    i’ve got a Asus laptop on my bench here with a shorted IC. I think its a Power regulator but i cannot find ANY info on this IC. I thought i’d try my luck here.

    Had a coil which was shorted to ground. Injected 1V and watched this ic get hot under thermal cam. Removed the IC and the short was gone. Now its .3 voltage drop which is good.

    So basically i need help identifying this IC.

    it looks like it says V+ BUB but i’m not sure. I cant find any info on google and theres no silk screen or schematic as far as i can see.

        What is nearby this regulator? What is the function of this power rail?

        Pour some IPA onto the top surface to enhance and magnify the topside smd markings. Take another pic with the IPA.

          Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74 power issue
          by GLISIT
          Hi all,

          TL;DR - this laptop is driving me nuts with the oddball power-related behaviors. Appreciate any insight you can provide!


          I'm experiencing a power issue on an Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74. Although I've worked with electronics and computers for decades, this is my first attempt at getting into motherboard-level component troubleshooting. Any help the community can provide is greatly appreciated!

          A few weeks ago I was using the laptop (on battery power) for a Zoom meeting. The battery was running very low (long meeting) but I wasn't worried about...

          Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?

          I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

          Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

          I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

          The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

          With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

          Assuming...

          Asus G634j Rog Strix SCAR Power rail shorted nothing hot on thermal camera.
          by abajor
          I haven't been able to find a schematic or board view for one of these out in the wild. I had one come in with a no charge/no boot issue.

          It Uses two pairs of Source to Source Mosfets after the power jack to prevent back flow from battery or PSU after the power jack.

          The drain on the board feed side of the Mosfets measures a near dead short to ground. I attempted a voltage injection there it draws about 1.4A at 1V absolutely nothing heats up on the thermal camera.
          It draws 1.86A injecting directly to ground.

          Is this just the way it is when these ultra...

          ASUS FX505DV no power shorted at PWM controller Pin 3 VREG3 TPS51225C, need pinpointing of the short.
          by OOF DIO
          (If anyone has a functional boardview file of FX505DV/DU that would be helpful)
          (Had 3 problems, now just 1)

          I have no experience or knowledge and usage of tools to repair devices besides the entire past 12-10 days of researching, watching YouTube repair videos and troubleshooting this laptop motherboard. ChatGPT was used as a guide to ask questions.
          I used boardviews of mostly FX505GD-M, and some FX505DU, FX505DD. Used schematics of FX505DU.

          I had originally intended to replace the BQ24780s first (due to previous battery removal while benchmarking) but I...

          Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 - no power
          by PantherDave
          Hi all!

          I'm trying to troubleshoot a Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 that won't power on. Motherboard model is M1007506-015. My priority is retrieving data, but the SSD is integrated so it looks like if I can't repair it it'll need to go to a data recovery company. I've done a little basic board repair before, but nothing this advanced until now. So please forgive my ignorance in advance. 😅

          I found the boardview for this laptop in the forums here, and am able to open it on my PC with FlexBV.
