Primary-secondary coupling capacitor in SMPS
What is the function of the primary-secondary coupling capacitor (eg
http://tinyurl.com/ha435) in a SMPS? I ask this because I suspect it may be the cause of a video "hum" issue. I have a new DVD player that gets along just fine with my 34cm TV but produces severe hum in the picture of my 80cm TV. The same TV works well with my other DVD player. I am considering removing the subject cap from my TV (the DVD is under warranty), but I'd like to know if there is any reason why I shouldn't. BTW, the TV is a gut-buster so I'd rather not move it unless I have to. FWIW, the symptom looks like common mode noise. - Franc Zabkar -- Please remove one 'i' from my address when replying by email. |
