As the windows driver CD is labeled ''SV3420A'' and timestamps are rather old, I suspect that the drivers didn't change since SV3420A. Equally the Linux driver should work for all revisions. |

Remote control part is recognized as HID device by the kernel. |

as described in [https://www.dealextreme.com/forums/Default.dx/sku.8325~threadid.278942] with Ubuntu 9.04 (linux 2.6.18-24). Firmware on the original CD didn't seem to work, but the firmware [http://palosaari.fi/linux/v4l-dvb/firmware/ec168/dvb-usb-ec168.fw on palosaari.fi] does work. |

Note that under Windows, the red light on the usb stick lights up, under linux it stays dim all the time (but watching TV with mplayer is just fine) |

[[Category:Demodulator]] |
Revision as of 09:58, 22 April 2014
An USB controller, that also contains an embedded DVB-T demodulator, produced by Tai-Hui and marketed under the brand name e3C Technologies.
This IC is used in many cheap DVB-T USB Sticks. Support is currently very experimental under Linux. (Only the combination with MXL5003S will work and only with 7 and 8 MHz channels.)
EC168 Devices
- If you own such a device please check the pictures below to see if your device is already here.
- If it is then please add the brand and device name you bought it as.
- If your device is not yet here please open it up and see whats inside. (Sometimes the plasic case can differ but the innards are just the same.)
And please, if your device or its PCB differ from the ones that are here, please take some pictures and add them.

SinoVideo SV3420D
USB ID: 18b4:1689 Tuner: MXL5003S
The PCB says SV3420D-V02.
Apparently produced by SinoVideo and sold under lots of different names.

As the windows driver CD is labeled SV3420A and timestamps are rather old, I suspect that the drivers didn't change since SV3420A. Equally the Linux driver should work for all revisions. Remote control part is recognized as HID device by the kernel.
Works with the driver from Antti's mercurial repository as described in [6]
Sweex MM002V2
USB ID: 18b4:1689
Tuner: Microtune MT2060
Works with the driver from Antti's mercurial repository as described in [7] with Ubuntu 9.04 (linux 2.6.18-24). Firmware on the original CD didn't seem to work, but the firmware on palosaari.fi does work.
Note that under Windows, the red light on the usb stick lights up, under linux it stays dim all the time (but watching TV with mplayer is just fine)

WS-DVBTM2 Tevion USB-DVB-T
Cheap offer at Hofer (Aldi) in Austria. Has an EC168 and MXL5003s built in, which refers to the E3C reference design. Reffering to the link, the system only freezes after loading the dvb-usb-ec168.ko module under debian 5.0 unstable. All other modules load fine. Maybe other distros and/or hardware has better success. It's even impossible to load the firmware via dfu-ec168
DUTV007B USB TNT Basic LIGHT (GRTNTUSBV4)
USB ID: 18b4:1001
Tuner: MXL5003S
Works with the official 2.6.35 experimental module (see HOWTO on Ubuntu 10.10)
Sold as
- DUTV007B USB TNT Basic LIGHT from PC-Basic (Graphics)
Same USB descriptors as SinoVideo 3420A-2, but with another PID... IR is detected directly by the hidraw driver (usbhid)
The PC-Basic v4 USB Stick contains following chips :
- EC168 (USB 2.0 µ-controller, could be also a preprogrammed AVR or PIC)
- Maxlinear MXL5003S Tuner [8]
- EEPROM 24C02N I²C 0xA0 (256 Bytes) [9]
The windows driver also upload the 7109-bytes sized firmware (EC168BDA.bin) to get the device working...
Uploading Firmware to the device
- EC168 Direct Firmware Upload tool based on libusb by Tanguy Pruvot : dfu-ec168
Use this tool to upload official firmware EC168BDA.bin (7109 bytes, md5: e168c9f00bcd2bb0121b777a51f32069)
Something interresting with this device : We can patch USB ID and descriptors included in the firmware and/or device memory...

"ZAP" USB DVB-T Receiver
==
Sold by TeknikMagasinet in Sweden since at least 2008, still sold 2013. There exists at least two versions of the hardware, with the same name and similar functionality and design. The product is sold with at least two sw bundles too (that may be related to the hw), older versions were sold with DVBViewer Windows software, newer with Blaze.
Microtune MT2061F
Unknown Device ID: 18b4:fffb Tuner: Microtune MT2061F (Microtune MT2060 variant?)
- Externally identical to the Sinovideo SV3420D above (except the "ZAP" branding). Internally, the PCB is different, the chips are different.
(The PCB has the same main components, but is more heavily populated with resistors, etc. Picture is pending.)
The firmware file EC168BDA.bin (7109 bytes, MD5:ac4392d38f63cfbd81a97e32e55743aa is) is included with the windows driver, together with a 128-byte EEPROM.bin file.

Sold in mid 2009, together with DVB Viewer. The firmware is the same as in the Microtune MT2061F version. The device requires the firmware in the repository to work, not the bundled bin file.
