|
|
Hi All,
I'm trying to repair a CCFL Inverter of a FlyBook PC with no success. Can someone have a schematic or some tips to troubleshoot this?
The Controller Chip is a Monolithic Power Systems - MP1010BEF.
Thanks

Doubt if you could find the specific schematic for the flybook. The alternative would be to look at the data for the controller IC from the manufacturer MPS to get a general schematic of the device's application and start checking for the basics. |

Thanks for the reply vtech.
I've already downloaded datasheet of MP1010BEF from the IC manufacter site.
I have tested with scope the signal coming from Notebook and all it's ok. After, i try to look the signal on pin 10 (one of the output connected to the primary coil of the transformer) but there are only 0.65v DC, no waveform. If i disconnect the trasnformer from the pcb i can see a small square wave of 1.25Vpp.
Any Idea?
Whath should i see on the two pin of the primary coil? A signal like a PWM?
Thanks

Can't tell what is suppose to look like but you need to be able to see some sort of a pulse. Remember, in general for a transformer to operate, you'd need to have as close to a sine wave as possible. In this case, either side of the primary is above the main ground by means of the bleeder resistor and although you should be able to see either half from ground, if you want to scope the full output, you should be looking across the input coil without having to disconnect the txformer. If you can not see a pulse, you need to investigate further as the IC may be in shut down mode? In looking at the schematic, there are many possibilities that could shut down the IC. Pins 2.3.5.16.17.18.19 all of which are designed for some means of control. Re-read the data sheet and monitor each pin. Also any thing from an open lamp or shorted SMD cap along the way can trigger the shut down. |

Are you shure thet the transformer is ok.
I have the same case replace the transformer and it's ok.
The transformer has two coils one is about 2-3 Ohms, and the second has about 700Ohms, that in my case is faulty.
The transformer has just one pin conected on the side of ccfl lamp connector. |

No, the transformer is not ok, but i can't find any reseller for the transformer. Where you buy your transformer?
