If we really can disable USB power_in on PCF50633 by setting the registers to appropriate value, I think we are better off without RT9711. So kick it off board and replace it with 0R. Fine! If we still get problems with exploding chips, it really doesn't matter in the end whether RT9711 dies, or PCF50633 blows up. However if we are going to do *any* PCB changes here, I'd strongly suggest to include some advanced OVP for the USB-port (maybe something around a FET with >50V U(d-s max), and a Zener). I feel quite uneasy with this safety headroom of ~1Volt before some crap charger is busting our chips. cheers jOERG
