USB Applications

   
 

USB Sleep-and-charge

USB (Universal Serial Bus), arguably the most successful interconnect technology in computing history, has evolved to leverage its Vbus power to power USB devices as well as charge USB devices. In recognition of this capability, the USB-Implementers Forum (USB-IF) released the USB 1.0 and USB 1.1 charger specifications. The GSM Association has also announced support for the European Union Commissioner's request to standardize on a cellular phone charging specification, surrounding the micro-USB connector.

Get 5Gbps signaling rates with USB 3.0

Delivering 10x the data transfer rate of USB 2.0. Super Speed USB, or USB 3.0, has arrived! The USB 3.0 specification is now fully released and provides users with a data-transfer rate of 5Gbps signaling rates.

Pericom is well positioned for both of these evolving trends. For USB charging, Pericom offers over-voltage protection and device detection/charging support when USB enumeration is not available. For USB 3.0, Pericom provides signal conditioning devices along with switching/muxing solutions. See our latest USB products (PI3USB103 & PI5USB56) or view all USB products.
