    How a plasma display panel (PDP) works

    I just posted a thread in the FAQ section on how a plasma display panel works. Hopefully this will help others in understanding how I diagnose problems with them and what goes wrong when faults occur.

    What parts can be salvaged from a plasma with a damaged display panel?
    by SurrealMustard
    I recently found myself the proud owner of a later-model Samsung plasma (the PN59D7000 for those keeping score at home) whose panel was, unfortunately, damaged in transport. I'm now preparing to part it out, but am curious as to whether or not any damage would have come to any of the components by attempting to power it up with the panel being broken. I read in one Avsforum thread (for whatever that's worth 😂) that the "scan driver boards" (by which I assume he means buffer boards) could be impacted by doing so. Is that actually the case? If so, since I don't intend on selling bad...

    A1534 2015 820-00045 internal display not detected, but external works
    by baglaivlad
    Hi everyone!
    Trying to repair A1534 2015 macbook. The keyboard and touchpad was liquid damaged by coke, but the MLB has no signs of corrosion. The laptop successfully turned on, but missed a display flex. Replaced keyboard, touchpad and display flex, but still no image on the internal display (no backlight as well). When connecting to the external display the laptop works just fine (I have an image).
    It seems like internal display is not recognized. I tried multiple known-good displays and display flexes, the outcome is the same: no life on the display.
    It lead me to believe...

    Samsung QN75Q6FNA backlight no display, red LED blink 2x, fault in panel
    by howardc64
    • Prior owner tried a replacement main board. No difference.
    • Samsung 2x red blinking standby LED = panel fault
    • Jumpered FB_TRDY_1 (pin 1 CN1300 left. main tcon->left side buffer boards) and FB_TRDY_3 (pin 95 CN1301 right. main tcon->right side buffer boards) This allows testing individual T-Con (on main board) connection to panel on this Samsung. Found fault on left side (viewing from rear of TV)
    • Each side has 2 buffer boards, disconnected left side flex between 2 buffer boards. Fault is on the left most board.
    • Tape masking eventually isolated to CN1300 pin 15 (CKV4_GOA) Display

    No Ringer Sound in Intercom outdoor panel (Voice Communication Works)
    by salah11
    Hello everyone,
    I have a persistent issue with a commercial intercom system (likely made in Turkey, based on the unit). Voice communication (audio) works perfectly, but the outdoor panel did not return the ring when the call button is pressed.
    Whell the system consists of three main circuit boards (see attached photos):
    A. Board 1: Power Supply / Ringer Generator (White Board) with LS1240A, BD442 and BD140 Power transistors for ring amplification.
    B. Board 2: Handset (Indoor Unit) Role: Contains the microphone, the speaker/baffle, the manual hook switch, and the open-door...
