    a1297 820-2914A - 18v at Vcore!!

    Hello

    An easy one, but just in case i ask> It is a no power mac, but saddly come with a missing mosfet Q7035 , tested vcore coils and AC volt is present at them, so 18v in the coils!! (I' ve never seen this) is this a garbage? no green led just 4mah consumption....
    no water damage looks pristine

    thanks in advance

    Apple 820-3662 VCore shorted to ground.
    by barry101
    Hi, Would appreciate some help.
    I have an Apple Late 2013 15" A1398 MacBook Pro with Logic Board 820-3662.
    Get charger light but no fan spin or chime. No liquid damage.
    Found PPBUS and VCORE both shorted to ground. Other rails were ok.
    Removed VCORE MOSFETS U7310, U7320 and U7330. Found U7330 was in fact shorted.
    With the 3 MOSFETS removed, get PPBUS and fan spin. VCORE is still hard shorted to ground (0 ohms).
    Attempted voltage insertion on VCORE to locate short using bench supply set at 1.0 VDC and 4.95 Amps (max current for my...

    Help identifying the function of these two coils - MSI Delta 15 (MS-15CK1)
    by Salvador Pérez
    Hello everyone, I'm troubleshooting an MSI Delta 15 (MS-15CK1) motherboard, and I need help identifying the function of the two coils marked in the attached image. The laptop powers on and responds to the keyboard, but the screen does not turn on-neither the LCD nor the backlight. I've checked the main power rails, and all other coils seem to have the expected voltages:

    • 0.91V for the GPU
    • 1.7V for VRAM
    • 3.3V and 5V rails 1.8V for the BIOS
    • 0.9V for the CPU and iGPU 1.2V for the RAM

    However, these two coils are not showing any voltage....

    Rx580 8gb sapphire nitro+ turn off vcore randomly
    by mikzs
    Hello, this is my first post, English is not my native language but I hope you understand me. I recently got a 580 that didn't turn on the typical short mosfet, as I didn't know exactly which one was short, I unsoldered them until I got the bad one out, I was able to remove the short and identify the bad mosfet, the gpu gives video again! but it has a problem that completely turns off vcore at random times or if I try to put a load on the gpu vcore drops to 0 I don't have much idea why because I don't know much about sapphire, any advice on where I could start looking or what problem it could...

    Hp Lh482p 5 short 3 long short after cpu vcore mosfet replacement
    by jm942
    Hi,
    My laptop went dead and after checking ,the main 19 volt power rail was shorted. After some checks i could identify that a high side vcore mosfet was shorted.
    I replaced the mosfet and now the white powerled is present , fans start spinning but capslock shows the famous 5 long and 3 short code.

    I checked the vcore voltages after replacement and i get for all 1.01 V so means for me that the driver is still working of the replaced shorted mosfet. On the Nvidia i measure around 0.8 V after the mosfets.
    I did voltage injection on the cpu with 0.7V and i have a current...

    Optiplex 3050 Vcore Mosfet short
    by pavithra_uk
    it is 3+2 vrm
    vcore high side mosfet (AON6380) shorted when turned on instatly killed the processor (i5 7400)
    gate drive chip (NCP81166) also gone.

    any suggestions before replace mosfet and gate drive chip? what if I replace 3 high side mosfets with more current capable mosfets?

    odd question:
    what if I put two silicone diodes series in forward way? assume each diode 0.7v drop and total of 1.4V. vcore not exceed this but can protect cpu from direct 12V hit from shorted mosfet ?...
