Help needed to identify component in TDS460 power supply

[T3sl4co1l]

Hmm, might work.  Worried about the longer switching time, and maybe the lower hFE (but hFE isn't too high on the MJW part, either, so maybe the circuit will deal with that just fine).

I have a brand new S2000A which has quite similar characteristics as the BU508, but somewhat less  Amps than the  MJW16010A (8/15 vs 15/20   collector current ) . Do you think  I can  use it ?

I'd give it a try. The maximum Ic shouldn't be reached in such a circuit. If you can achive that some way, watch it for getting not too hot when running the scope.

Thanks for the comments.

Finally, I have ordered the MD2310FX (14A/21A)

As  I wish also to reduce the noise of the scope, thus to reduce the heat dissipated by the power supply, and  regulate the fan accordingly. I hope that this transistor will dissipate less than the previous one.

I've substituted the main primary transistor on the similar PS-1690 PSU with BU508AF and 2SD1887 without problems the BU508AF giving slightly better switching times.
Make sure you check the emitter resistor before powering-up again, failure to do so can lead to a lot of extra work.

Oh no!, you didn't have the opportunity to read this;

Likely now a few components;  fuse, varistor, main switching transistors + driver transistor, maybe the green module ETC...

The picture component is the Varistor [metal oxide varistor]. Try [130L10 from little fuse].

Edit: if I remember correctly, you don't need the varistor after the conversion.
Though I experienced this problem with the lecroy autorange circuit, I suspect your power supply is somewhat similar to it.

 

BTW, be careful the heatsinks are LIVE.

Help needed! My power supply didn't work it is two weeks ago i found it cracked ic cr18818 but i can't found at any store.have a similar of this?

Relax. I suggest you create a new thread with detailed description of your problems and photos.
Many people can help you.

Please use this thread only for matters related to the TDS460 power supply.

Thanks a lot for the effort ! This is great work.

I have now received  the components I ordered, and proceed to the remounting of the scope.
I replaced  all the electrolytic caps, except the 4700uF which I had not  received yet.
They were OK, anyway.

I put the MD2310FX. I had to drill an additional hole in the heatsink for that as it is slightly larger than the previous one.
I put a BY500-600 diode in series with the V150LA20BP.

Put the power on,
and everything is working again.

Thanks to all for the help, and in particular to lihach  for providing the right value of the varistor, and to capt bullshot  for telling me
about the potential problem of the MJW16010A transistor.

Congratulations, good job!
