I am from India and also a repair shop owner doing some chip level and also a great follower of Northridge and your videos really help me understand the problem and getting the solution.

I've never come across someone doing chip level service in my state in India. Whatever the problem is they won't even look into it, all they do is wipe the hardisk reinstall the OS. If any hardware problem, throw the hardware away and replace it with new and charge us money. That's all servicing

Mainly the issue is with the customs authorities and not completely India Post' issue. I do not know why DHL or USPS parcels never get lost, even when they get lost, immediately found after enquiry. I wanted to send many mail-ins but seeing the crazy ordeals, i wouldn't send. Lucky that I just found someone like Alex in my city Vizag. If I have extra time, he even shows me how to repair the boards while he repairs. Every city must have a hardworking person like Alex to save devices going to e-waste.

@Coolman6564 2 года назад

You do great work! However, I'd expect a little less than half the original reliability of that component, with it not being soldered to a proper ground copper pour (as you rightly pointed out about "scientists"). Heat can't adequately escape without a solid thermal transfer mass. Over time, that FET will anneal and eventually die. You did everything you could with masterful skill, but exposed pads exist on power components for a reason. Keep up the great work!

@jaye7679 2 года назад

@musicvideoenhancer 2 года назад

I have so many questions. First, how do you replaced the mosfet? They are universal, or do you have a donor board? Second, you soldered many legs of the mosfet together, it didn't need to be individually soldered to their respective pads? About the voltage measure, one probe was being used to touch the components, and the other probe, where it is?

@kyleszen3346 2 года назад

Some will have the same pinout, footprint, and will operate the same. Others will not. It's up to the person making the repair to find suitable replacements. Most non proprietary chips have part #'s you can look at their datasheet to find the specs and use that info for replacements. Mosfets need 3 connections: gate, source, and drain. High current applications will sometimes group multiple legs together to spread out the load. The other probe would be on any of the ground pads/pins. When you're checking for shorts, you're looking for paths to ground.
