Anyone know what chip/IC this is?

Hi everyone,

I recently bought a replacement transducer (the inner gold nib) and successfully installed it, but unfortunately, my Apple Pencil still won’t write.

The pencil pairs and charges perfectly, and the double-tap feature works fine, the only issue is with the tip.

I couldn’t find anything obviously wrong, so I disassembled it a bit further and discovered that a specific chip/IC inside is physically damaged (not by me). It looks like it’s been broken for quite some time.

There are no markings on the chip, so I can’t identify or source a replacement. If anyone happens to know what this component is, I’d really appreciate your help.

Thanks for taking the time to read this, I know it’s a long shot, but I figured I’d give it a try.

This is the chip/ic that's damaged.

This is another angle to the chip/ic.

This shows where the chip/ic is.
