USB IEEE Milestone Dedication
Join us for the dedication and unveiling of the IEEE Milestone for the Universal Serial BUS (USB), 1996 on July 30th, from 1:30-3:30pm at the Intel Jones Farm Campus in Hillsboro Oregon.
An industry consortium published the first Universal Serial Bus (USB) specification in January 1996. Initially intended to simplify attaching electronic devices to a PC, USB became a very successful low-cost, high-speed interface for home and business use. Its ability to support new device classes and functionalities, including data storage, power delivery, and battery charging, has made USB's cabling, connectors, and logo recognizable worldwide.
Please feel free to forward this event to individuals who were involved in the development of USB or might wish to attend.
