Sony PlayStation 5 Pro

[JPT]

In all the videos that dismantle the PS5 Pro, do any of them list the chips with id's? Or rather does anybody identify the WiFi chip?

Not sure if anybody did say anything about the wifi chip, I did not follow this thread to closely , but I finally found the chip.

This video did not specifically mention the chip part number, but if you zoom in you can read it.

Which is J20H106, I googled it, but first hit was in a language I could not read, so I ran it through chatgpt.

  • WLAN 5 GHz / 6 GHz: 20 MHz
• Antenna Gain:
  • Bluetooth_1 (ANT3): 4.0 dBiFCC ID+3FCC ID+3FCC ID+3
  • Bluetooth_2 (ANT4): 3.5 dBiFCC ID
  • WLAN_2.4G_A (ANT1): 4.0 dBi
  • WLAN_2.4G_B (ANT2): 4.0 dBi
  • WLAN_5G_A (ANT1): 5.5 dBiFCC ID+1FCC ID+1
  • WLAN_5G_B (ANT3): 5.0 dBi
  • WLAN_6G_A (ANT1): 6.5 dBi
  • WLAN_6G_B (ANT3): 6.8 dBi
• Antenna Type: PIFA/IFAFCC ID
• Antenna Connector Type: U.FL

So if its a 2x2 device then you can get a theoretical link rate of 2.5Gbps, Based on it being a 2x2 , 4096-QAM and 160Mhz bandwith., which is my guestimate.
Wether it supports MLO or not, I am not sure of.

Final post from me on the wifi chip, I promise

I had to do something for work and since the setup was done, I spent a minute in capturing the association request from the Ps5 Pro, sadly it does not support MLO (based on my curious glance at the traffic) with the current firmware I have on it. It might get it in a future fw update, but I am doubtful.
Looking at the pciture I attached, I expected to see a 802.11be MLO TAG.

So sad. PS3's mobo shots generated loads of discussion. Goes to show how far B3D has fallen. I expect PS7 to consist of 4 small, black rectangles and nothing else.

I've seen so many PCBs in my life, much much bigger and more complicated. There's no such thing as a beautiful PCB in my eyes. I also don't think there's a ton to learn that's interesting anymore (in pc, console mainboards), in terms of layouts. Unless you actually work in PCB layout and want to look at hyper-specific things. You can't see signal integrity, and you can't see the many layers underneath the surface.

Isn't a bit boring?
Looks nice, but boring.
Few chips, no clutter, boring.

I haven't looked at this but is there really anything new or interesting revealed in this?

Especially given that the PS5 Pro's been out in the wild and already had tear downs from third parties I wouldn't think it's all that interesting in terms of new information?

That circled highlight of the DRAM module for instance could be mistaken for the ifixit teardown from 6 months ago -

PS5 Pro Teardown: Is a Battery Hatch This Year’s Hottest Repair Trend?

Sure, the PS5 Pro has higher performance, with more RAM. But is it more repairable, too? Short answer: A little bit.

One thing that's pretty great is that the CMOS battery is replaceable. I don't know if that was the case with the OG PS5. But yeah, a nice touch.
