Hardware Components Overview of the iRiver H3XX
Board images
I snapped these while I had my player apart (for exercise really), hope they are remotely useful.
This is an international H340. There are hardware differences between this and the US version (the wiring of the USB hosting port at the very least).

LCD Display
We need to find out which display it is.
======================
2 inch, 220x176, 18Bits/pix
This information is extract from here:
http://homepages.nildram.co.uk/~displaze/Html/LCDTFT.htm
Also interesting, i find an LCD search engine here (linked to the LCD with the H3XX size):
http://kr.fpdisplay.com/data/default.asp?Resolution=176X220
It could be this one: LTM020A
Robin V
==========================
JamesLee: By comparing the smeared logo on the above label it has become clear that this module was made by Varitronix (
http://www.varitronix.com).
Currently, the only 176x220 2" module they make is the COG-T200MLF (
http://www.varitronix.com/catalog/LCD/TFTmodule.html#COG-T200MLF).
The similarity as far as where the pins are make the match very convincing. Unfortunately, the diagram doesn't outline which IC is used specifically.
I have emailed them regarding the subject, and they responded saying that the controller is an
HD66789R, attaching its datasheet.

RobinVet: I hope you're right, that would be a great news !

Microsemi LX2201 - USB/AC/battery power supply / battery charger
This chip is on the front side of the PCB, between the plug for charging, battery connector and one 12.000MHz crystal oscillator.
It is likely from the die stamp that this is a Microsemi chip (MSC). Based on the description of the location of the chip and a search for iriver on the Microsemi site, it seems that this is the LX2201 linear battery charger circuit (for lithium ion batteries). This device is USB bus compliant. There should be an output from this device that provides the charging status (in process, level of charge, etc).
It is possible that this chip is not the same in the US and Euro versions, precipitating the "missing" devices around the US USB host. Since the MSC LX2201 is already USB compliant, it may well be that those components are to make up for the hardware shortcoming of the charging chip on the Euro model. Someone needs to confirm whether this chip is the same in the US and Euro devices (the one shown above may be the Euro chip? I'm going to see if MSC has a euro site).

Philips TEA1211 DC/DC Converter
If we can trust easydigi.com (

Btw, this combination (Philips PCF50606 PMU & Philips TEA1211 DC/DC conv.) is being used in iPods 3rd generation also (see
http://www.elecdesign.com/Articles/Index.cfm?ArticleID=9500&pg=2)
Definitely the same combination, (
iPod 3rd Gen's PCB back - right-top), but the PMU is an older revision (PCF50605)
Cypress ISD-300LP USB 2.0 to ATA/ATAPI Bridge
Again info from easydigi.com (
http://www.easydigi.com/news/2004/7/7/news_361.htm), because on the scan of the front side of PCB that i have there is a white sticker on the chip.
The same as H1x0's one.

Can someone find a good picture of this chip? (It's located on the front side of PCB next to the SDRAM & the USB 1.1 Host controller)

Differences between Northamerican (aka US) and International versions
Missing 5 components for the USB HOST power supply
Missing 5 components in the US version on the front side of the PCB. You can see them on the following pictures (marked with red, new one with blue):
International version:
US version:
(Note: the red wire is "modding" of US H3x0, i.e. it is missing in an untouched US player)
Location of these components:
Its almost sure that these (red) missing components are related to supplying power for the devices, attached to the USB host of ISP1362.

Anyone who can help finding other hardware differences between the US and the International versions of H3x0?

Recognizing which remote is pluged in (the H100 or H300 remote with or without LCD)
LinusNielsenFeltzing: Hmm. This means that we have yet not found a way to distinguish between the two remotes. The only difference between inserted and extracted remotes is the GPIO30 pin, which we already know is the remote detect pin. BTW, I have an H300 remote, so I'll work on this when I find the time. Good work anyway, guys!
HristoKovachev : I've just made my h300 remote to behave correctly (no detection of remote type, of course). If someone is interested, i can make a patch (or give full rockbox.zip) tonight
LinusNielsenFeltzing: Just add the patch to the patch tracker.
HristoKovachev: I'll do it ASAP. BTW, Rockbox for sure doesn't get all the info it can from the remote. I tryed my NON-lcd remote (the one that comes with Intl players) and the only change in View I/O Ports was when i press the Play/Pause button (which is also used for powering the unit on). As probably expected, the change is in GPIO1_READ (last byte 0x74->0x34). The remote also has "<<", ">>", Vol up and Vol Down (and hold switch). However, none of these caused any change in any of the readings.
MatthiasM: I can confirm the H300 NON-LCD remote behaviour. I added it to the above table... (Linus, do you own such a NON-LCD remote?)
LinusNielsenFeltzing: Yes I have one. It is very different from the LCD ones. I'll have a stab at it in due time.
BradCampbell: Non-LCD-remote ADC values Idle : 0xFF (Unplugged or no button pressed) ; Vol + : 0xE4 ; Vol - : 0xC8 ; <<| : 0x33 (skip back) ; |>> : 0x18 (skip forward ; HOLD : 0x00
