    like MOSFETs, Zener diod is almost certainly part of the charging chip design template. Most of the manufacturers implement reference design instead of inventing their own weel. The problem with input voltage protection is that both MOSFETs could be shorted by voltage spike of a malfunctioning power supply. If it builds up a high-frequency AC ripple, it may be overseen by ACDET regulator but it will still blow insulator in MOSFET. in this case, you have uncontrolled DCIN going directly into the main power rail which is always a bad situation. Zener diodes are used on every single HDD as an over-voltage protection fuse - it gets blown very fast and it shorts power rail to the ground. Think of Zener diodes as an over-Voltage fuse.
    Since you did not replace the Zener and customer will use the same PSU, this laptop might come back at some point and I guess if it will, it will come with a blown cap or VCORE MosFET.

    It's not zenner diode, it's reverse polarity protection. See it's pd9, not pz9 and the symbol shows a diode. That's why it is there for reason and not stupid.

    That part you were pointing out is actually a TVS diode (transient voltage suppressor) marked as "IV". You can look at it's specifications under it's equivalent being SMAJ20A tvs diode. It was a bit tricky finding it as either new semiconductor devices do not have a standardized marking code or, that (somewhat imperialistic) companies have their own marking code which at times do not even correspond to their own data books.

      Now if these diodes are shorting to ground on over voltage then why would it not work correctly again when the over voltage is gone?
      I suppose that this diode was damaged. Permanently shorting to ground.

  • @sviktor4
    @sviktor4 5 років тому +17

    In my PSU designs I use suppressor diodes to protect from spikes, when they fail, fail short and burn out the fuse, so the rest of the board is safe and doesn't stress the charger or whatewer the power source. HP really should put some kind of fuse to the power rails.
    EDIT: if something goes wrong with the charger or wrong charger plugged in tantalium capacitors blow up pretty agressively. My guess they use max 25V components.

    Subbed and Thumbs up! Thank you so much for this! I was a repair engineer _Once_ and I still like to think that I can tackle most things but I was presented one of these in a very similar scenario, with the exception that the charging light comes on and it will charge the battery but when the power button is pressed, lights (but no screen) come on briefly; fan spins briefly then everything goes quiet, leaving only the charge light on. PSU is fine but *not* original. One of my excuses to not attempt something like this is that I don't have a Scope or re-ball facilities but you prove the contrary, using tried and tested basic equipment to repair things that would otherwise be 'beyond economical repair' by smaller companies and astronomically high priced repairs from manufacturers.

    It may be a Transil diode called also TVS (Transient Voltage Supressor). It is used to protect against overvoltage. It shorted itself but protected rest of the components. In some cases transil can even protect against catching fire or explosion of Lithium-ion batteries.

    • @paulf1071
      @paulf1071 5 років тому +4

      Yes, it may have been a TVS diode doing its protection job correctly. That TVS may have been under-rated, or else a massive voltage spike appeared on the line.

    If the Zener diode wasn't there you would have a much larger repair job. Yea the Zener killed the laptop but it prevented damage elsewhere. The zener diode is probably there to meet some safety agency requirement.

    • @gabiold
      @gabiold 5 років тому

      There are supressors or MOVs which are designed especially for surge protection. Zener diodes are not really suitable for the task. Not in this power range. On a low power rail maybe, or on an I/O line, it is.

I must be doing something right since my designs do pass UL.

The "logic" in circuitry is very similar to the "logic" in software, and most of the time, there are problems with insufficient testing and a lack of consideration for the end user's perspective.
