Wifi
Xbox One
First revision of the Xbox One has both chipsets on the same PCB, a 8-pin connection goes from the PCB to the motherboard.
Communication is via 2x USB data-pairs. IMPORTANT: The board is operated via 3,3V, standard USB is 5V!
USB VID: 0x1286
- Marvell Avastar 88W8897 (PID 0x2045)
- Marvell Avastar 88W8782U (PID 0x2040)
Both chips require a firmware blob to be uploaded.
