      i'm sure technically, yes, but replacing them, i'm sure is somewhat insanely difficult

          Exactly ? I am well aware of that ... so maybe it needs a completely different approach and I am happy to say I have now found where they can be purchased ..thanks

              If you've had enough BGA rework experience and a proper BGA rework machine, it's no different than replacing other BGA chips.

                      It's heat resistant plastic IIRC. Won't melt at the temperatures used for soldering/reworking, but if you overheat it, then it will melt. Most onboard connectors and slots are like that too.

                          Interesting, I did not notice that. I will try it some day.

                              Mind sharing where you found them forsale? I have a board I would like to get a new socket for.

                                  There are dozens of sellers on ebay selling them.

                                      Old Dell E5400 Laptop ( Purchased in the year 2008)
                                      by Mots06
                                      Hi, I'm unable to find the motherboard number (PPID number) or the board view for this old laptop. My laptop won't start, and when I enter the serial number on the Dell website, it says the number is invalid. The sticker on the bottom is unreadable because it has faded over time. Unfortunately, I'm unable to start the laptop to use the power cell or explore other options.I needed the CMOS Cell & it also seems the Laptop will not start now because of the power switch issue, which is yet to be detected.

                                      good quality DIP sockets
                                      by tony359
                                      Hi there,

                                      Can anybody recommend a source of good quality DIP sockets please? I'm getting mine from Ebay and they feel very flimsy. If I plug a previously desoldered chip, the sockets get permanently deformed and the pins to solder through the PCB are very, very flimsy...

                                      Thanks!
                                      Tony

                                      Need to Replace small QFN very close to DIMM sockets - suggestions?

                                      Hi guys
                                      You can see the attached pic - the QFN is faulty and needs changing. It is closer than 1cm to the DIMM sockets and of course I must not damage these

                                      So.... best suggestions and techniques please. Desolder and Resolder. I have some thoughts myself but don't want to distort the responses...

                                      RJ45 Block Diagram / Schematic

                                      RJ45 network connectors are most commonly found at either end of an Ethernet (wired internet) connection. At first glance, they appear similar to the familiar telephone plugs and jacks which connect landlines to walls or switchboards. However, RJ45 connectors are typically slightly larger.

                                      The term RJ45 connector is widely used today to describe both male RJ45 plugs and female RJ45 sockets. The plugs, sometimes called modular connectors, are usually found on the end of Ethernet cables. The sockets or jacks are generally embedded in the device...

                                      Best solvent for removing thermal paste from LGA sockets?
                                      by dicky96
                                      So I have TUF Z390 mobo with a bit of the grey thermal paste in the LGA 1151 socket right near one edge. probably from when the clamp was fastened down without a CPU fitted, and there was a bit of paste on the clamp.

                                      The motherboard actually works fine (you can see there is no thermal paste on the ends of the pins themselves), but it would be nice to clean it out.

                                      I've done a bit of googling and found suggestions from using this stuff....
