4 Technology and components USB features The Universal Serial Bus, or well known as USB was introduced to the PC world in 1996 which dramatically simplified the connection between host computer and peripheral devices such as mice and keyboards, external hard drive or optical devices, Bluetooth and many more peripheral devices in the market. Let's take a quick look on the USB evolution referencing to the table below. Table 3. USB evolution Type Data Transfer Rate Category Introduction Year USB 3.0/USB 3.
commonly known as USB 2.0 and 1.1 respectively, the slower modes still operate at 480Mbps and 12Mbps respectively and are kept to maintain backward compatibility. USB 3.0/USB 3.1 Gen 1 achieves the much higher performance by the technical changes below: • An additional physical bus that is added in parallel with the existing USB 2.0 bus (refer to the picture below). • USB 2.0 previously had four wires (power, ground, and a pair for differential data); USB 3.0/USB 3.
Compatibility The good news is that USB 3.0/USB 3.1 Gen 1 has been carefully planned from the start to peacefully co-exist with USB 2.0. First of all, while USB 3.0/USB 3.1 Gen 1 specifies new physical connections and thus new cables to take advantage of the higher speed capability of the new protocol, the connector itself remains the same rectangular shape with the four USB 2.0 contacts in the exact same location as before.
• Audio HDMI supports multiple audio formats from standard stereo to multichannel surround sound • HDMI combines video and multichannel audio into a single cable, eliminating the cost, complexity, and confusion of multiple cables currently used in A/V systems • HDMI supports communication between the video source (such as a DVD player) and the DTV, enabling new functionality Technology and components 53
