How to check the power supply of LG plasma TV 50PJ350
1)
SMPS, Y-SUS or Z-SUS board is replaced.
2)
Panel is replaced, Check Va/Vs since the SMPS does not come with new panel.
3)
A Picture issue is encountered.
4)
As a general rule of thumb whenever the back is removed.
DC VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENTS
1)
POWER SUPPLY: VS, VA (Always do first)
2)
Y-SUS: Adjust –Vy, VSC.
3)
Z-SUS: Adjust Z-Bias (VZB).
WAVEFORM ADJUSTMENTS
Y-SUS:
Set-Up, Set-Down.
The
Waveform adjustment is only necessary.
1)
When the Y-SUS board is replaced
2)
When a “Mal-Discharge” problem is encountered.
3) When an abnormal
picture issues is Encountered.
DC Voltages developed on the SMPS: Adjustments VA and VS.
Always
refer to the Voltage Sticker located on the back of the panel, in the upper
Left Hand side for the correct voltage levels for the VA, VS, - VY, VSC, and Z
Bias as these voltages will vary from Panel to Panel even in the same size
category.
Set-Up
and Ve are just for Label location identification and are not adjusted in this
panel.

Check
the silk screen label on the top canter of the Power Supply board to identify
the correct part number. (It may vary in your specific model number).
The Switch Mode Power Supply Board Outputs to the:
AC
Voltage is supplied to the SMPS Board at Connector SC101 from the AC Input
assembly, routed to the Standby 5V supply. The STBY5V (standby) is B+ for the
Controller chip on the back of the board (IC701) on the SMPS and output at P813
pins 13 and 14 then sent to the Main board for Microprocessor (IC1) operation
(STBY 3.46V RUN 5.14V).
When
the Microprocessor (IC1) on the Main Board receives a “POWER ON“ Command from
either the Power button or the Remote IR Signal, it outputs a high (2.43V)
called RL_ON at Pin 15 of P813. This command causes the Relay Circuit to close
both Relays RL101 and RL103 routing AC to the Bridge Rectifier D101 which then
routes the primary voltage to the PFC circuit (Power Factor Controller) 388V
which can be read measuring voltage at Fuses F302 and F801 from “Hot” Ground.
AC Detection (AC Det) is generated on the SMPS, by rectifying a small sample of
the A/C Line and routed to the Controller (IC701) where it outputs at P813 pin
16 (4.44V) and sent to P301 to the Main Board where it is sensed and monitored
by the Main Microprocessor (IC1). If AC Det is missing the set will come on,
but shut off in 10 seconds.
When
RL_ON arrives, the run voltage +5V source becomes active and is sent to the
Main Board via P813 (5.17V at pin 5, 6 and 7). The (Error Det) from the SMPS
Board to the Main Board can be measured at pin 8 of P813 (2.85V STBY and 4.90V
RUN), but it is not used. The RL-ON command also turns on the 17V (Audio B+)
which is also sent to the Main Board. The 17V Audio supply outputs to the Main
board at P813 pins 1 and 2 and used for Audio processing and amplification.
The
next step is for the Microprocessor IC1 on the Main Board to output a high
(3.29V) on M_ON Line to the SMPS at P813 Pin 17 which is sensed by the
Controller IC701, turning on the M5V line and outputs at P812 pins 9 and 10 to
the Y-SUS board.
The
Controller (IC701) also uses the M_ON line to turn on the VA and the VS
supplies. (Note there is no VS On Command in this set). VS is output at P812 to
the Y-SUS board P210. (VA pins 6 and 7 and VS pins 1 and 2).
Note: The Va is
fused on the Y-SUS then routed out P203 to the X-Board Left. VS is also routed
out of the Y-SUS P211 pins 4 and 5 to the Z-SUS.
P2.
AUTO
GND Pin 18 of P813:
This pin is grounded on the Main board. When it is
grounded, the Controller (IC701) works in the normal mode, meaning it turns on
the power supply via commands sent from the Main board. When AUTO GND is floated
(opened), it pulls up and places the Controller (IC701) into the Auto mode. In
this state, the Controller turns on the power supply in stages automatically. A
load is necessary to perform a good test of the SMPS if the Main board is
suspect.
SMPS STATIC TEST UNDER LOAD
Using
two 100 Watt light bulbs, attach one end to Vs and the other end to ground.
Apply AC to SC101. If the light bulbs turn on and VS is the correct voltage,
allow the SMPS to run for several minutes to be sure it will operate under
load. If this test is successful and all other voltages are generated, you can
be fairly assured the power supply is OK.
Note:
To be 100% sure, you would need to read the current handling capabilities of
each power supply listed on the silk screen on the SMPS and place each supply
voltage under the appropriate load.
Note:
To turn on the Power Supply.
1)
With Main Board connected, press power.
2)
Without Main Board connected SMPS will turn on automatically.
Any
time AC is applied to the SMPS, STBY 5V will be 3.46V and will be 5.14V when
the set turns on.
AC
DET WILL NOT be present until set comes on.
If
AC Det is missing, the TV will come on and shut off in 10 Seconds.
With
P813 disconnected from the Main board (P301) attach two 100 Watt light bulbs,
attach one end to Vs and the other end to ground.
Apply
AC to SC101. If the light bulbs turn on and VS is the correct voltage, allow
the SMPS to run for several minutes to be sure it will operate under load. If
this test is successful and all other voltages are generated, you can be fairly
assured the power supply is OK.
Note:
To be 100% sure, you would need to read the current handling capabilities of
each power supply listed on the silk screen on the SMPS and place each supply
voltage under the appropriate load. Then follow the instructions below to
completely test turn on sequence.
Note:
Placing the two 100 Watt light bulbs from Vs to Ground will assure the power supply
will regulate with a load and no other Abnormal conditions may result.
When
the supply is operational in its normal state the Auto Ground line at Pin 18 of
P813 is held at ground by the Main Board.
This
Power Supply can be powered on sequentially to test the Controller Chip IC701
operational capabilities and for troubleshooting purposes.
Disconnect
P301 from the Main board and use the holes in that end of the connector to
insert the jumper and resistors.
Warning:
Remove AC before adding or removing any plug or resistor.
Note:
Leave previous installed 100Ω resistor in place when adding the next resistor.
(A)
Ground the Auto Gnd Line (Pin 18) will allow the supply to be powered up one
section at a time.
(B)
Add a 100Ω ¼ watt resistor from 5V Standby to RL_ON and the AC Det, 17V and 5V
Lines on P813 will become active.
(C)
Add a 100Ω ¼ watt resistor from any 5V line to M_ON (Monitor On) to make the
M5V, VS and VA lines operational.
P812 (VS pins 1 and 2) (VA pins 6 and 7) and (M5V pins 9 and 10)
Connector
“SMPS" to “Main" P301.
Note: The 17V, 5V, AC_Det and Error Det turn on when the RL_On command arrives.
Note: The M5V, Va and Vs turn on when the M_On (Monitor On) command arrives.
Note: The Error Det line is not used in this model.
Note: If the AC Det line is missing, the TV will shut off after 10 seconds of
operation.
Note: Pin 18 is grounded on the Main board. If this line is floated, the SMPS
turns on Automatically when AC is applied.
