4.P221 Power Supply Series Fault Repair Method
4.1 P221/2C Power Supply Troubleshooting Method (Visual Inspection)
PCB Visual Inspection: First, visually inspect the surface of electronic components (such as MOS transistors, fuses, large capacitors, transformers, etc.) and check the following locations for noticeable burn marks or spark marks between the components and the heat sink: RLY1, NT1/NT2, BD1/BD3, Q86/Q22, Q21/Q23, F1, C23/C68, etc., as shown in the figure.

Next, visually inspect the SMT and solder surfaces for any burnt electronic components or copper-plating spark marks, as shown in the figure.

4.2 P221/2B Power Supply Troubleshooting Method (Visual Inspection)
First, visually inspect the electronic components (MOSFETs, fuses, large capacitors, transformers, etc.) to check for obvious signs of burning or arcing between the components and the heat sink, such as RLY1, NT1/NT2, BD1/BD3, Q86/Q22, Q21/Q23, F1, C23/C68, etc., as shown in the figure.

Next, visually inspect the SMT/surface-mount component side/solder side for any burnt electronic components or signs of arcing between components and copper traces, as shown in the diagram.

4.3 PCB visual inspection method
Next, visually inspect the DIP component side/solder side for any burnt electronic components or signs of arcing between components and copper traces, as shown in the diagram.

Note: The calibration parameters of the downstream MCU chip are embedded in the chip and cannot be replaced during maintenance, as doing so would erase them.
4.4 PCB Multimeter Testing Method:
MOSFETs, rectifier bridges, and ordinary transistors are tested using a multimeter's diode test mode. A voltage drop of 0.3-0.6V between two pins indicates a good component; otherwise, it is considered a breakdown failure, as shown in the diagram:

4.4.1 PCB Multimeter Testing Method:
Resistance measurement method: Connect the black probe to ground and use the red probe to measure the resistance between the gate (G) terminal of the SR tube and GND. The lowest resistance reading, especially if it is below 1.5 kΩ, indicates a device failure, as shown in the diagram on the right.

4.4.2 PCB Multimeter Inspection Method:
MCU Chip Programming
Measure the voltage drop using the diode test mode:
A voltage drop of 0.5~0.8V indicates the chip is functioning correctly; otherwise, the chip is faulty. Measure the power supply voltage using voltage mode: 3.3V is standard; otherwise, the power supply is defective, as shown in the figure below.

4.4.3 PCB Multimeter Testing Method:
First, check whether the working voltage of each group is within the normal range. The auxiliary power supply circuit must be functioning properly; other circuits can only function when the VCC voltage is within specification. The power supply section operates at high voltage, so please be extremely careful during operation. Non-professionals should not disassemble the equipment! The voltage values of each circuit are shown in the figure below:

4.4.4 PCB Multimeter Testing Method:
First, check whether the working voltage for each group is within normal limits. The auxiliary power supply circuit must be operating on VCC before other circuits will operate. The power supply unit operates at a high voltage; operate with caution. Non-professionals should not disassemble the device! The voltages of each circuit are shown in the diagram:

4.4.5 PCB Multimeter Testing Method:
First, check whether each circuit's operating voltage is within the normal range. The auxiliary power supply circuit must be working correctly and providing the VCC voltage for other circuits to operate. The power supply unit operates at high voltage, so exercise caution during operation. Non-professionals should not disassemble the equipment! The voltage values for each circuit are shown in the figure below:

4.5 PCB Multimeter Testing Method:
First, check if the working voltage of each group is within the normal range. The auxiliary power supply circuit must be functioning properly; other circuits can only operate once the VCC voltage is standard. The power supply contains high voltage; please be extremely careful during operation. Non-professionals should not disassemble it!
Note:
(1) Please refer to Section 3.1 for the circuit diagram of the P221C series power supply.
(2) The testing and repair methods for the P221C series power supply are the same as those for the P221B power supply; please refer to Section 4.4 PCB Multimeter Testing Method.
(3) The secondary main control chip of the P221 series power supply cannot be replaced arbitrarily, as this chip contains power supply current and voltage calibration parameters. The main control chip only supports firmware upgrades. If the secondary main control chip needs to be replaced, power supply current and voltage calibration tests must be performed to ensure it meets factory standards.
(4) After the power supply repair is completed, please use an electronic load for a 15-minute full-load test to confirm that the power supply is working normally (you can also use a mining machine for aging testing).
(5)The Shenma Miner V8 control board (with a dedicated power supply unlocking program) can be used to unlock the power supply for load testing.
(6)The P221C/B and P222C/B power supplies have basically the same structure, with only slight differences in output voltage and power (P221C/B is 12V, P222C/B is 14.5V). For detailed information, please refer to the technical specifications on the product nameplate.
