Oh Crap My D0....
« on: April 21, 2005, 08:22:00 AM »

Yeah...I kinda pulled off the trace.  THats right pulled it right off the board.  I was having trouble getting power to the chip and after i resoldered it, i accedentally pulled to hard and the trace just peeled off like a sticker.  My question is it salvagable, with an alternate d0 or somthing, or is it just screwed? Id kinda like to know today, cuz ive got a lan tommorow, so if i cant fix it, ill just mod my other box with this chip.

Depending on the box version and the D0 you stripped it can be fixed by linking the Top and Bottom D0 points or running a wire from the D0 via through hole to the next sound bit of print (trace). This will reaquire good soldering skills as repairing it is harder than breaking it.
