It was in a box full of returned Amazon goods (Christmas gag present) …
↓↓↓ Complete description, time index and links below ↓↓↓
So the larger family was unpacking their Christmas gifts, and one of the boys got a box full of returned Amazon stuff (please, really just do that as gag). One of the items in the box was a Chinese made USB charger.
Since that thing was totally unusable in Germany/Europe (the reason why will become clear during the teardown), I confiscated it with a teardown in mind. And so we’re going to unbox and take it apart now.
00:00 Intro – a gag Christmas present (not to me)
00:45 Packaging – nice looking and quite entertaining
04:59 Unboxing – a box, a plastic insert and a wall wart
08:09 Powering – just to have a look at the display
08:55 Destroying – the glued together housing
12:03 Analyzing – the circuitry (save, but won’t deliver)
20:20 Wrap-up – next is hopefully a mailbag, bye

![Melexis MLX90363 Triaxis® Magnetometer & Arduino MCU – The Details (11)
Covering the parameters ORTH_SEL, ORTH_XY and MAPXYZ …
↓↓↓ Complete description, time index and links below ↓↓↓
In the previous video we’ve improved the oscillator frequency measurement, determined/verified the axes of the chip and tackled the first two parameters – VIRTUALGAINMIN/-MAX (link below). Now we’ll have a look at the next parameters.
We start with some errata regarding VIRTUALGAINMIN/-MAX. Then we read up on the ORTH_[SEL|XY|B1B2] parameters in the datasheet and experiment with ORTH_SEL and ORTH_XY. We also look at MAPXYZ and do some housekeeping.
00:00 Intro – we’ll be going through more parameters
00:45 Errata – VIRTUALGAINMIN/-MAX application
03:24 ORTH_[SEL|XY|B1B2] – according to the datasheet
09:02 Housekeeping 1 – active/updateOrth…() methods
11:53 Experimenting – effect of ORTH_SEL and ORTH_XY
25:16 MAPXYZ – mapping X/Y/Z to B1/B2/B3 channels
28:21 Houskeeping 2 – renaming MapXYZ enumerators
30:08 Wrap-up – more config parameters to follow, bye
