Device evaluation of monitor sn (b)(4) has been completed.The reported problem (lcd display black/blank, will not power on) has been confirmed.Upon investigation the monitor would not fully power on.The cause for the blank screen was isolated to a shorted component u608 on the computer/analog board.Additionally, the monitor exhibited a flash memory failure at bga components u102 and u105 on the computer/analog board.Root cause investigation into devices exhibiting similar failures modes indicates likely intermittent bga connections.The intermittent connections are likely induced by mechanical stress.The exact source of the mechanical stress has not been positively identified but the intermittent connection may have been accelerated through rough handling.The root cause for the shorted u608 component could not be positively identified.No adverse event resulted from the defective monitor.
