Multiple issues orphan June 2009 onesource June 2009 cleanup June 2009 InterChip USB IC USB is an addendum to the USB Forum s USB 2.0 specification. IC USB is intended as a low power variant of the standard physical USB interface, and is made possible by intending its use for direct chip to chip communications and by restricting the length of the IC USB bus to no more than 10 cm in length. This results in a lower inductance and capacitance, and therefore lower power requirements. IC USB is being used primarily in embedded systems and standards. One of the most relevant areas of application is in mobile phones, where for instance ETSI , in specification TS 102 600 has standardized on IC USB as the official high speed interface for connections between the phone s main chipset and the SIM, or UICC , card. The USB Forum s Inter Chip USB Supplement was released in March 2006. ETSI TS 102 600, which is ETSI s USB implementation requirements specification, was first released in December 2007. IC USB is sometimes also referred to as USB IC or Inter chip USB.

Unreferenced date November 2006 orphan date November 2009 Industrial USB is the name given to the use of the USB Communications protocol protocol in an Industry industrial environment, for data acquisition , automation , and production machine control. Until recently, USB has been thought of strictly as a consumer communication bus, commonly used for Personal Computer PC peripherals. However, its popularity has caused increasing interest for USB in the Industry industrial space. The introduction of USB 2.0 , with a transfer rate of 480 Mbit s , provides a solution for implementing a portable high speed diagnostic system. Some of the advantages are High speed transfer rates with USB 2.0 at 480 Mbit s Easy setup due to Plug and Play Portability The difficulties of Industrial USB include Connector strain relief Maximum cable length of 5m with commercially available USB hubs and extenders, it is possible to extend USB up to 30 m or 500 m, respectively DEFAULTSORT Industrial Usb Category Industrial computing USB Category Universal Serial Bus ... more details

Unreferenced date November 2006 USB toys are toy s or gadget s which draw their electrical power from the USB or Universal serial bus on a computer. They are also known as office toy s or cubicle toys . Types There are, broadly, 2 categories for USB toys, useful toys and fun toys. Useful toys are gadgets which aim to fulfill a useful purpose but are of limited practicality due to the restrictions on the power supply through the USB port . Examples of these would be paper shredder s and reading lamps. The fun toys have no practical use other than pure fun. Examples include USB missile launcher, USB boxer and USB whack it. These are especially popular in office environments as they provide an interesting distraction and can often relieve stress in a similar way to the classic stress ball . Power supply The USB specification provides a 5V volt s supply on a single wire from which connected USB devices may draw power. The specification provides for no more than 5.25V and no less than 4.35V between the ve and ve bus power lines. The USB connector was originally designed as a replacement for the serial port serial and parallel port parallel Computer port hardware ports on computers. It was hoped that eventually a number of devices would be able to Daisy chain Electrical and electronic engineering daisy chain together using the USB ports. The use of a USB port to power toys was probably not what they were intended for. DEFAULTSORT Usb Toys Category Electronic toys Category Executive toys Toy stub ... more details

A USB microscope is a low powered digital microscope which connects to a computer, normally via a USB port. They are widely available at low cost commercially. In essence USB microscopes are a webcam with a high powered macro lens and generally do not use transillumination but rely on incident light instead. As the camera attaches directly to the USB port of a computer eyepieces are not required and the images are shown directly on the monitor. They offer modest magnifications up to about 200 without the need to use eyepieces at very low cost, and illumination is in built. Usage Images can be recorded and stored similar to a webcam on the computer. The camera is usually fitted with a light source, although extra sources such as a Optical fiber fiber optic light can be used to highlight features of interest in the object. They generally offer a large depth of field at the cost of a smaller numerical aperture and so amount of light collected. USB microscopes are most useful when examining flat objects such as coin s, printed circuit board s, or documents such as banknote s. Their use is generally similar to that of stereo microscope s. USB microscopes offer the great advantage of being much less bulky than a conventional stereo microscope so can be used in the field, attached to a laptop computer . Effective magnification The precise magnification is determined by the working distance between the camera and the object, and good supports are needed to control the image. Although convenient, the magnifying abilities of these instruments are often overstated typically offering 200 magnification, this claim is based usually on 25x to 30x actual magnification which is then further magnified by the expansion of the image by display on screen.

Orphan date August 2010 The USB Gecko is a Wii Gamecube development and hacking tool which connects to the USB port of the computer, and to the GameCube memory slot of the Wii. It can be used to upload homebrew to the wii, or act as a remote terminal under Wii Linux and as a Debugging remote debugging tool. The manufacturer has stopped producing these. Hardware The USB Gecko is a two step converter to convert EXI serial usb. It is a fancy serial port. All the fun is provided by software. The EXI interrupt cannot be triggered from the PC because the pin on the Wii side is left unconnected. In theory one could open up the USB Gecko and run a trace from that pin to one of the many unused pins on the CPLD, reprogram the CPLD, and be able to trigger the EXI interrupt from the PC side. This can be seen in the image at right. The pins on the bottom connector are numbered from left to right 12 down to 1, even numbers being on the bottom row, odd numbers being on the top row. Pin 3 is the EXI interrupt pin, which is unconnected for some unknown reason. The pins on the front side are what connect to the Wii EXI port. The pins on the back side connect to the Altera CPLD s JTAG pins for programming. The pins are, in order from left to right TDO, 3.3V, TMS, TDI, TCK, GND. The Gecko has 3 chips The USB interface is provided by the FT245RL which converts USB to two 8 bit bidirectional FIFOs. One sends data to the Wii 128 byte capacity , the other receives data from the Wii 256 byte capacity . The FIFOs are connected to an ALTERA CPLD Complex Programmable Logic Device EPM570T100C5N which converts the parallel data to the serial datastream needed for the Wii s EXI port. There is a 512K byte flashrom, the SST39VF040 which is accessible only on the Wii side through the Altera CPLD. This is not strictly necessary for the USB Gecko s main functionality.
