Hey all!
I have to replace one of these which is very much fried (via short circuit). But have issues with orientation.
The orientation of the chip is supposedly the same in both depictions, yet...
The motherboard's schematic suggests that C462 and R458 are to the left (circled): http://i.imgur.com/Nmnk7.png
Yet in this picture I took of the chip in question, C462 and R458 are at the bottom: http://i.imgur.com/GxnTM.jpg
What the heck! Should I follow the schematic or the picture? I'm now freaked that the (original) chip may have had its orientation markings printed wrong or something.
The voltages read off the chip appear to be coherant with the schematics, so I'm leaning towards the chip orientation marking being wrong.
Thanks!
