We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "USB products",
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 Wireless USB controller meets UWB specs from
LucidPort Technology, which we summarised at the time by saying "Harnessing WiMedia UWB technology, the L800 interoperates with other wireless USB products at transfer speeds reaching up to 480Mbit/s".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release USB controller drives H.264 reference designs from
Cypress Semiconductor: "The new Crusher and Crusher-Capture reference designs accelerate the H.264 video encoding process up to 5x faster than real time".
In December 2007, we covered the news from Renesas Technology Europe
concerning its H8SX/1638 and H8SX/1648
- take a look at MCUs offer flexible approach enhancement
which says: "Enhanced family of microcontrollers offers a wide range of products ideal for varied systems in PCs and office automation, digital consumer and industrial products".
Take a look also at the news release from Staccato Communications, CMOS product receives wireless certification,
as well as Chip receives new certification from LucidPort Technology,
and MCUs provide data acquisition system on a chip from Renesas Technology Europe.
