SCOTTSDALE, USA: With over 3 billion devices shipped in 2008 alone, USB is the most successful interface ever, according to In-Stat.
Fueled by new “SuperSpeed” technology, also known as USB 3.0, and continued adoption across computing, communication and consumer devices, over 4 billion USB-enabled devices will ship in 2013 representing a 6.6 percent CAGR compared to 2008.
Among the key growth segments for USB-enabled devices are:
* Digital TVs with USB will grow to 140 million units shipped in 2013.
* USB-enabled LCD PC monitors will grow to about 70 million units, propelled by a CAGR of over 150 percent.
* Blue-ray DVD players with USB will see a CAGR of over 90 percent.
These growth segments will complement the enormous volume of markets such as handsets, where internal USB capability can be found in more than 1 billion units shipped annually, and where USB ports are becoming much more common.
“USB dominates its traditional applications while simultaneously spreading into new applications,” says Brian O’Rourke, In-Stat analyst. “SuperSpeed USB silicon vendors hope to open up the number of applications, hence increasing the potential for device interaction and enlarging the USB ecosystem.”

USB market will get SuperSpeed boost after slower 2009
SCOTTSDALE, USA: Although the global recession will prompt a slight decline in USB-enabled device shipments this year, next-generation “SuperSpeed” technology will fuel the market over the next several years, reports In-Stat.
SuperSpeed, USB’s new incarnation, will deliver 5Gbps, a ten-fold improvement over high-speed USB. With the late 2008 introduction of SuperSpeed, the question is not whether it will be successful, but how successful it will be.
“All PCs, and most PC peripherals have transitioned from full-speed to high-speed. Most of these devices will eventually transition to SuperSpeed, the only issue is the speed of the transition,” says Brian O’Rourke, In-Stat analyst. “For PC peripheral devices, the key will be how quickly SuperSpeed is integrated into the application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) and microcontrollers that are the brains of these devices.”
Recent research by In-Stat found the following:
* With over three billion devices shipped in 2008 alone, USB is the most successful interface ever. It has been broadly adopted across PCs, PC peripherals, consumer electronics (CE), communications and automotive devices.
* Consumer electronics devices with USB will rise at a 6.6 percent CAGR between 2008 and 2013.
* Although mini-USB ports have not made significant progress as a connector on mobile phones, micro-USB ports are expected to become the dominant standard for connectors in mobile phones by 2013.
* USB in computer mice will remain the single highest volume PC peripheral category.
* SuperSpeed USB will represent over 25 percent of the USB market by 2013.
