Title: [SOLVED] Nintendo New 3DS XL | Where to find a spare IC (WiFi)
Post by: w0nk1 on December 14, 2022, 04:46:47 pm
Hi guys,

I just USB-C modded a Nintendo New 3DS XL from 2015. Unfortunately I damaged an IC which seems to be WiFi related. Can anyone tell me, where I can get a replacement part or at least which component this is?
Maybe it is not an IC? Just guessing because of the arrow for the correct placement.

Thank you very much in advance!

Cheers
Markus

The thing you circled is a 4MHz crystal.

It is a 4MHz crystal oscillator in 3225 package, highly suspected to be Kyocera brand
