Hey all!
I want to control 2 instruments both of which use RS232 interface. But in the computer, there are no free RS232 ports. But, there are few free USB ports. I wanted to know, is it preferable to get a USB to RS 232 converter or a PCIe card with RS232 ports?
If anyone can share any...
I’m currently designing a PCB with usb-c, and I’d really appreciate some help reviewing my schematic and pcb layout for my usbc layout and especially the esd protection
Hi everyone,
I’m designing a PCB that uses USB-C to program an ESP32-S2 Mini 2. It’s my first time routing USB, and I’ve run into a layout issue I’m not sure how to handle correctly.
Setup
USB-C receptacle (USB 2.0 only: D+, D−, CC1/CC2).
ESD protection: USBLC6-2SC6 (2-channel low-cap device...
I am using PIC24FJ256GB106 controller for USB CDC communication, I have downloaded the MLA from microchip and by modifying the cdc_basic_demo of PIC24FJ256GB110 to PIC24FJ256GB106 (changed the device form PIC24FJ256GB110 to PIC24FJ256GB106 in project configuration).
In device manager in USB...
I am currently working with the FT260 chip on the UMFT260EV1A module. It is I2C to USB bridge that uses HID protocol to communicate with the host. I have established connection with the chip and am also able to communicate with an I2C device through the FT260.
What I am struggling with is the...
Hi guys,
I have a simple problem, I need to mount 2 storage media i.e., USB drive and SD Card that are connected to my system and copy a csv file from SD card to USB in the most fastest way possible (DMA may be?) but my current method is kinda very slow.
I am mounting SD Card, reading a 256kb...
Hi Guys,
I'd like to start by telling I have gone through a lot of similar threads from allabout circuits but I have concluded my problem is little different from all of those. I have a battery charger circuit that will be powered by USB, which will charge a 3.7V Li-Po battery.
My Requirement...
I am trying to replace a usb C connector that snapped on a laptop power supply, there is a blue wire that needs to be connected to A5/CC1 (and also to B5/CC2 ?) would this type of connector work :
I need to know how the LED light of a USB card reader that indicates the data transfer works?
Is it possible to create such a light using transistors and putting that circuit parallelly with a data cable connected to a USB storage drive?
In this diagram how that LED connected with the GPIO0...
Hello guys, i'm new on this forum
i just bought a camera without the charging cable
the model : Nikon Coolpix S2600
i found a AV cable with the same connector, what i want to do is pretty simple in fact, but without any documentation it's became really hard
do you know how can i solder a +5V and...
Hi all,
I am trying to add a USB-C socket on my PCB that I would like to use for data transfer only. I currently have a simple UART molex connection, but I would like to upgrade it to USB-C in my next iteration of my PCB :)
I am using the FT230X to convert it to UART as I want to use DMA...
Hello everyone,
I'm trying to use the TQMa6x using the USB port but when I connect my card nothing happens, black screen and I can't see what the problem is.
Thank you in advance for your answers.
Hey all, I was wondering if someone could point me to a component that fits this description. Id like a USB that plugs directly into a computer with voltage terminals and converts it into a digital representation that has existing support in a programming language to easily read in the data. The...
Hello everyone,
Id like to request some help on how to implement USB onto a project. I am currently working on a project that sends analog signals to a computer using a headphone jack and plots it into a graph. Id like to do the same but using a USB port instead as it is standard and easier to...
Hi,
I'm pretty new to all of this, so please let me know if something doesn't make sense.
I am building display units with LEDs in them, powered by a 5v USB C to make it easy to disconnect and cable manage. I would like to put a USB C port on the left side of the unit, as well as another USB C...
Hey all,
I'm currently building an escape room & have decent good electronics knowledge, however, I'm on a project that has stumped me:
We have an arcade machine built with a custom mini game running on a pc, the controller joystick and buttons operate via a usb decoder & are fully...
Hello everyone, i am new here and i don't have any education about electronics. I have just learnt very basic things from internet and by breaking, modifying and damaging electronics..!! I have done assembling computers and repairing motorcycles.. i love fiddling with electronics..

Hi everyone, I'm building an USB charger with a linear PSU just for hobby and I want to install an USB 3.1 port so it can supply 900 mA max.
If I only connect up the USB 3.1 port VBUS and GND pins, will the device recognize it as USB 2.0?
I'd like to know what I should do with the other five...
Hello true tech enthusiasts,
I'm trying to do this:
Long story short my USB drive stopped working after it would randomly not be detected at times on my PC.
Found out it was bent and a pin in the middle was slanted. Now it wouldn't detect at all. So I'm trying to desolder the metal part...
