I try to repair laptop ACER SWIFT SF314-51 , which is dead.
I found out there is a problem with BQ24735 - ACDRV (pin 4) is only about 0.9V. ( if i remove resistor - coming from that ACDRV to mosfet, value is still not good).
Few others values of BQ24735 are:
Values are about :
pin 20: VCC 19V
pin 6: ACDET 2.6V
pin 16: REGN 5.99V
pin 5: ACOK 1.6V
When I remove pull up resistor from pin 5 ( ACOK) value becomes about 3.3V.
Do you think that there must be a problem after that pull up resistor rail, so that the voltage from ACOK is pull down not pull up?
I tried 3 different BQ24735 but the results still not good
Laptop schematic included.
Any help would be appreciated.ACER SWIFT SF314-51 CARDB(X3) R22 20160831 1110 (Kabylake U) (1).rar
Hi La,
It looks there are other issues on the board. It pulls down the ACOK signal, otherwise it should be 3.3V without external pull-down. The other voltage rails look Okay to me.
Sorry, I am not good at the system level debugging, and could not provide further assistance.

Thanks for the reply.
But why must be ACOK signal pulled up with the resistor( according to the datasheet)?
If I removed the resistor from ACOK signal, there is 3.3.V but ACDRV still is NOT.
To confirm if this issue is related to BQ24735, I would suggest you try ABA swap.
