    How to sweep test an IF filter

    http://youtu.be/psMss8DcuTw

    Also, don't forget to read the video description.
    I did this test on some IF filters I am currently selling at the time on eBay.
    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.

    The bandpass response of that filter looks terrible, probably because the filter was not set up before testing with correct source and load impedances.
    Is it plugged in?

      doesn't appear that the source and load impedances are matched.. what's the working impedance of that filter?

        How Can I test PWM DM0365R?
        by chth96
        Hello
        I have power adaptor(220V/input, 12V 1.2A/output) which has symptom of fluctuating output DC voltage between 11.5V-12.2V.
        So I opened its plastic case and when switched it on, I heard constant tik tik sound from inside its PCB.
        I measured DC voltage between negative and positive pin of the largest capacitor(400v 10uf) and it was measured contant 300V.
        I also measured ESR value of all capacitors and I noticed that one of capacitor(KMG 16v 470uf), which located in the secondary side, have high ESR value(10 ohm),So I replaced it with same specification NXH capacitor....

        test active pfc power with lamp test
        by khelane
        Hello
        I have a big problem and that is that in some cases when repairing active pfc power supplies I cannot work with a test lamp. I can only get help with 5 volts standby and for starting and starting I have to work without a lamp and this way there is a possibility of parts exploding and other parts being added.
        Sometimes with a multimeter test the problems can be reduced to some extent, but I had several cases that had to be tested on and online and recently two varistors exploded. They had terrible resistance because the power supplies were over 800 watts.
        Is there a way...

        Mats / mods: detected and repaired GPU fault. Cant seem to test after!
        by chronic519
        Hello.

        GPU came in, green lines. Spent lots of time using to get the Mats / mods drive working (found on youtube).
        Found issue with a RAM block
        Replaced, green lines gone.
        Trying to test again, assuming getting the false positive. Originally had over 1K on a single bank. Now getting tosses low between banks.
        Used a good card to test and same results low errors 32+.

        I am just search for some form of command to do a full test on the GPU.
        I just ran the mats command with my good GPU and passed after roughly 40 min.
        The repaired one, ran...

        Lg TCon test pins for screen test
        by alltvrepairs
        Hi,
        i have a 65 Panasonic TX-65HX710E using vestel 17MB170 main and Lg tcon.

        Few drops of water fell probably near COF and have no display. Tried removing tabs but no.part of display present as if tcon fuse open. However 12v is present and tcon can be felt warm enough that supplies are present. Backlight and sound ok.

        Anyone knows if this TCon 6870c-0805A has any special test pins for rgb test?

        Appreciate your help....

        Samsung LN40C630K1F LCD TV No Backlights and Flashlight Test Fail
        by signal.quest
        Hi all,

        I have been working on a Samsung LN40C630K1F LCD TV. On power up the backlights only briefly light up when first powered on then they go out (2 seconds to black). The flashlight test also fails. The sound works fine. Please see attached pics.

        I have researched the forums a lot. I have watched the videos of trying to locate the bad CCFL or transformer and bypassing. I can't find any evidence of a bad transformer/CCFL. I verified I get 376V from the big caps to the fuse. I have used a small/cheap oscilloscope and it looks like the MOSFETs on the inverter...
