Hi everyone,
I’m working on a PS5 motherboard and testing the capacitors located underneath the SSD Controller IC (indicated by the arrows in the attached image).
When testing in continuity mode, these capacitors produce a beep/short. I have two quick questions for experienced technicians:
1. What is the expected normal reading (Resistance or Diode Mode value) for these specific capacitors?
2. Is a low impedance / continuity reading normal on these power rails, or does this indicate a failed SSD Controller IC?
Thanks in advance for your help!
