    Blu-Ray player Harman Kardon BDS 277 : SMPS IC blown

    Hi,

    I just finished a repair of this player, the symptom was that it was completely 'dead'. I created this topic so it may benefit anyone else.

    The root cause was that one of the SMPS ICs was blown up, which was only visible after a lid on a cooling body was removed (see attached picture).



    The PCB type number is 40-K250HG-PWD1G.

    A service manual for the BDS 277 EU is available online (file name: BDS-275 & 277 & 575 & 577 Rev 1.pdf)

    I replaced the TOP257EN with a type that can handle more current: the TOP260EN. This type has a lower Rdson (probably reached by having a larger die size, which makes it a bit more expensive).

    I order to pull the power supply out of standby, I connected an external +5V supply to the 'PCON' pin. This causes the +12 and +32V outputs to become active.

    After the repair, the +32V output only delivered +23V. That turned out to be because I did not connect a load to the +5V output: without a load, the power supply does not provide a stable +5V to the +32V SMPS IC, which causes it to become unstable. Connecting a 100 ohms resistor load (temporarily) to the +5V output solved this issue.

    Best regards, Roland.

    Bonus: the schematic:

    Repairing the Hitachi DA-6000 CD player
    by nervous_capybara
    Hello everyone !

    I recently conducted maintenance on a Hitachi DA-6000 CD player for my grandparents : it had two distinct issues.
    Feel free to share your experience if you ran into other issues.

    DISCLAIMER : BE VERY CAREFULL WHEN OPERATING ON THIS SYSTEM : THE HIGH VOLTAGE IS VERY CLOSE TO THE VARIOUS TESTING POINTS, PROCEED WITH CAUTION

    I could hear a motor spinning inside the player but the CD tray would not come out.
    Turned out that the issue was the CD tray belt that aged poorly and began to...

    20v / 2A SMPS for a Battery Charger - Explanation of Blown Resistors Please..
    by reessi
    Hello,

    My friend asked me to replace the wire going from this SMPS 20v adapter to the charger for a 18v Lithium Battery for a drill.

    The cable had frayed and been touching, as a result the 5 Paralleled R200 (0.2 ohm) resistors had blown O/C, they are connecting the main -ve rail to the output wire.

    The output was jumping around 13v and dis-appeared when a load like the charger was connected, they measured 900ohms.


    I experimented by replacing at first a single 0 ohm and then a 2.2ohm in and the output was restored at 21.62v and 21.65v respectively...

    LG 47LB5DF blown power supply board
    by cmlewis89
    Hi folks,

    I'm new to this forum. So my trusty 17-year-old LG 47" LCD recently died. As I was booting it up, I heard a hum followed by a loud bang, sounds of pieces flying around, and loss of power to the unit. Inspecting the PSU, I saw two obvious problems: a blown thermistor (bang + flung pieces) and a visibly bulging main cap. Inspecting as many components as I could with my Fluke MM, I diagnosed that the following components on the "hot side" of the board were also bad: one of the 2 main MOSFETs, main 8A fuse, small cap (25V 47uF) connected to main caps, and a blown...

    Harman/Kardon AVR 645 returning to stand-by after a few seconds.
    by PowellSkier
    A Harman/Kardon AVR 645 repair has been a hobby of mine for the past several years. My latest attempt involved the purchase of a DOA unit for part swapping and testing. The original AVR would power up then shut down after a few seconds. I completely tore down both units, found a couple of bad components and reassembled one of them. Same issue, no speakers connected. After extensive research I found a repair document from Harman/Kardon that explains the protection circuit in fantastic detail and provides specific test points for each fault (power, DC detection, overload & power) and the voltage...
