    TV160 LCD controller tester: Self-powering mod

    So that this test unit can be powered by the LCD controller without requiring an external power supply (it can handle DC input voltages as low as 5V and up to at least 12V), identical low loss Schottky diodes were fitted (cathodes to D2 cathode, one diode anode to LCD interface Pins 1/2 and the other diode anode to Pins 3/4).
    On the LCD interface adaptors, the unmounted B+ diode and RC network for ground loop isolation was shunted to enable the LCD controller to power this test unit.
    Note that the Main B+ from the cathode of D2 is only connected to the inputs of DC-DC converters and nowhere else; D2 anode is connected to the centre pin of the DC input jack which has no other connection.
    My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

      I don't have that TV160, but know what it is. Personally I wouldn't do that mod, because you'd have to make sure that the power from the main board can handle that TV160. What I am saying is that lets say the power source is marginal, it wont power the TV160. The mod may be good for big tv's main boards... dunno...

          why not just tape a powerbank to the back of it??

              ASUS ROG Strix- G513IH-HN008, G513-6050A3249301- MB-A04 (A4) damaged Embedded Controller
              by master3112
              I have an ASUS ROG Strix- G513IH-HN008, motherboard G513-6050A3249301- MB-A04 (A4)

              When I received the device, the device has no function. After an investigation, I found that the PWM CONTROLLER RT6575B (U6100) is getting warm and there is a short circuit at the 3V3 output. This normally supplies 3V3 for the embedded controller IT5571E-128 (U301). When measuring and analyzing with a thermal imaging camera, I found that some components are damaged: SLG4E42553VTR (U8500), IT5571E-128 (U301), LAN RTL8111H (U450), LOGIC 74LVC1G08GW (U1900), RT6575B (U6100) All these components are on...

              OMRON E5CS heater controller Diode identification help
              by lethbrp
              Hi everyone,

              I have a diode that I need help identifying. I've been scouring the web (newbie) can can't seem to find anything. Perhaps I'm looking in the wrong place. Attached is an image of the diode. If you could help me it would be greatly appreciated. Also, an explanation of how to calculate the values would be great.

              Thanks for your help.

              Finding replacement diode iPad Pro 3rd gen A1701
              by asr
              Hello, I am looking for help to replace a damaged diode. The tristar was replaced and a diode was damaged in the process. I have a picture of the diode but dont have an exact donor. I mostly have macbooks for donors and only a few ipad and iphone boards. Diode part number: DSF01S30SCAP
              Im not sure where to find the ipad board number. Anybody have an idea where else this diode is used on other boards? Thanks....

              TV backlight zener diode
              by unimatrix93
              Hello everyone, I'm repairing an LG TV backlight and I noticed some strange behavior when I touching the backlight strip with a missing Zener diode.

              So I replaced the leds on the strips and they seemingly working fine, but soon as I touch the strip which has a missing Zener diode the whole backlight turns off for a few seconds and then turns back on.

              Is this caused by the missing diode? If so what kind of zener diode should I use to replace it?.
              ​​​​
              The led strips has 9 6V leds.

              Help with freemotion incline trainer with controller comm error
              by ronnygracias
              The treadmill was working fine, one day the belt snapped and after checking the unit I also noticed that the display is now showing the Controller comm error. So I opened it up and the treadmill had two boards. One is a power supply board and the other is the motor controller. I noticed there was a mouse nest, so I took power supply board out, cleaned it up, replaced the big capacitor and that did nothing. Then I took apart the motor controller and cleaned that up, and when I plugged it in, it started right up. I thought I fixed it. But when the belt arrived, I installed it and tried to power...
