| DXV500ZS linear amplifier repair in Samway (2025/02/23) | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Diary for February 05, 2025but Samway's DXV500ZS linear amplifier is smoking and won't turn on!  |
||||
| The fuse is not blown, but one cement resistor is heating red when the switch is left ON. I emailed Mr. Ohashi at Samway. He diagnosed a broken 100 ohm cement resistor, a bad relay, and probably a bad FET in Q1! It was shipped via EMS on February 6 and arrived on February 21. This is still early.  |
||||
Arrived parts
|
||||
| I had trouble removing the relay. And the Chinese-made desoldering wire you can buy at mail-order stores in the Philippines doesn't suck it up at all. Pump-type desoldering equipment is not powerful enough So I had no choice but to destroy the relay and remove the terminals.  |
||||
As expected, one of the two cement resistors was broken. |
||||
The FETs are interchangeable 2N7000 and the arrangement of the legs is different, so this is what it looks like |
||||
| 2N7000 is a new part S (source) is in the same position, but G (gate) and D (drain) are in different positions.   |
||||
| I'm not sure if I'm getting presbyopia lately, but I can't see the small FET letters. I sent an email to Mr. Ohashi to see if the wiring of the compatible FET legs is correct, so I won't be able to energize it until Monday! |
