Anyone out there have one of these things? ?It's an oddball, made for IBM by Tadpole
(same guys who made the Sparcbook).
I'm trying to identify a scorched component in the battery compartment of mine in the
hopes that I can get it running again. ?It's next to the memory, on the right hand
side (with the front of the laptop facing toward you) labeled as "TR35" on the
PCB. ?It's an 8-pin surface-mount component, but the one in mine is scorched so badly
it's unidentifiable. ?And I somehow doubt i'll find a schematic :).
Thanks,
Josh
I see an 8-pin IC that is labeled LT 324 0425. It is at the right of
the memory on the motherboard and DIMs. On mine it it is silkscreened
D54 next to the IC.,
The part of the motherboard that you can see in my SPARCBook 3 with
the battery and shielding removed looks identical to the motherboard
in the N40.
