USB is an industry-standard used to specify cables, connectors, and protocols that are used for communication between electronic devices. USB ports and cables are used to connect hardware such as printers , scanners , keyboards, mice, flash drives , external hard drives , joysticks , cameras , monitors , and more to computers of all kinds.
The USB Implementers Forum introduced the Media Agnostic USB (MA-USB) v.1.0 wireless communication standard based on the USB protocol on 29 July 2015. Wireless USB is a cable-replacement technology, and uses ultra-wideband wireless technology for data rates of up to 480 Mbit/s. [103]
The USB 3.0 specification defined a new architecture and protocol, named SuperSpeed, which included a new lane for providing full-duplex data transfers that physically required five additional wires and pins, while also adding a new signal coding scheme (8b/10b symbols, 5 Gbit/s; also known later as Gen 1), and preserving the USB 2.0 ...
In computing, the USB human interface device class (USB HID class) is a part of the USB specification for computer peripherals: it specifies a device class (a type of computer hardware) for human interface devices such as keyboards, mice, touchscreen, game controllers and alphanumeric display devices.
Every USB4 port must support the USB4 protocol/connections, which is a distinct standard to establish USB4 links / connections between USB4 devices that exists in parallel to previous USB protocols. Unlike USB 2.0 and USB 3.x it does not provide a way to transfer data directly, but rather it is a mere container that can contain multiple ...
Power Delivery protocols have been updated to facilitate USB-C features such as cable ID function, Alternate Mode negotiation, increased V BUS currents, and V CONN-powered accessories. As of USB Power Delivery specification revision 2.0, version 1.2, the six fixed power profiles for power sources have been deprecated. [67]
The USB mass storage device class (also known as USB MSC or UMS) is a set of computing communications protocols, specifically a USB Device Class, defined by the USB Implementers Forum that makes a USB device accessible to a host computing device and enables file transfers between the host and the USB device. To a host, the USB device acts as an ...
USB communications device class (or USB CDC) is a composite Universal Serial Bus device class. The communications device class is used for computer networking devices akin to a network card , providing an interface for transmitting Ethernet or ATM frames onto some physical media.
