    Faulty Skybox F5s

    Hello I'm Richard

    A mate at work had an F5s box for a few years that stopped working (died but red led glows faintly and the 3rd digit on the 8888 display glows slightly), seeing as I repair TV's and other bits and bobs as a hobby he gave me his skybox to see if I could fix it for me to use.

    opened it up an found a little 8 pin power IC with two little holes in it, problem is the text written on it is very faint and partly damaged,

    Its U7 located to the lower right hand side of the main chip, above the controller for the 8888 display level with the crystal

    Looks like it says AA635B but searching doesn't return any results, does anyone know the part number?

    tried to upload 3 images all less than 620x280 90kb but it wont have it!


    Cheers
    Richard

      I'll try to upload them Monday using a different computer or pic format as it wouldn't let me even though they were the right size and format
