    LG LST-5100P - quick repair

    Today, I managed to quickly fix an LG LST-5100P STB .

    Measuring the supply rail before the two 5V regulators had shown it was way down, just like in a Teac DV-B300, and was caused by C116 (LG) losing its capacitance without bulging (the same happened with C6 in the Teac).

    Replacing all of the electrolytic capacitors except for the Daewoo/Partsnic RSM Series units (after the linear regulators - the 400V unit was also good, along with the Samyoung SRA/GSS series unit) fixed this STB.

    C116 (before inductor connected to +5V regulators) and C118 (before inductor connected to +5V regulators) were Samyoung KME (general-purpose) units, of which they were not designed for high frequency use .
    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.

    Corsair CX750M [Model 75-002019] - burned output toroid inductor
    by momaka
    Looks like I may need a little help from the PSU experts (or anyone really! ) I have a Corsair CX750M (Model 75-002019) that I picked up for free about 4 years ago. This is the PSU:



    So here’s what’s strange about this one: it appears to work normally (normal output voltages) and any PC is stable with it. However, after a while (typically 10-20 minutes, but time can vary depending on the load), there is a sweetish smell of burned magnet wire insulation emanating from the PSU. Upon opening the PSU after this happened (many times), I was able to confirm...

    Lenovo S145 -15iwl vcore inductor warm.. looking with oscilloscope there is a spike.
    by Bartoloni
    Hi, i have a Lenovo S145 that after 20 seconds shutdown and restart (it's working correctly on thse 20 seconds)
    everything seems ok, but on Vcore inductor ( this is an i3 with just 1 switching power supply for CPU)

    there is an output to teh CPU with a spike.. seems that inductor can't handle the input...
    replaced the capacitor (330) and the inductor (R15) without any change
    any idea? very thank you!

    input of the inductor seems as usual... only strange thing is that the upper/lower voltages seems to be 21V (main power line is 19.3) ... but not sure this...

    How to read inductor specs?
    by badcap111
    I have a broken samsung galaxy s10 with missing inductor. I want to replace the missing inductor and I have found some vendors. But I don't understand how to read the specifications of the inductor. The specs are:

    INDUCTOR-SMD;470NH,20%,2520,T0.8,0.029OH

    I understand that the inductor is 470 nH with 20% margin, and the size is 2520 or 1008 (imperial measure), but what do T0.8,0.0290OH mean? I can't find any explanation on the web.

    Blown Inductor on WD My Passport
    by silver60618
    Hi Guys, my WD My Passport drive powers on, then powers off. Ive taken out the motherboard and identified a blown Inductor. Im trying to recover my data only

    Reading between leads show nothing. If I removed this Inductor, what would be a suitable replacement? am I correct that its a ferrite Inductor is to just filter noise?
    Ive seen people just bridge them, any harm in replacing it with a differnt value Inductor?

    Lastly am I correct in thinking there is no polarity on the smd component?

    Thanks!...

    Nvidia GTS 250M Laptop graphics - Inductor and Capacitor values
    by rashidjafar
    I am looking for capacitor & Inductor values for my TOSHIBA Qosmio X500-110 - mobile graphics - Nvidia GTS 250M Laptop.

    Values for :-
    =========
    PC43 : Capacitor [3x1.5mm]
    PL7 : Inductor [2x1mm]
    PC39 : Capacitor [1x0.5mm]

    Any ideas would be appreciated.




    I can get Capacitor values from nearby components but wanted to know the max ratings also I dont have equipment to measure inductors....
