Hi hello. Need shorting points to enter safemode on this board.
Details:
Main Cpu MAP1602A Maxio
Nands: 2x Longsys YMTC 232L
Interface nvme.
Here is picture:

This SSD looks similar:

https://www.igorslab.de/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/SSD-Naked.jpg

There is an SOT23-5 IC to the right of the Maxio controller. I suspect that it provides the VCC supply for the NAND flash. If so, then you could short its enable pin to ground. This will turn off the NAND supply and cause the controller to panic.

If you want to try this, show me a clearer photo of that IC.

If there is a pullup resistor between the EN pin and VIN, then shorting EN to ground should disable the IC. You could short pins 1 and 2 with a DMM probe tip.

I try, and nothing, can't detect drive, nothing. This IC is 1.8V for maxio chip, but for nands is PMIC
Marking code
EAEHcH or EAERcH

I thought it may be a Silergy IC, but EAExyz is an LDO regulator. I tried FAExyz, but couldn't find anything.

It is FAE:

You could at least determine which test points are connected to ground or the supply rails.

I try, find any datasheet for this IC, and can't find any info.

I normally search for Silergy datasheets as follows:

https://www.google.com/search?q=filetype%3Adoc+OR+filetype%3Apdf+%22absolute+maximum%22+FAExyz+Silergy

Your IC may be a special part that is not available in the retail channel.

It would be SY8686K Marking FAExyz but i never seen any datasheet for this IC.
What can i do, to force ROM on this board!?

Yeah, Great, but as you can see, PMIC supplied SOC in my case SOC is Maxio so if i disable power for SOC this I won't be able to enter ROM mode.

The trick to enter ROM/safe mode (or ERRMOD) in some Samsung SSDs is to short the I2C clock and data pins. You might try to determine if the I2C pins are present at the test points.
