USB, short for Universal Serial Bus, is an industry standard developed in the mid-1990s that
defines the cables, connectors and communications protocolsused in a bus for connection,
communication, and power supply betweencomputers and electronic devices.[2]
USB was designed to standardize the connection of computer peripherals(including
keyboards, pointing devices, digital cameras, printers, portable media players, disk
drives and network adapters) to personal computers, both to communicate and to supply electric
power. It has become commonplace on other devices, such as smartphones, PDAs and video
game consoles.[3] USB has effectively replaced a variety of earlier interfaces, such
as serial andparallel ports, as well as separate power chargers for portable devices.
The original USB 1.0 specification, which was introduced in January 1996, defined data transfer
rates of 1.5 Mbit/s "Low Speed" and 12 Mbit/s "Full Speed".[11] The first widely used version of
USB was 1.1, which was released in September 1998. The 12 Mbit/s data rate was intended for
higher-speed devices such as disk drives, and the lower 1.5 Mbit/s rate for low data rate devices
such as joysticks.[12]
The USB 2.0 specification was released in April 2000 and was ratified by the USB Implementers
Forum (USB-IF) at the end of 2001. Hewlett-Packard, Intel, Lucent Technologies (now AlcatelLucent), NEC and Philips jointly led the initiative to develop a higher data transfer rate, with the
resulting specification achieving 480 Mbit/s, a 40-times increase over the original USB 1.1
specification.
The USB 3.0 specification was published on 12 November 2008. Its main goals were to increase
the data transfer rate (up to 5 Gbit/s), decrease power consumption, increase power output, and
be backward compatible with USB 2.0.[13] USB 3.0 includes a new, higher speed bus called
SuperSpeed in parallel with the USB 2.0 bus.[14] For this reason, the new version is also called
SuperSpeed.[15] The first USB 3.0 equipped devices were presented in January 2010.[15][16]
As of 2008, approximately six billion USB ports and interfaces were in the global marketplace,
and about two billion were being sold each year.[17]
In December 2014, USB-IF submitted USB 3.1, USB Power Delivery 2.0 and USB TypeC specifications to the IEC (TC 100 Audio, video and multimedia systems and equipment) for
inclusion in the international standard IEC 62680 "Universal Serial Bus interfaces for data and
power", which is currently based on USB 2.0.
Mini-DIN connector
The mini-DIN connectors are a family of multi-pin electrical connectors used in a variety of
applications. Mini-DIN connectors are 9.5 mm in diameter and come in seven patterns, with the
number of pins from three to nine. Each pattern is keyed in such a way that a plug with one
pattern cannot be mated with any socket of another pattern. An important aspect of why each of
these 7 mini-DIN connectors are official standards is because they are each drastically different
from the other. The pin numbering for the plugs shown above is done left to right, bottom row to
top row. Pin 1 will be on the lower left, and the highest pin number will be on the upper right.
Registered jack
A Registered Jack (RJ) is a standardized telecommunication network interface for connecting
voice and data equipment to a service provided by a local exchange carrier or long distance
carrier. The specification includes physical construction, wiring, and signal semantics.
Accordingly, registered jacks are primarily named by the letters RJ, followed by two digits that
express the type. Additionally, letter suffixes indicate minor variations. For example, RJ11, RJ14,
andRJ25 are the most commonly used interfaces for telephone connections for one-, two-, and
three-line service, respectively. The same six-position plug and jack commonly used for
telephone line connections may be used for RJ11, RJ14 or even RJ25, all of which are names of
interface standards that use this physical connector. The RJ11 standard dictates a 2-wire
connection, while RJ14 uses a 4-wire configuration, and RJ25 uses all six wires. The RJ
abbreviations, though, only pertain to the wiring of the jack (hence the name registered jack); it is
commonplace, but not strictly correct, to refer to an unwired plug connector by any of these
names.

For example, RJ11 comes in two forms: RJ11W is a jack from which a wall telephone can be
hung, while RJ11C is a jack designed to have a cord plugged into it. (A cord can be plugged into
an RJ11W as well.)
D-subminiature
The D-subminiature or D-sub is a common type of electrical connector. They are named for
their characteristic D-shaped metal shield. When they were introduced, D-subs were among the
smallest connectors used on computer systems.
Typical applications
Communications ports
The widest application of D-subs is for RS-232 serial communications,
Network ports
DE9 connectors were used for some token ring networks as well as other computer networks.
The Attachment Unit Interfaces that were used with 10BASE5 "thick net" in the 1980s and 1990s
used DA15 connectors for connectivity between the Medium Attachment Units and
(Ethernet) network interface cards.
Other
The early Macintosh and late Apple II computers used an obscure 19-pin D-sub for connecting to
external floppy disk drives. Atari also used this connector on their 16-bit computer range for
attaching hard disc drives and the Atari laser printer
