The UNI-T UT612 is a 20000 counts, dual-display, LCR meter with USB/HID connectivity.
See UNI-T UT612/Info for more details (such as lsusb -v output) about the device.
Status: The serial-lcr driver successfully communicates with the UNI-T UT612 when a CDC adapter is connected to the ES51919 chip's UART signals. Transparent communication with the CP2110 serial-over-HID chip is not yet available but is being worked on.
Hardware
- LCR meter chipset: Cyrustek ES51919 (datasheet)
- HID USB to UART bridge: Silicon Labs CP2110 (datasheet)
The ES51919/51920 chipset is found in other LCR meters, too. The chipset communicates via UART (TX only).
The CP2110 USB serial-over-HID chip resides on a separate breakout board, and is connected to the LCR "mainboard" via a three wire flying cable. Red(!) is GND, green is the meter's TX signal, yellow is probably Vcc from USB, RX is not connected.

Protocol
The protocol for the ES51919 was reverse engineered as part of the DER-EE 5000 driver that uses the same chipset. Below is the excerpt from the source code.
Public official documentation does not contain the protocol description, so this is all based on reverse engineering.
