MiSTer FPGA Forum

So the Micro USB port on my MiSTer where you plug USB_OTG devices into seems to be on the frits. I have to be careful how far i insert the usb into this OTG port otherwise no devices work. Im going to attempt to replace this USB port but im not 100% sure what USB port it actually is, i dont want to buy the wrong type and replace it to find out and then have to redo it again.

So does anybody know the part number or proper name for the Micro USB OTG port on the MISTer?

You want part # "47589-1001". You can get them from Mouser, their part number is "538-47589-1001".

If you are not confident with your soldering skills I would think twice before attempting it, the pins have a tiny footprint and it's in the vicinity of a lot of very small, very vital SMD components.

Thanks.

I have a hot air station so ill use that and cover the board bar the usb port with tinfoil to reflect the heat and Kapton tape
