112801 Boardview Updated - Dv15 Mlk Mb

Subject: Technical Analysis and Diagnostic Procedures for the DV15 MLK MB 112801 Boardview

Required Software:

• OpenBoardView (Free, open-source, recommended) – Runs on Windows, Linux, macOS.
• BoardViewer (Legacy, often used with .bv files).
• LCSC’s BoardView tool (Alternative for .CAD files).

Quick repair checklist

• Verify battery presence and BAT TP voltage.
• Check PMIC input and outputs at the newly indexed TPs.
• Inspect MOSFETs and their thermal reliefs — replaced footprints reduce fit errors.
• Confirm GND continuity across planes using the updated ground mapping.
