    OS-CON units on scanner CCD assembly

    In a UMAX Gemini D-16 scanner, there were Sanyo OS-CON capacitors on the CCD assembly.

    I think such units were used to keep the CCD and its A/D converters (and other analog circuitry) voltage rails at a very low noise level (otherwise it would affect the scanned image), and possibly, as coupling units in the analog section as well.

    Has anyone seen other scanner CCD assemblies with OS-CON units?
    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.

      What are these components that detect paper in a fax scanner

      PROBLEM SOLVED
      I DIDN'T REALISE MY SMALLEST SOLDERING TIP COULD JUST FIT BETWEEN THESE COMPONENTS.
      I MANAGED TO REMOVE THEM WITH NO DAMAGE TO THE BOARD AND I HAVE MY INTENDED END RESULT.

      On a Possio PM70 portable fax machine which has a scanner that detects when you push a piece of paper into the scanner slot.
      It is these two small (3mm long) components that detect the paper and start the scanner feed motor which pulls the paper into the scanner.
      (These are on the circuit board for the keypad and not the main board)

      I want to disable these as...

      Denon AVR-X3600H No sound even to pre outs in direct analog mode. Help please!
      by FuzzyOwl
      Hi, I have a Denon AVR-X3600H I'm trying to repair. I have no electronics repair experience but I have a multimeter, service manual and a will to fix it (https://device.report/m/d5de8c00e617...f63147aba9.pdf)

      Everything seems to work except for no sound even through the pre outs. However I will get sound using Zone 2 pre outs.

      Only digital symptom I can tell is it will soft lock when in the Speakers/Test Tone menu and be unable to adjust +/- db during the test tone.

      I've followed the trouble shooting guide, audio check...

      lowest current galvanometer/analog meter (passively powered!)
      by eccerr0r
      Most analog meters are actually current driven - a current is needed to deflect the pointer full scale. They can be lots of different values. There are ones that can take several amperes to swing the pointer as they have internal shunts.

      On the other hand there are many that are rated in microamps for the intent that they draw as little power as possible from the devices under test. Some are 1mA, 500µA, 200µA, 100µA, and the ubiquitous 50µA frequently used in analog VOMs. There are even 20, 25, 30 µA and even down to 10µA. Been collecting a bunch of different ratings and...

      Lenovo Thinkpad X230T Convertible - display assembly and touch digitizer
      by ElectricDoodler
      I need the schematics and boardview for the display assembly and touch digitizer for an X230T convertible tablet from Lenovo. Would anyone happen to have them?

      I have one in perfectly working condition, and I've been primarily using it as a drawing tablet for a while. But the CPU is showing its age with it not being able to handle larger canvases, so I would like to remove the display assembly and use it as a USB drawing tablet, and I need to verify the pin-layouts of the touch digitizer to do so.

      Bearcat 300 scanner no display, has audio and squelch repair
      by CapLeaker
      I found an old Bearcat 300 scanner that had no display, but the audio and squelch worked, over at my workplace. This unit has a lot of hours on it. It had some capacitor replacements and other mods done to it too before I found it. To troubleshoot this problem, the usual is to check the +25v and -30V and replace C98 on the main board. That should fix it. There is also a case of a shorted button board (just unplug that ribbon cable and the display should work again). Spoiler alert! Was not the case on this one.

      My display didn't work, because I had a missing -10V on the display...
