Robert,Thanks for effort on this, my PA10 cord got frayed and looks like the brief short took out the DS2105. I opened up the power supply and I do not see the Zener and resistor internal to the supply maybe they moved that circuitry into the laptop. In my PA10 the DS2105 appears to be wired without any supply to it atleast internal to the power supply.The Zener that you mentioned was it internal to the power supply or did you trace it to within you laptop?ThanksMike



Respected Robert !

I have accidently shorted the centeral pin with the inner barel of my PA-10 and now this adapter is not working.

Kindly guide me to resolve this problem because i am am very much interested to repair this myself!



Impatiently waiting for your reply!

Looks like this thread is regaining some life...if there's still anyone interested in my original source for reading the chip, I'll dig through my old files and see if I still have it, I pretty much had the entire command structure written up in code so it shouldn't be too hard for someone else to finish it. Maybe I'll even whip up a new version. Let me know.
