In 2007, I wrote a two-part series titled “Which USB is Right for your Application†for Planet Analog. Since then, several new and different “versions†of USB have been released. In this article, I discuss how they have been deployed in the market in the almost five years since.
Also, I address SuperSpeed USB (USB 3.0) and its impact on the USB market. I would also be remiss if I do not address Thunderboltâ„¢ Technology as well and its impact on PC interfaces moving towards the future.
We will close this article by discussing some recently announced new initiatives from the USB-IF aimed to enhance the end consumer experience with USB.
