Speed, Function, and Technology as Key Factors for USB Applications
USB is regarded as the world’s most popular serial interface, with over 1 billion devices shipping every year. This means there are a lot of players in the market, and many possible applications. From mice to mobile application processors, through set-top boxes and video cameras, it’s actually hard to imagine a device that is not USB-connected.

What’s the price of future-proofing the design, and is it always worth it? I came up with three simple questions that every designer should ask himself to make sure he designs his application not only for the market of today, but also for tomorrow—questions that a USB application designer needs to answer for himself before he starts looking for IP.
