Hi

Im repairing my a1278 logicboard due to water damaged. Ive found out that the airport card and bluetooth card module were not working. Ive replaced both and only the bluetooth works.

The laptop works ok except keyboard backlight, ethernet port and airport. If I can locate what's the name of this IC, on picture below, I can go futher. I do have a schematic manual of the a1278 but I'm trying to get used to it. See picture:



I have all the tools to repair liquid spills but this IC I need to replace. Ive tried a digital camera but the number is not clear.

LDP 005 or LDF 005 or LDF 00S or LDP 00S
I can't find any datasheet on IC (or however it is).
Do you know what it is for?

It seems that the power (external) goes to it via the chip next magsafe connector on the top side of the logicboard.
I my case the resistor/fuse on top side (of this chip) is gone... this one in top next to cap/coil 330 u), can you see the value?
