USB Signaling

• USB uses Non-Return to Zero, Inverted signaling

– Separate clock signal not required to be delivered with data
– ‘1’ on the data line indicates no change in level of NRZI signal
– ‘0’ on the data line indicates transition in level of NRZI signal
– Long string of 1s will eventually cause receiver to lose
