TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, US passport holders need a visa to enter Cambodia when traveling from Thailand. They can obtain a visa on arrival for $30 or apply for an E-visa online beforehand. It's important to have cash in US dollars, as other currencies, including Thai baht, are generally not accepted upon arrival.

The following nationalities do NOT require a visa to enter Cambodia:
If you’re flying to Phnom Penh you can fill out the form at immigration, it’s done on a tablet, $30USD fee, be sure to have that amount in cash, Thai baht is not accepted.
