This Hard Kernel Odroid Go Advance was bought from Facebook Marketplace for £20. It has an odd fault, and doesn't seem to power on properly.
Let's see if we can fix it!
Hope you enjoy!

I'm thinking it probably acts as a shunt for sensing the battery current, either for charging or discharging. It probably won't cause an overcharge, but it might result in too much charging current, which isn't exactly good either. It might also cause issues for the accuracy of the battery percentage reading, since the current draw is usually used to compensate for the voltage drop.

Good fix! A note though, the 10mOhm resistor could have been a current sense resistor for overcurrent detection. That's how shunt current sensors work, you feed the difference voltage from either terminal of the resistor to a differential op amp and it gives you measurable voltage from a few millivolts or less. a 0-ohm will yield 0 voltage drop, so your current sensor will always measure 0 amps. It's just a protection though, so it can work without. Cheers

Steve, when measuring small resistance (let's say less than 10 Ohms) with a handheld multimeter, you should always "zero your leads", i.e. check the reading on the multimeter with the leads shorted and, if it's not zero, substract it from the measured value. A good set of leads should read about 0.06 Ohms, which your multimeter should round up to 0.1 Ohms. If it doesn't, then the "0" Ohm resistor does indeed have some resistance. At my job I regularly measure resistances of 0.0001 Ohms or lower, so 0.01 Ohm is a fairly large one in the world of current measuring shunts.

@kikihobbyrepair
@kikihobbyrepair Жыл бұрын
Nice fix Steve! A 0,01 Ohm resistor (or any really low precize value resistor) is usually a current sensing resistor. The device is measuring the voltage drop on that specific value and then it can calculate the current draw. I do now know the entire circuit could be that it is measuring the current draw of teh device or charging current or something like this and if there would be a short for example it would know that there is an excess overcurrent so it would shut down. You might have killed this feature now because it will definitely measure some odd value.

I've seen surface mount 0-ohm resistors used a couple of ways, principally as a jumper instead of using a via to another layer to hop over another track on the PCB, I've also seen them used as a "poor man's fuse" since the component may be electronically inconsequential it still has a maximum power rating, which can be more practical than using an actual fuse ~ particularly around batteries where a fixed amperage fuse can be problematic

That was Battery Current Sense. The charge chip diverts a portion of the USB charge voltage to the battery for charging. The charge chip outputs the voltage towards the battery. To ensure the current is normal, the charge chip samples the voltage before and after it passes the resistor. Without the resistor the charge chip thinks there is a short and will not charge or supply power to the battery.

@@StezStixFix Hi Steve, just to let you know, there are people here that has confirmed that the 0.01ohm resistor is for measuring charge current. It's critical that this is not a zero ohm resistor, because the chip that manages charge, will think that it's charging with 0Amps, because there's no voltage drop over the resistor, and keep cranking up the voltage to whatever maximum it can, which will likely destroy the battery - but I hope that it won't fail violently. Regardless, please replace that resistor before charging the battery again 🙏😊 (EDIT: I'm not saying this to steal credit, please give it to the person who looked up the diagram - I just worry about battery safety)

@@yogibear2k220 Don't get me wrong, I think Steve is great, I wish he was a mate of mine. He has ten times more screen presence than I do and I wish him every success. I know what it's like to put yourself out there to take criticism and it only takes one smart arse to spoil your day. On the point of the resistor I just thought, Oh, he hasn't looked into why it showed a resistance and why would it be zero ohms and this surprised me. No hate or one-up-manship intended, I accept my comment did read that way.

Hi, where can I get a stand like the one you have for your microscope. The stock stand is kinda short, thanks.

He has a video about the microscopes, I don't have time to link it but I wanted to give you a hint in case Steve doesn't see this.
