    Question about heat

    Hello,

    I was watching this video in which he jumps the first two DC mosfets because he gets 0v after the first one.

    However, when he looks at the board with his thermal camera, nothings heats up.

    He then says that he expected something to heat up.

    TLDR:
    My question is, what does it mean if the vram around the GPU heat up after jumping the first DC mosfets?

      Short circuit on VRAM high side power supply.

          Mounting and Handling Guidelines for TO220 TO220F TO247 Cases / Packages

          The TO220, TO220F and TO247 are the popular packages for power devices because of their versatility and ability to dissipate moderate amounts of heat. This application note describes the basic guidelines for handling power MOSFETs in TO220, TO220 and TO247 packages shown in Figure 1. Please note that only mechanical and soldering guidelines are covered here. Additional precautions are required for isolating high voltage rated devices to meet safety regulations.

          Harman Kardon sub TS11 (ds15 amplifer) blows fuse and mosfets
          by BlackScreen_22
          Hi, I'll start by saying that I'm not an expert and I've reached a point where I don't know what to try/do anymore...
          Starting from the beginning: I opened this subwoofer for the first time with a very strong smell of burnt electrical components, I realize that on the amplifier board there is a hole between V+ OUT and GND about the size of a finger, the damaged components were the shorted mosfets, two damaged zener diodes and two capacitors. I bought everything, I fixed the hole by cutting the pcb and putting a piece of a perforated board.
          I had no problems connecting mosfets and capacitors,...

          Intel D865PERL - no Vcore after replacing MOSFETs and MOSFET drivers
          by kotel studios
          Hi,

          Finally got time to fix this board up.
          At first it didn't give any POST codes. Turns out it was an unsupported Celeron D cpu. After dropping in an Celery 2.6gHz the CPU came out of reset with clock signal, but still no post codes. For a while it did work when I applied pressure to the ADP3168 chip, but on next reboot the MOSFETs started to burn. Then I left it as is for months.

          Now I came back prepared. Replaced the bad MOSFETs and the ADPxx18k drivers. Now I don't get any MOSFETs blowing up issues anymore. But sadly, the Vcore is missing. The whole VRM isn't...

          Gainward Phantom GTX 980 - mosfets w/ integrated driver NCP5369
          by flerre
          Hi!

          Managed to get a Gainward Phantom GTX 980 in an auction for a bin with components.
          No video out so I started fault finding and found a blown fuse for 3 mosfets. Started checking for shorts and found what I think is a short through all of those 3 mosfets; 0.1 ohms between "VIN" input and "VSWH" output. All mosfets in this gpu are the same ones (NCP5369) with integrated drivers and when I tried measuring the other ones through these ports they were somewhere in the kilo-ohms range.

          So, could I safely assume all of these 3 mosfets are...

          kenwood kr-6030 Mosfets?????
          by DrDos
          Hello everyone, I have decided to try and replace the mosfets in my power amp (the one with relay and left and right sides) on my kenwood kr-6030. I'm trying to get the A side of my speakers working. I have replaced all the caps in the power board and I thought why not change the mosfets. They seem to be working since I have great music coming out of the B side speakers and since I am not an electronic guru (but I am learning) I don't want to make any mistakes. The mosfets I have are listed A913 so I guess 2sa913 and 2sc1913. Can't really find those in mouser or digikey at least with the info...
