I was installing my HWFLY Lite cables and being extra meticulous. In the process of tinning everything perfectly, one pad didn’t seem to be sticking. Turns out it was the backside of the tiny circuit board for the mosfets on the SP 1/2 board.
Of course I was shaking a bit and promptly slid all the mosfets and resistors off in a big ball of solder!!!
I already ordered a backup cable. It’s only $10.00 from Ali, but 3-4 weeks out, so in the mean time I would like to try and repair my mistake. A schematic would be wonderful but my expectations are realistic that these don’t exist.
On the bright site I guess I can tone out my (now) bare cable and create that simple schematic now, eh? LOL
Bottom Line: Does anyone have a detailed picture of the back side of the HWFLY Lite SP 1/2 cable?
I found this…
from this thread:
https://gbatemp.net/threads/sx-core-pcb-leaked.591580/
If I tone it out and it matches, Imma go for it.
e: so I got all the pieces I could find. Got the solder off of them but haven’t decided if they are even worth cleaning all the flux off. :-(
Cable at the top left is the unused V1 cable from the HWFLY core kit.
Cable at the bottom left is the Lite cable I “solder-wiped” clean of all components.
Two “big“ components I assume are both going to be mosfets? That weird pad layout is confusing. Gonna have to read more.
The little guy I initially though was a resistor, might be a capacitor?
The two used pieces of wick are the solder I sifted through like a pig in shit looking for corn.
Based on the cable pads I’d say I lost two radially aligned components. le sigh.
I’m left wondering what they could be and why does this cable look so different from the V1?
Tempted to take apart my V2 to look at its cable but afraid I’ll do it and learn nothing more.
I think it might be better to just wait until the replacement cable comes in.
I just hope I can leave well enough alone and not break something until then.
e2: I already answered my own question elsewhere about the mosfets. They are supposed to look like that!
Now if I just knew something about the other missing components…
Just found this thread:

@eseldiem posted the mosfet data sheet…
…and more importantly the resistor values!
Time to over pay for some electronic components on Amazon and have them overnighted so I can break some shit tomorrow!

( know they are for core and v2 but I just needed a little hint (or two.)
ordering parts…
