DisplayLink is all set to introduce a chip that allows videos to run in SuperSpeed USB 3.0 standard devices in the second half of 2010, reports PC World.
This chip would be used in consumer products by December 2010. Reportedly, the company plans to demo a USB 3.0 device integrated with the chip. The device will transmit video at up to 4.8 gigabits-per-second which is USB 3.0’s maximum rate.
This transmission of video is about 10 times faster than the current USB 2.0 standards. Presently, DisplayLink’s USB 2.0 chip is being used in the various devices such as laptop docking stations, and pocket-sized video adaptors.
Reportedly, DisplayLink’s USB 2.0 chips display games at 60 frames-per-second. They also show feature high-def video at 26 to 27 frames per second and run on Windows 7. This new offering from DisplayLink will be displayed at the CES 2010. However, users will have to wait until next Christmas to get their hands devices integrated with the technology.
