Kindle 10: Kindle 10 damaged USB port and circuit board solder points

Sun, 25 Dec 2022 15:15:26 -0700

I have a Kindle 10 with a damaged USB port, and the PC board traces are damaged as well. I can catch a piece of the power connections, but the data connections (pins 2 and 3 I believe) are a mystery. Do the pins correspond to any of the TP's on the pc board? I tried a continuity test from the serial connections to the connector on a different generation unit, but it does not look like that's it. Thanks!!

Here's a closeup with the port removed.

Kindle 10: What is this IC?

Thu, 28 Jul 2022 05:55:16 -0700

A bad USB cable has damaged my Kindle, and it will no-longer charge off the USB port. I have traced the 5V from the USB port to pin 6 of a small 6-pin IC marked SKB. Pin 1 of the IC appears to be an output, but no voltage appears on pin 1 whether the USB cable is connected or not. I suspect that this IC is damaged, but I can't identify it. Any help would be appreciated.

Edit: Here is an image of the IC.

Not sure of the package, but it is smaller than a 6 pin SOT-23
