DescriptionIntel B360 Cannon Point Chipset Die Shot.png
English: This is the PCH/Chipset from a 9th Gen Intel motherboard. It has an S-SPEC of SR408.
This chip is quite different than anything I've ever tackled before and is the most technologically recent chip I've ever opened. The razor method stopped making progress near the end and I used glass etching paste for ~5 minutes to try and clear a difficult layer before going back to the razor again. This unfortunately caused scratches.
I should have used a pencil eraser instead of going back to the razor method after etching. The big scratch near the center wasn't there after etching and only appeared after the second round of the razor method.
