It's really strange, the update version I only remove the resistors and
capacitors, it should not impact the functions at all. Also as you said,
it's not because of something make the bus error like last time, it looks
like the chip only works in full speed.

Hi Wolfgang,

Can you send me one to check it? Note, it's almost Chinese new year, I'll
leave Beijing before the end of this month. I'll back Beijing after it,
about Feb 10th.

Regards,
Yanjun Luo.
