Hello

2

00:00:02,833 --> 00:00:08,133

Let's take a look at the importance of understanding the motherboard block diagram

3

00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:11,333

When we get a motherboard

4

00:00:11,933 --> 00:00:14,933

What chipset does this motherboard use?

5

00:00:15,066 --> 00:00:17,566

Does the EC come with a program?

6

00:00:17,566 --> 00:00:21,966

What are its timing sequence characteristics and so on

7

00:00:22,766 --> 00:00:26,100

We can find the answer in this block diagram of the motherboard

8

00:00:27,433 --> 00:00:29,666

Now let's take a look

9

00:00:31,833 --> 00:00:35,066

It's a block diagram of this motherboard

10

00:00:37,133 --> 00:00:42,400

From this block diagram, we can see the two big boxes in the middle

11

00:00:43,733 --> 00:00:45,166

Above is the CPU

12

00:00:45,166 --> 00:00:47,166

Below is the PCH

13

00:00:47,166 --> 00:00:49,500

Here is a codename

14

00:00:50,066 --> 00:00:53,900

For example, the code name of the CPU is Skylake

15

00:00:53,900 --> 00:00:57,600

This represents the 6th generation CPU

16

00:00:58,633 --> 00:01:02,833

This represents the PCH bridge (chip) of the 100 series

17

00:01:04,166 --> 00:01:08,166

In addition, we can also see the affiliation between each device

18

00:01:10,966 --> 00:01:16,666

For example, when the USB interface does not function properly

19

00:01:17,666 --> 00:01:21,866

We need to think about what causes the USB interface to malfunction

20

00:01:25,900 --> 00:01:29,166

Could it be a graphics card issue?

21

00:01:29,366 --> 00:01:31,300

Could it be the CPU problem?

22

00:01:32,700 --> 00:01:34,866

Could it be due to memory reasons?

23

00:01:34,933 --> 00:01:39,866

We can find the problem through the affiliation of the block diagram of the motherboard

24

00:01:40,866 --> 00:01:45,533

The USB interface is managed by the PCH through the USB bus

25

00:01:48,333 --> 00:01:54,700

From here it is clear that PCH damage is one of the reasons for the malfunctioning USB

26

00:01:58,833 --> 00:02:04,666

We can also judge whether this EC has a program through the block diagram

27

00:02:04,866 --> 00:02:12,266

In addition, we can also know which page of each module is in this picture through the number provided in the diagram

28

00:02:14,833 --> 00:02:18,566

For example, this EC, it's on page 24

29

00:02:20,100 --> 00:02:23,533

This is the information we can get from a block diagram
