The name is: "Sabrent USB External Aluminum Stereo Sound Adapter für Windows und Mac. Plug and play. Inkl. USB Kabel. keine Treiber erforderlich. (Silber) [C-Media CM108 Chipset] (AU-EMAC)"</p>

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px; -qt-user-state:0;">I will keep the module for future use when you have completed the code for external I/O. I guess you're going to write a library as a wrapper to have a unified way to act on COS/PTT from asterisk and use plugins in that library to trigger GPIOs for every supported platform like one for RPi and one for BBB and so on. Do you have a git repository so we can play with or review the code or will it be closed source?</p>

Interestingly that chip will probably work for audio if setup with the code and then would work in the near future with our code and external I/O for COS/PTT. So don't throw it in the trash. You might be a beta test case. <br /><br />If you have the amazon link please forward and also when you can the 'lsusb' data.</span><a name="FontBreak"></a><span style=" font-family:'Tahoma,sans-serif'; color:#000000;"><br /></span><br /><span style=" font-size:1.3em; font-weight:600;">73 Doug<br />WA3DSP<br />http://www.crompton.com/hamradio</span><span style=" font-size:1.3em;"><br /></span><br /><br /></p>

The chip I mean is named HS100B. It is also produced by <br />C-Media but lacks a lot of features. Here is a link to the chip: <br /></span><a href="http://www.cmedia.com.tw/products/USB20_FULL_SPEED/HS100B"><span style=" font-family:'Courier New,courier'; text-decoration: underline; color:#2980b9;">http://www.cmedia.com.tw/products/USB20_FULL_SPEED/HS100B</span></a><span style=" font-family:'Courier New,courier';"><br />I can't find the datasheet right now, sorry.<br /> <br />Attached to this email you'll find a picture of one of the USB sound FOBs <br />supposedly equipped with a CM108 chip. I took it a couple days ago to write a <br />negative review at amazon. Not that it matters though.<br /> <br />I'm on vacation right now and left the boards at home. I will send you the <br />complete "lsusb -v" output as soon as I get home.<br /> <br />Finding a USB sound FOB with CM119A seems even harder.
