    Bn44-00623B pfc mosfet very hot

    Hi,
    Found pfc mosfet Qp802c shorted. Replaced together with Pfc ic and blu ceramic caps.
    Now pfc is working at 388v. However the heatsink is too hot to the touch. Have compared most values with a scrap o
    Pcb and consulted circuit.

    Any tips on this common board?
    I have the 46 model.
    The 42 is Bn4400622b with same pfc circuit.

    Thanks.

    How was QP802C shorted? was it shorted D~G ? if it was you may have damaged the gate drive components, likely a shorted diode. Also check if there is a zener diode off the IS pin of the drive ic that may be shorted
    On the BN44-00622b schematic, check dp806,rp804,rp805 and zdp801, Check that dp803 or dp805 are not shorted.
    Did you replace the mosfet with the same part number?

      I have swapped twice mosfet with an identical from another board. Mosfet was shorted drain to source. Have already checked those components but will try sgain desoldering diodes just in case.
      Tks

          Do you have an oscilloscope to check gate drive is turning gate off?
          I assume no responsibility for any stupid suggestions I might post.

              I would have to think one of the components on gate drive or CS is out of spec. Not allowing fet to completely turn off and on. You do have to isolate your ground to check gate drive with oscilloscope.

                HI,

                I have replaced most of the Gate driver compoinents and others as highlighted in pdf attached.
                I have scoped both the bad board and a good one I have as spare. There is a slight frequency difference as both settings where the same.

                Offset 0V

                Bad board Gate pin

                Good board Gate pin

                Highlighted schematic


                Still no progress.
                I am trying the board on its own now on the bench. Still heats up, a bit less due to less load but still more than the good one.
                Any clues?

                  VGA MOSfet permanently shorted and loss of MOSfet pad
                  by Nooy
                  Hello everyone, I recently found this badcaps site and super Learn Electronics Repair youtube channel. And I wanted to learn how to troubleshoot power supplies and VGA cards and how to practice soldering, since I already have a properly defective piece of them. I am currently trying to solve two problems:

                  I have a Gigabyte GV-RX460WF2OC-4GD type card. I managed to find the faulty MOSfet (AON6414A) on it, which I replaced. The card starts up, but after about half a minute, the MOSfet in the same position will be shorted again. Is it possible that the PWM controller driving the MOSfet...

                  Alienware M18x Shorted CPU Mosfet
                  by chestercc
                  I've got an old Alienware M18x R1 which shorted out the charger whenever it was connected. Tracked down the short to two shorted caps and burned CPU power controller caused by a shorted mosfet on the CPU's graphic power supply.

                  I've replaced the faulty mosfet, two shorted caps and the CPU Power controller (NCP6151S52MNR2G).

                  Issue is now whilst there is no short if I attempt to power the system on the fans spin for a couple seconds there are no lights and no further action - the PCH is heating up but there is no CPU power coming out but there is an enable signal...

                  iMac 2017 PSU - shorted PFC mosfet
                  by mat2k
                  I am trying to fix an iMac 2017 PSU, initially came with a blown fuse and shorted PFC MOSFET (6R199P). After visual inspection and some measurements I replaced the FET with a P20NM60 and tested with 100w series lamp, and it lasted 1 second before going into dead short. The PFC controller chip (NCP1605BG) and its passives appear fine (passives measure OK), but I do not know if there is a simple way of testing the NCP1605 as I wouldn't like to blind-replace it.
                  There was some slight blackening of the solder on the PFC controller passives so I reflowed them all with some flux. I am waiting...

                  MSI GTX-980ti shorted MOSFET on memory rail
                  by daemon123
                  Hi All,
                  I have this MSI GTX-980ti Gaming Golden Edition. It had shorted mosfet on memory. Replaced the shorted i.e. Q47 PK616BA with 4C09N and the card ran fine for a month. Then suddenly again the same problem. This time when i replace it 4C09N or with replacement PK616BA (Aliexpress) it gets shorted. As soon as turn on the PC the PSU shuts down and the same mosfet Q47 gets short.
                  What should be the next step. Kindly guide.
                  The board view files for this gpu is available and attached. https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?p=1237952...

                  How do you test MOSFET in laptops ?
                  by Jane
                  I tried to use this method:

                  Testing an N-channel MOSFET:

                  Step 1: Discharge the Gate (turn off the MOSFET)
                  Place the black probe (COM) on the Source (S) and the red probe on the Drain (D). The multimeter should show no continuity (high resistance or "OL" – open line).
                  Then, touch the black probe to the Source (S) and the red probe to the Gate (G). This discharges any stored charge in the Gate, turning the MOSFET off.

                  Step 2: Charge the Gate (turn on the MOSFET)
                  Now, place the red probe on the Gate (G) and the black probe on the
                  ...
