For those in 220V locales, anyone power their SMPS with DC, and how high of a voltage is okay?
What kind of PSU?
I suspect that 240V * sqrt(2) = 340V DC is probably fine because that would be about how much the the primary rectifier ends up with peak voltage. Just wondering, other than input capacitor voltages, can one go up above this 340V without damage? Will that input capacitor be the upper bound?
Wondering if exactly that, can I feed near 400VDC into bona fide specced at 220V SMPS without damage?
Currently have a 120/220V switchable SMPS I want to see if I...

by Super360Hi as you can see from title, I have a samsung tv here that will show the smart tv logo and then no picture after that even hitting input or menu on remote and shows nothing but the backlight still appears to be on. The tv will turn itself off after a minute or so automatically. I'm somewhat confused if this is either a eeprom problem or a bad led strip problem. The power supply makes a pretty noticeable humming sound when it's turned on leading me to believe one of the leds are shorted but idk honestly. Any of you guys have any help for me? I have a good multi meter and can take pictures of whatever...4 Photos04-13-2024, 10:05 PM

by abajorI have the above mentioned MBP, quick scan with thermal camera revealed that only U3200 was heating up. I found that C3208, C3219 and C3205 were all reading ~6.8ohms to ground.
so I swapped U3200.
I connected the PSU again for a quick check on thermal it's drawing about the same amount of current but now I'm seeing only heat radiating from U7800 and the T2 chip from under the black shielding fabric, and the bottom of the board.
It's hard to judge the actual temperature without removing the shielding.
Does anybody have any insights?

by J_georgeI would like some help and advice which will be much appreciated, I am looking at a mac Macbook Pro A1990 board 820-01814-A. When I connect the USBC meter via external Power Supply I see Power cycling between 5v.040 A to .468A then it repeats.
After doing some diode tests I get a complete Short on L9530 which is the output inductor for PP1V8_ssd1.
I have given the screenshot here, I would like your recommendation and advice if anything I need to test get this issue sorted Or is it SSD short , Your help on this will be much appreciated...04-20-2024, 11:41 PM -
by SatdudeHi, I have a Yamaha RX-497 receiver, and one day I came home to a burnt smell and the breaker was tripped. Upon opening the receiver, I saw extreme damage to the main power board. C254 was exploded, R261 was burnt, D255 was shorted, Q254 is open circuit, D261 (bridge rectifier) is also open, traces to IC252 (TC4013BP) are vaporized right off the board. Not sure about any other damage, I'll have to desolder the flip flop to test it. Also the transformer T251 is getting hot when plugged in. What could have caused such extreme damage just sitting plugged in? Only repair that was done in the past...4 Photos

by wwbielskoHi,
I got corrupted bios bin file, which way is correct to repair.
File puts errors on Me Analyzer and cannot open in FIT.
To open in FIT I made:
1. Extract MFS and EFS using MEAnalyzer from other bios file with the same parameters
2. put it in HxD to my file
3. MEAnalyzer shows 1 error after that
4. file opens in FIT
and:
A:
1. extract current dell bios on website
2. put System BIOS with BiosGuard v1.30.0.bin using FIT
3. MEAnalyzer OK no errors
(this version shows only logo at bootup - freezeing)...-

by madan1Hello everyone.
I'm troubleshooting a cisco switch, which seems to have an issue with the PSU.
The psu has the following power rails - +12v, -53.5V and +3.3V
When connected to power, the +12 and -53.5 seem to work fine, but the +3.3 starts at ~3v and then goes down to ~0 (I guess this is the cap discharging). This happens both when the cable is connected and not to the switch board.
Any ideas what might be causing this behavior?

by timonix20hello everyone I am looking for a solution for my tv, I think corruption of the eemc,
the TV starts, LG logo, then nothing (rear backlight)
no reaction to rear command or infrared
the usb procedure that I tried on the LG site is a procedure with the screen and the remote control so I can't.
I have a chance with a usb procedure or other if you have .bin

Tv starts and responds to remote but screen does not look right , It looks like low resolution with some image ghosting. Now not having original board I dont know what to order ? Any advice how to figure out what exact board fits this tv ?
And another question Would it be possible to adopt this board to this tiv by chagning eeprom or tcon...Today, 08:25 AM -
by RotVikHello everyone, I come here in search of wisdom and hope.
I got this laptop with charging problems, apparently it charged ok while turned off but it would not charge while powered on, anyways I was doing initial measurements looking at the voltaje on the ID Pin, it is a 135W DC Adapter and the pin actually measured 1.9V that looks ok, anyways, while doing that, I accidentally shorted the ID pin DETECT(ID) with one of the 20V pins, sparkles and it automatically killed the TVS Diode PD102, and also made a cute burning hole on the middle of the KBC or EC chip UE1, it is a IT8227E-128,...04-19-2024, 01:04 PM

by TheOtherGuySo I'm having difficulty finding line drawings for this motherboard NM-C53. My charging port was broken. So I replaced it with a terrible solder job. Problem is pin 3 on the drawing I saw on here has it listed as adapter-id. Now I checked my other pins and I have continuity (resistance check from power to ground). Pin 3 shows nothing. Now I boot the computer and it says to use a power adapter with the proper wattage and won't charge. I have read that pin 3 is usually tied to a resistor that identifies the charging power thus disabled the ability to charge if it fails the check. I look at my board...Yesterday, 07:27 AM

My laptop started having a really strange problem....
When I turn it on the fans start working at a crazy rate and with random breaks...
They can work for say 10 seconds and stop for 2 seconds and then turn on again for 5 etc...
And it's from 0 to 100%. I tried to install AIDA and did the processor chip test and the graphics did not exceed 70 degrees and the fans were not even close to working at the power they work randomly.
