Synopsys
Since the introduction of the original USB standard in 1995, the USB interface has become the one of the most successful connectivity standards. In today’s highly connected world, USB connections are found in the computing, consumer, mobile, industrial, and automotive segments. Products are far ranging - from PC’s to portable audio/video players to cell phones and digital TVs. With the trend of increasing data storage requirements driven by applications such as high definition video combined with the desire to move this data quickly between host, storage, and portable devices, it was only a matter a time before there was a need to make this well know standard even faster. This heralds the third generation of this ubiquitous standard - the arrival of USB 3.0. more >>
