who invented the usb flash drive? how does a usb flash drive work?

The rise of usb developed by a corporate consortium of Intel, Compaq, Microsoft, Sony, December, IBM and Northern Telecom, Universal Serial Bus (USB)
Launched in January 1996.
USB 1 at that time.
0 standard is able to provide a transfer rate of 12 Mbit/s.
April, 2000, USB 2.
0 introduced, the transmission rate is 480 Mbit/s.
Recently, USB 3.
The standard of 0 reaches the transmission rate of 4. 8 Gbit/s.
These faster speeds allow devices such as printers, mice and keyboards to connect to computers easily and cheaply.
Although USB Technology was developed in 1996, IBM did not sell its first DiskOnKey until 2000, and Trek Technology sold its first ThumbDrive, the world was also introduced into the first USB flash drive.
It\'s no surprise that the introduction of flash drives has brought several important lawsuits, focusing primarily on the potential that USB flash drives represent, rather than what companies and individuals actually do to them.
Today\'s U disk uses USB 2.
0 technology enables portable storage due to its 40-
The speed is several times higher than the original USB 1. 0 standard.
Some have found ways to install the entire operating system on these portable storage devices, such as Linux and Windows.
Unlike internal and external hard drives, USB flash drives use SSDs
National Technology.
Solid state essentially means that data storage and retrieval on a USB flash drive is implemented without moving parts, similar to computer RAM.
However, unlike computer RAM, the memory on the USB flash drive is unstable;
Data is not lost when the device is powered off.
The USB flash drive consists of three main components.
The housing protects the internal components from accidental charges such as dust, debris and static electricity.
The memory chip is connected to the internal printed circuit board of the USB drive. These solid-
The state storage chip can be as small as a few megabytes, as large as 64gb or more.
It won\'t take long for us to see a USB flash drive of 128GB or even 256 GB.
However, there have been attempts to deceive consumers into believing that these devices are already there.
The third component is the USB connector itself.
The appearance of the USB connector is very flat, able to provide data transfer and power supply to the USB flash drive without external power supply.
Although all USB flash drives share the common features of these three components, they come in a variety of different shapes and sizes for different applications.
Some are made for solid use, while others are made entirely for portability.
All USB flash drives share these three components regardless of the external design.
Although USB was launched in 1996, it was not commercially available in flash drives until 2000. Using solid-
The flash drive does not have an internal moving part, but does not contain loss-prone memory.
USB flash drives have storage capacity of up to 64gb and above, with the advantages of portability and short to medium
Storage solution.
