Chip silkscreen: KF1921
Chip name: WhatsMiner KF1921 Chip
A single Whatsminer M21S hash board consists of 66 KF1921 chips, which are responsible for the hash rate calculation of Whatsminer M21S.
Chip location: UP37
Chip silkscreen: 24C02RP
Chip name: M24C02-DRMF3TG/K
M24C02-DRMF3TG/K is a serial memory (EEPROM) with 2KBIT memory size, I2C memory interface, operating power supply voltage between 1.8V ~ 5.5V, and operating temperature between -40°C ~ 125°C. Chip data retention time, up to 1 million write cycles, Schmitt trigger input for noise filtering.
Chip location: UP39
Chip silkscreen: TAR
Chip name: SN74LVC1T45DCKR
Designed for asynchronous communication between two data buses, the SN74LVC1T45 is packaged in SC70(6) technology and is a single-bit non-inverting bus transceiver. The fully configurable dual rail design allows each port to operate over the full 1.65V to 5.5V supply work within the scope.
Chip location: UP38
Chip silkscreen: 75018093
Chip name: SGM3750
With an integrated switching FET rated for 40V, the SGM3750 is a boost converter that can drive LEDs in series. It is marked in a green TDFN-2×2-6L package, and the operating ambient temperature is between -40°C and +85°C. The boost converter operates at a fixed switching frequency of 650kHz to reduce output ripple, improve conversion efficiency, and allow the use of small external components that prevent the output voltage from exceeding the IC's absolute maximum voltage rating under open LED conditions.
Chip location: UP36
Chip silkscreen: 75825J3A
Chip name: CT75MMR
The CT75 is a digital temperature sensor chip with an accuracy of ±0.5°C and is compatible with SMBus, I2C, and 2-wire interfaces. The operating temperature range is -40°C to 125°C, and the chip has built-in programmable over-temperature/under-temperature protection. In addition, it includes a high-precision bandgap circuit, a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter that provides 0.0625°C resolution, a calibration unit with non-volatile memory, and a digital interface module.
Chip location: UP34
Chip silkscreen: A9jMU
Chip name: Si9183DT-AD-T1
The Si9183DT-AD-T1 is a high-performance and small-size 150mA CMOS LDO (low dropout) regulator. Its ultra-low ground current and dropout voltage extend battery life in portable electronics. The device offers better line/load transient response and ripple rejection than bipolar or Bi CMOS LDO regulators. It is designed to maintain regulation while delivering a 300mA peak current. It is packaged in a thin SOT23-5 and operates between -40°C and 85°C.
Chip silkscreen: 2AB
Chip name: MMBT3906
The MMBT3906 is a 220mV -200mA MOS chip in a SOT-23 package. The operating crystallization temperature is between -55°C and +150°C.
