Hi everyone,
I have a little problem witch my DSO quad (hard v2.7) : the red LED stay on all the time, like I was charging my DSO. Connecting it to my computer or to another charger doesn’t change anything.
On the other hand everything seems to work properly : measures are OK, charging OK, signal generator OK, firmware update OK …
If someone has an idea, I reflash the FW and I studied the schematic but didn’t find something that could explain it.
Thanks
Maybe chip U14 (LTC4054ES5-4.2) have failed. Desolder it and see if LED will not stay on.
Today I have replaced chip U14. Now DSO Quad works OK.
Hi and thanks for your reply,
After your post I have thought that could be the reason of my LED problem. Moreover, I remember that charging semmsed very quick, that confirms there is a problem with U14.
I desoldered it this morning and LED no more light except when the DSO starts (which is the good comportement).
I will order a new LTC4054 and I’ll tell you if it’s fixed 
I finally received my LTC4054, replaced it aaaannndddd … it works !! 
Thank you very much !
I have the same problem.
A new DSO Quad, just a few day of ussage and suddenly I noticed that the RED LED is always ON and drain the battery quickly. As I need the DSO as ppocket, battery driven Osciloscope, It is a big problem for me.
I think this should be a reason to replace the DSO at the reseller, what do you think?
(Another issue with the DSO, one probe has wrong connector from beggining and needs to be replaced)
I have a DS2032.7b (as listed on the PCB itself)
Is it still safe to use the unit “as normal” without the U14 / LTC4054?
Will the unit simply not charge, or are there other more perilous effects?
Considering the function diagram of the original component “UN8HX” that I found on the internet… You’ll have to google for “UN8HX” yourself as seeedstudios apparently blocks links.
I am assuming the only real effect is that it won’t charge…
