    Lenovo 530 Vcore : what is the maximum ripple?

    Hi

    I have a Lenovo 530 14ikb i5 8th gen motherboard and it fails to start Windows: it normally dies after I try to load Windows. Getting into bios screen works fine.

    Made some measurements and I suspect that there is to much ripple on the 2 Vcore coils.

    What is normally the maximum ripple allowed on say any of the power supplies? A few %??

    The ripple is on both Vcore as outlined in red in attached photos.

    Could be a bad driver?

    Cheers

    Ps i am using a 1:10 probe so ripple is about 150mV on a 0.75 or so DC voltage

      Lenovo S145 -15iwl vcore inductor warm.. looking with oscilloscope there is a spike.
      by Bartoloni
      Hi, i have a Lenovo S145 that after 20 seconds shutdown and restart (it's working correctly on thse 20 seconds)
      everything seems ok, but on Vcore inductor ( this is an i3 with just 1 switching power supply for CPU)

      there is an output to teh CPU with a spike.. seems that inductor can't handle the input...
      replaced the capacitor (330) and the inductor (R15) without any change
      any idea? very thank you!

      input of the inductor seems as usual... only strange thing is that the upper/lower voltages seems to be 21V (main power line is 19.3) ... but not sure this...

      Lenovo X240 - motherboard replacement for X250, no image.
      by andrhouseolly
      Friends. I beg you to help me in this situation.
      Lenovo X240 with a video problem. Native Intel drivers are not installed,
      after installation, a black screen. It works with the standard Microsoft driver.
      Understanding that there are problems with the video core,
      I ordered a motherboard from Lenovo X250.
      The laptop turns on, starts up, there is no image on the internal display.
      The image is output to the external monitor.
      I ordered another motherboard from Lenovo X250.
      The laptop turns on, starts up, there is no image on the internal display.
