    Coupling Capacitor In Video Amplifier/Driver Circuit (CRT TV)

    I'm currently replacing the output capacitors in a LM2437 CRT driver circuit for a TV.

    The datasheet is here:
    https://pdf1.alldatasheet.com/datash...C/LM2437T.html

    From the labels on the PCB of the LM2437 IC the input voltage is 80V.

    Howewer, datasheets and original capacitors on the board suggest 1uF/160V as the output coupling capacitors for RGB signals.

    Here:


    Do you guys think that I can use 1uF/100V capacitors and the datasheet is overrating the voltage? I assume that the maximum voltage on the three lines would be no higher than 80V.

      What is the voltage potential between the - and the + of the capacitor?

          I cannot measure it unluckily has I would have to solder the shield back again, connect all grounds again and voltages in that area can be quite high.

          Do you think is possible to have higher voltage than supply current?

              You need to look at the other end of the capacitor. Just going by your datasheet, I see 120v on the positive side, The monitor voltage could be higher. Why not just use 160v caps?

                  My choice of 160V and 250V capacitor is currently limited to capacitors which exhibits mediocre E.S.R. (8 Ohm and 16 Ohm despite them being unused but I'd assume that this is their de facto E.S.R.) and I'm worried that this will cause problems regarding the quality of the video outputs.

                  If you or other members can confirm that video signals do not require low E.S.R. I will use a 160V or 250V part.

                      UN55D6900 BN44-00428B partial led driver circuit failure
                      by Daveleone
                      Hello TV experts! I have a UN55D6900. The successfully TV turns on, and the backlights light up, and I get a picture, but there is a section that is dim. I took it apart and 1 out of 4 segments of backlight LEDs are not lighting on both sides of the TV (in other words, the same segment is out on both LED strips).

                      I tested the LED strips with my LED tester and all of the LEDs light properly, so I believe the problem is with the PSU/LED driver board (BN44-00428B). The voltages at CNM810 (between PSU and main board) look ok to me. The voltages at CNL801A and CNL801B look off for one...

                      HannStar Hanns-G HC194d LCD monitor repair
                      by momaka
                      Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...

                      Aiwa GX-770 Amplifier Protection Circuit
                      by waspie
                      I am by no means an expert on this type of troubleshooting but I can follow direction real well.

                      I'm no stranger to using a meter and soldering iron so I'm looking for some help in fixing an old amplifier/system I got. This is part of a system "V-1200" by Aiwa where there are several components. My first problem seems to be the amplifier.

                      It seems to be in protection. When first turned on I hear the inital relay coming on but never the second relay which is connected to the protection IC. I don't see any obvious bad components on the board. If I ground the...

                      LED DRIVER KEEPS DYING
                      by osrex
                      Hello, this is my first post and im just a beginner, so be easy on me guy. thanks



                      i have a LED chandeilier that switches colors from white to cool white to warm when toggling the switch, it has 24 LED arms, each arm is 30 CM length.



                      i have no datasheet at all for the LED lights, all i have is its length.



                      long story short, testing the chandelier on the ground, and it works fine for 1 - 2 - 6 hours, no problem.



                      as soon as i fix the chandelier to the ceiling and bury the driver inside the hub,...
