 HOW TO READ A SCHEMATIC

Schematics are our map to designing, building, and troubleshooting circuits. Understanding how to read and follow schematics is an important skill for any electronics engineer.

This tutorial should turn you into a fully literate schematic reader! Well go over all of the fundamental schematic symbols:

Schematic component overview

Then well talk about how those symbols are connected on schematics to create a model of a circuit. Well also go over a few tips and tricks to watch out for.

Suggested Reading

Schematic comprehension is a pretty basic electronics skill, but there are a few things you should know before you read this tutorial. Check out these tutorials, if they sound like gaps in your growing brain:

Voltage, Current, Resistance, and Ohms Law
Schematic Symbols (Part 1)
Are you ready for a barrage of circuit components? Here are some of the standardized, basic schematic symbols for various components.

Resistors

The most fundamental of circuit components and symbols! Resistors on a schematic are usually represented by a few zig-zag lines, with two terminals extending outward. Schematics using international symbols may instead use a featureless rectangle, instead of the squiggles.

Resistor schematic symbols

Potentiometers and Variable Resistors

Variable resistors and potentiometers each augment the standard resistor symbol with an arrow. The variable resistor remains a two-terminal device, so the arrow is just laid diagonally across the middle. A potentiometer is a three-terminal device, so the arrow becomes the third terminal (the wiper).

Variable resistor symbols

Capacitors

There are two commonly used capacitor symbols. One symbol represents a polarized (usually electrolytic or tantalum) capacitor, and the other is for non-polarized caps. In each case there are two terminals, running perpendicularly into plates.

Capacitors symbols

The symbol with one curved plate indicates that the capacitor is polarized. The curved plate represents the cathode of the capacitor, which should be at a lower voltage than the positive, anode pin. A plus sign might also be added to the positive pin of the polarized capacitor symbol.

Inductors

Inductors are usually represented by either a series of curved bumps, or loopy coils. International symbols may just define an inductor as a filled-in rectangle.

Inductor symbols

Switches

Switches exist in many different forms. The most basic switch, a single-pole/single-throw (SPST), is two terminals with a half-connected line representing the actuator (the part that connects the terminals together).

Switch symbol

Switches with more than one throw, like the SPDT and SP3T below, add more landing spots for the the actuator.

SPDT and SP3T symbols

Switches with multiple poles, usually have multiple, alike switches with a dotted line intersecting the middle actuator.

DPDT symbol

Power Sources

Just as there are many options out there for powering your project, there are a wide variety of power source circuit symbols to help specify the power source.

DC or AC Voltage Sources

Most of the time when working with electronics, youll be using constant voltage sources. We can use either of these two symbols to define whether the source is supplying direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC):

Voltage source symbols

Batteries

Batteries, whether theyre those cylindrical, alkaline AAs or rechargeable lithium-polymers, usually look like a pair of disproportionate, parallel lines:

Battery symbols

More pairs of lines usually indicates more series cells in the battery. Also, the longer line is usually used to represent the positive terminal, while the shorter line connects to the negative terminal.

Voltage Nodes

Sometimes on really busy schematics especially you can assign special symbols to node voltages. You can connect devices to these one-terminal symbols, and itll be tied directly to 5V, 3.3V, VCC, or GND (ground). Positive voltage nodes are usually indicated by an arrow pointing up, while ground nodes usually involve one to three flat lines (or sometimes a down-pointing arrow or triangle).

Voltage node symbols

Schematic Symbols (Part 2)
Diodes

Basic diodes are usually represented with a triangle pressed up against a line. Diodes are also polarized, so each of the two terminals require distinguishing identifiers. The positive, anode is the terminal running into the flat edge of the triangle. The negative, cathode extends out of the line in the symbol (think of it as a - sign).

Diode symbol

There are a all sorts of different types of diodes, each of which has a special riff on the standard diode symbol. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) augment the diode symbol with a couple lines pointing away. Photodiodes, which generate energy from light (basically, tiny solar cells), flip the arrows around and point them toward the diode.

LED and Photodiode symbols

Other special types of diodes, like Schottkys or zeners, have their own symbols, with slight variations on the bar part of the symbol.

Schottky and zener diode symbols

Transistors

Transistors, whether theyre BJTs or MOSFETs, can exist in two configurations: positively doped, or negatively doped. So for each of these types of transistor, there are at least two ways to draw it.

Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJTs)

BJTs are three-terminal devices; they have a collector (C), emitter (E), and a base (B). There are two types of BJTs NPNs and PNPs and each has its own unique symbol.

NPN and PNP BJT symbols

The collector (C) and emitter (E) pins are both in-line with each other, but the emitter should always have an arrow on it. If the arrow is pointing inward, its a PNP, and, if the arrow is pointing outward, its an NPN. A mnemonic for remembering which is which is NPN: not pointing in.

Metal Oxide Field-Effect Transistors (MOSFETs)

Like BJTs, MOSFETs have three terminals, but this time theyre named source (S), drain (D), and gate (G). And again, there are two different versions of the symbol, depending on whether youve got an n-channel or p-channel MOSFET. There are a number of commonly used symbols for each of the MOSFET types:

Variety of MOSFET symbols

The arrow in the middle of the symbol (called the bulk) defines whether the MOSFET is n-channel or p-channel. If the arrow is pointing in means its a n-channel MOSFET, and if its pointing out its a p-channel. Remember: n is in (kind of the opposite of the NPN mnemonic).

Digital Logic Gates

Our standard logic functions AND, OR, NOT, and XOR all have unique schematic symbols:

Standard logic functions

Adding a bubble to the output negates the function, creating NANDs, NORs, and XNORs:

Negated logic gates

They may have more than two inputs, but the shapes should remain the same (well, maybe a bit bigger), and there should still only be one output.

Integrated Circuits

Integrated circuits accomplish such unique tasks, and are so numerous, that they dont really get a unique circuit symbol. Usually, an integrated circuit is represented by a rectangle, with pins extending out of the sides. Each pin should be labeled with both a number, and a function.

ATmega328, ATSHA204, and ATtiny45 IC symbols

Schematic symbols for an ATmega328 microcontroller (commonly found on Arduinos), an ATSHA204 encryption IC, and an ATtiny45 MCU. As you can see, these components greatly vary in size and pin-counts.

Because ICs have such a generic circuit symbol, the names, values and labels become very important. Each IC should have a value precisely identifying the name of the chip.

Unique ICs: Op Amps, Voltage Regulators

Some of the more common integrated circuits do get a unique circuit symbol. Youll usually see operation amplifiers laid out like below, with 5 total terminals: a non-inverting input (+), inverting input (-), output, and two power inputs.

Op amp symbols

Often, there will be two op amps built into one IC package requiring only one pin for power and one for ground, which is why the one on the right only has three pins.

Simple voltage regulators are usually three-terminal components with input, output and ground (or adjust) pins. These usually take the shape of a rectangle with pins on the left (input), right (output) and bottom (ground/adjust).

Voltage regulator symbols

Miscellany

Crystals and Resonators

Crystals or resonators are usually a critical part of microcontroller circuits. They help provide a clock signal. Crystal symbols usually have two terminals, while resonators, which add two capacitors to the crystal, usually have three terminals.

Crystal and resonator symbols

Headers and Connectors

Whether its for providing power, or sending out information, connectors are a requirement on most circuits. These symbols vary depending on what the connector looks like, heres a sampling:

Connector symbols

Motors, Transformers, Speakers, and Relays

Well lump these together, since they (mostly) all make use of coils in some way. Transformers (not the more-than-meets-the-eye kind) usually involve two coils, butted up against each other, with a couple lines separating them:

Transformer symbols

Relays usually pair a coil with a switch:

Relay symbol

Speakers and buzzers usually take a form similar to their real-life counterparts:

Speaker

And motors generally involve an encircled M, sometimes with a bit more embellishment around the terminals:

Motor

Fuses and PTCs

Fuses and PTCs devices which are generally used to limit large inrushes of current each have their own unique symbol:

Fuse and PTC symbol

The PTC symbol is actually the generic symbol for a thermistor, a temperature-dependent resistor (notice the international resistor symbol in there?).

No doubt, there are many circuit symbols left off this list, but those above should have you 90% literate in schematic reading. In general, symbols should share a fair amount in common with the real-life components they model. In addition to the symbol, each component on a schematic should have a unique name and value, which further helps to identify it.

Name Designators and Values
One of the biggest keys to being schematic-literate is being able to recognize which components are which. The component symbols tell half the story, but each symbol should be paired with both a name and value to complete it.

Names and Values

Values help define exactly what a component is. For schematic components like resistors, capacitors, and inductors the value tells us how many ohms, farads, or henries they have. For other components, like integrated circuits, the value may just be the name of the chip. Crystals might list their oscillating frequency as their value. Basically, the value of a schematic component calls out its most important characteristic.

Component names are usually a combination of one or two letters and a number. The letter part of the name identifies the type of component Rs for resistors, Cs for capacitors, Us for integrated circuits, etc. Each component name on a schematic should be unique; if you have multiple resistors in a circuit, for example, they should be named R1, R2, R3, etc. Component names help us reference specific points in schematics.

The prefixes of names are pretty well standardized. For some components, like resistors, the prefix is just the first letter of the component. Other name prefixes are not so literal; inductors, for example, are Ls (because current has already taken I [but it starts with a Celectronics is a silly place]). Heres a quick table of common components and their name prefixes:

Name Identifier  Component
R          Resistors
C          Capacitors
L          Inductors
S          Switches
D          Diodes
Q          Transistors
U          Integrated Circuits
Y          Crystals and Oscillators

Although theses are the standardized names for component symbols, theyre not universally followed. You might see integrated circuits prefixed with IC instead of U, for example, or crystals labeled as XTALs instead of Ys. Use your best judgment in diagnosing which part is which. The symbol should usually convey enough information.

Reading Schematics
Understanding which components are which on a schematic is more than half the battle towards comprehending it. Now all that remains is identifying how all of the symbols are connected together.

Nets, Nodes and Labels

Schematic nets tell you how components are wired together in a circuit. Nets are represented as lines between component terminals. Sometimes (but not always) theyre a unique color, like the green lines in this schematic:

Example of nets on a schematic

Junctions and Nodes

Wires can connect two terminals together, or they can connect dozens. When a wire splits into two directions, it creates a junction. We represent junctions on schematics with nodes, little dots placed at the intersection of the wires.

A node

Nodes give us a way to say that wires crossing this junction are connected. The absences of a node at a junction means two separate wires are just passing by, not forming any sort of connection. (When designing schematics, its usually good practice to avoid these non-connected overlaps wherever possible, but sometimes its unavoidable).

Example of connected an disconnected nodes

Net Names

Sometimes, to make schematics more legible, well give a net a name and label it, rather than routing a wire all over the schematic. Nets with the same name are assumed to be connected, even though there isnt a visible wire connecting them. Names can either be written directly on top of the net, or they can be tags, hanging off the wire.

Linked name tags

Each net with the same name is connected, as in this schematic for an FT231X Breakout Board. Names and labels help keep schematics from getting too chaotic (imagine if all those nets were actually connected with wires).

Nets are usually given a name that specifically states the purpose of signals on that wire. For example, power nets might be labeled VCC or 5V, while serial communication nets might be labeled RX or TX.

Schematic Reading Tips

Identify Blocks

Truly expansive schematics should be split into functional blocks. There might be a section for power input and voltage regulation, or a microcontroller section, or a section devoted to connectors. Try recognizing which sections are which, and following the flow of circuit from input to output. Really good schematic designers might even lay the circuit out like a book, inputs on the left side, outputs on the right.

Example of a sectioned schematic

If the drawer of a schematic is really nice (like the engineer who designed this schematic for the RedBoard), they may separate sections of a schematic into logical, labeled blocks.

Recognize Voltage Nodes

Voltage nodes are single-terminal schematic components, which we can connect component terminals to in order to assign them to a specific voltage level. These are a special application of net names, meaning all terminals connected to a like-named voltage node are connected together.

Annotated voltage node example

Like-named voltage nodes like GND, 5V, and 3.3V are all connected to their counterparts, even if there arent wires between them.

The ground voltage node is especially useful, because so many components need a connection to ground.

Reference Component Datasheets

If theres something on a schematic that just doesnt make sense, try finding a datasheet for the most important component. Usually the component doing the most work on a circuit is an integrated circuit, like a microcontroller or sensor. These are usually the largest component, oft-located at the center of the schematic.

Resources and Going Further
Thats all there is to schematic reading! Knowing component symbols, following nets, and identifying common labels. Understanding how a schematic works opens up the whole world of electronics to you! Check out some of these tutorial, to practice your new-found schematic knowledge:

How to Read a Schematic

In general terms, a circuit can be described as any group of electrical or electronic devices connected together by conductors. Conductors are most often metallic, and wires were the conductor of choice in the past. Old radios and other electronic equipment were often a rat's nest of wires. Today, it's more common to find metallic pathways, often called traces, on a board constructed of a mixture of fiberglass and epoxy. The terms board and card are interchangeable.

A schematic in electronics is a drawing representing a circuit. It uses symbols to represent real-world objects. The most basic symbol is a simple conductor, shown simply as a line. If wires connect in a diagram, they are shown with a dot at the intersection:


Conductors that do not connect are shown without a dot, or with a bridge formed by one wire over the other:


Among the connections are power and ground, the high and low system voltages respectfully. The 5 volt system power in the schematic is shown simply as 5V. There is also a +12V supply and a -12V supply. Ground, or 0 volts, has its own symbol:


A switch is a device that is capable of allowing the user to break the circuit as if the wire had been broken. Its symbol reflects this characteristic:

The three switches in the diagram are grouped in a Dual In-line Package (DIP).

A resistor is a device that resists the flow of charge. Its symbol reflects this characteristic by making the line jagged:

Just in case you have seen "flow of current" elsewhere rather than "flow of charge", see "Science Myths" in K-6 Textbooks and Popular culture and the definition of current below.

The unit of resistance is the ohm, pronounced om with a long o. The K in the schematics stands for kilohm or thousands of ohms. 10K means the same as 10,000. Meg and sometimes M mean megohm or million ohms. 4.7Meg or 4.7M is the same as 4,700,000.

You will see two variations on resistors in the schematic. One is the resistor array or network. It is a Single In-line Package (SIP) containing several resistors connected together. They can be found in many configurations. The one used here simply connects one end of the resistors to each other and brings them out to a common connection. The other end of each resistor is left free. Another variation is the variable resistor. It has a third contact that can move along the resistor element to permit the values at that point to be variable. The moveable part is called the wiper and is shown as an arrow.

There is a relationship between voltage, current and resistance that is expressed by Ohm's Law, which says that Voltage is equal to Current times Resistance, or:

V = I * R

V is voltage (often referred to as Electromotive Force where E rather than V is used), I is current and R is resistance. Current is expressed in Amperes, or amps for short. Very little current is used in typical electronic circuits, so milliamps, which means 1/1000 amp, is used. One milliamp = .001 amp. It's abbreviated ma, or sometimes MA.

To paraphrase a definition of charge from whatis.com :

"The coulomb (symbolized C) is the standard unit of electric charge in the International System of Units (SI). It is a dimensionless quantity. A quantity of 1 C is equal to approximately 6.24 x 1018, or 6.24 quintillion."

"In terms of SI base units, the coulomb is the equivalent of one ampere-second. Conversely, an electric current of 1 amp represents 1 C of unit electric charge carriers flowing past a specific point in 1 second. The unit electric charge is the amount of charge contained in a single electron. Thus, 6.24 x 1018 electrons have 1 C of charge. This is also true of 6.24 x 1018 positrons or 6.24 x 1018 protons, although these two types of particles carry charge of opposite polarity to that of the electron."

Since we deal mostly with electrons in electronics, 1 amp represents the effect of 6,240,000,000,000,000,000 electrons flowing past a point per second. Thus, since current is already defined as something flowing, to say "current flow" would be to say "..... flowing flow" which is incorrect because it is redundant.

Now let's say we have a 10K resistor and 2 milliamps of current. The voltage across the resistor will be:

V = 10,000 * .002 = 20 volts

We can use the above equation to generate an equation for each of the three variables. It requires remembering just two things:
1. It's ok to do something to one side of an equation as long as the same thing is done to the other side. The two sides will remain equal.
2. Anything divided by itself is equal to 1.

Start with the original equation:
V = I * R
Now divide both sides by R. Since R/R = 1, the right side now becomes I * 1 which is simply I, giving us V/R = I. If we switch sides and put the I on the left we end up with:
I = V/R

Again, start with the original equation:
V = I * R
Now divide both sides by I. Since I/I = 1, the right side now becomes R * 1 which is simply R, giving us V/I = R. If we switch sides and put the R on the left we end up with:
R = V/I

Thus, all three equations are:
V = I * R
I = V/R
R = V/I

One way to remember the three equations is to say, "The Vulture looks down and sees the Iguana and the Rabbit side by side (V = I * R), the Iguana sees the Vulture over the Rabbit (I = V/R) and the Rabbit sees the Vulture over the Iguana (R = V/I)."

 

A very common circuit is a voltage divider. It looks like the following:

Two resistors connected end-to-end are said to be connected in series. The total resistance is simply the sum of the two. In this case, it would be 22000 + 33 = 22033 ohms. If 1 volt is applied to the open end of the 22K resistor, the current through the whole circuit would be
I = V/R = 1/22033 or .00004538646576 amps, or about .05 milliamps.

The voltage across the 33 ohm resistor is then
V = I * R = .00004538646576 * 33 = .00149775337 volts, or about 1.5 millivolts (1/1000 volt).

Resistors are also often connected in parallel , such as below:


The value of the above parallel network is:
R = 1/(1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3)
The equation is good for any number of resistors.

Capacitors are devices which have metal plates separated by an insulator. They are used to temporarily store an electrical charge. Their symbol reflects their construction:

The unit of capacitance is the Farad, but it's so large that the microfarad is used in practice. Microfarad means millionths of a Farad. It's often abbreviated mf, MF or some variation, although the correct abbreviation is µF. A value without a designator is assumed to be in microfarads. For example, in the schematic you will see several capacitors simply designated .1. They are actually .1µF capacitors.

Some capacitors must have their leads connected to the positive or negative side of a circuit. They are polarized capacitors. When that is the case, one side will be shown with a + sign where the positive side must be, or a - sign where the negative side must be, or both.

It's also very common to see picofarads abbreviated pf in some schematics. A picofarad is 10-12 Farad, and is sometimes called a micromicrofarad.

A diode permits the flow of charge in only one direction. Its symbol reflects this characteristic, but with a slight problem:

Anode  Cathode

The slight problem comes from the fact that flow of charge, at least in a wire, is from where there are a greater number of electrons to where there are fewer. Electrons are negatively charged. Thus, electrical flow of charge is from negative to positive in a wire. The problem with the symbol is that the cathode, not the anode, is the negative side. Electrical flow of charge is from the cathode to the anode, against the direction of the arrow.

Integrated Circuits contain many individual components. They, in turn, usually form several functional blocks. For example, the following is a pinout for the 74LS08 Quad 2 Input AND gate, along with its truth table. VCC is the 5 volt supply, and GND is ground. Sometimes ground is shown as VSS. The gate inputs are the As and Bs, and the outputs are the Ys. Thus, the inputs to gate 1 are 1A and 1B, and the output is 1Y. You will see variations on these conventions, but they hold true in many cases.


An Operational Amplifier also contains many individual components, but is not a digital circuit. It looks a little like a buffer, but has 2 inputs:



You can find a more detailed treatment of operational amplifiers at Professor Douglas M. Gingrich's site at The University of Alberta. For a simplified coverage of the subject, look at the circuit below.



An Op-Amp has many important characteristics. One of them is that the above circuit, called an inverting amplifier, attempts to prevent any current through the inverting input. In this circuit, R1 connects to the inverting input. R2 also connects to the inverting input, with its other end connected to the output. R2 is called the feedback resistor. Let's attempt to drive a current through the inverting input by placing 1V on the unconnected end of R1 and assume that the right end has 0 volts on it. The current will be
I = V/R = 1/1K = 1ma

The output will try to counter this by driving a current of the opposite polarity through the feedback resistor into the inverting input. The required voltage to do that will be
V = -(I * R) = -(1ma * 10K) = -10V.

Thus, we get a voltage to current conversion, a current to voltage conversion, a polarity inversion and, most importantly, amplification. Amplification or gain is commonly labeled G. In the case of the inverting amplifier,
G = -(Feedback Resistor / Input Resistor)
In this case, it's G = -(R2/R1)

Since the feedback cancels out the input, there is no voltage at the inverting input. It is said to be at virtual ground .

Now look at the circuit below from the schematic you will see in the hardware section.



The gain is a little over -1000 in order to provide enough amplification for the low output of a microphone. The signal is not only amplified but inverted because we are going into the inverting input. The inversion however, is not quite the same as it is in a digital device. Here, we are talking about an audio analog signal that, once transformed into an electrical signal by the microphone, moves much more smoothly and continuously in the negative and positive voltage directions. Inversion here means that when the input moves in the positive direction, the output moves in the negative direction. When the input goes toward negative, the output goes toward positive. C1 prevents DC voltages from even getting into the circuit. This blocking action will be discussed in a future section.

The non-inverting side is designated by the +. It is there that a positive offset voltage is applied. If R1 were not connected to C1 but rather to ground, the non-inverting side would exhibit a gain of (R2/R1)+1 for the bias voltage. With C1 however, there is no DC gain for the non-inverting side, and AC is shorted to ground by C2. The result is a gain of 1 on the non-inverting side for DC voltages. The purpose of the bias circuit will be covered in the next section.

How do you test a transistor using cathode ray oscilloscope?

It's possible to test the transistor using Cathode Ray Oscilloscope (CRO)

CRO provides a function called "Component Testing". Just connect the transistor terminals between two pins provided by this function and you can observe the patterns on the CRO screen. Normally, in case of transistor, The operation is divided in few parts.

01. Observe the pattern for CB configuration.
---- For this, connect the terminals from CRO between this Collector and Base terminals and you can observe the pattern shown by CRO.

Same procedure should continue for CE & BE configuration so as to test the transistor.

Component Level Motherboard Repair (Not replacement)

1) How do you diagnose the exact component failure?


Obviously, a burn mark is a dead give away, but what if there are no visual signs? Do you poke around with a multi-meter? With what voltage settings and how do you know what to look for?

2) Is it usually a bad capacitor?
badcaps seems to think so. What about a bad connection?

3) How do you perform the component level repair?
So you've found the bad capacitor or component, can you really solder a new one on without hurting the components around them? What's a good soldering iron for under $100?

Answers to your questions

Diagnose problem:
This is the hardest part in notebook repair. Basically, we measure voltages on motherboard and there are few power supply range from 1V to 12V on the motherboard. For example, north bridge needs 1.05V, 1.2V, 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V, depends on model of north bridge.

We also measure all sort of signals, such as PCIRST, CPURST, CLK. We measure the resistances of each AD line from north bridge to CPU/RAM.

We watch the current changing patterns to get rough idea where is the problem.

There are some simple steps to follow when checking a notbook motherboard:

1. make sure main system powers are ready, that is 3V and 5V.
2. switching circuit is ok, which involes IO/Keyboard controler, south bridge
3. power sequence is ok, which you can see the current jump up and down for few times.
4. all the necessary signals are not missing.
About Bad Cap
It happens but only about 10% in those motherboards need to repair, and it is the easiest fault to repair not matter if the cap was burnt or not.
Loose connection
Mostly happen on VGA chips, south birdges and the places close to CPU. Hard to troubleshoot and need lot experiences.

How to repair?
You need specialised tools. I have DC power supply which can display current change and set to different voltage and current output. You need Really nice soldering station, SMD rework station, BGA rework station, etc. I also have more than thousand schematic diagrams, all together about 10GB and you could not find anywhere in the net.

I have seen the video in youTub teach people how to fix VGA problem, and I guess you only have 30% chance if you follow it. My BGA rework station tutorial can perform up to 95% successful rate.
Troubleshooting Dead HP G6000 Motherboard

Things that are likely worth solving:
Bad capacitors. Decently common and the parts only cost a few cents.

Most of the ICs on board... 4-20 pin jobbies such as the power ic do fail and are swappable for less than a buck or so

Blown fuses. Easy to diagnose easy to replace. This is a definite.

Any and all damaged jacks. Power and audio being the most commonly broken.

Resistors. easy to find easy to replace. cost is in pennies

Transistors and diodes can be more problematic to diagnose and fix but they too are cheap and swappable with just a soldering iron.

Obviously you can swap cpus so you should be able to diagnose that as well.

Case Study 1

"Machine: HP G6000(same mainboard as V6000)

Problem: Laptop will not power up, completely dead

Description: The machine has been water damaged. It does not have system standby power, which are 3V and 5V.

Finding The Fault:

Check Max8724(the battery charging chip) first, because to make system has standby power this chip must work correctly. This is a 28 pin chip, we only need to test 1, 2, 4, 8, 10, 11 pin. They are VIN(main power for chip), LDO(provide 3.3V for chip itself in order to set REF voltage, also provide signal to drive 2 MOS to charge battery), REF(set reference voltage of the chip), SHDN#(enable/disable chip, a switch), ACIN(indicate the power supply has plugged in), ACOK#(power adaptor ok with mainboard).

Everything ok except 10 pin, ACIN is 0V. This is incorrect, mainboard doesnt detect there is an adaptor! Trace it backward and find it is very simple mainboard use 2 resistors to pull the input voltage(19V, directly from dc socket) down to about 4V, so test the first resistor and find it opened. Change it and 3V/5V power come up and mainboard be able to switch on.

Then the trouble start when I try to charge the battery. The charging current never go beyond 0.15A and after 10 seconds the charging light start to flashing. Also cant switch on from battery. First, change Max8724, still same problem. Next check all the resistors around max8724 and change it if it has any sign of watering, still no good. Then change KB3926(EC/KBC, chip monitors the statue of battery), still same.

Decide to check MBDATA and MBCLCK, 2 signals that send battery information from battery to KB3926 before I give up. I find the MBDATA is short!

Finally, find there are 2 pins stick together on CN10(the connector of multimedia switch board). Fix it and it start to charging battery. Switch on with power adaptor, ok. Remove the power adaptor once switch on, battery keep the mainboard running, ok. But still cant switch on from battery once remove the power adaptor. Think, think, do I miss something here or there? Oh, the CMOS battery not installed, put the CMOS battery back and everything work perfectly. The battery part of troubleshooting takes me about 3 hours.

Remember, system may not run if you dont have CMOS battery or CMOS battery is low for some AMD cpu mainboard.



Case Study 2

"Machine: Acer 4600

Problem: Laptop will not power up

Discription: The machine wont turn on when customer bring in.

1. plug in our power supply and it shows short circuit on board, the current jump to the 5A, which is the limit of my power supply.

2. take off the mobo, drop the voltge of power supply to 5v, limit current to about 1A, plug in again and find a mos very hot.

3. replace this mos, now the short circuit fixed.

4. turn on, the current goes up to 0.3A and stopped, it should go up to 1A during booting.

5. touch cpu, not hot, no power to cpu.

6. check the cpu pwm, which is max1907a. all conditions to make it work are present, but still no power output. the ref voltege is 0. so most likely this chip gone.

7. I replace the chip and everything work fine.

For lots of unknow brand laptops, sometimes very hard to find drivers. I don't know how many people know there is a trick to install a similar driver.
Machine: TPG (can't see the model clearly)

Could not find the driver, TPG web site only point to Asus web site and doesn't give which model it clone from Asus. We can't find vga driver.

We use Everest to check what vga chip it use and find it is ATI IGP 320M U1. Download few from different web sites, all of them just give a message said could not find hardware it supports.

Finally, download a driver from fujitsu web site for the lifebook S2020(same vga chip and south bridge chip as TPG's). But still give the error message said no support hardware find.

Every device has a Device Instance ID, and windows will compare this ID with driver's INF. It will install the driver if it find a match ID and match SubSys, otherwise will give an error message.

We check the driver for S2020, find the string "PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_4336&SUBSYS_118110CF" in one of the INF file. We also find the Device ID on our machine is "PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_4336&SUBSYS_2029161F&REV_00". Device ID is matched but just into different sub system. Replace the string in S2020's INF with our Device ID string, driver is installed correctly and no error message.

Dell inspiron 6400 with a power problem.

Laptop can't run nor charge the battery on adapter, but on battery it's run.

This is typical protection circuit problem. check the 2 mosfet just after power socket

Charging problem
C700's charging chip is 39A126, DV6000/9000's charging chip is max8724 or max8725. Check the working conditions of those chips. such as VIN, ACIN, ACOK, LDO, REF, SHDN.

Charging problem is second hardest problem on notebook repairing, the first one is signal level everything looks ok but just no display.

usb no power
The following solution only apply that usb no power, if the usb device get power but can't be detected or can't be recognised by system, that indicates south bridge problem.

To get power for usb is very simple. use multimeter to find out which usb pin is ground, the pin on the other side will be the power. for example say pin 4 is ground so pin 1 will be the power.

connect power pin to 5v you can find on motherboard, usually a big inductor(becareful, when you measure the voltage, put battery in as well, some mobo the inductor for charging circut give you 5v if you don't put battery in but jump to battery voltage once you put in the battery, such high voltage will burn your usb devices). connect it on the different side of inductor that mosfet connect to(or should I say power out side?) so you can get smooth waveform, don't connect to the same side of mosfet(this is power in side).

Dark image on the screen , just very hard to see, a torch will show it is there though).
When we fix such problem, usually we do the following:
1. find an known good lamp or screen, plug into inverter see if its light up. if it lights up so you need to change your screen's lump.

2. if it not light up, do following:

a. check power(either 5V or 19V), enable signal(3V), brightness control(3V) are presented. (all testing by done with adaptor plug in).

b. if all those presented, then change inverter otherwise

c. need to find out which wire is power, which is enable, which is brightness people find hard in here because they don't know how to find out which is which.

Power always connect to fuse (also need to check fuse is ok). for the other two, you need to check inverter pwm's datasheet to make decision. Just start from pwm's EN and Brightness pin, trace back to connector. After you find out, make sure all these wires has normal resistance to ground, otherwise you have to cut off the wire that abnormal. Then try to find exact voltage from mobo and connect to inverter, by doing this you are not really fix the problem but bypass it. It is a easy to work around it rather than fix problem.

Q. The first step to troubleshooting is monitor the current change. usually, current reading can tell what was wrong and quite accurate. You frequently mention monitoring the current change to pinpoint the area of failure. Can you please describe this troubleshooting technique in more detail with some guidelines and numbers to look for?

A. To understand why current changing, you may need to know the basic powering states of notebook which is called ACPI standard S0 to S5.



S0 is full runing state, S5 is state that after you swith off laptop but with either power or battery presented. out off topic here, the S5 is the state after you shut down computer not the state you just plug in the power. Power button is for wake up computer from S5 and enter into S3. In ACPI standard, to switch on computers you need a signal "RSMRST". It explains why some laptops auto switch on if there is no CMOS battery, because its EC send RSMRST when power plug in. But you need push power button to switch on laptop if there is CMOS battery, because laptop remembers it is in S5 state.



Powering up a laptop can be divided into few parts, first check south bridge's gpio defination, check communcation between bios and south bridge, check system ram, power cpu, power up vga. so you can see the current goes up and down. step by step it reaches to full power.



Current changing monitor is just give you rough idea, sometimes not so accurate. let's see 2 examples:

1. a hp 530, power up but stay on 0.68A. it should go down a bit after 0.68A, and up again. The faulty mobo current change is 0.02 0.3 -0.68. After we see this current, we know it may have problem on SB or may be on NB but most likely is SB.

I check LPC 0 to LPC 3, no signal find. it may have problem on SB or BIOS. So I flash the BIOS before I do anything on SB. It was fixed after I reflash BIOS.

2. DV9000. Normal mobo: 0.01 0.3 -0.9 1.1 0.9 1.2 -1.45 then display. we find faulty mobo 0.01-0.3-0.9-1.1-0.9, by checking DMI Link we find there is one or two pulses. So we have an idea that it already pass memory checking, the next stage is VGA checking and active VGA output. In here, if it stop in 1.1 it most likely NB or SB problem, but if it stop in 0.9 or after, it may be the problem of VGA.

Current changing gives you an idea about where is the fault but not 100% accurate. People ask me what fault by just give me the current reading and I always say you need to give me the changing states, how many jumps that current made.

Machine will run on charger with battery removed instal the battery and it will only run on the battery not the charger
Looks like discharging has problem. When discharging mosfet has problem, or the Gate voltage not correct, the 18V of main power will directly go to battery.

The current will be very large when you have short discharging mosfet, if you plug charger in and have battery installed at same time. Laptop will detect this abnormal current and refuse to start up. Remove either one, machine can start up.

How to diagnose motherboards on a component level. What tools needed?
I find it is very hard to explain this. actually, it is very simple and can be described in two words: current and singal. read the current change during booting tells you where the machine stopped. check the singals on the different part of motherboard tells what is wrong or what is missing.

Tools are: smd rework station, bga rework station, power supply has current meter. all the rest tools you can find in any radio tv repair shop, of course all the datasheets for the components, especially the schematic diagram, you will find it much difficult without it.

What are common faults on mainboards? Do certain components fail?
Is there a trend as to which parts fail quite often?
Different maker/model has different common fault. Toshiba S1 is vga chip, and can't be repaired(well, almost can't be repaired because the pcb quality is not very good so successful rate is very low).

HP DV2000, 6000, 9000, compaq v3000, v6000, dell 1210, all those use nvidia chips have problem on vga chip or north bridge. easy to repair but have to make fan keep spinning after repaired, otherwise will break down in 1 or 2 week again.

hp nx5000, cpu pwm chip dry joint. acer 290, cpu pwm dry joint. hp dv1000, compaq m2000 protection circuit easy to blow up. ibm t40 vga dry joint problem.

These are just few of them. every machine has its own common fault. but dry joint is the common problem for all machines.

How to replace the graphics card on a dell 1420, the gfx card is a nvidia 8400gs
To fix such machine, first you have to do bga reworking on the chip, then connect fan to usb power to make it spin faster and non stop. also need to cut off fan controling wire.

could short on PQ8 make gate voltage high on both mosfets?
what do i need to check to find out why voltage is 19.36v.at gate
i have tested PQ8 and PQ9.results are as follows. PQ8 is AO4407. pin 1,2,3 is 19.37v. pin 5,6,7,8 is 19.36v. pin 4 gate is 19.37v.

PQ9 is AO4407. pin 1,2,3 is 19.37v. pin 5,6,7,8 is 11-12.00v. pin 4 is 19.37v.

i have set meter on diode mode and put positive on pin 2-3 and negative on 6-7 the meter beeps and shows resistance of 0.6 ohms,then i reversed the positive negative ,meter beeps again shows resistance of 0.6.it beeps both ways. this is PQ8.

i have done same as above with PQ9 and it shows resistance of 25kohm both ways.

Solution GATE PQ8 PQ9 Should be coneccted in the same line (trace) , if PQ8 is burn please check also PQ19 , another ao4407 are conected in the same DRAIN SOURCE , you need to remove from mobo and test in continuity or 200 Ohms scale , if you see 0 10 Ohms betwen drain source is burn sure , check then PQ19 . You need 19v at PQ9 pin 5,6,7,8 but if PQ8 is burn not work . PU4 ISL6251 is the charger IC.

Toshiba sattelite P200-1JV laptop.it runs on battery without any problem.
it does not run with a/c. does not charge battery.

Solution first check all mobo marks to found mobo model and if you can found the schematic , then you need to found one mosfet 8 pin sop8 that is conected directly to DC JACK , and then found the next mosfet conected with the first mosfet , when you conect AC you need this 2 mosfet open , 19volts at DRAIN SOURCE , and about 8-10volts at GATE to open , usually is controled by the IC charger circuit , maybe have a short in AC circuit side or IC charger not recognize the adaptar and no open mosfets .

Having problems whit dell xps M1530
Dont do nothing when press power button , ACAV_IN is present at Q5 Q6 (3.2V) i have DCBATOUT but 3v and 5v not present , i check DCBATOUT for U69 TPS51120 and is OK , then check VREG3 VREG5 and also work fine , but i dont have 3V/5V_EN to activate outputs , Q17 is not in mobo only pads , D16 have 0.06v at 3V/5V_EN and 3.3v at PURE_HW_SHUTDOWN# , maybe need S5_ENABLE to activate 3v and 5v ? what you think about the next step to check ? maybe some signals in KBC WPC8763L .

Solution At the moment the TPS51120 is working , use power supply to put 2.5V in D16 3V/5V_EN and the 3V 5V outputs go enable . find why S5_ENABLE and 3V/5V_EN are low .

My D505 may power on boot OK or may have following condition.
a)LED flash

b)"da.da.da....." sound.

Solution If you know the bios manufacturer, the beep code will tell you where the failure is.
So the number of beeps and the duration of each beep is a specific code from the bios to let you know what it couldn't start like video, memory, cpu etc.
The north bridge dry joint, it is common fault of this model. BGA reworking on north bridge, and replace the north bridge if bga reworking doesn't work.

It's a Toshiba Satellite A205-SP4077, Core 2 Duo. While replacing cracked LCD tried several panels with no success.
Then noticed LVDS RX2- signal from motherboard is missing.

Solution The north bridge dry joint, it is common fault of this model. BGA reworking on north bridge, and replace the north bridge if bga reworking doesn't work.

A friend has an Acer, one of the alphabetic keytops has come off. It doesn't appear to be broken, but I'm having trouble clipping it back on. It's a weird double hinge, something like a Thinkpad, which I've fixed before (easily). Any insight into mechanical aspects of keyboards?
Solution First, put the retainer(or what you said "hinge") onto the keyboard base, then put the key on the top, slightly press down and lock the key on the retainer.

I currently have a HP DV6000 sitting in front of me with several rows of black/grey lines over the screen. Is it worth trying to fix yourself or should I just send it in for a warranty repair
Solution Send for warranty if it is still in warranty. To complete solve this problem, you need to replace Nvidia chip which was made after 30th week of 08.

A friend opened up his notebook to give it a clean but when he put it back together the bios is not finding the hard drive Solution Make sure you plug hard disk firmly.

It could be the problem of south bridge, the south bridge controls hdd. I have seen many times that clean cpu fan and end up with non working laptop.

I have a problem with a toshiba tecra M9 I bought the notebook on ebay. The seller said it was dropped, worked for a few days and then died.
Solution The common problem of this model is vga chip dry joint. check the hdd light flashing or not, it should be the vga if it flashes.

Note: The hardest repair laptop is dropped one, even harder than watering. The south bridge, north bridge and vga chip all could be dry joint. To fix such machine, I always resolder those big chips, sometimes it works and sometimes it is not. There is no good way to fix such machines, just simply take the chance.

Laptop has crashed and when you boot, the screen is split so there are 2 identicle screens vertically (1 above the other). It wont boot normally or last good config but will boot safely with networking but if it boots like this, wouldnt that suggest a hardware/bios issue.

Do you think if I heat up the VGA chip (or SB or NB) then the solder will melt and get fixed?

If so, what should I use to heat it up?
Solution I am not suggest you do that unless you have bga rework station. The temperature control must be very strickly. But if you want to take the chance, I suggest you use 2 hot air guns, one from top, one from buttom. Set the top temperature to 350, set the buttom to 300 and blow it about 10 min.

In the case you want to go ahead with such project. you must firmly fix both air guns and motherboard, not let them move when you blow the hot air. Use a little stick to touch the capacitors or resistors around the big chips, keep blowing about 5 min when the solder on small components reflowed. Don't forget to apply flux between big chips and pcb board. don't set buttom temperature too high, otherwise the components on the buttom may fall off. Good luck.

To be honest with you, I have less than 10% successful rate for dropped machines even I have a bga rework station. The watering boards I have more than 70% successful rate.

I have an issues with my girlfriend's old Acer Travelmate 3260 (bought 2007), the power input pin has broken and it no longer gets any power to the system. This gradually happened over time with it getting looser and not charging properly.
Do you have the schematic for this model and also do you have instruction on how to replace the power socket, plus where to buy the component from?

Solution You don't really need schematic for such repair job. The DC jack you can find on ebay, I think someone in uk sell all type of jack. you also can attach a cable if you couldn't find such jack, and such connector can be easily found in online.

Dual screen problems
Solution First, I don't think it is a good idea to use dual screens on laptop, you put extra loading onto the vga chip.

Second, the external monitor flicking means vga card try to setup the display mode and resolution on the monitor. It will be stable once it set the display mode and resolution.

Vga overheating
Solution There is overload to vga chip.

I still remember that back about 3 years ago I saw people modified their IBM Thinkpad, they use QXGA(resolution is 2048x1536) to replace original sxga(1400x900). The result of doing this is vga chip get overheat and kill machine fast, usually not over one year. But for the people can do such modify is no problem to fix their motherboard resolder the vga chip, or replace vga chip.

The more calculation of vga chip carried, the more heat it generated. Think about how many calculation jobs that vga chip has to do in your situation, not only the internal lcd, but also the external lcd. Much more than those people change lcd from sxga to qxga.

DV6000 laptop power switch problem
Solution The power switch from DV9000 is same as DV6000. There is other way to switch on your machine and you will know if is ribbon cable problem or m/b problem. It is handy if you have a multimeter. The switches of most laptop ( include dv6000) are just pull a voltage to the ground and send a signal to EC (most people call it keyboard controller). So check your ribbon cable connector on the motherboard, on the 3rd pin( can't remember from left or right, but it doesn't matter you can try both) it should have 3.3V, short this pin to the ground and your machine should power up. Don't worry you wouldn't damage anything even you short every pin on the connector to the ground.

Q. I have a Gateway P-6825 Laptop that has no backlight on LCD. I have bought 2 inverters 2 LCD cables I have tons of screens no matter what I get no backlight. It works perfect on external monitor and you can see it come on the LCD but the screen will not light up.
Also what is the normal input power to the inverter as well.

A. Inverter board input power sometimes is Vin or B+, close to AC adapter voltage. You may check if is there a fuse in the LCD connector path. I'd suggest you search for the inverter IC datasheet. For inverters using OZ960 there is an input called ENA which must be 3.3V for enable inverter and another called DIM which is 3V for full brightness. Hope this helps.

Q.I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300, just tried to use the dvd rom and it's not working, it won't acknowledge any dvd's, It won't even open, last time I used the dvd rom several months ago everything worked fine and the notebook has not been moved,

A. If the dvd drive it's ok (u should test it in another laptop), it's for sure a chipset problem (the chip that controlls the drive also, it's the intel ICH8M the U33A on the schematic/board).I will exclude a connection port problem if the laptop hasn't fallen or something like that.If drive is ok, try a reflow of that chip, should solve your problem.

Q.Is a Toshiba Satellite L355-D-S7901, motherboard 6050A2175001-MB-A02, after POST starts to beep continously like a stuck key. I've tried even with bare motherboard (no keyboard connected). Will appreciate any idea.

A. check capcitors that keyboard connected, or check keyboard controller.

How to check sony protection circuits

SONY VGN-NS11S MBX-195 M790 Rev 1.1 1P-0087J04-8011 PCG-7141M ,

Sony's protection circuits are hard to troubleshoot. It is involed too many components. About mbx-165 protection circuits:

1. Power pass PF1 becomes DC_IN, at this point, Max1909 start to work. ACIN, DCIN high, LDO 5V, REF 2V(must have, can't remember exactly voltage). Max1909_PDS low to drive PQ25 (don't know exactly voltage, but lower than DC_IN).

2. PQ25 convert DC_IN to DC_IN_MOS. Here comes the hardest to troubleshoot of sony protection circuit.

PQ26's gate must be low and it was a signal call DC_IN_G1. So where this DC_IN_G1 from? In normal situation, it max1909_pds through a resistor. Now, you have 19V of this signal that is abnormal.

we check it by few steps:

1. check pc3, is it short?

2. ac_off_3# is high? if it is high, check check PQ31, PQ20, PR116, PR119, PR120.

3. ac_off_3# is low? check the ac_off_3# signal, many components involved: DC_IN part from PD2 to AC_OFF_3#. From input of PU13 (2nd pin, max1909_LDO) to PQ24A, PQ59, PQ24B.

I hate sony's protection circuit, too many troubles. Last time I fix one of such problem on sony mobo is PD2 leaking, spend me almost 5-6 hours. And solution of it? Just remove the PD2, which means it does not matter if there is PD2 or not the mobo still working. Extra protection means extra troubles and faults.

Q. uSb power problem

A. The following solution only apply that usb no power, if the usb device get power but can't be detected or can't be recognised by system, that indicates south bridge problem.

To get power for usb is very simple. use multimeter to find out which usb pin is ground, the pin on the other side will be the power. for example say pin 4 is ground so pin 1 will be the power.

connect power pin to 5v you can find on motherboard, usually a big inductor(be careful, when you measure the voltage, put battery in as well, some mobo the inductor for charging circut give you 5v if you don't put battery in but jump to battery voltage once you put in the battery, such high voltage will burn your usb devices). connect it on the different side of inductor that mosfet connect to(or should I say power out side?) so you can get smooth waveform, don't connect to the same side of mosfet(this is power in side).

Q. My Lenovo SL400 screen went dark (image there, just very hard to see, a torch will show it is there though).

A. When we fix such problem, usually we do the following:

1. find an known good lamp or screen, plug into inverter see if its light up. if it lights up so you need to change your screen's lamp.

2. if it not light up, do following:

a. check power(either 5V or 19V), enable signal(3V), brightness control(3V) are presented. (all testing be done with adaptar plug in).

b. if all those presented, then change inverter otherwise
c. need to find out which wire is power, which is enable, which is brightness. people find hard in here because they don't know how to find out which is which.

Power always connect to fuse (also need to check fuse is ok). for the other two, you need to check inverter pwm's datasheet to make decision. Just start from pwm's EN and Brightness pin, trace back to connector. After you find out, make sure all these wires has normal resistance to ground, otherwise you have to cut off the wire that abnormal. Then try to find exact voltage from mobo and connect to inverter, by doing this you are not really fix the problem but bypass it. It is a easy to work around it rather than fix problem.

Q.
1. Is there a popular model of power supply that you can recommend?

2. Do you use mini-grabbers to attach power supply to laptop or do you have a collection of common dc plugs?

3. How do you use with Dell laptops that have a third wire to identify the power supply?

A.
I just burn one power supply today, this is 4th one I have burnt in last 3 years. Lucky it was not connected to any laptop when it was burnt. It's output voltage was jump from 19V to 50V, at this voltage all laptop's power circuits will burn throuhg, I have 3 laptops burnt before.

There is no popular model as I know, but at least 5A/30V. Get a industrial grade if it possible, becuase non-industrial grade power supply can't even run a laptop for more than one hour, or you face the risk to burn your power supply in turn it will burn the laptop. It is sufficent for repairing job but not enough for machine testing. It must have MA reading, because sometimes the reading is less than 0.01A.

I have all the collection of DC plugs, made from faulty chargers.

Ignor the 3rd pin of dell charger, it is only for PS_ID, only use for charging battery. Without this PS_ID machine still run but just can't charge. But some old dell like 5150 will not work our power supply, lucky we don't have any such machines to fix.

Q.
1. Is there a "generic" current profile for laptops or does each laptop have it's own unique current profile?

2. In your example for DV9000, you say "0.01 0.3 -0.9 1.1 0.9 1.2 -1.45 then display" Can you explain what happens at each current change state?

3. Do you need a power supply that logs the current or does it change slow enough to visually monitor the different current states?

4. If a laptop gets power but no video, how do you isolate the failure between northbridge,southbridge,SIO,bios?

A.
1. Every laptop has its unique current profile. But although the reading is different, the up and down (jumping) are similiar.

2. The dv9000's current reading may not very accurate, I suggest you first move the ram away and see how the current changing, then put back the ram and check it again.

3. not very fast, your eyes can catch the changes.

4. this is a big question, may need a full text book to explain it. The simple answer for this question: a. current reading, b. LPC wave, c.SMB wave. we have explain the current reading before. LPC waves are measured on EC, if you can't find LPC wave, that means no communication between EC and SB, PLTRST present or not, if is not then SB problem, etc. SMB waves are measured on ram slot, communication between ram and northbridge, H_RESET present or not, if it is not then NB. There are also so many signals need to check, can't remember what are them now.

I think the hardest fault for beginner is why the laptop not power up, not the faults after it powers up.

lets see the example how we troubleshoot a non-powering machine,:

Model:acer 5737

EC: kbc926



sympton: can't power up

checked: 3ALW, 5ALW presented



1. check the power button has power or not, press it to see if pull down the voltage.

2. check kbc926's 32 pin, which is on/off see the signal received.

3. EC_VCCA is high?

4. check EC_RSMRST is high?

5. LID_SW# is high?

6. ACIN is high?

7. EC_CRY is correct?(32.76Khz)

8. South bridge crystal correct( which is X4, also 32.76KHz)

9. PBTN_OUT pull low when you press power button?

if all above have no problem, consider the south bridge fault. for this machine, there is a single bridge south bridge/north bridge/vga combined. North bridge's functions are mostly taken over by CPU.



Q.
This laptop will run on ac charger it wilL NOT run on full charged battery.



A.
This is what we called protection circuit fault.

Looks like discharging has problem. When discharging mosfet has problem, or the Gate voltage not correct, the 18V of main power will directly go to battery.

The current will be very large when you have short discharging mosfet, if you plug charger in and have battery installed at sametime. Laptop will detect this abnormal current and refuse to start up. Remove either one, machine can start up.

Please Note:
The first step to troubleshooting is monitor the current change. usually, current reading can tell what was wrong and quite accurate.

CPU faulty is rarely happened. I only see no more than 5 to 8 cpu faulty during 10 years.

CPU kills motherboard happen on me once, and that motherboard in turn to kill another good CPU, and this is p3 cpu.

Don't worry about cpu, 99% chance it is good.

Try to do this, find a current meter, cut off the wire of power adaptor, connect current meter to the wire. The meter must be able to read at least 0.01A.

Component Level Motherboard Repair (Not replacement)



1) How do you diagnose the exact component failure?
Obviously, a burn mark is a dead give away, but what if there are no visual signs? Do you poke around with a multi-meter? With what voltage settings and how do you know what to look for?

2) Is it usually a bad capacitor?
badcaps seems to think so. What about a bad connection?

3) How do you perform the component level repair?
So you've found the bad capacitor or component, can you really solder a new one on without hurting the components around them? What's a good soldering iron for under Rs.200? 

Answers to your questions

Diagnose problem:
This is the hardest part in notebook repair. Basically, we measure voltages on motherboard and there are few power supply range from 1V to 12V on the motherboard. For example, north bridge needs 1.05V, 1.2V, 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V, depends on model of north bridge. We also measure all sort of signals, such as PCIRST, CPURST, CLK. We measure the resistances of each AD line from north bridge to CPU/RAM.

We watch the current changing patterns to get rough idea where is the problem. There are some simple steps to follow when checking a notbook motherboard:

1. make sure main system powers are ready, that is 3V and 5V.
2. switching circuit is ok, which involes IO/Keyboard controler, south bridge
3. power sequence is ok, which you can see the current jump up and down for few times.
4. all the necessary signals are not missing.


About Bad Cap
It happens but only about 10% in those motherboards need to repair, and it is the easiest fault to repair not matter if the cap was burnt or not.
Loose connection
Mostly happen on VGA chips, south birdges and the places close to CPU. Hard to troubleshoot and need lot experiences.

How to repair?
You need specialised tools. I have DC power supply which can display current change and set to different voltage and current output. You need Really nice soldering station, SMD rework station, BGA rework station, etc. I also have schematic diagrams, all together about 700MB 

I have seen the video in youTub teach people how to fix VGA problem, and I guess you only have 30% chance if you follow it. My BGA rework station tutorial can perform up to 95% successful rate.

Troubleshooting Dead HP G6000 Motherboard



Things that are likely worth solving:

Bad capacitors. Decently common and the parts only cost a few cents.

Most of the ICs on board... 4-20 pin jobbies such as the power ic do fail and are swappable for less than a buck or so

Blown fuses. Easy to diagnose easy to replace. This is a definite.

Any and all damaged jacks. Power and audio being the most commonly broken.

Resistors. easy to find easy to replace. cost is in pennies

Transistors and diodes can be more problematic to diagnose and fix but they too are cheap and swappable with just a soldering iron.

Obviously you can swap cpus so you should be able to diagnose that as well.

Case Study 1

"Machine: HP G6000(same mainboard as V6000)

Problem: Laptop will not power up, completely dead

Discription: The machine has been water damaged. It does not have system standby power, which are 3V and 5V.

Finding The Fault:

Check Max8724(the battery charging chip) first, because to make system has standby power this chip must work correctly. This is a 28 pin chip, we only need to test 1, 2, 4, 8, 10, 11 pin. They are VIN(main power for chip), LDO(provide 3.3V for chip itself in order to set REF voltage, also provide signal to drive 2 MOS to charge battery), REF(set reference voltage of the chip), SHDN#(enable/disable chip, a switch), ACIN(indicate the power supply has plugged in), ACOK#(power adaptor ok with mainboard).

Everything ok except 10 pin, ACIN is 0V. This is incorrect, mainboard doesnt detect
