Morphology

unfried = fried (semi-transparent) = un + fried

Morphologically clear as 'un-' + 'fried', but the electronics sense is an informal metaphor (overheated/damaged) that may not be obvious to all learners.

Etymology

Unfried joins un- 'not' with fried, and in everyday tech talk fried can mean 'burned' or 'destroyed by heat'. So calling a chip or board unfried is a quick way to say it was 'not damaged' after a surge or overheating.
