Looking for a place to buy a power board for a tablet

[jwilliamson1992]

Hi i have a tablet that is broken. I've tested it with a voltage tester and deduced that the board that sends power throughout the tablet is broke somewhere. The board has no descriptors on where it was made or what it is exactly called.

I'm asking to see if anyone knows of a site that carries boards for tablets. I've been searching for a broken tablet that is the same model in hopes of just taking it from a broken one but its a newer one so i haven't had much luck in finding parts but if i replace this piece of the puzzle i have a good feeling that i can get it to work again.

The tablet is a nextbook 11 ares it doesn't have any warranty and i don't feel like buying a new one i'd rather learn how it works and attempt to fix it on my own through testing. Any help in locating parts or a broken one would be appreciated. I've searched a little on Mouser and Digikey two sites that have electronic parts but i wasn't able to narrow down my search results.

email support see if they sell that part as a service part.a lot of service parts will have short part numbers on the part.

also try another ac adaptor to see if the adaptors not outputting the right voltage.

Already test another adapter result was the same with the original that's when i took it completely apart to inspect the solder on the charging area but it was all intact that's when i used the tester to see if voltage was making it from the charging port into the board and the results were the charger had a 6V read but when I tested the board it was only getting .5v to 1v and as i said the charging port looked fine and so did the board. I could even try finding another charging port and solder it to the board but i'm not sure what they call the charging port specifically as a part. Also unplugged batteries and sent power right through the device the result was the same it would flash the keyboard so it was getting a little voltage but not enough to power the device.
