I’ve recently been on a bit of a repair kick and wanted to tell another fun repair story. I promise my blog isn’t becoming dedicated just to fixing electronics.

Plus, you’ll get to learn how focus control works on webcams with autofocus.| Downtown Doug Brown
This post has a little bit of everything. Hardware diagnostics, some suspiciously similar datasheets from two separate Taiwan chip manufacturers, and firmware reverse engineering. Read on if that sounds like fun!| Downtown Doug Brown
