    CRT Oscilloscope repair

    I received two GW Insteak GOS-622G 20Mhz Analog CRT oscilloscopes to repair. both have shorted transistors and fried resistors in Y plate drive circuit.

    since both have same issue, I want to find if this common issue with this scope or any other cause. here I attached schematic of Y output circuit.


    C2570 Transistor. this is Gigahertz range low power transistor (VCBO-25V, VCEO-12V, 50mA) for use in VHF/UHF range. but, that transistor here in the circuit of 160V supply. both scopes have both this transistor fried.

    Transistors with heatsink - 2SB648A, 2SD668A. each pair. one scope has one pair shorted and other with another side. not same (channel)

    2SA1206 transistor also shorted in same side.

    Could C2570 transistor cause issue?
    Anyone experienced with these type of scope repairs... ?

    in the circuit, I checked all other parts. resisotrs within value. caps, diodes. everything fine.

    Fixing the Charge Circuit of the Batteries of the DC Motor
    by Astonished
    Hi friends of electronics

    What you see in the video and pictures attached is the circuit for charging the batteries of a DC motor.

    The problem is that this circuit cannot charge the batteries (3 1800mAH NiMH batteries) any more. When the circuit was OK, its green LEDs lit up one at a time to show that the batteries have charged more. But now that the circuit is flawed, LEDs light up as you see in the video and at the same time successive beeps are heard.

    Please help me fix this circuit.

    Lenovo L490 Ram voltage circuit malfunction
    by rddube
    Hello friends,

    Looking for some guidance here. The RAM voltage circuit on this motherboard keeps burning out PU301 which is a RT8231AGQW. Copy of the board with the burnt chip attached with some voltage measurements and copy of the schematics also included.

    I think I've checked almost every component in the circuit, but when I change the RT8231, the laptop starts I have 1.2V on the inductor for about 10 seconds and then the RT8231 goes south and no more voltage on the inductor. All other voltages on the laptop are good, this is the only one conking out for a reason I...

    Short Circuit tester
    by Tarot Superstars
    Hello.
    I have seen a short circuit tester made with 3 * 9V batteries, a voltage limiter component and a resistor connected to the probes of a multimeter.
    The theory is that the meter becomes sensitive enough to read very low resistances and the lowest resistance to ground on a circuit is likely to be a short circuit in that area.

    Need advice testing a samsung power supply board with scope
    by repair-it
    I am attempting to test a samsung power supply board to verify the pfc ic is working. I am powering up the board with my isolation transformer. The board turns on fine but when I attempt to connect the ground for the scope probe, it trips out the isolator. I was taught not to 'float my scope' so I am wondering if I should test without connecting the ground lead or would that be asking for trouble? Not sure how else to test, I don't have a portable scope. I could plug direct to mains power but that would bypass the safety factor.

    MSI B250 Gaming M3 Short circuit in CPU power supply circuit
    by M1NEBLANK SHOW
    Hello. MSI B250 Gaming M3 board, short-circuit on the power supply. Found a problematic mosfet VQ1
    (N-PK616BA_PDFN8-HF) soldered it out - short circuit is gone. I replaced VQ1 + VQ5 (N-PK632BA_PDFN8-HF). VQ1 was replaced with PK618. After starting attempt VQ1 is lit again. What can be the problem? In the driver?
