USB OTG have normally a special plug. I know the miniUSB and microUSB standard with 5 pins (and diverent housing for type A (host), type B (device) and type AB (OTG)) and pin 4 defines the ID (if GND than type A, if open than type B). Details see (found only in german language): http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/OTG#Farbkodierung_und_Pinouts More details you can found at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_On-The-Go http://www.usb.org/developers/onthego/ > As far as I know it does not supply power to the bus (that's part of > what OTG does), and it can't charge via USB.
