"Home made" LVDS controller board

(1/2) > >>

Darximor:
Hello,
Recently, my old TFT monitor die (Turn on for a second with a weird sound then it's going in stand by), two capacitors maybe blown
Anyway, keep this monitor broken was not worth it, so I decided to take it apart

I noticed that the driver board is verry similar to controller boards used to reuse screen of broken laptop, luckily the connector was the same as you can see in the second picture  ;D

The questions are :
-How to power the board (Because I'm pretty sure that this is the internal power supply of the monitor that failed), and more precisely what is "adj" ? (on the third picture)
-How to power the inverter of the laptop screen ? (the screen of the monitor was backlight directly from the power supply I think, according to the first picture)

Thank you  :)

jaycee:
ADJ is probably for adjusting the intensity of the backlight

Darximor:
Okay so I don't need to take care about this pin because this is the job of the inverter
How do you think that the on/off pin work ?

kjr18:
Do you have a pinout for this screen inverter? If no, you should search for it, you will need it. You might need both 5 and 12 volts to power a logic board, on off and adj pins might be needed for your laptop screen inverter as well, considering if it's this way to drive it.

Berni:
Well if the PSU is dead then you probably also won't get it to power the CCFL backlight.

So you need to fix this PSU or buy a PSU that can run the CCFL tubes and another PSU that can supply the CCFL driver with DC voltage as well as make the correct voltage for your LVDS driver board.

PSUs tend to use jelly bean parts so they are easy to fix if you know what you are doing. But don't attempt that unless you are experienced with mains voltage stuff, you can get some serious shocks out of it.
