 Routine inspection

      First of all

take a visual on the Repair board first, See if there is a small heat sink shift

Deformation

The phenomenon of burning 

coke

If there is a need to deal with

The small heat sinks shifts

,先

 After the demolition, Wash away the original gum

Repair and re-glue after passing. 

Secondly

after visual inspection, no problem.

The impedance of each voltage domain can be detected first

detects if there is a short circuit, or open 

circuit condition. If there is any discovery

must be handled well. 

Again

Detection of voltage in each voltage domain is achieved 0.4v, The voltage difference of each voltage domain must not exceed 0.05

 A voltage field 

voltage is too high or too low

the circuit of its adjacent voltage field is usually stored In abnormal phenomena. You need to troubleshoot the cause first.

 After routine testing, no problem. 

Short-circuit detection of general routine testing is a must, Avoid burning chips or other materials due to short circuits when 

energized

 When locating to a faulty chip

The chip must be re-welded. The method is to add flux around the chip

Preferably a no-wash flux

),

Heating the solder points 

of the chip pin to a dissolved state,  Move lightly under the left and right

Press the Chip

Enable the chip pin to be re-enchanted with the pad

Collect tin. To achieve 

the effect of re-tin. If you re-weld,

The fault is still the same

The chip can be replaced directly. 

 
6

 After repairing the operation board

When testing box detection

Must be more than two times. Two test times before and after

First time

After 

the replacement parts have been completed

Requires the operation board to cool down

Pass the test  

 After passing

Put one side first. Second time

After a few minutes, the arithmetic board cools completely.

To test again. Although the two tests have a 

few minutes to be spent,

But this does not affect the work. will be repaired  

 Board on one side.

Keep repairing the second board.

And wait for the second plate to be repaired and cooled.

Test the first block again. So time just 

staggered

Did not delay the total length of time.

 The repaired board. Need to classify the fault

and the replacement component model, location, reasons and other aspects of the record. For feedback 

back to production, after sale, research and development.

 After the record.

Re-installed into the whole machine for normal testing. 

 
 Fault type:  S9 Common fault types are

 

1

 Heat sink, heatsink shift, variant

      Not allowed on the back of the board chip before powering on PCB Heatsink displacement on the board

Have 

collided

In particular, different voltages of the heatsink. Different voltage domains The heat sink is exposed to the possibility that a different voltage point will 

be shorted. And make sure each heatsink on the op-amp has a good heat conduction.

Fixed firmly. Replace or re-heat the heatsink

It is necessary to clean the 

heat sink, the residue on the chip and then re-glue the adhesive.

Residual heat conductive adhesive can be cleaned with anhydrous alcohol. 

2

 Impedance imbalance in each voltage domain

 

     When the impedance of some voltage domains deviates from normal

It is indicated that there are open 

circuit and short circuit in abnormal voltage domain. The general chip is the most likely cause 
Big. But there are three chips per voltage domain.

Often fail when

Only one of the problems. The method of finding out the problem chip can detect the anomaly 

of the ground impedance by the test point of each chip. Point. If you encounter a short-circuit phenomenon

The same voltage can be first removed from the heatsink 

on the chip

Then observe the chip pin has no tin phenomenon. If the appearance cannot find a short-circuit point

The short-circuit point can be found according to the 

resistance method or current interception method. 

3, voltage-Domain voltage imbalance

 

When some voltage field voltages are too high or too low

In general, its abnormal voltage domain or adjacent voltage domain exists I Case of abnormal 

signal

Cause one or the next voltage field to work in an abnormal state and the voltage imbalance. The anomaly can be found by detecting the signal and 

voltage at each test point.

The individual needs to find the anomaly by comparing the impedance of each test point. Pay special attention to

CLK Signal and RST 

Signal

These two anomalies are the most likely to cause voltage imbalance. 

4, missing chips

 

     Missing chip is the test box at the time of detection

Not all of them are detected. 63 A chip

Often only the actual number of chips is not 

detected. and the actual missing

Not detected

 The exception chip is not in the displayed position

In this case, the abnormal chip should be accurately located by 

testing. The positioning method can be used TX By the way of the deadline issued

Find the location of the abnormal chip. is to put a chip's TX Signal to ground

For 

example

The first 50 A chip. TX The output of the field to the voltage domain After

Theoretically, if all the chips in front are normal, 

The test box should show the 

detected 50 A chip

If you do not detect 50 A chip

Description exception in 50 A chip before

;如

 The fruit detects 50 A chip
