How does a block erupters inner workings work?

I believe it is a USB mining "tool" which uses ASIC (

application-specific integrated circuit

), but it seems to me that these are highly outdated, and that making a profit with them is nearly impossible.

Some more information about asics can be found here - > https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/ASIC


Here's some of these "block erupters" you're talking about, https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/block-erupter-usb-beginners-guide/

yes, these are outdated ASIC USB miners.

If you want some up to date search for GekkoScience 2pac or moonlander2 (for LTC mining)
