USB connectors and specifications tutorial, including USB 1.1, USB 2.0, USB 3.2, USB4 Version 1.0, and USB4 Version 2.0. Video also covers USB DP (DisplayPort), USB PD (power delivery), as well as the USB Type-A, Type-B, Mini-B, Micro-B, USB-C and nine other connectors. :) Information for this video was primarily sourced from specifications included in the Document Library made available by the USB Implementers Forum at: Inevitably, as always, I’ve had to decide what to leave out, as well as what to include. Given the number of USB specifications and revisions that exist -- for example, there have now been 17 just for power delivery -- the only sure way to check anything for certain is to look at the instruction manual or online specification for your particular device. This said, right now, if you need the highest specification, go for a device with USB4 ports, and purchase USB power cables that support 100W -- or 240W if you can get hold of them. :) If you enjoy this video, you may like my episodes: Explaining SSDs: Form Factors, Interfaces & Technologies: Explaining PCIe Slots: Explaining File Systems (NTFS, exFAT, FAT32 & more): Explaining SD Cards (2020 Update): For additional ExplainingComputers videos and other content, you can become a channel member here: More videos on computing and related topics can be found at You may also like my ExplainingTheFuture channel at: Chapters: 00:00 Introduction 01:09 Connectors & Specifications 01:48 USB Chronology (inc USB 1.1 & USB 2.0) 04:32 USB OTG 05:25 USB 3.0 07:38 USB Confusion (USB 3.1 & 3.2) 10:00 USB DP (DisplayPort) 10:23 USB4 11:41 USB PD (power delivery) 13:37 Wrap #USB4 #USB-C #USB3.2 #ExplainingComputers
