USB 3.0
The new superspeed USB 3.0 is the next generation of universal serial bus that enhances the communication between host computers and the peripheral devices. USB 3.0 is going to co-exist with USB 2.0. USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices are compatible with USB 3.0 ports and connectors. However, they will not achieve USB 3.0 speeds or take advantage of USB 3.0 features.
USB 3.0 features:
- Higher transfer rate (upto 4.8 GBS)
- Increased maximum bus power and increased device current draw to satisfy the need of those devices that require more power.
- Better power management feature to reduce active and idle power requirements.
- Full-duplex data transfers and support for new transfer types.
- New backward compatible cable and connectors to support higher data transfer.
