WiseView LMU7I42M1 Mercury2 K32P8BF

There is this Dell 2709Wb 1080p monitor, first it had lines across one of its sides, black lines, I traced it down to ribbon cables, but then the other side went gibberish. There is this chip on t-con, WiseView Mercury2 LMU7141M1 K32P8BF
I need datasheet for this chip, it's proving hard to find.  :palm:

I got this monitor and a system block for $15 back in May, system block turned out to be really nice, Asus P5Q3, it is down at my work bench, excellent rig for manuals and stuff, and I hanged monitor on the wall, right in front of me. But the thing went bad, unfortunately. To fix it, I will either have to source a used t-con or buy new chip. Basically, all I need to know from the datasheet is if this thing is programmable. If it is, then I should look for a used t-con that matches my panel, if not, then it should be a simple chip replacement. It should cost me around another $15 to fix this monitor, and around $30 to $40 for top of the line Xeon CPU and memory. Then I would have a rig running at 3.9 to 4.2 ghz, with plenty of ram, which will be used for PDF, internet, and video from microscope, and some older version of Sony Vegas for 1080p video editing.

I mean, I could buy a brand new monitor, they are cheap nowadays, $110 for a brand new 1080p 27 inch, so if fixing this monitor really quick doesn't work out, I'll just have to spend some cash on brand new monitor.

But it would be really nice to use this older top of the line monitor from back in the day. It has nice picture and is build heavy, not how they make them now, thin and fragile. The couple if bought it from ran a business around 2010 for several years and then monitor and system block were stored in garage, so very little running time. When your wife says get rid of it, you end up selling stuff for cheap. I also bought Microlab Solu 7c from them for $10. Excellent speakers:-//




You can see I took off the chip, this is because I did fiddle with it without microscope, and now looking into it under microscope, I think there might have been a short and a ton of flux, so putting it back on might actually fix this thing.
