Boardview for the Dell Alienware M17 R3 gaming laptop, Compal board LA-J521P revision 1.0, in a 3.67 MB .cad file. Compal manufactures this mainboard for Dell, which is why the LA- number appears instead of a Dell part code. Open it in a boardview viewer such as OpenBoardView or FlexBV to find components, test points and the nets they share, which speeds up tracing a shorted rail or a missing voltage. Check that the revision printed on the PCB matches before trusting the placement data.
