    Hi,

    I was curious to know the effect of removing the SAM3X8E completely from the UDOO board.
    Considering the current Android BSP will removing the SAM3X8E cause any hickups?

    Thanks very much.

    Regards,
    Shaunak

    Hi Shaunak, that's actually a great question. We did this procedure with one of our UDOOs with SAM3X broken. To avoid useless power consumption we cut all the connection then we removed the chip. But be careful: the ground lines doesn't have to touch the power lines.
