What even is this??

This is a USB-C -> 3x USB-A hub!

This uses:

  • TUSB4041l as the main Hub
  • 3x LP5912 as an LDO
  • A male USB-C plug (JAE DX07P024AJ1) no need to worry about cables

Why does this exist??

This project was funded by Hack Club Outpost!

As a MacBook user, I deseperately need a dongle. I decided to design my own Hack Club themed dongle!

Questions

How big is the USB OverDrive PCB?

It measures 35.2 × 50 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the USB OverDrive use?

91 parts, built around the TUSB4041IPAP and TPS2561DRC. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the USB OverDrive KiCad files?

From the hanaeatsplanes/USB-OverDrive repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is USB OverDrive.kicad_pcb and its schematic USB OverDrive.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the USB OverDrive design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask hanaeatsplanes before reusing the design.
