Apart from FE1.1s features, this USB hub has the following additional features:
- Switches to on/off and reset individual USB ports.
- Capability to provide a maximum of 3A of current from each USB port.
- Power using 9V to 15V DC voltage source.
This USB hub uses PIC16F630 MCU and four units of LM2596-5.0 switching regulators to achieve the above-listed features.
