Here is a solution to a big problem.

XBOX SERIES X HDMI ALTERNATIVE ESD U21 EASY INSTALL FLEX

This IC is known to fail when the HDMI port is damaged, shorted out or has a power spike. The original IC is a small 3x3mm BGA glass IC which is super fragile and sensitive to heat and movement.

We have a solution to this that will replace this IC with a robust and arguably easier install.

The following will be restored with this PCB in the event the original Booster IC is faulty.

4kUHD @ 120hz = WORKING
4kUHD @ 60hz = WORKING
1440p @ 60 / 120hz = WORKING
1080p @ 60 / 120hz = WORKING
720p @ 60hz = WORKING
CEC (power on / off / input select) = WORKING (Xbox Series X only)

Either way it’s lightyears ahead of the rinky dink “Bypass method“! Which should only ever be used as a diagnostic method.

XBOX SERIES X HDMI ALTERNATIVE ESD U21 EASY INSTALL is an ESD protection and signal conditioning device.

This device is a simple solution that features:

HDMI 1.4, 2.0 & 2.1
8 kV contact ESD protection
DC (I2C) link protection, bidirectional signal conditioning circuit, and dynamic pull-up
CEC bus protection
HPD pulls down, signal conditioning with level shifter and backdrive protection

The GOOD STUFF!!

Short-circuit protection on 5V output
Wake-up from standby through CEC bus
Long and/or poor quality cable support with dynamic pull-up on DDC bus

The WARNING STUFF!!

This is aimed at the experienced / professional repair community as a best effort alternative. Quality tools, experience with removing IC’s and micro soldering is requirement not a recommendation! The removal of the old U21 glass BGA IC HDMIDP1-5F6 is required before install. Not to mention the diagnostic skills to rule out the following before hand:

HDMI port
HDMI Re-Driver IC
HDMI TVS diodes
80 Pin connector and SoC board

This XBOX SERIES X HDMI ALTERNATIVE ESD FLEX will also make an excellent diagnostic tool. If you are used to rebuilding pads for torn HDMI traces, USB-C ports etc, this will be easy for you, once installed, testing can be started in under 45 minutes (if you take your time).

Full, easy to follow instructions will be provided along with a detailed install video.

Due to the technical nature of HDMI repairs we are unable to offer technical support on this.

The installation was very easy. I was done with the complete disassembly and reassembly in maybe 40 minutes the first time. All features work perfectly. Thanks,
