Re: MP 42HC56 SINOTEC 42 lcd

I think at this point I would replace N501

N501 has been replaced already

Re: MP 42HC56 SINOTEC 42 lcd

AC input of 222V ac = 222 x 1.414 = 314V dc which is what should be across the "-" & "+" of the bridge rectifier unless C511 & C520 are leaky.
This would raise the non-boosted V_PFC voltage going to N501 startup input.

Thank you i will check when I am back at the on monday

What's the DC voltage across C533?

295v

Re: MP 42HC56 SINOTEC 42 lcd

It looks like your mains incoming voltage is low. Post #2 also from South Africa indicates 320V dc across C533 which would indicate an ac input voltage of 226V.

Can you check your mains input ac voltage. Is seems low maybe around 212V ac

222VAC according to my multimeter

Re: MP 42HC56 SINOTEC 42 lcd

you have 180v at the vstr end of the two resistors, what do you have at the other end?

300vdc

Re: MP 42HC56 SINOTEC 42 lcd

Have you lifted R597 and R598 and checked they read what they are marked. You said you have already replaced C513, yes?

Yes on both counts

Re: MP 42HC56 SINOTEC 42 lcd

I must admit I have absolutely no idea what is wrong and even I am going around in circles on this one.

N501 require 12V min to operate. It initially has capacitor C513 charging via R597 & R598 through an internal circuit. These resistors are connected to V_PFC.

The V_PFC voltage is generated by N507 but it needs V_15v to supply the IC's working voltage to generate the boosted V_PFC

V_15V is generated via T501 which is driven by N501.

If you lift one end of D504 will N501 charge C513 to 12V?

No still 10v

Edit
Do you have 5V at C539

not sure where that 5v comes from

No there is only 1v there

Re: MP 42HC56 SINOTEC 42 lcd

The data sheet does say it can be left open so I don't know.

This pin adjusts the peak current limit of the Sense FET. The feedback
0.9mA current source is diverted to the parallel combination of an internal
2.8kΩ resistor and any external resistor to GND on this pin to determine the
peak current limit. If this pin is tied to Vcc or left floating, the typical peak current limit will be 0.7A.

Re: MP 42HC56 SINOTEC 42 lcd

that been said i see n503 is also missing but the diagram recons it must be there

i see there is no resistor on R502 but doesnt look like there ever was on according to the circuit diagram there should be a 10k according to your data sheet that pin controls peak current limit should i put a 10k in and see if it works?
