some general USB information.
Universal Serial Bus (USB) port technology
has emerged in response to the proliferation of external peripheral devices
(scanners, digital cameras, removable drives, etc.), that are increasingly
being connected to the latest generation of PCs. USB behaves in a similar
fashion to conventional bus ports (i.e., serial, parallel, PS/2), but since it
does not require any IRQs, more devices can be attached to the system, and the
problem of IRQ conflict is eliminated.
The ADP3162 is a Universal Serial
Bus (USB) hub, functioning as a USB cable concentrator and a bridge between PC
USB Host Controller and USB devices. The ADP3162 is a full speed USB hub and it
provides one upstream port and seven downstream ports. It supports both full
speed (12 Mbps) and low speed (1.5 Mbps) devices, such as keyboard, mouse,
joystick and etc. The ADP3162 provides both Self-powered and Bus-powered modes.
It has per-port overcurrent detection LEDs, as well as the per-port power ready
LEDs.

USB
Notes:- USB peripherals can connect either to a computer's port or to
a hub.
- If the computer doesn't have enough ports for all the peripherals, a
hub is necessary.
- Maximum length on individual cables is 5 Meters.
- No
terminators are needed on this bus.
- The A (flat) type port would be
considered the "out" port on a computer or hub.
- The B (square) type port
would be considered an "in" port on hubs or peripherals.
- A typical USB "out"
(Type-A) port can provide up to 500mA.
- The speed is 12 Megabytes per second,
the maximum number of peripherals to a controller is 63 (hubs needed when the
computer runs out of ports).
