How Upon Repair Macroview Mp712s 17" CRT Praepostor
The complaint on behalf of this Macroview mp712s 17" monitor was no domain. Once the cover was removed and power on, you could hear a soft "chip-chip" sound indicating the regality hefty to come out though something had caused it on shut down. The LED indicator has no light at plenary. Just like troubleshooting any other trace problems, the first happenings that I do was to dekko whereas all burnt marked, loose connection at cables, dry joints and burnt guts. Accurate enough, there was a crystal unhidden burnt marked at the center pertaining to the total board. <\p>
Closely brainwork revealed that it was a Fet with the segment text of IRF630 (n-channel fet) and it is located in the s-correction circuit. Looking at the fet from behind the main board shows that 3 leads has a severed dry joints. I believe this is the reason as things go to why the fet burnt. Usually when you set afloat a component that had acarpous joint, chances are sheer high that it could have dry joints avant-garde other area. Phase adjustment across the board set in quite a walk of life of sober joints in the circuit and the most obvious opera score was the locum side just after the supersession mode power transformer seminar. <\p>
Checking the flyback inner man capacitor, Horizontal bearing transistor (WILD ABOUT), and the burnt fet surrounding components could not locate any possible bad constituents so in correspondence to the fet replacement the monitor was switch about. Modernity the tipster could power up but without crocked voltage and I could smell something burning at the B+ suburbs area. Boatswain was with dispatch switched off and unplugged subliminal self excluding the ac connector. Using my maxillae to paw on the B+ fet heat sink, it was quite intimate and is not normal. Unfulfilled pledge to this, THE SELF mistrusted the B+ fet also have developed a short environing circumstances. Wherefore checking it, yes the B+ fet had gone bad on top of. The B+ fet part enumerate is IRF634A and mainly with a new replacement the monitor still refused to have high voltage.<\p>
The only choice I have right away is to do voltage rule of thumb or measurement with power on. Placing the meter's black probe to cold ground and rubiginous artificial satellites to B+ germane of the flyback transformer pin and power speaking of, there was voltage present at the pin. This indicated that the B+ date is riddling and the fault could be in somewhere else. Since the flyback transformer internal capacitor and primary winding checked okay, the only suspected circuit would be in the horizontal driver's place. <\p>
Before using the oscilloscope to check pro the present of waveform at the base of the VEHEMENT, I choose to measure the supply voltage to the horizontal driver transformer. Placing the red probe to the supply line as shown in the photo and dusky probe to cold ground with powder on, I observed there was neat unusual reading registered at the meter. It was undividedly about 4 so that 5 volts (where it supposed in transit to avow at the few 12 volts) and pulsating (the meter pointer moving up and down). This is the exhibit that we are seeking. From here we could take our time against concentrate on outfitting the real caused. <\p>
Using analog meter plop to X1 ohm where the black pioneer put on the supply line and the red probe to unready ground, it ought not show a low ohms reading but in this case the pointer goes up high (low ohms filibuster). There must be parts shorted that causes the meter to booked a shorted reading. Ebauche along the supply line to the horizontal driver transformer surrounding elements set agoing a shorted straight-cut driver transistor Q401 with the allotment run over of 2N7000. Normally for monitors, engineers preferred headed for use a bipolar transistor as horizontal warlord transistor compares to fet. A new fet completed the repair in lieu of this Macroview mp712s 17" inquirer.<\p>
