INCORRECTHow does USB cable transmit 480MHz data and clock ?? Hi-speed mode ?? The device should have uControler faster than 480MHz. I didnt see any device with uC faster then 10..30 MHz. This is maximally pigheaded information. It isnt authors mistake... Its an mistake from marketting - pigheaded marketting bosses ]:

2008-08-07 18:54:36INCORRECTIn the logic of connection of a couple of connectors an elementary rule should be completed and it is that when you put to a cable a plug and a jack these and it introduces the plug in the jack all the threads of the cable they should form a closed loop if this doesn't happen, then there are problems. It is for it that I believe that the pinout of the connector "A" and of the mini-USB they are incorrect. In spanish (por si acaso.) En la logica de conexion de una pareja de conectores debe cumplirse una regla elemental y es que cuando usted pone a un cable un plug y un jack estos e introduce el plug en el jack todos los hilos del cable deben formar un lazo cerrado si esto no ocurre , entonces hay problemas. Es por ello que creo que el pinout del conector "A" y del mini-USB estan incorrectos. rev. 4APPROVED

2009-03-12 21:05:32CORRECTThe information seems correct... "How does USB cable transmit 480MHz data and clock" ?? :: This is achived with an interface such as ULPI, 8 data bits, and 4 control is typically. so theoretically 480/8= 70Mhz (Typical rin speed for a good ARM 7 core 2009) run speed to hit the full Bandwidth. Thats half the story... Peak is 480Mbps, that is typically not sustained for any amount of time, although you can get damn close on fast systems. At any rate it is hardly a: "mistake from marketting - pigheaded marketting bosses"rev. 6APPROVED
