a USB-based SD card reader instead of reinventing the wheel.

Any particular reason to make your life harder by using this reader instead of any USB based SD card readers?
 
  • #3
you still need the interfacing control circuitry to go between the that SD card unit and the USB cable

As Borek said ... why do you want to make life difficult for yourself ? ... multi-card to USB ports are dirt cheap
why reinvent the wheel ?
