DualRole USB 3.0 to 3 Port USB Hub with Gigabit Ethernet Port
This product is a power-leeching liar: hub reports as self-powered,
- yet both hub and NIC are powered by host VBUS.
- When auxiliary power supply is used, then downstream ports are
- switched to sourcing from DC inlet jack J1.
Hardware has capability to detect power supply presence:
- J1 has a switch pin, leading to U3 (VLI hub controller pin 47)
- and to Q1 (pin 1. Q1 might be a transistor / logic gate.
- pin 3 leads to host VBUS (5V), pin 2 leads to ground plane).
- When DC barrel plug present, J1 switch is OPEN, pin voltage rises to 4.4V from Q1.
- When NO plug present, J1 switch is CLOSED to ground/0V.
U8 might act as power switch, connect downstream receptacle
- power pins to one of: upstream USB VBUS, or J1.
Board label
Board label silkscreen mark: "IA-HEB2-H100", "2012-11-19" (likely design date)
- "1428" in seven segment style (likely circuitboard manufacture date 2014 week 28)
- MAC address of specimen is 00:24:9b:11:24:e3,
- which resembles USB serial number 0000249B1124E3.
