    ASUS ROG Strix- G513IH-HN008, G513-6050A3249301- MB-A04 (A4) damaged Embedded Controller

    I have an ASUS ROG Strix- G513IH-HN008, motherboard G513-6050A3249301- MB-A04 (A4)

    When I received the device, the device has no function. After an investigation, I found that the PWM CONTROLLER RT6575B (U6100) is getting warm and there is a short circuit at the 3V3 output. This normally supplies 3V3 for the embedded controller IT5571E-128 (U301). When measuring and analyzing with a thermal imaging camera, I found that some components are damaged: SLG4E42553VTR (U8500), IT5571E-128 (U301), LAN RTL8111H (U450), LOGIC 74LVC1G08GW (U1900), RT6575B (U6100) All these components are on the 3V3 rail. I have replaced all the components. Now I no longer have a short circuit. The 3V3 flows to the embedded controller, 5V at the L6150 are also present. The MOSFETs for the 5V are controlled by the RT6575B (U6100).
    However, 3V3 at the L6100 is not present. It is possible that these are only switched during the start process. Does anyone know?
    The main problem is that no 3V3 is present at the PWM controller ITE8252E248A (U8003). The voltage should be provided by the G2898KD1U (U8000). 5V are present at the input of the U8000, but no 3V3 at the output. These are then switched to the IT8252E248A via U8001. The U8001 is controlled at PIN 3 by the embedded controller PIN 90.
    Now my question. Does the embedded controller have to be programmed after replacement? Is the behavior due to this? I have SVOD4. Can I use it to program the embedded controller?

    thanks to all

    I have examined the circuits​ for 3V3 and 5V rails.
    The board has a power management controller U8003 (ITE8252E248A) and an embedded controller U301 (IT5571E-128). The embedded controller is powered by U6100 (RT6575B) via the 3V3 Linear Regulator Output-PIN3. 3V3 are present on the EC. The RT6575B switches:
    1. MOSFETs for the 5V rail on PIN16-UGATE1 the Q6150 and PIN15-LGATE1 the Q6151. 5V are present and always on.
    2. MOSFETs for the 3V3 rail on PIN10-UGATE2 the Q6100 and PIN11-LGATE2 the Q6101. However, 3V3 are NOT present. The 3V3 output is activated on PIN6 of the RT6575B. PIN6 of the RT6575B is on PIN84 (ALWAYS_PW_EN3V) of the U301 (IT5571E-128). However, the 3V3 output is not activated by the embedded controller.
    Does the embedded controller need to be programmed? Where can I get a file to program it? The IT5571E-128 cannot be programmed via the keyboardConnector. Only the Power Controller ITE8252E248A (U8003) can be programmed via this.

    I hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance!

      if I am not mistaken, the embedded controller must be programmed automatically from the bios if the chip it's a new one

          Seeking Dell G15 Motherboard ICs for Embedded LED Controller (UEL1 and UEL2)
          by NotEnough
          Hello everyone,




          I'm working on a repair for my Dell G15 motherboard (model GDL5L) and need two specific ICs to restore the functionality of the Embedded LED Controller (ELC). The missing components are labeled as UEL1 and UEL2 in the schematic, and they're both critical for LED control and system signaling. Here are the details:




          1. UEL1

          • Part Number: SA0000AWJ70

          • Model: STM32F070CBT6TR_LQFP48_7X7

          • Function: This microcontroller manages system signaling, power management, and SPI...

          Dell Precision 3440 support for CPU 11th gen
          by Spikeman
          Hi, since both the Dell Precision 3440 and the Precision 3450 have the same chipset W480.
          I ask you if it is possible to add the correct microcodes for the Precision 3440.
          I am adding the list of files that I have extracted from the Bios in order to help you understand if it is feasible.

          defective Embedded Controller MSI GF63
          by Patrick501
          Hello,

          I located a defective EC (IT557VG-128)on a MS-16R81 2.0 board of a MSI Thin GF63 12U. The board doesn't have any voltages except the 19V power line.
          Some Caps and resistors around the EC show less than 2 ohms. One of them is a 3V rail. When I inject 1V@1A the EC heats up.
          I'm pretty sure I can't just buy and replace it since it probably needs the correct firmware on it.
          Does anyone of you guys know?...

          HP Folio 1020 G1 - Shared SPI Flash was Recovered from the Embedded Controller Flash
          by MrFlaps
          I booted my Windows 10 laptop with a Ubuntu USB Key drive and it's done something awful to the BIOS / UEFI.

          Entering sleep or shutting it down causes it to enter an unresponsive state.

          Sometimes the power LED by the charger port will flash orange / white.

          Sometimes the Caps Lock and Num Lock LEDs will flash.

          After some time it will boot with the following message

          "Shared SPI Flash was Recovered from the Embedded Controller Flash"

          and will then boot normally.

          I have also recieved the following...

          Help with freemotion incline trainer with controller comm error
          by ronnygracias
          The treadmill was working fine, one day the belt snapped and after checking the unit I also noticed that the display is now showing the Controller comm error. So I opened it up and the treadmill had two boards. One is a power supply board and the other is the motor controller. I noticed there was a mouse nest, so I took power supply board out, cleaned it up, replaced the big capacitor and that did nothing. Then I took apart the motor controller and cleaned that up, and when I plugged it in, it started right up. I thought I fixed it. But when the belt arrived, I installed it and tried to power...
