Working thru a backlog of projects. This old turntable needed a new belt which arrived and installed no issues. I’m getting no audio. The cartridge coils test open. Safe to assume the cartridge is toast? I think I paid $5 for this years ago at a garage sale and only because it’s Realistic gear which I am overly fond of. #realistic #vintageaudio #radioshack #ElectronicsRepair

Restoring an old electronic device. The belts are still good, everything rotates freely. No mechanical jams here, ready for more tapes!

In #EEPROM, the 'pombe' ORG (Organization) pin determines if it's about 8bit or 16-bit🫣!
If a #controlunit mCU pings it to pin 5, then it's 8bit🤷‍♂️!
NOT true, but correct, ORG in most setups, usually not done to pin5, so always do 16bit when NOT sure, #HapaUjanjaTu makes your data adaptable, different #ECU's🤷‍♂️!

Maybe I've already replaced a #RaspberryPi5 CPU before.

But today was the first time I replaced a Secure Boot locked CPU on a Pi 5.

And that's a whole different story - after I replaced a CPU Pi blinked a 1-2 code - "SD card overcurrent detected". Weird.

I tried to restore #EEPROM from a Micro SD - it flashed 3-2 - "SPI EEPROM is write protected".

I soldered another CPU. Same.

I replaced #RP1. Same.

Turns out it was EEPROM.

Hi guys.

Have these chips on Orange Pi 5, but can’t find them neither in the schematic (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Wsp-Q7IyG0Ky_W-z1n5oXcFG4oqIbtOb/view) nor by the chip markings.

Those are tiny bga chips marked as D25DH 6QR73 or D3FEH 68S53.

They are located under the CPU, so must be related.

I also noticed that these same chips on the same model of Orange Pi have different markings but in a similar fashion.

Thanks a lot - as always.

Estate sale digital camera on the bench tonight. I picked it up for $1 because it “didn’t work”. Battery terminals were severely corroded and found one of the button extensions broken inside. After some cleanup and a piece of strategically placed 3D printer filament - it works! #electronicsrepair #camerarepair
