Lenovo Legion Y540-17IRH 81Q4 dead IT8226E-192 chip

[geotox]

Hi, after a short circuit during power cord plug-in the IT8226E-192 chip on my Lenovo Legion Y540-17IRH 81Q4 died. I'm trying to order a replacement for it. There are some similar chips available online, but they are not 1-to-1 identical to my chip. For example, I see there's a 1921BXA chip available for sale, while mine is 1932BXA. Do you guys know if there's any compatibility table available which I can use to see what chips are compatible? Should I just order a similar chip and try it? Will I need to program the chip before installing, or will the laptop do it for me?

Thanks!

You just need BXA is enough. You can program it via the keyboard cable, some chips are pre-programmed and it can work without doing this.
