Usb root hub 2.0 driver1/4/2023 which of course was a scam, since the MS2109 is 2.0 only (literally the only difference in these cards was the connector being blue, they didn't even have 3.0 pins). At some point most of the sellers started offering a more expensive "USB 3.0" variant reportedly capable of capturing 1080p at 60fps. There was also another huge problem with those dongles, but it was not MacroSilicon's fault. 1080p mode was still useful, however, as it made MJPEG quantization artifacts far less prominent. The original MS2109 used in all those AliExpress capture dongles was designed for 720p capture it could do 1080p at 30fps, but it would downscale the input to 720p and rescale it up in the process. There actually were a few legitimate issues with the previous generation of USB-2.0-only capture chips from MacroSilicon. Most recently (a year or so ago) breadboarded a USB serial Ethernet bridge for my Prusa Mini. (Even at university ended up choosing more CS-y/information-theoretic-y courses than electronics tbh.) Hobby electronics (off & on I suppose) since as long ago as I can remember, but haven't designed a PCB since high school. My background: EE but professionally only CS. Is there a good book for taking (digital) electronics beyond basics (i.e./and that isn't through a lens of Arduino or ESP or whatever) as a hobby? Protocols & design/layout for higher speeds is I suppose where I'm most lacking. I thought that was silly, and ought to be relatively easy to make. Even the USB3 ones will do a 2.5" disk, but all of them, even if USBC, require a separate power cable for hungrier disks. I couldn't find a USB-C SATA adaptor that used PD to power the disk. I enjoy Phil's Lab on YouTube which seems a pretty good resource, but I still think it would be naïve of me to jump in and expect to be able to design something that works.Į.g. Does anyone have any advice (other than 'just do it, try it, learn as you go, pick a datasheet') for getting into higher-speed designs, in order to play with USBC/HDMI/Ethernet/SATA/etc.?
