	Universal Serial Bus (USB*) Overview
		USB is arguably the most successful interconnect in computing history.
		USB is now a standard feature on all PCs and makes it much easier for users everywhere to plug in everything from digital cameras to MP3 players to their PCs.
		The specification for USB 2.0 was approved in April 2000.

	Universal Serial Bus (USB)
		The USB connection is of course serial, and the current version (1.1) runs with a maximum throughput of 12 Mbits/second (1.5 Mbytes/second), which is shared by all devices.
		USB's initial acceptance was relatively slow in coming, but once it got going, the variety of USB devices that appeared on the market surprised many people, probably including its developers.
		USB remains popular for hard disks and other storage devices for those who don't have other options; however, in almost every case a higher-speed interface is a better idea if that's at all possible.

	USB - Universal Serial Bus
		USB is a standard port that enables you to connect external devices (such as digital cameras, scanners, and mice) to Windows 98 and Macintosh computers.
		USB is known as a plug and play interface between a computer and a peripheral, such as a mouse, keyboard, digital camera, printer or scanner.
		USB ports actually also provide a 5v power supply, so many devices can be powered directly from your computer (or the hub), so the device may connect to the outside world with only one cable.

	Universal Serial Bus
		Universal Serial Bus, or USB, is a computer standard designed to eliminate the guesswork in connecting peripherals to your PC.
		The major goal of USB was to define an external expansion bus which makes adding peripherals to a PC low cost and as easy as hooking up a telephone to a wall-jack.
		USB featured a maximum bandwidth of 1.5Mbit for low speed devices such as mice and keyboards, and a maximum bandwidth of 12Mbit for higher speed devices such as web cams, printers, scanners and external CD-RW drives.

	Universal Serial Bus - USB
		Short for Universal Serial Bus, USB is a standard that was introduced in 1995 by Intel, Compaq, Microsoft and several other IT computer companies.
		USB 1.x is an external bus standard that supports data transfer rates of 12 Mbps and is capable of supporting up to 127 peripheral devices.
		Hi-speed USB is capable of supporting a transfer rate of up to 480 Mbps and is backwards compatible, meaning it is capable of supporting USB 1.0 and 1.1 devices and cables.

		USB (Universal Serial Bus) is a new external bus developed by Intel, Compaq, DEC, IBM, Microsoft, NEC and Northern Telcom and released to the public in 1996 with the Intel 430HX Triton II Mother Board.
		USB was designed from the ground up to be an interface for communicating with many types of peripherals without the limits and frustrations of older interfaces.
		It provides a 10Mbit/sec serial connection, plus 5v power, for up to 127 peripherals daisy-chained from hubs, and is expected eventually to replace both the serial and parallel ports.

	Universal Serial Bus
		The solution to the problem was a universal connection that would have access directly to a serial bus, thus producing the name Universal Serial Bus.
		There had to be a structure designed for the USB to peripheral interface for software, and a USB to bus interface on the hardware.
		USB 2.0 achieves better speeds by the use of a 40X multiplier, and is estimated electrically to be able to support 480 Mbps (USB-IF USB20.pdf).

	USB Universal Serial Bus notes
		USB is the Universal Serial Bus for connecting peripherals to a PC.
		Uses a universal plug and a universal A to B cable (the A to A cables you sometimes see are wrong and not permitted).
		USB is a packet oriented serial bus, in which the first (and possibly only) packet is always a token (control) packet.

		USB was not designed to be used as the internal bus for connecting CPUs to main memory and other motherboard-resident devices.
		USB is a tree-structured bus, which in the vocabulary of the USB developers organization is called a "Star-Tier topology".
		USB devices consist of one or more "interfaces", which are the physical components of the peripheral that implement the device's abilities.

		Universal Serial Bus The universal serial bus (USB) is a cable communication standard that allows various diverse devices to be connected and communicate.
		USB also allows power to be supplied in the same cable as data - an early example of the usefulness of this feature was the advent of speakers that required no external power.
		USB’s power transfer can also be used to recharge battery powered devices such as mobile phones and MP3 players.

	USB 2.0, Hi Speed USB FAQ
		USB 2.0 has a raw data rate at 480Mbps, and it is rated 40 times faster than its predecessor interface, USB 1.1, which tops at 12Mbps.
		USB flash drives have also reached 33MByte/s, but there seems to be some limitations in the NAND itself so you shouldn't expect their speeds to skyrocket in a next year or two.
		USB hub ports are not as capable or flexible as real PC ports so it's best not to expect the world of them.
