Got my uConsole CM4 Lite, and there was a loose SMD diode floating around the box, and no idea where exactly that came from… The size is about 3.5mm, so it’s a pretty large one. Haven’t heard from support yet, but I wonder if anyone would be willing to snap a few pics of their mainboard and other PCBs to compare? Or lend a pair of keen eyes
I did a quick opening of mine but I don’t want to do a full disassembly (with keyboard board etc.). Anyway, I have no element either in the place you circled, so that’s not what I would suspect.
Check the back (carried-board-facing) of the CM4 board, there are 3 similarly-looking chips next to each other, maybe it’s one of those?
Had two smd parts ripped off during shipping on my devterm too.
The dip switches on the devterm keyboard
And a capacitor on the cm4.
Both got replaced by clockwork pi, just took some time for the replacement to finally arrive…
