Dead integrated circuit replacement
Do integrated circuits depend on manufacturer?
Hi, recently 4 circuits broke in my Dell laptop, and I was able to replace 3 of them but couldn't find the fourth one, so my laptop does not turn on anymore. The circuit I'm missing is an AO7400A, and I can find a few of them online but none of them says if it's for Dell or anything, does it matter? Would a generic one fit just fine or are they made specific for different kinds of laptops and manufacturers?
Thanks

Welcome to the Dell Community @Alberkko
That seems to just be a basic MOSFET !!!
The specifications are an industry standard.
To better assist you, the members and I would need the exact model number of your laptop/desktop???
Identify your Dell:
