    got only this one. I'll look at home later, maybe I've got more. need them, too. I'm heading for a new trial

    Just remember, that one thing was marked wrongly on this photo - ID pin shouldn't be soldered together with ground. It will work, but You'll loose possibility of detecting ID pin state with *may* be used in future by some package, H-E-N for example.

    anyone still got the picture of the golden pads under the battery? of course with description.

    edit: ah it's back online

    edit2: I've made a diagram for myself, to see how I have to connect my socket. the pink lines will be my wires from the usb socket to the pads. maybe it's useful for someone else:

    edit3: Today I've soldered it like on the picture. Problem is not solved, but now, if I plug in the device on a computer or on the charger, it shows up the USB-symbol and asks for the connection mode (mass storage or PC suite).
    I think I've made something wrong with the GND connection, because it came to my mind later, someone mentioned here, that GND is not USB-GND!

    doesn't matter.
    usb data lines are LVD* type so GND noise is rejected.
    but BGND** != GND because between is placed a resistor for current sensing, used by BQ27200 chip

    * LVD low voltage differential
    ** BGND battery ground

    I have a different issue with the usb port and wanted to see if you guys could help..

    One of the chip is gone from the board near the usb.. and I don't know what it is and the value of it.

    Could someone give me that info and maybe even tell me where to get a new chip

    See photo

    So.. it is not a resistor afterall but a SMD ceramic capacitor.. On the schematic it is F5300 marked with a value of 2.0A, but what is that mean? What SMD capacitor I needed?

    I personally would have guessed it to be a diode, but your schematic is showing it as a capacitor? 2.0A makes sense for a diode, being the amperage it can handle at 5v before it blows. A capacitor would be listed in Farads (or micro/pico Farads in this case).

    Are you sure it's not a diode? Diode would make a lot more sense given it's location.

    An example replacement would be something like this. That one comes in 8 or 12mm (though I'm sure you can find something similar in the proper packaging/spacing with minor searching on other sites).

    Hey Woody, thanks for the reply

    I don't know... I was reading that it maybe a ceramic capacitor, but I am not really sure..

    The symbol on the schematic don't make sense.. I have attached the part of the schematic I am looking at...

    It is the one circle (squared) in red.. it said F5300 (the position code on the board) and 2.0A...

    It doesn't really make sense. A capacitor would look like the others in the diagram (C5301, for example), but you'd think it if were a diode it would look like the one shown near it (N5300). Are you sure these are position codes? It seems awfully convenient that all the things labeled with a C are capacitors... I'm thinking it may be more a part reference list.

    In any case, the only thing I can think of that would list amperage would be a diode. Capacitors would be in Farads (27pico, 100nano?). If these aren't location codes, maybe the F stands for fuse? Do they make ceramic SMT fuses?

    Turns out they do. Here's a 2.0A at 24V. Just find a 2.0A at 5V and I'll be that's your candidate. That could also explain it "evacuating" the board when overloaded?
