The USB 3.0 Market Will Start In The Next Year

Published:2011/4/29 3:04:00 Author:Li xiao na From:SeekIC

The transmission speed of USB 3.0 has reached 5Gbp/s, and the specification of PCI Express 3.0 has been released in November of last year. The main chip suppliers are able to improve the transmission speed to 8GB/s. In the beginning of new technologies’ promotion, the verification, validation and certification become the problems that concerned by many engineers. In order to provide some support to the Chinese engineers, a technical session has been held in Shenzhen China.

The engineers who are engaged in the high-speed serial data design will face the pressure of new technologies. The demand for USB 3.0 and PCI Express 3.0 will increase in the future quarters, which will also bring many opportunities. When it comes to the current market status of USB 3.0, there is no official product in the market, because the standard of this technique has set for a short period of time. About ninety-five percent of its applications are in the consumer electronic products field, such as data storage device and camera. For the challenges which are encountered by the engineers, most of the problems lie in the receiver. High speed is not embodied in the data transmitting terminal, but also should be valued by the receiver. Only in this way can the experience of customers be improved.

In the beginning, when the speed of receiving terminal reached 5G, the USB 3.0 Chip may have problems. In the later period of market, the problems of chip suppliers have been solved, and many manufacturers are entering this industry, problems of the software will be more, such as the driving process’s problem, the problem of driving interoperability. These problems make the performance of USB 3.0 unstable. Moreover, the transmission speed is hard to be improved. Compared with the IEEE 1394, the transmission speed of USB 3.0 can reach 5Gbps. On one hand, it can be compatible with the USB interface; on the other hand, the cost will be lower.

Experts believe that the emergence of USB 3.0 will start more Host ports. The USB 3.0 will be promising in the following years, because Intel and AMD will actively drive the panel and PC manufacturers to use the new technique; the quantity of Host port will increase, and the customers can be driven. The related integrated circuit is GS4882.
