    Re: TNPA5349 Buffer replacement

    I repaired one a while ago (TX-P42U30B) and I quite liked it when working...

I will also pull the 2 cap from across SN2 socket as well do you think that I am right about the test across the diodes by the buffers as these show short?
      the smd diodes next to buffers will sow short and is normal. you'd have to lft them if you want to be sure

        as per NEELIX, by the time you enlarge it, too hard to read. I'm not understanding how a shorted buffer chip can short sn2. I experimented with shorting vfo to vfg on a X20 Sn and did not cause sn2 to short

          Didn't you have one from Brazil...? will have to dig it out...

              Thanks guys ,I will be back on to this late this afternoon, have to go out this morning. But anything you think could help me track down this short, or any tips for removing the buffer cleanly on these new Panasonic boards please post here Flocko

                Well the buffer removal did not go to well lost two tracks, tried to put up photos but for some reason it will not let me. anyway the short remains on SN2, I can only put so much time into this board,I would have liked to fix it but will now put it to one side and come back to it later, but will also keep a eye open for a replacement board, thanks for all the help, I will keep you updated if I find the short Flocko

                  Good luck finding one that is affordable or worth it, They are as rare as rocking horse crap believe me as I am hunting one myself.

                  Mine had had a previous repair attempt before I purchased this set and it did not go well for the board, Torn up tracks and pads, multiple shorts blah blah blah All my IC's are fine so may well try and get it repaired if i cannot source an affordable replacement.

                  Also sorry I have not been on for the last week as I have a IR rework machine here

                        Re: TNPA5349 Buffer replacement

                        it was the silicon that done for me, you can only get off what is over the pins but it must be very fluid when its put on, as it seeps right under the chip, used hot air and lifted it in one corner and then flipped it on its back, but you could see the tracks had been pulled up by the silicon as went over it was the last part to let go that pulled the tracks, I keep trying to load photos but don't seem able to. Newtothis the boards are out there you just have to know were to look? Flocko

                          yeah, and that was the point i was trying to make about getting all the silicone off. When i had a go I cut the pins against the chip, then got the ic off , no issue( took a lot of force)but I still had some sealant on the pins and it was that that grabbed the tracks as i was desoldering the legs and tore the tracks.

                          have you checked the size of the photo, not larger than 2000 x 2000, that will stop it uploading

                            Hi TW Yes I cannot say I was not warned, but I would not think these two missing tracks would make the board a right off, as you can see were they go to on the ribbon socket ,its more the short that is the time killer trying to find that, I could try the old trick of putting some volts though it and watch for the smoke (24v Truck battery)? the photos are stills from the microscope but just wont download on to here Flocko

                              The short has me puzzled, that's for sure. No photo is a real tease. so what format is the still and what's it's dimensions ?

                              A truck battery, hope not direct to it, it has enough current to vapourise anything, i think you'd want to limit the current somehow. I've never experimented applying voltage to a short to find heat

                                Sorry TW that is just my cockney sarcasm the bit about the truck battery, I used to work as signal tech on the London underground ,on the ticket vending side (auto fare collecting) and each station had a room full of coding and decoding equipment, That magnetically encrypted a code to the back of the ticket, that was read by the auto gates as you passed though, this was so complex that when things went wrong find the faults were a big problem, and I was the only tech and on call for the Victoria line (was new then)and Bakerloo line. When a tech on another line ask one day how I checked for shorts I told him with a truck battery (as a joke) and he burnt out about four miles of wiring and nearly burnt down the strand station Happy days Flocko

                                    Problem

                                    This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....

                                    Schematic or datasheet for Plasma TV buffer chip
                                    by Yanleb
                                    Hi all,

                                    I'm interested in understanding how a buffer board chip is working. I know there's about 90 outputs per chip to the plasma panel, but I'm more interested to know about the input pins. I guess that some of them are address pins, but I want to know more.

                                    So far I've found nothing at all. I haven't found any datasheet about the various buffer chips, and I haven't found any schematic for the buffer board using them (Y Buffer Board in Samsung's terminology).

                                    Any information will make me happy. It can be from any buffer chip or plasma TV manufacturer....

                                    LG Plasma TV Bad Y Buffer Replacement
                                    by Bad_Boards
                                    Background:
                                    I have a LG 50PA550 Plasma TV which stopped displaying a picture. The sound works just fine. The outputs of the power supply board were within 2% of the expected values. After removing the Y top buffer the bottom half of the TV started working.
                                    Question:
                                    Do I have to order both a Y-Buffer and Y-Sustain board to fix this?
                                    Could I somehow check the Y-Sustain board to see if there was any damage done to it?

                                    Unknown transformer : how to find a good replacement part ?
                                    by the_rem
                                    Hello guys,

                                    I would like a quite old but still good 800 W ATX PSU to be repaired. The problem was an extremely heavy coil whine coming from the small secondary transfomer on the PCB.

                                    I desoldered it hoping the references on the upper side would allow me to find a adequate replacement part. Sadly the written references drove me nowhere but to the manufacturer (I-MAG). I sent them a message like a bottle in the see asking them to send me a datasheet of the transformer. And... They responded ! I received a kind of datasheet (see attachment) but my competencies do not allow...

                                    Hello,

                                    Not sure if this is the correct section, but I have a PS4 controller that I am trying to fix. It developed stick drift on the left stick and the usual simpler methods did not fix the problem.

                                    So I went on eBay and ordered some replacement potentiometers. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174967976757 is where I got them from.

                                    I took the green potentiometers off the replacement sticks and soldered them onto the PCB. Assembled the controller and ran some tests. The drifting was somewhat fixed (not fully in center, but way better than before). However,...
