SGMICRO SGM41516D 3.78A FAST CHARGER IC DETAILED REWORK GUIDE
====================================================================================================
1. FUNCTIONAL ARCHITECTURE & CIRCUIT ROLE:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- High-Voltage Synchronous Buck Charging:
* Optimized for 9V and 12V high-voltage fast charging adapters (QC/PD) as well as standard 5V USB inputs.
* Operates at 1.5MHz switching frequency, converting incoming power to high-efficiency charging current
(up to 3.78A) with 95.5% peak efficiency at 1A from 5V and 92.5% at 2A from 9V.
- Ultra-Low Resistance NVDC Power Path:
* Decouples the main system bus (VSYS / VPH_PWR) from the battery line using an ultra-low 11mΩ internal
BATFET switch. When the battery is drained to 0V, the device turns on instantly without waiting for
the battery to pre-charge.
- Monolithic Four-MOSFET Integration:
* Fully integrates RBFET (reverse blocking), HSFET (buck high-side), LSFET (buck low-side), and BATFET
inside a microscopic 30-ball WLCSP package.
- USB-OTG Reverse Boost:
* In OTG mode, SGM41516D reverses operation to boost battery power up to 5.0V DC (up to 1.2A output)
out of the USB port for external USB peripherals, with built-in hiccup mode short-circuit protection.
2. BOARD-LEVEL FAULT SYMPTOMS (خرابی کی نشانیاں):
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Zero Ampere Draw / No Charging Response:
* Inserting Type-C cable draws 0.000A on the USB digital power meter; phone shows no charging icon.
- Fake Charging (فیک چارجنگ):
* Charging symbol appears on the display, but battery percentage stays stagnant or drains (draws 0.05A–0.12A
on USB doctor meter).
- Slow Charging (سلو چارجنگ):
* Current draw remains permanently throttled at 0.40A–0.45A because the IC fails to negotiate high-voltage
9V fast charging or the external buck coil is degraded.
- Dead Phone / VPH_PWR Short to Ground:
* Internal high-side buck MOSFET breakdown creates a direct short from the main system line to ground,
causing DC bench power supplies to trigger short-circuit protection immediately (0.000V in diode mode).
- Immediate Shutdown When Charger is Removed:
* Phone operates normally while plugged into the charger, but cuts off instantly the moment the cable
is unplugged (blown internal 11mΩ BATFET unable to supply current from battery to motherboard).
- Severe Component Overheating:
* SGM41516D gets scalding hot immediately upon inserting the charging cable.
3. STEP-BY-STEP MULTIMETER TESTING & DIAGNOSTICS:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A. Cold Testing (Diode Mode Check - Battery & Charger Disconnected):
1. Place Multimeter in Diode Mode. Connect RED probe to PCB Ground (Shielding frame), test with
BLACK probe around SGM41516D:
- VBUS Input Filter Capacitors: Normal ~520mV – 660mV (0.000V = dead short on Type-C 5V/9V input).
- PMID Capacitors (Internal High-Side Rail): Normal ~480mV – 620mV.
- SW (Switch Node) / Output Inductor: Normal ~340mV – 460mV.
- VSYS / VPH_PWR Output Filter Capacitors: Normal ~350mV – 480mV.
- VBAT Battery Connection Terminal: Normal ~380mV – 500mV.
- I2C Communication Lines (SDA / SCL): Normal ~450mV – 650mV.
2. Short-Circuit Verification:
- If VBUS or VSYS reads 0.000V, inject 3.8V DC (limited to 1.5A). Observe with thermal camera or
rosin flux: if SGM41516D illuminates white-hot, remove the chip.
B. Hot Testing (USB Charger Connected):
1. Plug in verified 5V/9V Type-C charger:
- Check VBUS capacitor: Must measure steady 5.0V or 9.0V DC.
- Check PMID capacitor: Must measure 5.0V or 9.0V DC. If VBUS has voltage but PMID has 0V, internal
RBFET is blown.
- Check switching coil output: Must measure stable system voltage (3.6V to 4.35V DC).
- Check VBAT battery connector: Must output active charging voltage. If VSYS is 4.0V but VBAT pin
is 0V, BATFET inside SGM41516D is open.
4. SOLDERING, REBALLING & REWORK SPECIFICATIONS:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Micro WLCSP-30 BGA Architecture:
* SGM41516D is an ultra-compact wafer-level BGA chip (2.0mm x 2.4mm) with 30 micro-balls on a 0.4mm pitch.
Excessive heat or mechanical pressure can easily chip its glass corners.
- IC Desoldering:
* Shield adjacent plastic connectors (FPC sockets, battery clips) with Kapton or aluminum heat tape.
* Apply high-grade, non-corrosive RMA tacky flux around SGM41516D.
* Hot air rework parameters: Temperature 330°C – 345°C, airflow 30% with a fine-tip nozzle.
* Circle the heat evenly over the chip for 15–20 seconds. Touch gently with precision tweezers; once the
solder balls liquefy completely, lift straight up without dragging across PCB pads.
- Motherboard Pad Cleaning:
* Apply leaded solder paste (Sn63/Pb37, 183°C) to dilute high-melt unleaded factory alloy.
* Flatten motherboard micro-pads using fine copper desoldering braid and a micro-tip soldering iron
at 280°C – 290°C.
* Clean thoroughly with 99% pure Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA); inspect under a microscope to confirm no
bridging or missing traces.
- Reballing Procedure:
* Use a dedicated SGM41516 / WLCSP-30 stencil (0.12mm thickness, 0.4mm pitch).
* Scrape 183°C fine-grain leaded solder paste smoothly into all apertures.
* Heat with hot air set to 280°C with low airflow (15%–20%) until bright, uniform solder spheres form.
- Placement & Final Reflow:
* Spread a microscopic film of tacky flux on PCB footprint.
* Align Pin 1 index dot precisely with the motherboard silkscreen corner marker.
* Reflow at 305°C – 315°C with 30% airflow; the chip will automatically pull into center alignment via
molten solder surface tension.
* Allow motherboard to cool naturally for 3–5 minutes before connecting battery and testing charging current.
