Nikkai N64AU 12V inverter to mains
Dropped on hard floor and now just 1/2 second LED illumination.
No sophisticated chippery inside, an LM324 and 2x TL494, no SMD unless under something. No obviously failed solder joints of big lumps or elsewhere , no cracked pcb. 4 IRF740 and 4x RFPN06 and a 7812 complete the main active stuff, what would be most likely mechanical failure inside? DIP IC, transistor, diode, other? |

Anywhere there is heat at such a connection, irrespective of the angle-of-force. This will be something that bright light and a magnifying glass will reveal along with the usual 'wiggle-it-a-little". And, as you are not getting _any_ symptoms, I suspect more towards the input side of things. Peter Wieck Melrose Park, PA |

Nikkai N65AU 12V inverter to mains
Dropped on hard floor and now just 1/2 second LED illumination. cracked ferrite core causing over current fault? those things usually both sides of the output outlet differential relative to chassis ground and they have a kind of ground fault sensor to shut the inverter off if there is any significant flow to the ground pin. m |
