    Love watching your videos, infact I've watched that many it gave me the confidence to take apart a faulty motor drive module from one of our arcade machines in which I found 2 blown mosfets which i replaced and it now works :-) cost me £3 instead of £350 for a new module - thankyou and keep up the great work

    • @g4z-kb7ct
      @g4z-kb7ct Месяц назад

      The chip communicates with main board and must work, otherwise laptop can't see the battery. Suppying LDO voltage will not help. Quite often LDO voltage isn't even used. It's just a function of the chip but LDO output current is only very low 40mA max (check datasheet) so it can't really do much. LDO is just useful to check to see if the chip is alive or not.

      The Multimeter he’s using has software for the pc to display it on his screen. Then he uses OBS to grab the application so you can see it. There are a few brands that sell a Bench Multimeter with data link. A decent budget one you can buy is made by Owon (XDM) models or a higher end brand would be Siglent. There are a few handheld multimeters that have the pc link too. I think one super cheap one is called the BTMETER BT-90 & the 90-EPD. These 2 are super budget but good for learning how to use it with a pc.

    You know.. i quite dislike Sorin's habit of not replacing capacitors. That capacitor he removed at around 12:25 looked to have a VIA right next to it, and it stands to reason for a capacitor to fail, it must have had current. And if that current cannot pass without the cap, that might hinder the operation of the board and thus the chip. After all, meany producers use caps as a makeshift signal filter and/or fuse. And unless there are multiple cap's in paralell then testing without replacing semes odd to me.
    Altso, bending the bord to remove said cap, wont even sit straight after. Could quite possibly crack solder joints. But who know's, maybe its just my OCD that is suffering.

And I'm betting he didn't replace the one he removed this time either. He is only saying "I will replace it off camera" to silence the masses, while those who know him knows very well he won't.
