What Chip is this?

[g0aw4y]

I am extrmely new to switch modding and bought a mod chip on AliExpress a few weeks ago. This Chip now has arrived and i'm looking for Diagrams for soldering. The problem is I can't find informations on this chip and since the AliExpress seller deleted the product I can't even Look there. I would be very thankful if someone could send me informations on the chip or even just tell me the name.

It's an ARM processor. The name is GD32F350 (as said on the chip).

I honestly have no idea what modchip this is. Where did you even buy it? Some no-name store on Aliexpress?

It was basically the only store that was showing for me in germany. I attached a screenshot of the now deleted Store page. The full name of the seller was "Wholesale Game Console Accessories Store".

This is the chip HWFLYOfficialStore sells. It's for the Switch Lite.

This is the chip HWFLYOfficialStore sells. It's for the Switch Lite.

Is there a Diagram for where the connections should be soldered?

It's likely to be a GigaDevice Semiconductor CPU (as it's said on top of it) - ARM Cortex-M4 core.

P.S. the link to the product page - https://www.gigadevice.com/product/mcu/arm-cortex-m4/gd32f350cbt6

Do you even need to solder anything on the modchip itself? The cables I guess covers all the points

Isn't it necessary to solder the cables to the points? That's what I was told by a friend.

I'm not an owner of Switch, neither modchip , however, briefly looking on YT, I've found this video about installing V1/V2 modchips. I guess it should give you some idea what you need to look for... Just take a note, the video itself might not be suitable for your specific case. Just consider it as a starting point from where to look. Good luck.

That is most likely a HWFLY - a SX Core clone.
