    Protron PLTV-32c

    Hello all,
    I have a Protron PLTV-32c that has no standby power or any other voltages for that matter. I read the posts about the PLTV-3250 and it sounds like the same issue but a different power supply. I checked all transistors, diodes, zeners and found no bulging caps. Everything checks out ok. Granted everything was checked in circuit and no components have been pulled off the board and checked, which will be my next move. I think I'll start with replacing all electrolytics and then pulling off zeners and checking them outside the circuit. Does anyone by chance have a schematic of this power supply: FSP232-4M01. These surface mount diode and transistor markings are cryptic. Color bands are hard to read etc. It would be much easier to be able to reference a schematic. Anybody else have the same issue with this LCD or have any suggestions? Would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    There are a few (very few!!) schematics of TV power supplies floating around. From the few I've seen, the standby supply is usually a very simple supply. I'd suggest treating that as a simple power supply and starting with the basics. Make sure the main filter cap has the proper voltage (1.4X line voltage), the SMPS chip is getting appropriate voltages, and the output diode and load aren't shorted.

    Pay particular attention to small electrolytic caps around the SMPS IC. Because of the 'bootstrap' design of these supplies an open cap can prevent the standby supply from even starting.

    For a number of reasons, both health and personal, I will no longer be active on this board. Any PMs asking for assistance will be ignored.

    Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

      Thanks for the reply. I did check ESR of all electrolytics and all measured ok. The filter Cap is at 160v which is 1.4x as you suggested. I am definitely missing something. I still don't trust any of the caps. Like I said earlier I'll start with recapping the whole supply check the smps chip voltages and then work through the other components one by one. Thanks again.

        Desoldering gun station modified to use a 18 volt @ 20 amp switching power supply
        by sam_sam_sam
        I have wanting to do this project for quite sometime now and I finally found a switching power supply that will work on this desoldering gun station ZD-915 that the original switching power supply took a shit and just was not worth trying to fix it because this switching power is not quite big enough to handle the heater element and the vacuum pump

        One note when I tested the switching power supply and the voltage control board I noticed that this desoldering gun heat up much faster than the original switching power supply which I was really surprised by to the point that I might buy...

        Modification to a ZD-987 desoldering/soldering station using a external switching power supply
        by sam_sam_sam
        I have been working on this concept for quite some time now with limited success but recently I found a switching power supply that is setup for the voltage that this soldering station needs to operate at however it also needs part of the secondary circuit from the original switching power because you need several voltage rails

        I once tried to get a ZD-915 desoldering station to work on a 18 volt battery power supply but unfortunately things did not go well but I did find a work around but I might try this idea again but going at a little differently more about this another time...

        Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
        by Tynan Dill
        I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

        Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

        I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

        The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

        With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

        Assuming...

        Definitive technology SC 2000 subwoofer amp's power supply clicking and popping
        by JimBanville
        The sub developed a constant popping every couple seconds from woofer and power LED flickering with nothing but wall AC connected. Connecting an audio cable didn't change anything. It doesn't play but a second or two of audio in between the pops.
        Opened it up and discovered the power supply is making a faint clicking or ticking sound.
        I measured the amp's output to the woofer and it pulses up to 50mv DC to be driver. The pulses coincide with the power supply ticking/clicking.
        I measured the power supply output going to the amp board and it too has this pulsing. Voltage cycles...

        Power supply Manson NTP-5561 (5661) LCD controller dead - PIC18F87K90 HEX dump required
        by Andreas_de
        Hello!

        i got a damaged Manson NTP-5561 (60V, 1,6A DC output) and and the main issue is that the controler IC for the LCD display has a short. The controler IC PIC18F87K90 is mounted on the back of the back of the LCD. Vss-Vdd = 3 Ohm. The 5V and 3,3V power line was killed as well, but that is not a problem. A new LDO 3,3V and 5V 7805 is already ordered.
        Replacing the PIC18F87K90 is necessary but that makes no sense without having the HEX dump of the new controler.

        Does anybody have such a power supply and could do a HEX dump of the Flash and EEPROM memory?
