Not yet, after I replaced ISL and resistors with new ones I had to leave my office. I’ll power it up on Monday and report. Something tells me, that they will blow again... Thank you for your support, I really appreciate it. I wish you good weekend, will get back to this on Monday ?
I'm more than sure that it has correct value, I'm replacing it already third time and checking before and after soldering... I have just put new one there, it measured 330K. I plugged charger and board doesn't react, just clicking. I measure R7086 - blown, shows OL...
Considering the worst scenario, applying 20V on 330K resistor, means 0.06mA (60 microampers).
Do you really thing that resistor can get blown from such reason (1.2mW)???
Yes, you are completely correct, I don't argue with that. I just post here what is happening on this board. I put perfectly measuring 330K resistor, triple check it before plugging charger in. After I plug it in nothing happens. I disconnect charger, check that resistor and it's OL.... I've done it 2 more times now. every time putting 330k resistor..
Everything done and checked triple before connecting charger. Board has green/orange light, clicking every half second with quarter fan spin. With charger only PPBUS is 8,37v, with battery 7,99v, with both is jumping 8,17v-8,56v. Current sense is OK, U7000 pins 27/28 have 20,5ohm, 17/18 have 2,5 ohm.
R7086 was perfect 330K, after disconnecting charger it shows OL or 80K, after some time it's 330K again. This board is trolling me now...
