Lenovo IdeaPad 310-15IKB NM-A981 is a laptop motherboard designed by LCFC and used in the Lenovo IdeaPad 310-15IKB, Lenovo IdeaPad 510-15IKB, Lenovo IdeaPad 510310 and Lenovo IdeaPad 310-15ISK.

The catalog has 3 schematics, 2 boardview files and 15 BIOS files for it, posted between 2018 and 2024 across 5 Telegram channels. Each download button opens the original Telegram post.

The files are marked Rev 1.0; other revisions of the same board can differ in parts and layout.

The boardview comes in .TVW and .BDV format. .TVW files usually need FlexBV or the viewer they were exported for; OpenBoardView handles .BRD, .BDV and .FZ. See How to Open .TVW Boardview Files.

With both a schematic and a boardview you can find a net on the diagram and then locate the same part on the board by its reference designator. No Boardview for Your Board? How to Work Without One shows the workflow.

BIOS notes: some archives also hold EC/KBC firmware. Read and save the original chip contents before you write anything to it — Keeping the Windows Product Key (MSDM) When Reflashing a BIOS.

Also listed under platform CZ513.

Files for this board mention Rev 1.0. The revision is printed on the PCB silkscreen, usually next to the board code. Pick files with the same revision when you can; if yours is not listed, the closest revision is usually fine for the schematic but check part positions in the boardview carefully.
How do I open the NM-A981 boardview file?
The boardview for NM-A981 is available as .TVW and .BDV. .BDV usually opens in OpenBoardView (free) or FlexBV. .TVW usually needs FlexBV or the matching viewer. See What Is a Boardview File and Why You Need One.
What should I check before flashing the NM-A981 BIOS?
Read the original chip with a programmer and save two copies before writing anything. Some archives include EC/KBC firmware, which may need to be written to a separate chip. A dump from another board carries that board's serial number and MAC address, so restore yours from the backup.
