    LED backlights voltage drop

    This is interesting numbers from the service manual.
    6.36V Drop PER LED, 19 LEDs x 6.36 = 120V.

    I wonder what kind of LEDs are being used, may be TWO LEDs inside one body?

    Re: LED backlights voltage drop

    I had some post on a Samsung LED set about some LEDs. I can't think if the name now, I am responding from my phone. That company made dual LEDs but the four j pins that solder it in were not the correct pin assignment to be serially linked. It may take some digging to get the correct voltage/current/pin assignment.

      Re: LED backlights voltage drop

      I've seen some [relatively] high power LEDs that operate at or around that voltage.

      A quick look online suggests that there are such things as dual white LEDs:
      The Cree X-Lamp ML-C series are basically two LEDs in one package, and they can be wired if series or parallel.

        Macbook A2179 820-01958

        Hi,
        Have a Macbook A2179 with liquid damage. Customer showed it some shop which has done an ultrasonic cleaning of the board.
        The board pulls 0V but doesnt turn on. No Fan SPIN. NOT IN DFU.

        I checked the Power Sequences below and found this -


        Once a valid external power source (Charger or battery) is connected, the following rails will come online.
        PPBUS_G3H: Normal voltage is ~12.6v on the charger with the battery disconnected. Produced from the ISL9240 (U7000, which uses PPDCIN_G3H as its VIN.
        PP3v3_G3H_RTC: Normal voltage is ~3.3v. Produced...

        MOSFET maintains voltage drop across G and S only for 3 seconds
        by digitalDNA
        Hello,

        While trying to fix an SMPS, I hear a ticking sound.
        I've checked all capacitors, but none seem to be shorted.

        I then suspected an issue with the flyback transformer which has 3 leads on the primary (used in a push-pull configuration ?) and one of them, which is always connected to GND has a resistance reading in the order of Mega ohms with any of the other 2 leads on the primary.

        But I thought let's check the MOSFETs first::

        The circuit also contains a PFC circuit, controlled by a UCC3818D (D stands for the SMD version),...

        Gigabyte Z490 Gaming X Motherboard No VCORE Voltage
        by Fernon@Repair
        i have Gigabyte Z490 Gaming X Motherboard .it has a power on no display fault .. no vcore voltage and debug led stuck CPU LED .

        VCCIO voltage ok
        VCCSA Voltage OK
        VCCPLL Voltage OK
        Ram Voltage ok
        RamVTT OK
        VPP 2.5 OK

        But No Core Voltage

        and i want to this vrm ic datasheet or pinout (ISL69269)
        anyone have this ic pinout voltages?...

        MacBook Pro A2251 - 820-01949 Voltage Drop and unkown issues.
        by pb1911nt
        Hello forum,

        I'm still relatively new to the world of electrical repairs.

        I have a Macbook here that I can't figure out

        When the battery is gone, the USB input consumption goes up to 20 V and 0.06A. But it breaks down after about 2-3 seconds and you can also hear a small ticking on the logic board. But I can't pinpoint it exactly.

        I removed the logic board and took a few measurements.

        But I can't really figure it out.

        At first I thought the infamous CD chip was defective - but then of course you read more on the internet...

        Samsung UE50TU7000K backlights on, no picture or sound
        by notallbad
        Plug in and backlights with Smart Tv powered by Tizen logo shows on screen
        then nothing, no stby led or response to remote, no sound from hdmi input.

        This has only 1 board, a 3in1_kant_su2.

        Try a usb stick with update firmware from Samsung and usb stick just flashes a couple of times, recognises usb, but thats it.

        Remove ribbon to panel, same results.

        I believe the leds are in an array of 3 x 12 @3v/led, going by what led sets are being sold for this tv on ebay and aliexpress.
        1 string of 12 leds, power supply in 84v, out...
