12:08 AM rue_mohr: its not neccissarily the best th
12:08 AM rue_mohr: o
12:24 AM flav0r: arrrgh i finally understand this stupid chip !
12:25 AM rue_mohr: what is the chip?
12:27 AM flav0r: fe1.1s
12:27 AM rue_mohr: ?
12:27 AM flav0r: and gl850g
12:27 AM flav0r: usb hub controllers
12:28 AM rue_mohr: ah
12:28 AM flav0r: i was lookign at schematics that had 5v all over the place
12:28 AM rue_mohr: microcontroller?
12:28 AM flav0r: and also some 3v3 connections
12:28 AM flav0r: but i didnt get where the 3v3 was coming from
12:28 AM flav0r: turns out the chip itself does the regulating
12:28 AM flav0r: so 5v in .. 3v3 out
12:28 AM flav0r: then from the 3v3 out .. you pass it to 3v3 in
12:29 AM flav0r: in order for it to regulate that down to 1.8v
12:29 AM flav0r: weird that you have to pass it back into the same chip
12:31 AM rue_mohr: indeed
11:32 AM flav0r_ is now known as flav0r
11:40 AM Tom_itx is now known as Tom_L
