5.2 Universal Serial Bus (USB)
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) provides a bi-directional, isochronous, hot-attachable
Plug and Play serial interface for adding external peripheral devices such as game
controllers, communication devices and input devices on a single bus. SOM-Express
modules provide several USB 2.0 ports.
USB stands for Universal Serial Bus, an industry-standard specification for attaching
peripherals to a computer. It delivers high performance, the ability to plug in and
unplug devices while the computer is running, great expandability, and a wide variety
of solutions.
