Power On Voltages (Xbox One X)

6min

If you have all the standby voltages, the next steps is to press the power button, which sends the Power Switch Enable pin low on the Southbridge (called the KIC, specifically the System Management Controller part of the chip called SMC), which in turn enables a few more regulators to power up the rest of the system, and send the white light on.

In short the Southbridge listens for the power enable signal going low from a button press, and enables many output regulators for the GFX, CPU Cores, Ethernet, HDD, ODD and more.

I will fill out more info for these stages when I get time but here is an overview.

VREG_PWRGPA_EN

U64 MP2949A PMIC (Memory)
