Is there a correlation to the part number and the area where it is working

[pecrie]

Hi guys ,

As I'm still learning to work on MB's I was wondering if there is a connection between the part number and the operating area.

Let's say I have the PL800 and PQ801 and PQ802 - they all start with 8xx

Is it safe to say that these parts work in the area for the battery charger ??

And if so , to what other areas are the part numbers starting wit 1xx , 2xx etc referring to ??

This really depends on the design people of the specific schematic.
There is no direct connection between numbers and areas on the board.
Usually each significant part of the schematic starts with a unique number this can be due to many people working on one schematic which is split up into sections.
