Winbond WPC8763LDG
« on: February 19, 2016, 12:38:13 am »
Hey guys, I'm trying to repair my Toshiba laptop.  I believe that the Winbond WPC8763LDG chip is partially fried.  I have found a very cheap replacement here --> http://www.ebay.com/itm/Brand-New-WINBOND-WPC8763LDG-WPC8763-LDG-Chipset-graphic-IC-chip-/180815951085

My question is, do these chips have a programmable ROM?  If they do what kind of chip reader would I need to read it and how would I go about that?

Any info and replies will be appreciated.

According the datasheet it only has 1K of on-board ROM. My guess is that this is a mask ROM containing a generic bootloader.  Any machine-specific code would then be loaded from external Flash.
