  • Something a little different - our laptop stopped charging, and this isn't the first time this has happened. But unlike last time the fault lies elsewhere...

    Pretty classic failure mode for a charging circuit or even I/O ports for that matter. It is good that they fail in this way, but it would be nice if they made it easier to fix. I also have a Dell, but not that model. Mine is an Inspirion 15 5000 series, but I am certain the internals are similarly made.

    No screws left over. Amazing.

      LOL! I know right? I almost always end up with at least one left over that I'm wondering where it went.

    This is why I hate laptops...so hard to get in and fix something. I've got a Dell laptop from about the same year with a similar charging problem...hrm...

    I have seen the same charging fault in a couple of dells at work. Bad design I guess. Newer ones are USB-C so hopefully that resolves some issues.

    Shame. Mouser should not charge more than a buck for the chip and a couple of bucks for the 1st class letter with the near weightless chip.

    Please don’t confuse identification with authentication. The sense/id pins are to tell it the max power of the charger, not to confirm it is “genuine” (you said it twice)

      “ to let the device know it’s connected to a genuine dell charger AND how much the charger can output (AKA the max power)”. He said it in the first 30 seconds of the video…

      @@ImPretendtious exactly - ‘genuine dell charger’. It does not confirm it is a genuine dell.

      He knows the pin is used to detect the max power from the supply, that part was unnecessary. Making sure not to confuse authentication for identification was all that was necessary less it comes across as pedantic.

    • @TheRetroChannel
      @TheRetroChannel  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The EEPROM in the charger contains not only the max power of the charger but also the *manufacturer ID and serial number*. This information is sent to the laptop over the "sense/id" pin and if any of that is missing or incorrect, the charger is deemed unknown

      @@TheRetroChannel contains it, sure… but have you checked it reads it? Last I saw they only read 3 bytes of data containing the wattage. Admittedly it was a fair few years back, but then again so is this laptop!
