    Ritmo ATX power supply schematic ?

    Guys,

    Does anyone know the schematic of this ATX PSU ?
    abit odd, I can see FET on 3.3V output rail....

    This looks like run-of-the-mill generic low quality PSU, so I am 99.99999% certain you won't find an *exact* schematic for it.

    That said, the three transformers in the middle and SG6105 PWM controller tell me this is just another typical half-bridge topology PSU. So you can grab the schematic off of any half-bridge ATX PSU available online and use it as a *guide*. Here is one I found that is based on a SG6105 PWM IC:

    Again, use this only as a rough guide, and don't expect component values or positions to match. Your PSU should be similar to what is shown on that schematic, but very likely NOT the same.

    You should also notice that there is no second output toroid for the 3.3V rail and no small torroid(s) near the main transformer. This suggests the 3.3V rail is linearly regulated - a cheap method that is very inefficient.

    In my opinion:
    this PSU appears to be very low quality crap. I wouldn't attempt fixing it if I was in your position - not for computer use anyways (I've fixed some similarly crappy power supplies, but only as a learning experience or for fun).

      It's for fun and learning experience.....usually I'll another rectifier SBL2040 and output toroid filter on 3.3V rail....

      Do you reckon it has a secondary rectifier issue ? I measured SBL2040 on 5V rail with DMM diode test mode and got only 0.12V.....that's bad, isn't it ?

        What was the issue with those you had fixed ? secondary rectifier issue ?
        I got it because of shorted FET on motherboard I reckon...

          It's a Linkworld. The LPF2SS model number points to a 300W Linkworld,however I have doubts it can do a watt in spec. (it's beyond the definition of garbage,and not worth anything )

              So what's the faulty of this Ritmo ?
              Is it possible that SB1040 is faulty ?
              I've tested on DMM = 0.17V but when I tried with LED, 1K and 9V battery it's doing normal way of diode...forward bias LED = on...reverse bias...LED is off...

              If this SB1040 is not faulty ...what else can be faulty ?

              it was shorted accidentally between 5 to ground or 12 to ground...and shut off......could be SG6105 ?

                    If the SBL1040 passes the diode test that you did with the LED, then it is NOT faulty. Do the same test with the other diode rectifier (the SBL2040)

                    No.
                    Those controllers (SG6105, TL494, KA7500) are very robust. Only a severe case of run-away 5VSB rail (over-voltage) can damage it, which is very rare. Also, if it was damaged, you'd have very burned spots on the board. I know because I've worked on such PSUs. Typically, the damage looks like this:

                    A lot of things could be wrong, so lets start with some order.

                    First, check mains fuse and NTC thermistor on input, as well as input bridge rectifier (typically 4 diodes on cheap PSUs).

                    If these are okay, next item is plug in the PSU and check the 5VSB rail (purple wire on ATX connector for your PSU) - you should get 5V +/- 0.25V.
                    ...
                    So check these things and we will go from there. Also, we really DO need better pictures to help you troubleshoot this PSU.
                    This one is good (it's helpful):
                    https://www.badcaps.net/forum/attach...1&d=1472539862

                    But this one is useless:
                    https://www.badcaps.net/forum/attach...0&d=1472539862

                    Please make sure your pictures are clear and focused before posting them here. There's no point in posting pictures if we can't see anything on them.

                      I've fixed it already, broken oscillator transistors and FET...all DONE, thanks everyone..

                        Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
                        by Tynan Dill
                        I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

                        Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

                        I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

                        The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

                        With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

                        Assuming...

                        Desoldering gun station modified to use a 18 volt @ 20 amp switching power supply
                        by sam_sam_sam
                        I have wanting to do this project for quite sometime now and I finally found a switching power supply that will work on this desoldering gun station ZD-915 that the original switching power supply took a shit and just was not worth trying to fix it because this switching power is not quite big enough to handle the heater element and the vacuum pump

                        One note when I tested the switching power supply and the voltage control board I noticed that this desoldering gun heat up much faster than the original switching power supply which I was really surprised by to the point that I might buy...

                        by sam_sam_sam
                        I have been working on this concept for quite some time now with limited success but recently I found a switching power supply that is setup for the voltage that this soldering station needs to operate at however it also needs part of the secondary circuit from the original switching power because you need several voltage rails

                        I once tried to get a ZD-915 desoldering station to work on a 18 volt battery power supply but unfortunately things did not go well but I did find a work around but I might try this idea again but going at a little differently more about this another time...

                        by JimBanville
                        The sub developed a constant popping every couple seconds from woofer and power LED flickering with nothing but wall AC connected. Connecting an audio cable didn't change anything. It doesn't play but a second or two of audio in between the pops.
                        Opened it up and discovered the power supply is making a faint clicking or ticking sound.
                        I measured the amp's output to the woofer and it pulses up to 50mv DC to be driver. The pulses coincide with the power supply ticking/clicking.
                        I measured the power supply output going to the amp board and it too has this pulsing. Voltage cycles...
