- USB devices are identified by a 16-bit Vendor ID (VID) and 16-bit Product ID (PID) assigned by the USB Implementers Forum (USB‑IF) to vendors and to specific products, respectively. VIDs are unique to vendors; PIDs are vendor‑assigned.
- VID 0x1E3D and PID 0x198A are the numeric identifiers to investigate. Many devices appear in OS logs (dmesg, Windows Device Manager) with these values when enumerated.
4.3. Custom Firmware on Generic Hardware
Hobbyist or commercial devices built around Chipsea’s low-cost MCUs (CSU32P20, CS32F030) may retain the vendor’s default VID/PID if the firmware developer did not replace it with a custom USB descriptor.
