: Dual-channel onboard LPDDR3 or DDR4 RAM. Because memory chips are soldered directly to the PCB to preserve the thin profile, tracking down shorted RAM capacitors via the schematic is a frequent necessity.

Once you have the schematic (typically a PDF of 30-50 pages), a systematic approach is key.

When a power source connects to the Type-C port, the charging IC manages the entry protection MOSFETs. Once opened, it establishes the primary system rail, usually labeled as VIN or +19V . 2. Always-On Power States (S5/S4)
