Details

The iPad 9 is a common school and business tablet, and charging faults are among the most frequent board repairs on it. The 343S00388 is a 182-pin USB charging IC listed for the A2602, A2603, A2604 and A2605.

A second listing offers the 343S00389 for the same iPad with the same pin count. Read the marking on your board and order the part that matches it. No board position is given.

Problems listed for this chip

  • When a computer connection keeps dropping.

  • If the iPad won't charge on a working adapter.

  • When charging behaves erratically.

  • If charging is slow even overnight.

How to approach it

Rule out the cable, the charger and the Lightning port first. A 182-pin chip is a large BGA, so plan for proper bottom heat and a matching stencil for reballing.

Open the screen carefully, disconnect the battery and locate the chip in board view. Lift it, clean the pads, reball and fit the replacement. Test charging and a computer connection before closing. Leave the iPad charging for a while and watch that the percentage climbs, then refit the screen with fresh adhesive so it sits flat and stays sealed. Keep the old chip marking noted on the repair ticket for future reference.
