VBUS from USB connector on L1: microvia at (5679,1177). On L2 a transition is made to two directly adjacent inner vias at (5689,1157) and (5709,1186). On L5 another transition is made to a new pair of inner vias at (5565,1089) and (5569,1125). On L7 yet another transition to what appears to be a pair of microvias to L8, guessing center coordinates at (5546,1077) and (5546,1108). On L8 this VBUS supply passes through a series component marked "H" before going to the rest of the circuit. After passing through this "H" series component, the fat power trace goes to a polygon on L8 whose bottom y coord is 1041, top y coord 834. This polygon contains pads for 3 caps (other sides remain to be traced) and a microvia at (5592,1034). The left x coord boundary of the polygon is at 5515 where the cap is, or 5474 to the left and up from the cap. The right x coord boundary is at 5627. The big polygon identified in the previous paragraph feeds VBUS power to a 6-pin component that might be the power P-MOSFET for charging. The 4 pins that could constitute the drain output of this big MOSFET land on another polygon which in turns feeds to a 2-pin component: it might be the Schottky diode. Out of the 3 caps connected to what seems to be VCHG (VBUS passed through the "H" component), the lower little seems to go to GND, but where does the upper little go? Apparent microvia from L8 to L7 at (5709,940), on L7 there seems to be a trace going back to L8 at (5663,858) and an inner via at (5675,965). It looks like ICTL net! Now let's trace the other side of the left bigger cap from MOSFET VCHG input. L8 pad center is at (5469,950), on L7 that spot is solid GND fill - consistent with the natural expectation that this cap goes to GND. Let's trace the presumed ICTL net and see if it really is what it seems to be. Inner via at (5675,965) - found it on L2. Microvia to L1 at (2923,1163), on L1 it goes to Iota ball D6 - it is indeed ICTL! Now let's trace the branch from VCHG (VBUS after "H") polygon that starts with L8-L7 microvia at (5592,1034). On L7 it goes to an inner via at (5618,1019) - but no connections are seen on any other layer! Let's try tracing VBUS connection to CP2102. There appears to be an L8-L7 microvia at (5349,1392). On L7 this spot falls on a fat power trace made out of a polygon. This polygon has two visible via holes at (5390,1271) and (5631,1250). It also has spots that may contain hidden microvias back to L8: candidate spots (5459,1177), (5460,1059), (5635,1226). Looking on L8, we see that the L7 via hole at (5631,1250) is likely a microvia back to L8, connecting to the VBUS-after-"H" fat trace, whereas (5390,1271) is probably an inner via. The other 3 spots found from L7 are either false leads or contain microvias to the same power trace on L8, as that's where the coordinates fall. Looking for (5390,1271) inner via on other layers: found it on L2, connects to L2-L1 microvia at (5371,1298). Also on L4: a thick power trace to another inner via at (4031,1549). Let's go back to L2-L1 microvia at (5371,1298): on L1 it is a test point and nothing more. Now let's look for the inner via at (4031,1549): on L2 it connects to L2-L1 microvia at (4000,1563). On L1 this microvia falls into the pad of some 2-pad component to GND, and also goes to another microvia at (4011,1435). On the populated pic, the 2-pad component appears to be a diode, with the cathode connected to the power net (VCHG?) and with the anode to GND. Continuing the trace from L1-L2 microvia at (4011,1435): on L2 there is a power trace to another microvia at (3003,1363). On L1 it goes to Iota ball A5 - it is VCHG. The via hole on L7 at (5631,1250) appears to be an inner via after all: let's look for it on other layers. Couldn't find any connections. Let's try tracing PCHG (ball B5) from Iota: it goes through a 2-pad component (probably the precharge current limiting resistor) centered at (2862,1443) and then to a microvia at (2849,1378). On the populated pic, the 2-pad component is indeed a black resistor, marked "470". Tracing the microvia from L1 at (2849,1378): it goes to an inner via at (2865,1350). Found it on L4: goes to another inner via at (5548,1198). Looking for the new via: found it on L5, goes to another via at (5593,717). Looking for the new via at (5593,717): found it on L7, microvia to L8 at (5514,741). On L8 the microvia lies in the polygon that connects the drain output of the P-MOSFET to the anode of the Schottky diode, matching TI's reference charging circuit.
