Re: Problems with t935a HV supply
What is the normal operating frequency of that transformer? 1000 Hz test
frequency seems to be on the rather low side. What is the frequency of the
ringing that you're seeing? That's probably the

Re: Problems with t935a HV supply
Hi,
You could try a lower frequency, like 10Hz or so, with a longer 'On' time, to allow the ringing to dampen by itself.
Now it could be stopped by the short 'on' time of the 1% of the 1kHz.
Did you

Re: Problems with t935a HV supply
The ring test with a 10 volt 1000 Hz square wave with a duty cycle of 1% shows ringing on the primary winding of T460 - so that looks good!
No ringing though, on the feedback winding on pins 3 and 6

Re: PG506 Repair - I had a Great Day today/
Hi Ren¨¦,
I measured C420 voltage. To my surprise it was +9.0 V. So I was very wrong with that +13.5 V. The mistake is I thought that +9 V would be present at the inputs of U430.
I also did waveform

Re: Problems with t935a HV supply
Hi all,
A DC resistance check does not give a valuable result.
E.G. a primary winding only has so many windings, and in a HV transformer could have a quite thick gauge, meaning a low resistance.
If

Re: PG506 Repair - I had a Great Day today/
Hi Ren¨¦,
It seems that Q440 never supplies a reference current to U460/2. C420 should sit at about +13.5 V anyway. Between centre and CW your U400/1 will be steady High since U470/7 is negative. For

Re: Problems with t935a HV supply
Hi,
I advise to do a "ringing test" to test the transformer.
It's basically a fast rise, slow repetition square wave connected to a primary winding. (Can be done in circuit)

HI John!
I can't help with the issues, but I do have a 549 carcass
that has a storage board still in it, if that would be any
help. Let me know.
