    ART710A, RCF monitor speaker schematic/advice please

    HI all

    It's yet another monitor speaker.

    Trying to rebuild the audio circuitry.

    The story so far, after removing loads of glue.

    MOS3 & MOS4, both type IRFB4229, S/C

    Also replaced Gate drive chip for them, U7 type IRS20955S, plus U3 which is same chip type for a different set of FETS.

    Anyone have experience working on this model?

      Require value of R63.

      Measures 2K2 but has been corroded by glue & need to know if it's ok.

          Suspect R63 is correct as there is no real link from it to damaged parts of circuitry.

          Powered speaker by slowly increasing the AV supply using a variac.

          Fully powered, but no audio for around 1 minute, then music from tweeter, but not main driver.

          Shortly after spotted some smoke & hopefully powered off before damage occurred.

          Suspect main driver faulty.

          Tweeter coil measures 5R4

          Drive coil measures 3R3

              A previously found corroded resistor that I must have replaced by error with wrong value.

              R62 which is on the VCC line to U7 is where I went wrong.

              Used a 4K7, but when I compared the mirror circuitry for the tweeter drive value is 47K.

              Replaced with correct value & now main driver producing audio, but the main output FETS getting quite hot.

                  One of the previously replaced FETS had shorted therefore swapped out both plus U7

                      MOS 3 seems to be the FET that keep failing, then DC finds its way to the tweeter, which has in turn blown it.Cannot seem to work out why.

                      Bass driver amp driver circuitry good.

                          The green and red lights are on together.* *Gate pin in Mosfets ate not enabled through IRS20955s...There is 12 volts in irs . The. I changed ADAU1701 but problem did not solve.

                                  Seeking Advice: Repairing Dell U3425WE Monitor with Faulty USB-C/Thunderbolt Ports
                                  by Borse2008
                                  Hi everyone,

                                  Looking for some advice or opinions on what to do with a monitor issue I’ve run into. Apologies in advance is this crossovers a few forum categories.

                                  I have a Dell U3425WE, which I've recently replaced with another model. That said, the original unit is still fully functional in terms of the display — it works perfectly over HDMI and DisplayPort. However, the USB-C and Thunderbolt 4 ports have stopped functioning correctly. The Issue:
                                  • The 90W Thunderbolt 4 port (circled in the photo) no longer charges or powers any device, including laptops or MacBooks.
                                  • There’s

                                  by atunguyd
                                  Ii wonder if anyone can help me. I have a Acer x163w monitor which is not powering up. The PSU main capacitor's one leg had completly come off - I replaced it but the PSU is still not outputting DC. I found the monitor in questions service manual here on manuals lib but the schematic in there is a completely different - the schematic shows no mosfet to drive the transformer while the one I have does use a mosfet - also the schematic shows only one optocoupler but mine has two.
                                  The PSU board is labelled FM-20A02-AAA made by APD as per the image below. I am trying to find a schematic for this...

                                  by momaka
                                  Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...

                                  Schematic request for AOC CQ32G1 or CQ27G1 or Q27G2U monitor
                                  by doorzon
                                  Hi all,

                                  does anyone perhaps have a schematic or service manual for an AOC monitor (1440p) of this type:

                                  CQ32G1
                                  CQ27G1
                                  Q27G2U


                                  They all seem to use a similar video and power board (it has an external power brick).
                                  I've seen various reports of this AOC monitor type that sometimes provides power on logo and display, but most of the time only white back ground.

                                  There are no markings for voltages on the boards and regulator part numbers are a bit elusive to determine the output voltage.
