SANSUI HRJS21 – 21 Inch Semi flat CRT TV - FROM MY SERVICE TABLE TODAY

From My Service Table Today - SANSUI HRJS21 – 21 Inch Semi flat CRT TV - Dead Condition

Set got for repair Today; in dead condition.  The party said; the set has gone dead while working.  They have noted a variation in brightness level, before the set has gone dead.

  Something wrong to its horizontal scan output section circuit; I assumed, because, the set was working fine, and has gone dead condition; the party said so.  I asked the party; whether they heard any unusual noise from the set, before it gone dead.  They have informed me, that there was no such abnormal noise.  OK.  That’s all the details I could collect from the party.

  Just see; the party was seeing this set.  It went dead suddenly, without any reason; without any unusual noise from it.  If there was a noise did they heard, it might be of the blown up protection fuse inside the TV,  No noise heard, means, no such fault could be with this set.

  I opened the set.  Checked the AC fuse.  OK.  Means the party was right to their information.  Without blowing the AC mains fuse, here the set has gone dead.

I plugged the set to AC mains and switched it ON.  Measured the voltage across the main smoothing capacitor.  Showed  about 295VDC.  OK.  The rectifier section is working properly, but the SMPS section circuit does not.

Something short circuit to the DC voltage output of the SMPS.

To most SMPS circuit used today, have short circuit protection.  If any short circuit is detected by the main system control IC; to any of the DC output section of the SMPS, it will send a ‘Stop’ signal to SMPS controller, to defeat it.  That is happening here too.

Just see; the party has informed me that, they were seeing the program, while the set went dead.  I have this in my mind. 

One possibility to this fault; according to my service experiences, since 45 years; is the short circuited junction of the HOT [Horizontal Output Transistor] (Collector to Emitter).  I did measure the DC resistance across the 110VDC [Output of SMPS] supply line.  Shows a resistance less than 10 ohms. VERY LOW INDEED. A short circuit is detected.  De-soldered out the Horizontal output transistor; and measured the DC resistance again.  No short detected. More than 800 Ohms.

Yes.  The HOT was damaged.  Collector- to - Emitter short. 2SD2499.

Fault confirmed.

But, there should be some reason for the failure of HOT.  What might it be? Sometimes nothing.  Sometimes may have.  But, before replace this transistor, I should check for the reason; otherwise, the transistor I will replace too will be get shorted.

There are mainly two reasons for this fault.

Short circuited winding at the deflection yoke [horizontal scan section]

 The free-wheeling capacitor (the capacitor connected to the collector of the horizontal output transistor to Ground- usually will have a  value of 2200 to 9500Pf 2000VDC.)

If this capacitor has open circuit, means failed or any of its 2 solder terminals have any fault; loose soldering or so; the Horizontal Output Transistor will blow out, as soon as you switch ON the set.  You won’t get any time to measure any voltage abnormality.  The fault will occur within in a microsecond.  There is no doubt about it.

Although I've verified the fault, by replacing the HOT, the set worked fine.  But the it has lack of focus.

Adjusting the focus control at the horizontal output transformer didn't help much.

Further checking revealed that, the focus pin connection [At the CRT connector socket] is damaged.  Corroded.  Replaced  the CRT connector socket, at the CRT interface card. Adjusted both screen and focus voltage.

Checked OK.

Do you wish to get more about my service experiences?
Type in this key phrase “ my service table today “ in the search box at the top right of the display window of the home page, to get gathered some pages which has the details of practical experiences of mine.

PLASMA TV – FAULTS – CIRCUIT BOARD FUNCTION DETAILS - TROUBLESHOOTING

PDP circuit boards

VIF Board
General digital video signals include Vsync, Hsync, R(8Bit), G(8Bit), B(8Bit) and Data Enable (Blank);the VIF of PDP is making for processing these digital signal. Because PDP belonging a high end product, so its application should include the functions of Monitor (analogue VGA, digital DVI signal input). And for consumer’s sake, the VIF should have the functions of video, like audio, composite, s-video, component signal processing.

Currently the video signal sources are video cassette recorder, DVD player, CATV, RF tuner, VGA card (PC). In order that all the video signal sources can be displayed on PDP, so we need an interface to transfer these signals to a specified signals for PDP to display and this is the function of VIF (Video Interface).

Basic framework of VIF board

 For dealing with the signals of CVBS, S-video and Component, it requires a video decoder IC. And the output of video decoder will input to a de-interlace chip IC for a stable image quality. Because the TV system uses interlace scanning, it causes flickers on the screen. To improve this situation so we use a de-interlace chip IC. The ADC (Analog to Digital Converter) IC converts the analogue RGB signal to digital RGB signal. The TMDS (Transition Minimized Differential Signalling) decoder IC transmits digital RGB signal. All the output of ICs’ signal sends to scalar IC.

1. ADC Converter: AD9888 The AD9888 is a complete 8 bit, 205 MSPS monolithic analogue interface optimized for capturing RGB graphics signals. Its 205 MSPS encode rate capability and full-power analogue bandwidth of 500 MHz supports resolutions up to UXGA (1600 x1200 @ 75 Hz).

2. TMDS Receiver: SIL153BCT100 The Sil153BCT100 receiver uses Panel Link Digital technology to support high resolution displays up to SXGA (25MHz~112MHz). The Sil153B receiver supports up to true color panels (24 bit/pixel, 16.7M colors) in 1 or 2 pixels/clock mode. In addition, the receiver data output is time staggered to reduce ground bounce that affects EMI.

3. VIDEO Decoder: SAA7118E The SAA7118E decoder is a ADC too, but it can deal with the ordinary TV signals. The SAA7118E can input Composite, S-video, Component and its outputs are digital Y(Luminance) , C (Chromacity) signals. And also can adjust brightness, contrast, saturation, hue.

4. De-interlace:  The Sil504 transfer interlacing signals to progressive signals. The advantage of progressive signals is that the scanning rate doubling to let the screen more stable and non-flickering. Besides, the sources of input may have 24 0r 30 or 25 frames per sec, so the de-interlaced chip shall tell from the differences and processing the signals. The basic principle of de-interlaced IC is combined the odd and even fields to a frame, and the processing needs a memory IC (SDRAM) to stock these signals for processing. For the improving the quality of image sake, more and more TVs or DVD players all have the functions of progressive scanning.

5. Image Processor chip: PW171-20U (system on chip).

Scaling function

 The Image scalars provide high quality up and down image scaling. For the applications of VIF, the input signals could be VGA, SVGA, XGA formats, and its output fixed at 852 x 480 @60 HZ. For example, SVGA format: 800 x 600 @75Hz, first scaling down: Horizontal 800 640 Vertical 600 480, 75 frames / sec after frame rate conversion become 60 frames per sec. Then scaling up 640 852, to accomplish the scaling function.

Micro Processor Function

 This chip includes microprocessor (on-chip 80x86); selectable function and I/O interface control. With 3 groups of 8-bit programmable I/O, 1 group of RS-232 communication port, IR decoder, timer and a PWM generator ◎ OSD Function: The on-screen-display (OSD) can be used for startup screens, menus, and scribble functions.

VIF (Video interface)

d-1. When main switch is ON, the power board generates Vsby 5 volts to VIF board. The IC of microprocessor becomes standby status waiting for a startup signal from key-pad or receiver.

d-2 When a startup signal is detected then microprocessor sending a ON signal to the power board through CN connector , and the power board begins generating all voltage to PCB board(Vs, Vxg, Vw, Vf, Vdd, Vcc, 9volts) . At the same time VIF will generate background light and OSD menu as select. After searching a input source, then will display on the PDP screen, if there are audio signals , it will amplify and send to speakers through audio board.

d-3 If there are abnormal signals are detected(such as over voltage , over current , low voltage ..) , the power board will send abnormal detective signal to shut down all the system.

DIF Board

 Function: The video or pc signal is processed and send to DIF form VIF. There are gamma correction, basic white balance data, power loss control, and data translation function. When DIF board work normally the LED on the board should light. When you turn on the main power switch this LED should light a few seconds to inspect itself and then disappear.

X/Y Sustainer Board
Receive the signal from DIF.And output high voltage scan signal to panel.
Audio Amplifier Board
It comprises special switch mode power supply and audio amplifier and electronic switch for outer and inner speakers exchange. It connects to 300V from main power supply on the module from socket CN5601. M5502 connects to inner speakers by cable. M5503 connects to outer speakers socket boards by cable. M5501 connects to VIF and receives the R,L audio signal, MUTE, SWITCH control signal. The inner output power is up to 4W, And the outer output power is up to 20w together on 4ohm impedance.
