    DELTA DPS-386AP-1, missing voltages...

    Hi to all... This is my first post (apart the presentation )
    I've found this forum searching for info for some chips on a power supply that i'm trying to repair, and seem a good place to learnn something (and maybe reapir my èsu )
    I have this SMPS psu of an hp deskjet plotter that is active PFC, and have 2 different trasformers to do different voltages, one do low tensions (+3.3, +5) and the other do the 'high' tensions (12,24,36). The high tension side isn't working.
    First of all, on the electronic side i've not found anythying wrong/burned (only no tension on the secondary, neither on startup), but i think that the primary of the transformer is gone, as on one pin i can't find continuity with any other pin.
    This is the first time that i try to reapir a 'recent' power supply (while in past i've successfully repaired different 'standard' smps). Apart active pfc circuit that i've marginally understood, i've not still fully understood the primary of the 'high voltage' tansformer. It has 2 primary coils (with 3 pins), and 2 mosfets driving it. One pin of the primary (pin marked 6 on the pcb) is connected to gnd and has no continuity to any other pin (strange), another pin on the primary side (pin 7) is connected to the drain of a mosfet q14 (and the source of the mosfet goes to gnd throught a resistor), the last pin (pin 3) goes to the source of the second mosfet q13 (and the drain goes to ~+300v, here in italy we have 220 main).
    Why there are 2 mosfets driving it?
    It's possible that only the transformer is damaged, as i've not found any other problem (mosfet, diodes, etc)? This would be the first time that i find an smps trasformer damaged...

    Really thanks for the help!

    Forgive me, the unconnected pin was only the shield of the transformer that goes to gnd...

      Hello there
      Did you ever solve this mystery? I have the same problem where the high voltage side will drop out under load.. it prevents the hard drive and pumps from fully starting up.

      I did find that an improperly inserted nozzle cart will cause it to not turn on at all.. but after fixing that it still only works sometimes.

        Hello,

        I have the same fault with this power supply, low voltage or none on the high side, did you find the cause of this?

        I have also checked components in and out of the board, but no luck.

        I would be very interested to know.

        Many thanks

          I have the same problem. Does anyone know the reason? Has anyone found the scheme of the board?

                I fixed mine by replacing the main switching transistor.

                    I've been searching for a schematic for a couple of years with no luck. I sure wish I had one good lead where to find one.

                      MSI Z390-A PRO missing VCORE voltages
                      by karlp028
                      I've got an MSI Z390-A Pro motherboard that starts up fine, but it's missing the VCORE (and VGT) voltages. All of the other voltages are present (e.g. VCCSA, VCCIO) and I know the CPU (i7-9700k) is good. Now, the original PWM controller (UP9521P) had an internal short and I replaced it with a new one. All of the enable signals look good. The problem seems to be the PWM signals going to the MOSFET drivers. I checked them with an oscilloscope and they are all flat 1.5V with no pulses. I don't know why this would be and I'm not sure where to look next.

                      Lenovo 300-15IBR - No SYSON, no SUSP#, bunch of missing voltages
                      by mat2k
                      Hello, I've been struggling with this one today. I'm troubleshooting a Lenovo 300-15IBR (board BMWC1/BMWC2 NM-A471) that turns on the power LED and does a bit of fan spin but nothing else. 3v3sb and 5vsb present, no 1.05v, no 1.35vddr, no vcore, no 1.8vsb.
                      BIOS has been reflashed with one I found here, supposedly tested OK by someone else. I don't have an EC programmer unfortunately.
                      I looked around and SYSON is 0v, SUSP# is 0v too. Forcing them to 3v3 enables the 1.35v rail, but the 1.05v and 1.8v rails are still missing (generated by PU704). EN_1P05A signal is 3.3v, and IN_1P05A...

                      Delta Electronics ADP-230JB D missing components - help please
                      by Flash993
                      Hey everyone,

                      So I was trying to troubleshoot my Power Supply (look at the title for brand and model) for my laptop and mistakenly stabbed some components off. I have tried searching for a schematic/diagram but I could not find any at all. If someone has one please post it. I will add a picture of the components missing if someone with a bigger brain or the power supply PCB pictures wants to help me out. Thank you for your time reading my post for help.

                      Calculating ESR from tan delta -- tan delta's dependence on capacitance
                      by Junkrepair
                      I'm finally recapping my Soyo K7VX6 motherboard (aka KT600 Dragon Ultra) and replacing Sacon SZ-series caps. The Sacon SZ datasheet provides a spec for tan delta, but not for ESR, while the candidate replacement caps are specified in terms of ESR.

                      I found this nice little description of the conversion:

                      Calculating capacitor ESR from Tan(delta)
                      https://forum.digikey.com/t/calculat...-from-tan/2633

                      It mentions that a general spec for tan delta has to be adjusted for the specific capacitance before plugging tan delta into the formula...
