Re: Blank Screen
Date: 22 Oct 00 19:16:10 EDT From: Tom Manson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Blank Screen Hi folks, Those of you who are interested, I have some minor news to report and some questions (for those of more experience with the Libretto than myself). To recap and provide some background for the following, my Libretto (50ct) has had a screen failure such that the screen flashes at me when it is first turned on, and does not show any signs of displaying anything until the next time it is turned on. I can put the Lib on the docking station and plug a monitor into it and the monitor works fine, so it is the LCD-related circuitry that is at fault. Now here's what's cookin' lately: I disassembled the screen enclosure (some of you probably saw the graphics I uploaded to the list), and measured the voltage of the "backlight" power supply." [I put that in quotes, because what I found doesn't realy indicate a backlight as much as it does an electro-luminescence circuit or charge-related device.] Some one told me to expect 50 - 150 volts (I didn't recall if they specified ac or dc), so not knowing the expected polarity, I set the meter I had for 600vdc. At first the meter dipped below 0 regardless of the way I applied the probes, thus indicating an ac voltage (no wonder the wires were colored white and blue instead of red and black). So I switch the meter to 600vac and got a more accurate reading, at least it showed the true significance of the circuit. It pegged the meter! I would assume that the actualy output voltage fo that circuit is around 1000vac! I can't measure anything above 600v without rigging up some kind of a voltage divider circuit. So, unless the output is supposed to be dc and I have a failed rectifier or two, that power output looks good to me. The next step in the process then is determining what is actually bad and in need of replacement. It appears to me that the little circuit card identified as "FL INBERTER" [sic] on the left edge of the screen (I don't have the part number handy, but it is on the drawing and parts list that I got somewhere online - and from whence came the name I quoted above) is the faulty part since it appears to house both the "backlight" and other signal decoding electronics. The next question (assuming that is the faulty part), is where can I get one of these little guys and how much will it cost. I guess another question I would ask is is it somehow matched to the LCD screen such that the screen needs to be replaced along with the circuit card. I can't believe that the latter is true, but there might be some trimming required once the two are mated. If it isn't the little FL INBERTER, (in other words if the fault is in some other LCD circuitry located out of range of what I could see) I'm not going to know that. If you guys happen to now if and where other LCD circuitry is housed, please let me know. Any assistance along these lines would be apprecited, whether it be opinion or knowledge.

This glow is fairly solid color, but there is some hint of streaking going on as well. The lower half glow lasts at most 1 second, then the entire screen goes blank never to brighten again until the computer is cycled on and off.

At this time, I'd test it with a monitor to make sure the graphics subsection is working okay, then disassembly the unit to have a look at the connectors and such around the LCD panel area to see if there are any quick fixes by making sure contact is good. Of course, if it's only the backlight, that should be under $100 at www.micsol.com. If it's the expensive LCD, time to go Ebay shopping as the replacement cost out of warranty is about the same as a used Libretto. = adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ __ Do You Yahoo!?

I have never seen that name Chien other than that time and I am just curious.
