USBPinouts

USB uses 4 wires for power (+5V and ground) and differential data signals (D+ and D-). Data is transmitted over a twisted pair using half-duplex signaling to reduce electromagnetic noise. USB supports four data rates up to SuperSpeed at 4800 Mbit/s. A device indicates its speed by pulling D+ or D- high. Pinouts are shown for standard USB and Micro-B connectors.

USB Connector Pinouts

1. USB is a serial bus. It uses 4 shielded wires: two for power (+5v & GND) and two for differential
data signals (labelled as D+ and D- in pinout).
2. In a USB data cable Data+ and Data- signals are transmitted on a twisted pair with no termination
needed. Half-duplex differential signaling is used to reduce the effects of electromagnetic noise
on longer lines. D+ and D- operate together; they are not separate simplex connections.

USB supports four data rates:

1. Low Speed (1.5 Mbit per second) that is mostly used for Human Input Devices (HID) such as
keyboards, mice, joysticks and often the buttons on higher speed devices such as printers or
scanners;
2. Full Speed (12 Mbit per second) which is widely supported by USB hubs.
3. Hi-Speed (480 Mbit per second) was added in USB 2.0 specification. Not all USB 2.0 devices are
Hi-Speed.
4. SuperSpeed (USB 3.0) rate of 4800 Mbit/s (~572 MB/s).

A USB device must indicate its speed by pulling either the D+ or D- line high to 3.3 volts. These pull up
resistors at the device end will also be used by the host or hub to detect the presence of a device
connected to its port. Without a pull up resistor, USB assumes there is nothing connected to the bus.

Pinout for the various connectors are shown below

Pin Name Cable color Description


1 VCC Red +5 VDC
2 D- White Data -
3 D+ Green Data +
4 GND Black Ground

USB Micro-B Connector

The Micro-B connector is becoming more and more popular on small devices. Here is the pinout shown
from the end of the plug
