- lelandbatey 13y agoYep, it's right here: http://www.catwig.com/google-glass-teardown/teardown/mainboard-cpuside.jpg http://www.catwig.com/google-glass-teardown/teardown/mainboa... Of the three largest chips, it's the furthest to the right (in case the large Texas shape didn't tip you off ;) ).
- miahi 13y agoThat's a TWL6030 power management chip, used for charging and powering the board from the battery. There are no side photos, but sometimes there is a trick you can do with the OMAP: put it under the RAM. It can provide pins for the RAM to be soldered on.
- jevinskie 13y agoYup, the BeagleBoards do this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Package_on_package https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Package_on_package
- sas 13y agoYeah it should be under the Elpida memory module. We did not desolder that for this teardown.
