 +====== 206.204.62 KORTLINJE ======
  
 +<blockquote>Alarm clock with hygro-/thermometer, red, 18x6x7 cm</blockquote>
 +
 +===== Disassembly =====
 +
 +  - Battery cover
 +    - Loosen 2× M2×7 captive screws
 +    - Remove the part
 +  - Battery holder and rear button plate
 +    - Remove 5× ST1.7×6 screws
 +    - Lift up the part
 +    - Insert a long screwdriver e.g. a test pen to push on one of the retaining tabs on the rear plate
 +    - Pull upwards on the corner to free it (do not pull too hard to avoid breaking the other tab that is still engaged)
 +    - Push on the remaining retaining tab while pulling upwards to free it too (be careful not to re-latch the other tab)
 +    - Remove the part
 +  - Power board
 +    - Remove 4× ST1.7×6 screws
 +    - Lift up the part and flip it over to the bottom side of the board to free it
 +    - The part cannot be removed fully as the wires are soldered on both ends
 +  - Mid-frame
 +    - De-route the power cord from the cord grip
 +    - Remove 6× ST1.7×6 screws
 +    - Remove the part
 +  - Main board
 +    - Remove 8× ST1.7×6 screws
 +    - Lift up the part and free it
 +    - The part cannot be removed fully as various wires are soldered on both ends
 +
 +===== Main Components =====
 +
 +  * U6 is an unmarked IC (SOIC-16N package) and likely an 8-bit MCU running the show

 +    * Pin 7 ↔ GND
 +    * Pin 11 ↔ SDA
 +    * Pin 12 ↔ SCK
 +    * Pin 14 ↔ Buzzer
 +  * U1, U2, U4 are VINKA VK1640 (SOP28 package) LED drivers
 +  * U3 is an unmarked IC (TSSOP-24) and likely an RTC
 +    * Pin 2 ↔ GND
 +    * Pin 14 ↔ CK testpoint
 +    * Pin 15 ↔ 32.768 kHz crystal
 +    * Pin 16 ↔ 32.768 kHz crystal
