    mobo theory

    Hi ,

    i am newbie as my question confirm , i can see many components in different mobo section such as usb etc have a coil , 2 mosfet , interface connector and ic

    what is the principal/way they function together ?

    mosfet
    coil
    capacitor

    and in case one of them fail how to find the replacement of that ?

    Thanks.

    How do you test MOSFET in laptops ?
    by Jane
    I tried to use this method:

    Testing an N-channel MOSFET:

    Step 1: Discharge the Gate (turn off the MOSFET)
    Place the black probe (COM) on the Source (S) and the red probe on the Drain (D). The multimeter should show no continuity (high resistance or "OL" – open line).
    Then, touch the black probe to the Source (S) and the red probe to the Gate (G). This discharges any stored charge in the Gate, turning the MOSFET off.

    Step 2: Charge the Gate (turn on the MOSFET)
    Now, place the red probe on the Gate (G) and the black probe on the

    Acer aspire e1 572g dead
    by AppleLover123
    Hey Forum,

    I have a dead Acer Laptop from a friend. Find out that its a Mobo fault because Screen is working on other mobo and there are 19V on Power Jack that are going over the two Mosfets into the Mobo. So its actually charging too but no matter what i Do the leds wont come on. So i went over to the 5v and 3v Section and there is nothing at both. The 5v Rail is okay so no short but at the 3v Rail theres a short at PJ401 and on both sides from the Coil PL402 but on the capacitors there is no short. So i found a 19V 3.42Amps Charger (it works) plugged it into the Mobo and the Step...

    KDM 480W PSU upgrade succes! (opinions?)
    by bauto601
    Back in 2020 i bought a (2nd hand) compact ATX psu to replace my current one. My PC case only fits very short ATX power supplies so i didn't really have the choice of buying a decent 80Plus unit. The current unit is a modded YoungYear unit that i made a thread about a while ago:
    A "nice" YoungYear unit? - Badcaps

    The "new" unit is a KDM-M6480 480W psu, the 480W number is a typical KDM bullshit claim of course, but the 24A rating on the 12V rail seemed reasonable and the "Active PFC" claim gave me a bit of hope that this was going to be decent-ish....

    VGA MOSfet permanently shorted and loss of MOSfet pad
    by Nooy
    Hello everyone, I recently found this badcaps site and super Learn Electronics Repair youtube channel. And I wanted to learn how to troubleshoot power supplies and VGA cards and how to practice soldering, since I already have a properly defective piece of them. I am currently trying to solve two problems:

    I have a Gigabyte GV-RX460WF2OC-4GD type card. I managed to find the faulty MOSfet (AON6414A) on it, which I replaced. The card starts up, but after about half a minute, the MOSfet in the same position will be shorted again. Is it possible that the PWM controller driving the MOSfet...

    Asus X712EA 3 volts after the first mosfet
    by AppleLover123
    Hey guys,

    i have a asus motherboard here and as the title says after the first mosfet (in the picture) there is nothing more than 3.15v.
    I injected 19v and max. 1 amp at the charging port and there is not voltage drop or smth. It's just taking 19v and 1 milliamp.
    Then i tried to inject 19v and max 1amp after the current sensor and there it first takes 19v and 4 milliamps and after 2 seconds it is taking nothing (no current).
    I measured on the coils on board everything seems fine. Also the main power rail is not shorted (infinite resistance).
    Now i thought something...
