Re: Panasonic SC Board - BAD 30F131 IGBTs

Here's a package comparison between the FGD4536 (Dpak) & 30F131 (D2pak)

Where did the image go? DG301 and 30F131 both are in question here.

I wonder which PCB(s) is/are available as great LOW-COST doner board(s) for both of these IGBT's, any ideas?

Just get a few SS boards. They have all the parts needed.

He could also use FGD4536 for both.

Hi. I have a Panasonic Plasma 55" VT30, that has blown GT30F131 components on the SC PCB, Pt No: TNPA5335 BA. It was repaired once previously and has worked for over two years. Now they have popped again. Note: The PCB mounting screws were still tight at PCB removal. It seems that the GT30F131 are no longer available and also that the FGD4536TM substitutes are also no longer available.

What is the currently available substitute component for the original GT30F131, that are not fake and good quality?

I can obtain IGB50N65S5 from a local electronics supplier, for reasonable price, but can anyone comment on suitability as replacement for GT30F131?

This is a really nice panel and I don't want to dispose it into landfill.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Cheers

Hello Whippet, I would wonder about max switching frequency rated @20kHz max.
Don't know switching freq of panel drive, but has to be at a few hundred kHz.
