Re: Sony mbx-247 need to remove battery to turn on (sometimes not)
This often means that you have a leaky mosfet onboard in the power path from the power adapter and the battery mosfet. That is, when powered by the power adapter, it has the priority and the battery mosfet should remain OFF but the battery should charge. If the adapter is removed, only the battery mosfet should be enabled to power the logic board.
Would you have a schematic for this unit? If yes, post it in the schematic forum and link it here. Do not post the schematic here.
1) Attach the known good and suitable power adapter (only) - remove the battery. This setup should power on the logic board everytime.
2) If the schematic is not available, review the DCin connector and locate the mosfets in this area + charger IC that is onboard. Post clear pics of this region so we can try to reverse engineer the logic board. -

Tanks for help-me. See the schematic.Attached FilesComment

Attach the power adapter. Remove the battery.
Meter in dc volts (30v or higher) scale.
Power on. Carefully measure the voltage to ground of each pin on mosfet pq32. This is the battery mosfet and it should only be on if the battery is the only power source.
Post your measurements.Comment

Have you looked into protection circuit? Sony is notorious for protection circuits.Comment

My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?
Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?
My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell... -
I bought a Vostro 3400 motherboard (LA-K033P) to upgrade over my damaged Inspiron 5593 (LA-J091P) board. Everything else is ok except for the battery. This battery I am using now is already a replacement one since I disposed of the bloated original one. Back in the Inspiron 5593 motherboard, the battery charges fine and is identified just fine. However, with the upgraded motherboard, suddenly the replacement battery is labeled as "Not a dell battery". When I borrow a similar battery from my colleague (which did not have replacements yet), it is identified and charges just fine.

The ISL88739 & ISL88739AHRZ are a highly versatile combo battery charger
configurable for operating as either a Hybrid Power Boost (HPB)
charger or a Narrow VDC (NVDC) charger, supporting 2-, 3-, or
4-cell batteries. Both configurations allow the battery to work with
the adapter together to supply the system load when it exceeds
the adapter capability, referred to as system Turbo mode. HPB
charger configuration reverse-boosts battery energy to the system
bus to help the adapter provide the system power in Turbo mode.
NVDC charger configuration...11-05-2024, 03:28 PM -
Hello guys, i need help with this problem, I have a NM-D041 mobo, it came with low impedance in 3v linear regulator rail, the cause was a damaged EC controller ITE8227e-192. I ordered a new one and replaced it. This laptop have a different chip for keyboard management and it8227e pins for programming ITE chips are not accesible through keyboard interface, I flashed it using i2c interface pins with vertyanov programmer because laptop was dead and SPI flash didn't have power (only 3v EC) so it couldn't access firmware stored in SPI memory. I read SPI and extracted it8227 firmware from original BIOS... -
Hi, so the old battery was getting error stated it's capacity is starting too get low and should be replaced, so the customer bought a new one and replaced it, but the new battery was also getting this notice that it's capacity is getting low and should be replaced, so i took the laptop for testing and the battery is charging at the terminal at 8.03V , the voltage of the battery is 7.7V, and drawing around 600mA when charger is put and the laptop is off...so that should be ok... but the bios system test doesn't recognize the battery and can't do the battery test and so is the hp battery manager,...
