What is OrionSchematics?

OrionSchematics by ESTECH is a professional mobile phone schematic and board view software designed for hardware repair technicians. It provides interactive electronic circuit diagrams, PCB board views, component databases, and signal tracing capabilities to diagnose and repair board-level hardware faults.

Core Features

Feature	Detail
Board View	Interactive top/bottom PCB layouts with clickable components. See part numbers, pin connections, net names, and component values. BGA pad-level view for micro-soldering work
Schematic View	Full circuit diagrams organized by functional block: PMIC, CPU, baseband, display, charging, audio, RF, WiFi/BT, NFC, SIM. Cross-referenced between schematic and PCB for quick component location
Signal Tracing	Click any net to highlight the complete path on both PCB and schematic — trace power rails from battery through PMIC to every IC, or trace data signals from connector to processor
Component Search	Search by part number, component type, or net name. Instant location on PCB and schematic
Diode Values	Reference diode-mode multimeter measurements for key test points — compare measured vs expected to find shorts and open circuits

Supported Devices

Apple iPhone: iPhone 15 series through iPhone 6 — full schematic + board view
Samsung Galaxy: S/A/M/Note/Z/Tab series
Xiaomi, Huawei, Oppo, Vivo, Realme

Use Cases

No Power: Trace VBAT from battery through PMIC, check decoupling caps for shorts
No Charge: Trace USB VBUS through charge IC, check CC lines, verify PMIC charge output
No Network: Trace RF path from antenna through PA, filters, to baseband
No Display: Trace MIPI DSI lanes from AP to display connector, check display PMIC

OrionSchematics uses a time-based subscription with unlimited access during the subscription period.

How to Use OrionSchematics: Step-by-Step

Purchase a subscription from Code-GSM
Access the OrionSchematics platform
Search for your device by model name or number
Open Schematic view: Navigate the full circuit diagram with zoom, pan, and component click
Open Board View: See the physical PCB layout with component placement
Trace a signal: Click on any net or component to highlight all connections

Tips

OrionSchematics provides both mobile phone and laptop schematics
Use the schematic to plan your repair: identify the suspected component, then use Board View to find it on the actual board
Reference diode mode values to confirm component health without full disassembly

Common Repair Scenarios — Step-by-Step with OrionSchematics

Symptom	How to Diagnose with OrionSchematics
Phone has no power / dead	1. Search your model → open Board View. 2. Locate PMIC (Power Management IC). 3. Check schematic for VBAT rail from battery connector → trace through main PMIC to SYS rail. 4. Use multimeter in diode mode at VBAT pad — compare to listed expected value. 5. Short or open value indicates shorted decoupling cap or blown fuse on VBAT line
No charging	Open schematic → USB charging section. Trace VBUS from USB connector → charge IC input → PMIC charge input. Check CC/CC1/CC2 lines for Type-C devices. Verify charge IC VDD/enable signals from PMIC
No network/signal	Locate RF section in schematic. Trace antenna switch → PA (Power Amplifier) → LNA (Low Noise Amplifier) → baseband IC RF ports. Check VCC for PA and RF ICs. Inspect filtering caps on antenna feed lines
No display / backlight	Locate display connector in Board View. Open display schematic section. Trace MIPI DSI lanes from AP to display connector pins. Check display PMIC → OLED bias voltage rails (ELVDD/ELVSS/VCI)
No WiFi / Bluetooth	Find WiFi/BT combo IC. Check VDD/VDDIO power supply from PMIC. Trace 26 MHz or 40 MHz clock signal from crystal/TCXO. Verify antenna connection and impedance matching circuit

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use OrionSchematics on smartphone/tablet?
A: OrionSchematics is primarily a Windows PC application. Check the official site for any web/mobile app version.

Q: How many devices are in the database?
A: OrionSchematics covers thousands of Apple, Samsung, Xiaomi, Huawei, Oppo, Vivo, and other brand models with regular additions.
