Accessory Port / EHCI[edit | edit source]


The accessory port found only on the original Vita models is a custom port USB interface.

It is commonly believed that code to enable the port was removed in 1.69 however This is actually not true.

Even on the latest firmware the accessory port can be enabled using

   sceUsbServAccessoryActivate

and disabled with

   sceUsbServAccessoryDeactivate


The port is mostly compatible with drivers for the full sized USB Port on the PlayStation TV. Only difference being 3.3v power and logic levels, instead of 5v.

In the FCC filing for the PDEL-1001 development unit. It seems that some dongle attached to the device is used as part of their hardware testing framework.

An Accessory port to USB adapter board was sold on auction sites awhile ago. It comes from a PSVita factory in China that was being repurposed for other things. since production of the PSVita has stopped.

Unoffical usage[edit | edit source]

There have been some usage of the accessory port outside Sony

VitaShell[edit | edit source]

VitaShell can mount a USB Mass Storage device plugged into the accessory port. as seen in this video on youtube

Simular Connectors[edit | edit source]

The sheilding on the port is simular to what is used on the Panasonic K1HA14AD0001 camera.

However. The pin layout on this is incorrect and will short the accessory port if plugged into a psvita.
