Hardware Specifications
- Component Type: Power Control / Charging IC (Secondary/Small PMIC).
- Package Form: Ball Grid Array (BGA) chip requiring microscopic soldering tools.
- Alternative Part Codes: Often interchangeable or grouped with the MU005X02 or S2MU005X series.
Core Device Compatibility
This chip handles crucial secondary power lines for specific mid-range Samsung mobile phones released around 2016, including:
- Samsung Galaxy J7 2016 (SM-J710F, SM-J7108)
- Samsung Galaxy J5 2016 (SM-J510F, SM-J5108)
- Samsung Galaxy On8 / J7 Prime variants (e.g., G610 series)
Typical Failure Symptoms
If this specific IC malfunctions or shorts out on the logic board, your device will exhibit the following hardware failures:
- No Power: The smartphone completely fails to turn on or remains stuck in a dead state.
- Charging Failure: The device fails to pull current from the micro-USB cable, or shows a charging logo but doesn’t store energy.
- Excessive Overheating: The motherboard develops a hot spot directly over the area where this small PMIC is soldered.
- Fake Charging: The battery percentage drops even when plugged into a working power source.
Repair & Replacement Requirements
Because this is an SMD (Surface Mount Device) chip, fixing it requires micro-soldering experience. You will need a professional rework station, hot air gun, flux, and solder stencil paste to successfully lift the dead component and reflow the new chip.
