What is SuperSpeed USB 3.0?
SuperSpeed USB 3.0 offers significant performance enhancements, improved power efficiency and greater power delivery options relative to other USB standards, all without compromising compatibility with the billions of USB-enabled devices currently in use around the world. As OEMs look to develop end products with SuperSpeed USB 3.0, many questions arise about the standard's capabilities and other issues such as the availability of hardware to support new designs.
Join Avnet Electronics Marketing's Matt Burns for a brief webcast that will explore the following topics:
- USB 3.0 specification overview
- Features and benefits
- Basic host controller block diagram
- Ancillary components (PHYs, clock sources, USB connectors and circuit protection devices)
- Texas Instruments' TUSB1310 discrete SuperSpeed PHY
- Tyco Electronics' SuperSpeed USB host connectors, circuit protection and cable assemblies
Don't miss this opportunity to become an early USB 3.0 adopter and to jump start your development efforts with this exciting new standard.
