UNIVERSAL SERIAL BUS INTERFACE
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface provides asynchronous/isochronous data transfers of up
to 12 Mb/s with compatible peripherals such as keyboards, printers, or modems. This high-speed
interface supports hot-plugging of compatible devices, making possible system configuration
changes without powering down or even rebooting systems.
NOTE:
It is recommended to run the Windows 98 (or later) operating system when
using USB peripherals,
especially a USB keyboard and USB mouse
. Problems may be
encountered when using USB devices with a system running Windows 95, although
some peripherals (such as a modem and/or a camera) may operate satisfactorily.
As shown in Figure 5-7, the USB interface is provided by the 82801 ICH component and a USB
hub component. All models provide two front-panel accessible series-A USB ports. For more
information on the USB interface refer to the following web site:

USB I/F, Block Diagram
5.7.1 USB DATA FORMATS
The USB I/F uses non-return-to-zero inverted (NRZI) encoding for data transmissions, in which a
1 is represented by no change (between bit times) in signal level and a 0 is represented by a change
in signal level. Bit stuffing is employed prior to NRZ1 encoding so that in the event a string of 1’s
is transmitted (normally resulting in a steady signal level) a 0 is inserted after every six consecutive
1’s to ensure adequate signal transitions in the data stream.
