<p dir="auto">Unfortunately, M5 doesn't seem keen on publishing the actual revision details, which has led to a few issues.</p>
<p dir="auto">V1.0 had QC charging issues, and this model has published schematics.</p>
<p dir="auto">V1.1 and V1.2 are unclear revisions that fix this charger issue. The back print also changed to now include a "5V ONLY" warning on the USB port. However, schematics are not available at this point, nor is there an actual changelog.</p>
<p dir="auto">The first issue that is quite apparent to me, is related to the USB_DET line. Based on the 1.0 schematics, USB_DET is connected to the 5V USB line, via a simple 5.1k/5.1k voltage divider. This should result in a 2.5V readout, and based on code samples (written for the 1.0 revision), a simple multiplication by 2.0 should give the actual USB voltage.</p>
<p dir="auto">Well, on my V1.2 units, the raw readout is 0.280-0.299V (0.283-0.285 with a 5.03-5.04V input, 0.290-0.97 with a 5.18-5.20V input, verified with a USB-C power monitor). This requires a weird, 16.3-16.7V multiplier depending on the voltage, to get 1/100 precision (multiplier gets lower as voltage grows).</p>
<p dir="auto">I know it's a minor issue, but still, the fact that there are such undocumented changes, is quite annoying.</p>
<p dir="auto">Could we please get the V1.1 and V1.2 schematics and actual itemised changelog released please?</p>
