820-01521 only shows 5V 0.04A

[kingskie]

Hello,

i've been working on macbook air 820-01521
it is dead no charging. tried to connect to apple configurator always shows accessories not supported.

using amp meter only shows 5V and 0.04A

here are some measurements:

PPBUS_G3H = 12.26V
PP3V3_G3H = 3.275V
PP5V_G3S = 0V
PP20V_USBC_XA_VBUS = 5V (can i inject 20V 1A here?)

Re: 820-01521 only shows 5V 0.04A

First check why there is no 20v.
Check CD chips.
Most of the time if you manage to make them go board will wake up.

Do not start from back

PP5VG3S_EN present?

How do you have 12.2v on main rail?
Do you meassure with battery connected? (come on)

Re: 820-01521 only shows 5V 0.04A

PP20V_USBC_XA_VBUS = 5V (can i inject 20V 1A here?)

No!! If you are not getting to 20v, something is wrong.

Remove all power. Meter in diode mode.

Red lead - yes RED meter lead to ground.

Black meter lead to a LDO rail of each ACE power delivery controller.

Check the LDO rails in diode mode of each ACE controller and post the readings.

Repeat for each ACE device.

there is no rail called PP5VG3S_EN

yes i have 12.26V on PPBUS rail

PP3V3_UPC_XA_LDO = 26K ohm
PP3V3_UPC_XB_LDO = 25K ohm
PP5V_S5_LDO = 15.4K ohm

Re: 820-01521 only shows 5V 0.04A

These are resistance readings. Do you have a diode scale on your meter? Can you post a pic of your meter?

Then review my earlier post on how to use the diode mode scale and take the measurements.

Press the yellow button to cycle through to diode-mode.

It'll likely show a diode symbol on the screen

As mon2 said kingskie, checking diode mode readings should start to give you a idea of which ACE controller may be acting differently. It may show all the same readings for all but it is a good place to start to see any differences.

Do you see the same voltage and current draw for each USB type C port?

What are the voltage readings of the following?

PP1V8_SLPS2R

PP1V1_SLPS2R

These 2 rails are ok. They power the T2 device.

yes they both have the same current draw...could it be T2 chip is the culprit or PMIC?

any suggestions?

Re: 820-01521 only shows 5V 0.04A

SBC_XB_SBU2 = 0L

Is not correct for this diode reading. Can you check again?

It should be about 0.65.

Check also

USBC_XB_SBU1

USBC_XA_SBU1
USBC_XA_SBU2

i checked USBC_XB_SBU2 from the test point that i attached still OL
USBC_XB_SBU1 = OL
USBC_XA_SBU1 = OL
USBC_XA_SBU2 = OL

Re: 820-01521 only shows 5V 0.04A

Post a pic of your multimeter so we can confirm the diode mode setting.

You are in ohms mode.

Press the yellow button till you see the diode symbol and measure again.
