Does anyone have a pinout for this chip?

Is there not a part number on the chip?

I have to get a magnifying glass because I can't see the numbers, however that number I gave is what they're saying is the only compatible part in existence for a replacement.

Are you saying U18 is the only marking available?

U18 is just the board component identification number, not the I.C part I.D.

3632-0832-0150R is the whole board part number.

Look for a Service Manual for your model of TV and locate U18 to identify the part.

Vizio 3632-0832-0150 Main Board for VL320M

U18 is on the bottom side of your board, mostly the chip p/n:
W25Q64BV or
MX25L6406E.

I'm assuming on the chip part number. I never work on this model Vizio VL320M

Give me a few minutes and I will come up with a part number or where you can get one. I repaired a Visio 32 in. and had to replace the chip.

Ok here is the part number you need if you are talking about the EEprom chip on the board next to the Large video chip. It is in an area outlined with a white line. By the way Miguel sell this chip on Ebay and programs it. I think the cost is $25.00.

Part Number: MX25L6406E

You might want to read through the Thread on the fix for my tv. It has a reference to a guy named Miguel in Dallas who programed my EEprom for me. Just getting the part from a supplier will not help, it must be programed. This is the link to the thread. https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showth...t=20864&page=6 Pay no attention to all the talk of the TCon board it had nothing to do with the problem. Also read all the way through this Thread as there were several problems you might want to check out. There are three fets that you might also need to replace. They are mentioned in the Thread also.

Hope this helps

Thanks for the help. I was not referring to U18 as the part number. The 0150 is what was listed for a replacement chip in google search. I said U18 because I'm not sure yet what number is on the chip I can't see because of its minuteness...
However, I am now focused on another chip L367 which is another 8 legged IC. I can't find a replacement or pinout. I think it may be shorted out and need a pinout.
Thanks for ALL the help guys.

From my research the part number that I gave you in my previous post is the only problem that anyone has had with ICs in the Vizio tvs. This chip carries all the setup info for the tv and seems to get corrupted easily. I would suggest reading all the Vizio Threads for tvs from 32 to 36" most of them look very similar in design especially the video boards. Reading the threads is time consuming, but will give you some great information. Most problems that people have repeat over and over in a particular brand of tv.

If you did not read the thread on my Vizio fix there is also a need to reflow the main video chip. That may be where the U18 chip get corrupted.

Hope everything works out for you.
