    Iphone 6 not charging Battery

    Hi guys i have an Iphone 6 that would not charge. It works fine off a charged battery. I want to determine if it's a bad port or U2 charging IC . Any basic way of checking if the U2 IC is bad or maybe it's the port? When i plug charger cable and i measure the battery terminal on the board without battery i get 2.5v .
    I cleaned the port the best i can. Same 2.5v.
    Based on you all experience you think it is a bad port or bad U2 Charging IC Chip ?

          Okay thanks a lot for leading me down the right path. Turned out to be a dirty charging port.Cleaned the charging port and voltage read normal 3.7v and charging the battery. So according to the video if I had a good known working charging port and i was still getting 0.5v or under 1.8v it means that the U2 IC most likely is bad and needs replacing. Thanks again mon2

              I would review to source at least the low cost breakout pads board so that you can use diode mode of testing the tristar IC (U2). Tristar chips do fail often and are good to keep ni your toolchest.

              We have seen numerous cases where the customer purchases a nasty low cost cable for charging and damages (arcs) the mating contact pins. In this case, the charging cable needed to be replaced.

              Also, cases where the tristar IC gets zapped and needs to be replaced. Diode mode or a special tester are handy to troubleshoot this case.

                      Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
                      by Bowline
                      My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

                      Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

                      My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
                      The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
                      I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

                      HP ProBook 445 G8 Battery not charging
                      by Julian Bailey
                      Hi all

                      We have in a HP ProBook 445 G8 laptop with AMD Ryzen 7 CPU. When power is connected the power LED light blinks 5 times then stops. Normally HP laptops will blink this LED 10 times as it does a self test when the AC adaptor is inserted. So there must be some sort of short somewhere.

                      The battery doesn't charge, and is erratic on the MM voltage. Bench PSU LED pulsates when the battery is connected also. So the fault must be on the charging circuit?

                      I have gone around the board with a MM and cant find anything

                      Windows shows the battery fine,...

                      Laptop battery charging circuit
                      by piernov
                      1. Some theory
                      1.1. Introduction
                      Almost every laptop has a charging circuit of some sort, that does a few things:
                      • Manages switching between AC adapter and battery power
                      • Manages battery charging and generates power rail to charge battery


                      There are 2 different designs to handle switching between AC adapter and battery power and feeding the system:
                      • Hybrid power boost (HPB) and traditional circuits without power boost (see Warning in HPB section)
                      • Narrow VDC (NVDC)

                      Texas instrument has a nice overview of these technologies with some more details at https:...

                      ThinkBook 15 G3 ACL Not Charging Battery - LA-K602P Board
                      by kodox
                      since i couldn't find schematic or boardview for this model (LA-K062P), i use closest board model found here https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...-and-boardview

                      the schematic share same marking for each component, using same PD-Controller, same BQ25710, the only different is the battery cell used. LA-K061P uses 3S battery while LA-K062P use 4S battery per schematic.
                      what i've done:

                      Lenovo T470P NM-B071P not charging, 20 volts on positive +ve battery terminal
                      by Zibbo
                      Lenovo T470P NM-B071P had no power. PQ2 and PQ11 were shorted, repaced them and laptop turned ON. Connected the battery and the motherboard turned off immediately and it won't charge, checked the voltages and found out that there is 20v on the positive battery terminal.
                      Replaced battery charger IC PU101 and the two switching mosfets PQ101 and PQ102 and still same problem. Now I can't figure out how 20v is ending up on the battery terminals.
