greetings. I am in the process of sourcing a board for my LG 50" plasma, and I have a question regarding part numbers. This board, the main, has 3 numbers - two labels and one masked. When I do the search I find that sometimes one may be correct but not another. For example, the EBR number may match, but not the EBT or EAX numbers (or some other combination - which leads to a large number of possible variations).
The question, then, is which numbers matter, and which don't? Do I need to match all three? Are certain numbers critical and others simply workable/swappable variants? Is there even a generalizable answer to this question, or do I need to check every variant individually?
This particular board seems hard to find, so I hope I don't have to match all three.
A related question: is there a list of sources for boards/parts that has been found by people's experience to be reputable/reliable? The only places that I have found this board are sources with a pretty crappy web sites, with little or no info on where the parts came from, whether tested, returns, etc.. Makes me pretty nervous. Fortunately, I'm not in a big hurry for the part.
Any thoughts or help is greatly appreciated.
