What is better about USB3.0 than USB2.0

There are many types of USB connectors, whether USB 3.0 or USB 2.0, there are many orders, but overall USB 3.0 connectors are better. The USB 3.0 connector was released in 2018. It is more than 8 years away from the USB 2.0 product. Do you know what advantages the USB 3.0 connector has over the USB 2.0 connector? The Konnra connector engineer will come to you for details. Introduce how the connector USB 3.0 is better than USB 2.0.

USB type-A 3.0

To compare where the USB 3.0 connector is better than the USB 2.0 connector, there are five aspects that we can’t get around: transmission rate, physical bus, power consumption, bandwidth, and bus utilization. The specific contents are as follows :

1. Transmission rate

The USB 2.0 connector provides a transmission rate of 480 Mbps, while the USB 3.0 connector provides a transmission rate of 4.8 Gbps. The transmission speed of the USB 3.0 connector is 10 times higher than that of the USB 2.0 connector.



2. Physical bus
USB 3.0 connectors have doubled the number of wires compared to USB 2.0 connectors, from 4 to 8 times. Because extra wires require more cable and connector space, new connectors such as USB3.0 connectors are designed.
3. Power consumption
The USB 2.0 connector provides up to 500 mA, and the USB 3.0 connector provides up to 900 mA. Using a USB 3.0 connector can provide more power for the device when needed, and save power when the device is connected but idle.
4. Bandwidth
The USB 3.0 connector uses two unidirectional data paths, one for receiving data and the other for transmission, while the USB 2.0 connector can only handle one data direction at any time, without

It is a one-way communication.

5. Bus utilization

The USB 3.0 connector has a new function (using the data packets NRDY and ERDY) than the USB 2.0 connector. Its main function is to let the device asynchronously notify the host that it is ready.

In summary: USB 3.0 connectors provide better speed and more efficient power management than USB 2.0 connectors. Although the USB 3.0 connector is backward compatible with USB 2.0 standard devices, when these devices interoperate, the data transfer speed is limited to USB 2.0 level.

What is the coaxial connector?

图片
Coaxial connectors are used to transmit RF signals. They have a wide transmission frequency of up to 18 GHz or higher and are mainly used for radar, communication, data transmission and aerospace equipment. The basic structure of the coaxial connector includes: a center conductor (a positive or negative center contact); a dielectric material outside the inner conductor, or an insulator, and the outermost is an outer contact, which serves as a shield outside the coaxial cable. The same function of the layer, that is, the signal transmission, the grounding element as a shield or circuit. The coaxial connectors are mainly divided into: SMA, SMB, BNC, TNC, SMC, N-type, BMA, and the like. Male: Male (plug), thread inside, inside is the needle. Such as TNC (M). Female: Female (socket), threaded outside, inside is a hole. Such as SMA (F). RP: Reverse Polarity means that the head and the inside of the needle are opposite. Bulkhead: It is the joint of the lockable screw on the board and

Talking about the function, classification and working principle of OTG data line

图片
  What is the OTG line? OTG is mainly applied to the connection between various devices or mobile devices for data exchange. The development of USB technology enables computers and peripheral mobile devices to transmit various data through simple USB connections. This will lead to a situation, once the mobile phone or tablet does not have a computer, we cannot manage the data of mobile devices such as mobile phones, which brings inconvenience to users. As mobile devices such as mobile phones become more and more like computers, can we imagine that we can use mobile phones as computers? Can a U disk, USB network card, etc. be connected to the phone? The answer is yes, the OTG function is to realize that the mobile phone can be connected with USB devices such as U disk, but the mobile phone has a tiny   USB   interface, which cannot meet the needs of USB ports such as U disk. So far, the OTG data cable came into being. The role of OTG is to realize data transfer between mobile devices wi

Calculation method of wire diameter of automobile wiring harness

图片
  When using the CATIA module for wire harness data production, the wire harness segment diameter is written into the software as an important parameter. All subsequent clearance checks and motion analysis are based on this value. Therefore, if there is a big difference from the actual situation, it will inevitably lead to the original requirement of meeting the safety gap, and it will be found to have interfered when the vehicle is actually installed, or even cannot be assembled. Konnra wiring harness  engineers provide you with a theoretical calculation method (wire harness standard algorithm) for estimating the outer diameter of automotive wiring harnesses. A wire harness segment is a collection that binds all wires together with tape or other wrapping. Taking into account that the tape is only wound on the wire harness, and the wrapping of casings such as corrugated pipes also needs to determine the outer diameter of the wire harness before selection. Therefore, when calculating, w
