    Re: Thermaltake ATX supply goes BANG! - TR2 RX-750

    Does someone have the technical map of this power supply?

      Is this not a skid mark around this transistor? I do believe whatever this is has puked it's guts.
      Popcorn.

        You have a lot of bad soldering joints when you see a ring around the joints those need to be reworked

        I would recommend replacing all capacitors that are less than 100uf
        at a minimum

        It would be better if you replace all the caps except the the main capacitor

          I had to pack up this project due to moving and am now getting back into the stash. I'm doing some more inspection and measurements and will respond shortly.

          Anyone else have experience with this model PSU or similar?

          Thanks for all the suggestions thus far.

            Input cap voltage is 167V.

              R7 looks okay to me.

              Just the plastic insulator on top, all the caps look good (not by brand though, obviously).

              I'm going to check the transistors for shorts and see what shows up.

                It's below R7 and to the right of R6.

                  Yeah that's a shadow, little dip in the solder.

                      Well, I found some of the bang! Looks like R9 spilled it's guts because ... ?

                        ... Q5 and Q6 are shorted. 6R190C6

                          and q5 & 6 are driven by what?
                          that has to be checked next

                            Driven by CM6800G!



                            Any thoughts on replacing the 6r190c6 with 20N60C3 or FCP20N60 (ON Semi) or ... ? I'm searching for details on issues or reliability related to these FETs and found a few situations where these substitutions were made. Also, in one review of this PSU they show the 20N60C3 instead of the 6r190c6.


                            Just curious.

                              Yeah me thinks IPx60R190C6 and 20N60 look like equivalents.

                              Think that 500V FET should be fine as well, it's two-forward when it has CM6800 without even looking, and most of them usually only had 18N50s (or 20N50s when over 600 W). Depends on what you can find around.
