    A1466 Missing Vcore

    Logic Board:820-00165A

    It turns on without display. Vcore is missing. Rest all voltage are there.

    01.All_Sys_PwrGood-3.3V
    02.P1V8S3_PGood-3.3V
    03.P1V05S0_Pgood-3.3V
    04.DDRREG_PGood-3.3V
    05.P5VS4RS3_PGood-3.3V
    06.S5_PGood-3.3V

    Missing
    01.CPU_VCCST_Pwrgd. R1931 Pin1 has P1V05S, pin2 is zero.Resistance on R1931,pin1 is 110 Ohms,PIn2 is 0.885K.
    02.U7200,PIn1 VR_EN is missing. CPU_VR_Ready is present on R1955. Resistance Value of R1800 is good.

    R1931 showed incorrect value and was rusted/frozen on CPU_VCCST_PGood side. I've restored the two pads and soldered 10K Resistor. MB doesnt turn on if R1931 is soldered. If i remove R1931,it turns on without Vcore.

    Can U1930 be bad or i'm on wrong path??
    U1930 measurements
    PIn1-PM_SLP_S3_L-3.3V
    Pin2-All_SYS_PGood-3.3V
    Pin4-CPU_VCCST_PG-0V
    Pin6-PP3V_S5-3.3V


    Have'nt done anything apart from measuring rails/voltages and replacing R1931 .

    Please advise how to move further. As said earlier, i dont have much knowledge on macbooks repair

    Hello mcplslg123,

    please measure:
    P3V3S0_EN and check whether you have 3v3_S0.
    U8030 is a switch that transfer 3v3 _S5 to 3V3_S0.

    When P3V3S0_EN is 3.3V, it will "move" 3V3_S5 to 3V3_S0

      PM_SLP_S5_L most likely pulsing with R1931 soldered. Check with oscilloscope.

        P3V3S0_EN & P3V3S0-Both are present with R1931 unsoldered.

          With R1931 soldered, there is nothing on PM_SLP_S5_L. Consumption on dc Supply starts with 0.0015amps and goes to 0.0026A. magsafe light goes from green to orange. With R1931 unsoldered, PM_SLP_S5_L is stable 3.3V. With R1931 unsoldered it turns on, consumption at 0.0150A with missing CPU_VCCST_PGOOD

            Set trigger to single shot rising edge at like 1V on the oscilloscope if you can't see the pulse right away.
            (maybe 500us/div horizontal)

              check these lines: svid_clk, svid_data and vid_alert. you should have some impulses at svid_data on CPU pwm ic.

                Unrelated. SVID won't work if VCCST_PGOOD is missing.

                  @piernov, will check it. Btw, if it pulses what is the solution??

                      CPU vcore missing in HP workstation Z2 Mini 4G
                      by Francisco.s
                      Hi, have a HP workstation Z2 Mini 4G for repair with CPU vcore missing.

                      The resistance at the output of CPU vcore coils, is less than one ohm so I think CPU could be damaged, but no mosfet are damaged.
                      It mounts an i7 8th gen, and have only i5 7th gen for test, but I think it is not compatible.

                      Without CPU in the socket there is no short, but there is no vcore voltag, and it emits a beep like no detecting ram.

                      The controller chip for cpu vcore is a MP2949A, and has no enable voltage at pin 37.

                      I wonder which circuit generates this enable...

                      RTX 2080 ti (Zotac - triple fan) - No video output / Vcore / Vmem missing
                      by T4H
                      Hi,
                      I have an RTX 2080 ti (Zotac - triple fan) with no video output.
                      So far I have measured the following:
                      • PS_FBVDD_PH3_SW = 40 ohm to ground (Micron ICs) - Memory should be fine right?
                      • 12V power rail present
                      • 3.3V power rail present
                      • 5V power rail present
                      • 1.8V power rail present
                      • Vcore power rail missing --> PS_NVVDD_VREF is present. (from uP9512P / U812)
                      • Vmem power rail missing --> Not there because Vcore power rail is missing.

                      Any idea? I have already tried to flash the BIOS chip (backup got created) - sadly no changes.

                      MSI Z390-A PRO missing VCORE voltages
                      by karlp028
                      I've got an MSI Z390-A Pro motherboard that starts up fine, but it's missing the VCORE (and VGT) voltages. All of the other voltages are present (e.g. VCCSA, VCCIO) and I know the CPU (i7-9700k) is good. Now, the original PWM controller (UP9521P) had an internal short and I replaced it with a new one. All of the enable signals look good. The problem seems to be the PWM signals going to the MOSFET drivers. I checked them with an oscilloscope and they are all flat 1.5V with no pulses. I don't know why this would be and I'm not sure where to look next.

                      Z170 Pro Gaming missing Vcore after cleaning
                      by brusli009
                      I bought it used and was filled with dust, but was working fine, took the heatsinks off and gave it a quick clean with ipa and a soft brush.
                      The next day it starts but the vcore is missing, also the qled dont light up, from what ive seen on the boardview (posted on the forum) i think im missing the vcore enable, but not sure. Also if the 8pin cpu is removed when the board is started,it dosent do anything, feels like the board dosent know that its connected.
                      Maybe someone has some ideeas or something.

                      HP 17-cn0234ng - RAM and VCORE voltage missing
                      by chbalnuweit
                      Hi all,

                      I got an HP 17-cn0234ng and I am hitting a wall diagnosing it.

                      When I first got it, it wouldnt turn on at all and no lights were active.

                      I found a shorted capacitor on the 3.3V powerrail near the lid sensor. Once I removed the shorted capacitor, the power and charging light on the DC connector started working and the Laptop reacted to the powerbutton.

                      When I press the powerbutton, current consumption goes up to about 50mA and just stays there. Chipset and 3.3V regulator getting a bit warm under thermal camera, but not really noticeable...
