OrangePC 540 missing capacitors.
Posted by: eastone on 2022-09-26 08:21:41
Hi,
many years ago I bought an OrangePC 540 card. She was waiting for a moment when I would have time for her 😉
When this moment finally came, it turned out that the card is missing a few smd capacitors (se pics). One memory slot also does not work. Generally the card works fine (with one sdram module) but is it safe to use it? If not, how to match the missing elements? Ram slot is not very important to me.
Is there anyone who can help me?
Regards,
Kristoffer

Weird, they look removed rather than broken.

If I remember correctly, they were shattered and therefore there are traces of soldering. It was impossible to identify or measure them.

Sorry for not so precise description in the first post. As I said I bought this card many years ago.
