I want to conduct pressure decay testing that will conduct a decay test lasting 10 mins and once the test has concluded transmit test result electronically to a saved storage location. Any advice?

I have a computer with two USB ports. I plug a remote keyboard and mouse into one of the USB ports. Yesterday the connection failed. There was a big delay for characters appearing on the screen and many were missing. I plugged into the other USB port and everything was fine. I however need...

Hi, I Looking for a wireless wifi-7 usb adapter for an AMD machine which supports upto 10Gbps transmission speeds? Amazon doesn't seem to deliver to my country, so perhaps other websites. In my search in google i didn't find any USB wireless adapter with this speed. Thanks in advance!

Raspberry Pi / Linux... My USB mic shows up in the PulseAudio volume control, and also works OK with Audacity and arecord. However, it doesn't show up in Wolfram Mathematica -- $AudioInputDevices returns a null list. Anything I can do to get the mic working in Mathematica?

M y FM car radio is hopeless when my iphone is charging. The charger is cheap and cheerful and I'm sure I could do better. A low efficiency non switch mode supply would do the job. Any ideas about a make? I don't want to go down the road of chokes and tinfoil cos the car interior would look too...

A couple of years ago, I connected a USB printer to the USB socket on my broadband router. After a lot of trial and error (of which I remember no details) I was able to print from my windows laptop. Here are the port settings that currently work from the laptop: 1) Based on the above...

I have started to use WSL2 for a couple of weeks, and I quite enjoy it. I code as a hobby and sometimes for my work-related issues (physics-related stuff), but I am not a software developer or engineer. Currently, I am using Windows10. However, I am thinking of using Ubuntu from now on and...

I remember having a device in a previous job that you could plug into your TCP/IP network, and would allow you to communicate with several connected serial ports as if they were TCP/IP ports with their own addresses. (I know you could do this with a computer, but there was also a purpose-made...

I learned that USB chargers had built-in processors when I was browsing the details of a USB charger. After doing some searches on Google, I discovered that the computing performance of a chip in a modern charger is probably better than that of OBCs aboard the Apollo 11. I wonder what the...

Problem: Tablet is not detectable by computers. Yet... it is noted as "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)" in the device manager under Universal Serial Bus controllers. I have already done the basic 30 articles reading and tried the standard suggestions including: Try a...

Hi, I have an iPad Pro (1st generation) with what appears to be a USB type-C port. Period. No other ports, which I’ve been trying to get used for for more than a year now, but that’s not my current issue. Here’s what is the issue: I figure it out based on Identify USB Types by Its Appearances...

Looking for input on whether I've bought a lemon or if I just need some finesse. For a lark, I bought this 1.25" eyepiece compatible webcam for my scope. I had low expectations but knew I could only find out by trying it. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08DP1YZP8/?tag=pfamazon01-20 First...

USB 3 was heralded as the next best thing to sliced bread and, imo, has been marketed in a not - too - honest way. It's not always as useful as the bare numbers suggest. I know the same could be said about 1GB Ethernet but Ethernet can handle all sorts of rag tag and bobtail traffic streams and...

Frequent visitors of this forum will remember my previous thread where I mentioned an issue with the USB LAN adapter in our desktop - it used to disconnect automatically from the net. We could narrow down to the fact that the problem occurred only when we were downloading large files (>= 800...

Some of the older forum regulars can remember my strange questions asked over two years ago about ways of stopping NTPD, freshmen may remember my questions about ways of expressing some things in English. As strange as it may sound all these questions were related to the same project. I got to...

Recently I installed a https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NVN1WQK/?tag=pfamazon01-20 on our PC running Windows 7 Professional 32-bit. The driver software that I installed is RD9700 USB to ethernet adapter driver. The problem: Every time the computer boots, the internet is accessible. I wait...

Hi PF! I am currently on an Intel-based mac. I have an AMD desktop currently running linux on one SSD, but this desktop also has an HDD, which I'd like to boot with Windows 10 Education (since it's free for my school). How can I prepare a USB bootable drive so that I can use the HDD for...

I guess USB powerbank have switching power supply for the 5V output? I need a pure 5V power bank that doesn't use switching power supply but just pure output like the 3.7v lithium battery in cell phone. And why doesn't lithium battery doesn't produce 5 volt dc output?

Does adapters (exp: SATA to USB or VGA to hdmi) work with special softwares for conversion or are they only electronic circuits which gets and directs input signals to correct output pins?

Hi I have not been keeping up with the latest USB standard, is the latest one USBIII? What is the speed of this? Also, I want to run a USB cable at least 4m long, do they have USB cable that long and still work for the fastest USB standard? I know in the past, even for USBII, there is a...

I have a couple quick questions on keyboards with a USB 3.0 cable. When we first turn on our computers, is it the 5V pin that turns on the keyboard? When we press a key such as 'esc' or 'enter', through what pin(s) do these signals get sent to the computer? Thanks!

Hi, I designed a small wireless sensor that can run from 5V USB power. I use a USB hub to power my device via a USB cable. There is so much noise on the 5V USB line that my device readings turn inaccurate. Using the oscilloscope I can see noise frequencies of 10MHz and down to 100kHz, assuming...

Has anyone here managed to connect to two USB microphones to a Raspberry-PI and been able to process the two audio streams via C or Python? I've been searching online for solutions and of course found others in the same boat but no one apparently can find the paddle. Its for a summer project...

In flash memories or external HDDs there is a distinction as usb 2 or usb 3. USB 3.0 is faster than USB 2.0 in such devices. But what about the situation for SDD drives? Does this distinction apply to them, too? Thank you.

What are the differences between USB Boot and CD/DVD Boot. I am confused when booting from USB. My BİOS setting is set up for Legacy Mode and USB Boot but now something is different from CD/DVD boot. In DVD boot we restart PC it gives a notification at the start as push a key. Without logging in...

I want to take two female USB from a computer one will be on top of the other just as they are installed in a computer I want to make a generic type a female to female connector would one connect pin 1 to pin 1 and so on or do the cross over?

Hello everyone, Recently, I bought a R/C Helicopter which has a 7.4V 850mAh Lipo battery. I enjoy flying it in the field but I have a problem charging its batteries after each flight. I have no access to any car battery or 220V wall socket. I bought a Lipo charger for it which needs at least...

There has been some discussion on another thread about possible problems with mains spikes and lighting LEDs. I have decided that I could use an entry level scope to capture and measure any that are around on my supply. My regular analogue scope is hopeless for this purpose. I am sure that there...

I have an external cd drive for my laptop. When I restart my computer I want it to boot from this external drive and my KNOPPIX disc. I'm trying to get my computer to default to the USB upon restarting. But I'm not sure how to do it. When the computer restarts I press F2 for setup (I have...

Before I start, a quote: "There are two kinds of cryptography in this world: cryptography that will stop your kid sister from reading your files, and cryptography that will stop major world governments from reading your files." Today you can buy, for $50-100, a USB stick with hardware...

I am trying to use C++ (eclipse in Ubuntu OS) to read USB connection. Usually, on the terminal window, I can use command "lsusb" to see the list. Now, I want to do the same way with C++. can anyone help? Thank you very much.

The problem is that when i power on the computer i get a windows with two options, Linpus Linux Create a bootable USB drive When i plug the...

Hi everyone, I've been trying to design a 12:1 2.0 USB multiplexer for a while, with very little success. I've bought a couple of MAX4999 8:1 multiplexers, trying to use two of them in parallel such as shown in the datasheet. I've put them on a breakout board from Adafruit, and started testing...

Hi. I'm still confused about basic electricity. I have a USB power bank with two 1 A and one 2.1 A outputs. They all are specified with 5 V (all numbers from the manual, not measured myself). I just can't bring this into agreement with Ohm's law U=RI. Shouldn't the resistance R only depend on...

Does such a thing exist. I have a device that only has a slot to write data to a micro sd card. I have an external USB hard drive. Is it possible to hook up my external hard drive to the micro sd slot in my device? Like a male USB cable into the external hard drive that has a male micro sd...

Setup: I have a portable solar panel (for camping, etc) that outputs to two USB ports (2 amp). I want to use this to power a small Li-ion charger. I know that there are products/adapters I can buy to achieve this but I am fascinated by the science of it and want to know *how* all this works...

Hello everyone, I am designing the power system of a new circuit. It will receive an analog video signal and then be able to split that video signal to multiple outputs. I would like to have multiple ways to power the circuit depending on the application. One way to power the device will be by...

I just did a new computer build with a cheap (I mean inexpensive) motherboard, the ASUS M5A97: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131872&cm_re=m5a97-_-13-131-872-_-Product I noticed that it had 6 USB 2.0 ports and 2 USB 3.0 ports. So (naively) I thought, cool, I'll just...

Hey, Is it possible to password protect a USB drive and make it possible to acess these protected files on both linux and windows simultaneously?

I'd like to take several of these (or similar) usb device charging batteries (http://www.ianker.com/product/A1271011 ) and connect them into an array to create a minimum of 36V and channel that to power a speed controller for an electric vehicle. Is this possible? Would I be able to prototype...

What am I missing here? I know USBs don't kill you so I know I've got something wrong. Google tells me that around 0.1A has a really good chance of killing you; and everything I read says it's the amps that kill you not the volts. So I know van der grafs and static shocks won't kill you. My...

Firstly let me apologize if this is the wrong subdirectory. I didn't find one specific to just electronics and suppose the computing section may be too limited to apply or be seen by many. If it needs to be moved, no problem. For quite some time I have been aware that I have spent rather a...

I put my lenovo laptop into yoga mode. Can't access the keys very easily, especially shortcuts that require two buttons to be pressed at the same time. I've programmed my wacom pen to do a few things but that is only 3 buttons. Is there a USB bracelet that will let you program certain...

I stumbled across this. http://www.innovatoys.com/tech-gadgets/usb-eyepiece-for-microscopes/5937 I've got a 6" reflector on an equatorial mount. At some angles, an hour of viewing could put me in a chiropractor's office. It would be cool to observe the sky from a sitting position that didn't...

Hello everyone, So first I'll give an overview of the project that I am working on. We have a camera system that we wish to control on a Windows 8 tablet. The program on the tablet will need to display the video signal and also be able to issue commands to the camera (currently, just change the...
