 INTRODUCTION

Universal serial bus (USB) ports are the standard

connection for a variety of electronic peripherals, from
printers and digital cameras to flash drives and scanners.

Implemented to provide a replacement for legacy ports to

make the addition of peripheral devices quick and easier
for user.

The latest version of USB is named as USB 3.0 or

SUPERSPEED USB.

Provides an expandable, fast, bi-directional, low cost

serial hardware interface.
 HISTORY

 There have been three versions released prior to 3.0

 USB 1.0 in January 1996 – data rates of 1.5 Mbps and 12

Mbps

 USB 1.1 in September 1998 – first widely used version of

USB

 USB 2.0 in April 2000-Major feature revision was the

addition of a high speed transfer rate of 480 Mbps
……………….
…………
 USB 3.0 NOW

 It was developed on Nov 17,2008

 It is also called as SUPERSPEED technology

 Why The Upgrade ??
 Mainly the need for faster transfer rates in
devices such as hard drives, flash card
readers, and DVD, Blu-ray, and HD DVD
optical drives
 User applications demanding a higher
performance connection between the PC and
peripherals
 Need for greater energy efficiency in today’s
“greener world”
 USB 3.0 FEATURES
 10x performance increase over USB 2.0

 Backward Compatible

 Same USB Device model

 Low power consumption

 Hot swappable-easily plug and play no reboot

……….
 Lower software overhead

 Compatibility-full duplex

 Longer maximum cable length

 ARHCITECTURE

USB 3.0 utilizes a dual-

bus architecture that
provides backward
compatibility with USB
2.0.It provides for
simultaneous operation of
SuperSpeed and non-
SuperSpeed information
exchanges
 USB 3.0 is a physical SuperSpeed bus combined in
parallel with a physical USB 2.0 bus

It has similar architectual components as USB 2.0

 USB 3.0 interconnect

 USB 3.0 devices
 USB 3.0 host
PIN OUTS
USB 3.0 connectors AND cable goals
 Deliver low cost connectors and cable
assemblies solutions to meet USB 3.0
architecture and performance needs.

 Support 5Gbps data rate

 Manage compatibility with USB 2.0

 Comprehend ease-of-use aspects

USB 3.0 Standard A Connector
 Same interface as the USB 2.0 Standard-A
Connector ,but with added pins for
SuperSpeed USB signals
 Complete compatibility with USB 2.0
Standard-A connector
 Double-stacked connectors supported
USB 3.0 Standard-B connector
 Defined for relatively large, stationery
peripherals such as hard drives and printers
 Visually different from USB 2.0 Standard-B
connector
USB 3.0 Micro Connector Family
 Defined for hand held devices
 Backward compatible with USB 2.0 Micro
connectors
 Based on USB 2.0 Micro-B connector with an
extended portion for the SuperSpeed USB
signals
 CABLE
 Unshielded Twisted Pairs (UTP) cable used
for USB 2.0 cannot be used for Superspeed
USB
 Shielded differential pairs (SDP) twisted or
twinax is for SUPERSPEED USB
this is for singal integrity and EMI containment
 CABLE LENGTH
 USB 1.0 maximum cable length is 3 metres
(9.8 ft)

 USB 2.0 maximum cable length is 5 metres

(16 ft)

 USB 3.0 cable assembly may be of any

length as long as all requirements defined in
the specification are met.
 ADVANTAGES
 Higher transfer rates ( upto 4.8Gbps)

 Increased maximum bus power and

increased device current draw to better
accommodate power-hungry devices

 New power management features

 Full-duplex data transfers and support for

new transfer types
 New connectors and cables for higher speed
data transfer...although they are backwards
compatible with USB 2.0 devices and
computers.
 APPLICATION

 USB is an important interface technology for vision applications

 USB 3.0 has an opportunity to take over many applications

currently serviced by Camera Link

 USB implements connections to storage devices using a set of

standards called the USB mass storage device class

 USB 3.0 also supports portable hard disk drives .The earlier
versions were not supporting the 3.5 inch hard disk drives

 High resolution webcams, video surveillance cameras

USB 3.0 vs.OTHER STANDARDS

 FIREWIRE 1394 has a maximum data tranfer

rate of 800Mbps.

 eSATA has a maximum data transfer of

about 3.2Gbps
 CONCLUSION

The universal serial bus 3.0 is supporting a

speed of about 5Gb/sec i.e. ten times faster
than the 2.0 version.

So hopefully by the help of this Superspeed

data tranfer rate the USB 3.0 will be replacing
many of the connectors in the future.
