Over solderd Pulsevu2 chip
« on: April 02, 2008, 08:02:52 AM »
last night i was in the middle of soldering AR point on my Pulsevu2 and it just came off. After that I tried to re-solder to the point and it wont stick and it looks all burnt. Ill have pictures later today to better describe what my situation.

Is there an way to fix the chip or any other point to solder to?
Or should just order a new one.

Order a new one. There have been soo many warnings about that. Since the chip ain't too heat resistant, leaving the soldering iron too long will screw the chip off and can even burn the points out. It happened to me with LED swapping, and that's using the DS motherboard, so this thing is like easy to burn out. If there's still any metal you can solder it to in the AR point, then by all means try, but looks like you will have to order a new one.

See the resistor above the writing saying AR? Solder to the side of the resistor that is facing the writing, there you go.

No you can't.

Now for AL you need to solder to the resistor on the top left, right on the left next to the text saying PulseVU 2, the point that is facing up is the side you need to solder to.
