Motherboard PCB details

PCB also known as printed circuit board.

PCB is also called PWB known as printed wired board.

The board is completely ground and positive tracks are printed on circuit board.

See the image below to understand the concept of printer circuit board



These details will help.

Thanks.

When it is said component is Open,Short or Ground

Concept of Open ,Short and Ground for a electric component on motherboard.

The two poles of component separated from inside is open component.

Two poles of component connected to each other from inside is short component.

And in a component where positive rail shown continuity with ground then the component is said to be ground.

When the component  shows ground,that means the component is not faulty,but the chip or IC to which these component is connected,that chip is faulty and it has to be replaced.

See the details and image of open,short and ground concept for more understanding:-----

electric component testing



These will help you to know which component is open,short ,ground or its ok component but its controlling chip itself is faulty.
Thanks.

What is Chipset in Motherboard

Motherboard chipset also known as bridges.

There are two bridges on motherboard.

One is norther bridge and other is south bridge.

Also called as MCH or ICH.

One controls memory related components and modules and other controls Input/output components and modules.

Basically chipset is combination of MCH and ICH .
Chipset's manufacturers outsource their chips to various vendors like Gigabyte,Maxtone,Asus etc.

Chipset manufacturers also manufacture there own chipset's like AMD,Intel etc.

The numbering of Motherboard is actually the numbeing of MCH in most of cases.

Example:---
For G31 motherboard,G31 is actually the number of MCH present on motherboard.



When any of these chipset gets faulty,there are two options to solve the issue.

One is re-balling the same chipset and using it again and other is replacing complete chip set with new chip set of same match.

Re-balling is best option,but its always not successful.

See the MCH details and diagram shown below:---

Motherboard Starts and Immediately Shutdown



To understand these problem,you should know how exactly the desktop motherboard works and functions.

How exactly the power supply voltages runs through the motherboard.

When you connect SMPS connector to the mother board, the +3.3 volts to 5 volts are received on PWSw pin of power switch on motherboard.( These is with motherboard not turned ON,just SMPS connector connected to motherboard).

Now when you press the Power switch or short positive/negative pin of PwSw pin on motherboard these 3.3 volts or 5 volts becomes ground.

When these happens,these signals the IO chip to turn ON the motherboard.

These process remains continued.
The motherboard remains in ON condition as long as the power good voltage of SMPS continues to receive on IO chip.
The power good comes from grey wire of SMPS.
If these power good stops coming,the mother board will immediately shut down.

So if power good of SMPS is not received on IO chip then motherboard shuts down.

In that case either is loose power good grey wire of SMPS or faulty SMPS itself or SMPS connector not properly connected or its faulty SMPS molex where SMPS is inserted or its faulty IO chip itself or shorting in track.

There are many possibilities to check with.


See below the SMPS wire color diagram to understand which voltage goes to IO chip

Understanding SOP-8 Package OPAM

OPAM is also known as Operational Amplifier.

There is no difference between SOP-8 Regulator and SOP-8 OPAM.

The only difference to identify these two components is the Ground pin.

On regulator the Pin number 2 is Ground and on OPAM pin number 4 is Ground.

See below the Image of common SOP-8 package OPAM and its pin configuration details:-----

operational amplifier

You can see that 4th pin in OPAM is ground pin.Pin 8 takes the volt in.Its the VCC pin.The particular OPAM shown is DUAL OPAM.
The output on OPAM depends on Volt out requirement.

The Two inputs inverting and non-inverting input.

Either these two input get Add to receive output OR these Two input are multiplied to get one output OR these two inputs are compared to get one output.

These OPAM are mostly seen on Desktop and Laptop motherboard.

On desktop near Ram power supply section many a times Dual OPAM is used.

These details will help.
