  • I think so far this is my biggest spend on the series. Hopefully we can make a profit, otherwise it's quite a big loss!

    0.5v at 3A is only 1.5W, that's not much power. In a thick board like that you will struggle to find the short. You need to up the voltage. Also, I think you are confused about how the bench power supply works. You need to choose constant current or constant voltage, if you try to adjust both it will go by the one you adjusted last. Just set it to 1v and let it draw as much amps as it takes. If it's not enough to get hot, up the voltage slowly. Don't touch the amp setting.

    • @JoeyDoesTech
      @JoeyDoesTech  ปีที่แล้ว +14

      I think you're right Simon 😂😂 Setting the amps to 5 (max on my PSU) and just gradually increasing the voltage is how I should do it. Thankyou for the feedback!

    Try to have a ball of solder on your tip and running it across the pads to get a small build up first. Do the same to the pins on the port, that way when you go to place it on the board, it will latch to it better.

    when there is no hot component mean ther is a large path that is shorted to grond. and a large path is nearly impossible to expose because is making very very very low heat and the board dissipate it quickly. i see many case of apu rail mosfet cause this problem. but to find it you need to desolder all of them

    • @Dmiliunas
      @Dmiliunas ปีที่แล้ว +2

      This is the case. If you have no heat, Means there is direct path to Ground. And you will never heat entire board with few wats. Pull mosfets one at the time and keep measuring.
      If all mosfets gone and short disapiers the Main suspect will be APU. Also while injecting Voltage, measure after mosfet before apu and see if you have voltage there. Then you know if any mosfets are open.

    Looks like a cheap board from the manufacturer. If it hasn't been opened. or replaced, most likely. As you said, has no details on it. The fault is no power. You've checked the 12v for shorts. Clearly visible on the multimeter but not the camera. Have you tried diode mode?

    I suggest you to remove second from the bottom mosfet as it's most likely to fail. If that doesn't fix the short, then I would just remove one by one the rest of them. May sound like a lot of work, but there's very high chances that the short is over there.
    Good job anyway, keep it up!
