  • I’m going to go with no, since that step is not transferring data to a human, it’s transferring it internally within the computer.
    UI can refer to either the medium, such as a visual display, speaker system, or keyboard, and it can also refer to a specific layout of information (like the Qwerty layout, or a webpage layout). I wouldn’t consider the USB protocol UI just because it can transmit HID Events, only the keyboard or mouse as a whole is UI.
    You could almost call HID events UI, but I’d still argue they’re more of a computer-device interface than a human-device interface









  • For really sensitive applications like voltage references, they actually build a little enclosure around the part with a built in heater to keep it at a constant calibrated temperature. The boards also often have cutouts to reduce thermal transfer and things like the board flexing causing stress to the part.

    The resistor itself won’t really drift at a constant temperature, especially in a sealed environment where condensation, corrosion, and dust aren’t a factor.
