USB

Universal Serial Bus is an interface bus to connect devices to a computer. USB facilitates bus power to power the device. It is a 'hot-swappable' bus, which means that you can connect and disconnect devices while the PC is running. The USB 2.0 standard supports three transfer rates:

  • 1.5 Mbit/s Low Speed
  • 12 Mbit/s High Speed
  • 480 Mbit/s Full Speed

All TiePie engineering USB instruments support 480 Mbit/s Full speed data transfer.
