We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "USB interfaces",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Software tool puts USB interfaces on trial from
Direct Insight, which we summarised at the time by saying "USBTester enables USB developers to quickly validate their USB devices for USB functionality and compatibility".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release One chip has PCI Express expansion options covered from
MosChip Semiconductor Technology: "World's first PCIe to peripheral I/O controller to have more than 21 combinations of serial, parallel, USB and ISA interface options".
In January 2008, we covered the news from Maxim Integrated Products
concerning its MAX4987AE and MAX4987BE
- take a look at Controllers protect USB interfaces
which says: "Ideal for space-constrained applications, such as cellphones, smartphones, PDAs, MP3 players and portable video players that are attached to USB ports for connectivity or charging".
Take a look also at the news release from Renesas Technology Europe, MCU starter kit gains full USB stack,
as well as USB-to-LAN ICs are easy route to embedded Ethernet from Asix Electronics Corporation,
and Digital oscilloscope has 350MHz bandwidth from Yokogawa Europe - Test and Measurement.
