Overvoltage (12v) in Upboard - How to recover data

pramon

Hi,

I, unfortunately, overvoltaged the board with 12v. I was able to boot a couple of times but now the screen appears completely black all the time when I power it. I noticed that when I booted the consumption was 2Amps and now it just consumes 1 amp.

I found two questions about the same topic https://forum.up-community.org/discussion/2069/now-that-i-fried-my-only-up-board , https://forum.up-community.org/discussion/comment/8806#Comment_8806 and it seems that there is not any possibility to recover the board.

I am trying to read how to (somehow) recover the information in the eMMC. is it possible? I hope there is a way of entering to some recovery mode with minimal usage to read the eMMC content.

Any advice will be appreciated.

EDIT: I am trying to move the post to the right forum but I cannot, I am referring to this version of UpBoard https://www.mouser.es/ProductDetail/AAEON-UP/UP-CHT01-A22-0432-A11?qs=XeJtXLiO41S0JpGxYUwwTg==&vip=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwpfHzBRCiARIsAHHzyZp5Xa62d5NyrGmaaJTqPYxNenGVujjHTFcOzXlk02nNI2dJcbBT8uQaAuaZEALw_wcB

Hi @pramon

I am afraid that, if you have given that much voltage, you have severely damaged the board and you won't be able to recove/use the board normally.

The only way would be to de-solder the eMMC and re-solder on another UP Board, but you would need to specific equipment to do that.

Unfortunately, recovering data from an UpBoard fried by overvoltage can be incredibly challenging, bordering on impossible in most cases.
