Accessory Port / EHCI


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

It is commonly thought that api to enable the port was removed in 1.69 however. This is 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 the full sized USB Port on the PlayStation TV.

Unoffical usage

There have been some usage of the accessory port outside Sony

VitaShell

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

Simular Connectors

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.
