Intel has announced that from 2012 to support version 3.0 of the USB standard, with the transfer rates of up to 5 Gb / s works ten times faster than USB 2.0 (up to 480 Mbit / s). In parallel, the chip maker also wants the proliferation of competing interface driving Thunderbolt, which he had introduced in late February.
“Intel USB 3.0 support is planned for 2012 with his client platform. We will also provide support for Thunderbolt. We believe that both techniques complement each other,” said Kirk Skaugen, vice president, Intel Architecture Group, at the Intel Developer Forum Beijing. With the “planned for 2012 client platform,” he means the next generation processor, “Ivy Bridge” which will follow the current Sandy Bridge processors.
To date, Intel offers USB 3.0 only on some desktop motherboards. This use, however, not an Intel chip, but a controller from NEC.
In the future, Intel will deliver its own chipsets for Ivy Bridge with USB 3.0 support, which the new transmission standard will hold in any PC or laptop with an Intel CPU catchment. It was the same in 2002 with the introduction of USB 2.0, had created for its widespread use Intel chipsets with its basis.
USB 3.0 will also support AMD, which is likely an industry-wide introduction in the way of anything. As the USB Implementers Forum said yesterday, with the models A75 and A70M merger had first AMD chipsets with USB 3.0 support is available.
Skaugen encouraged at IDF manufacturers of peripherals such as printers, scanners and digital cameras to support both USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt. The latter provides data rates of up to 10 Gbit / s and also serves for connecting HD displays. As the first manufacturer to use the technology in Apple’s current MacBook Pro models.
