If a digital device is connected to a personal computer, the chances are it will plug into a USB port. But what is USB, and how does it work?

What Is USB?

USB stands for Universal Serial Bus. It is a system for attaching peripherals to personal computers using standard physical connections and communication systems. USB allows for “hotplugging” devices (that is adding and removing devices with the power without having to switch the power off) and will also supply power to low consumption devices, negating the need for another power supply.

History of USB

USB has been released in 3 versions so far. Version 1.0 (January 1996) was the original release, but this was superseded by version 1.1 (September 1998) which was the first version to achieve mass adoption. These versions had a maximum data rate of 12Mbps (megabits per second).
