Re: need help with a gateway lp2407/fpd2484
Interesting. They combined PFC and SMPS controllers into a single package. A very busy single package.
I'd check the voltage at pins 15 and 20. Use pin 13 as the ground point.

Re: need help with a gateway lp2407/fpd2484
pin 15 is 10v pin 20 is -1.25
pin 12 is a 12v pulse with a 20 percent duty factorComment

Re: need help with a gateway lp2407/fpd2484
From the SG6902 spec sheet, it looks like once VDD (pin 15) hits 10V or less, the chip shuts down. 16V is required to turn the SG6902 on. VDD voltage is generally supplied by a tertiary winding on the main transformer, which feeds a diode and startup capacitor. Try checking the diode. If ok, then try replacing the startup cap. Spec sheet has it around 10uf, but it could be higher.Comment

Re: need help with a gateway lp2407/fpd2484
Thanks for the heads up PlainBill. I knew something was wrong when you said "bottom of page 3". On the page 3 I was looking at is a block diagram. It turns out there are two data sheets for this chip: the original written in 2007 by System General and the Fairchild one from 2009 I was looking at. The Fairchild datasheet is just an edited version of the SG datasheet. Of course, the Fairchild version left out the "provide start-up current for VDD", but it's probably mentioned somewhere else.Attached FilesLast edited by jetadm123; 02-16-2011, 09:17 PM.Comment

Re: need help with a gateway lp2407/fpd2484
I am a little bit confused is the 10volts a problem and is the reading on pin 20 ok ?Comment

Re: need help with a gateway lp2407/fpd2484
Looking at the datasheet for the IC, I can identify some of the components feeding pin 20, but I'm at a loss if the voltage you are seeing is correct. My gut reaction is it is not, but that raises the question - is it the cause or a symptom? Tentatively, I'm saying it's a symptom.
The voltage at pin 15 indicates there is a problem. Ordinarily it should be in the 15 - 20 volt range. Again, I have the same question - why is it low? And are the strange readings due to your desoldering with power on, or the original cause of the problem?
OK, I've got a plan of action. Looking at the circuit, pin 20 should never show a negative voltage. The circuit on the main board is not quite the same as the one in the datasheet. Near the bridge rectifier are two diodes, D858, D859. They are the ultimate source of the voltage at pin 20. Since their anodes are on opposite sides of the AC line, the voltage at their cathodes should never read less than 0 volts. Note that their cathodes are tied together, and they feed resistors R871, R872, R873, and R874. Further note capacitors C857 and C876.
1. Have you replaced C857 and C876? They are part of the startup supply for the controller, and fail without visible signs. The COULD have been responsible for the original failure.
2. With power off, check diodes D858 and D859. If one is bad it could explain the voltage readings.
3. Check resistors R871, R872, R873, and R874. If they are open it could cause problems.
Now, the SG6902SZ PFC / SMPS controller uses the same design to provide start-up power as the SG6841SZ SMPS controller. The SG6841SZ controller is notorious for failing with the same symptoms you are seeing. Given that Mouser has the SG6902SZ for under $2.00 (+ shipping), be prepared to order it AFTER completing step 4.
4. I notice 4 additional diodes in this area, plus I believe there are two more on the daughter board. With power off, check these diodes. Also, visually check the resistors for any sign of damage.

Re: need help with a gateway lp2407/fpd2484
I wont blame you if you give up on me it is almost impossible to trouble shoot when you are getting info from an idiot . I was using my scope for the readings . I rechecked using a dvm and pin 15 was 15 v and 20 was +2.5Comment

Re: need help with a gateway lp2407/fpd2484
It would be interesting to know if there is a drive signal to either of the power FETs.

Re: need help with a gateway lp2407/fpd2484
Got it. Referring to the picture of the bottom side of the power supply, T850 is just to the left of center (good position, politically); Q850 is above it. There are 5 pins for T850. From left to right, they appear to be (1) Hot ground, (2) unused, (3) the tertiary winding, (4) Drive (DANGER!!), and (5) DC input.
Check the DC voltage on pin 5, and see if there are pulses on pin 3. Also, continuing clockwise the pins are numbered 6-11 right to left. Check for pulses on pins 7 and 9-11.

by Dan JohnGreetings everyone,
I have a Gateway P5WS0/NV57H58u laptop (P5WEO LA-6901P REV:2.0). The client said the battery was not charging. Upon checking the laptop,
1) On pressing the power button, the (power button) light turns on and stays on.
2) There is no boot, or anything on the screen.
3) The fan starts and stops a few times, then it stops completely.
4) The light on the power button remains on.
5) Battery not charging (original issue).
The original problem was that the battery was not charging, but the laptop still worked. My belief...5 Photos -
