BoardView Reader
Motherboard repair & diagnosis
Free · In‑App Purchases
BoardView Reader answers the two questions every motherboard repair tech asks: where do I measure this power rail, and which part do I replace? Open the board's boardview and schematic, locate the rail in one tap, test it with your multimeter and find the reference and value of the component to change — on your phone, tablet and computer.
LOCATE A POWER RAIL
• Search a rail (PPBUS_G3H, PP3V3_S5, VCC_MAIN…) or a component in a single field
• Every point on the same net lights up on the board, top and bottom
• Spot the most accessible capacitor or test point to place your probe
• Flip the board, rotate 90°, show one side or both, just like on the bench
TEST FOR SHORTS
• Measure the rail in diode mode and log the reading in one tap
• Compared with a known-good board, it is judged at once: matches, slight difference, large difference, likely short, open line
• Your reference values apply to every board with the same number; share them as CSV
FIND THE PART TO REPLACE
• Tap a component: its reference, value, voltage, tolerance and package, read from the schematic
• Side, pin count and the net of each pin in the inspector
THE SCHEMATIC IN THE RIGHT PLACE
• Import the board and its PDF schematic with the same name: they are paired automatically
• Tap a component: the schematic opens on the right page, the reference boxed
• Tap a net or a reference in the schematic: "Show on board" takes you back
AN ORGANISED SHOP
• Sort boards into folders: in repair, donors, customers…
• Each board keeps its schematic and its readings
• On a computer: hover info with the mouse and customisable keyboard shortcuts
