Hi all,
I have been searching for a while now for a datasheet for a small 16 pin chip on my usb hub
the text on the chip is not realy readable but from a huge loop it is something like "PV130501-1" and "A111H17" but those show no results anywhere. so I hope someone will read this and will corect me on those numbers and know what datasheet to look for.
this is the best picture I have of it

Excuse the thread bump, but it may be useful for others as this chip varient seems to be appearing more often.

The 'A111H17' is a clone/remarking of the 'HS8839', but with slight differences (form factor):

Not to be confused with the HS8836(A), which has a different pinout. (Though some schematics do label HS8836 with the '39 pinout - just beware!)

It's a 3.3v IC via pin 14, but with a weird twist - a built in 3.3v LDO regulator (on package, but only common with GND).
If you only have 5v, connect pin 14 (IC 3.3v in) to pin 12 (LDO 3.3v out), then 5v to pin 13 (LDO 5v in).

The only thing it doesn't enumerate is my phone.
