HORIZONTAL STAGES IN HI-RESOLUTION CRT VIDEO DISPLAYS 1. Horizontal Output - Produces current in flyback and/or yoke resulting in HV and/or deflection 2. B+ Power Supply - Powers horizontal output & driver stages with voltage ranging 30-190 volts. 3. HV/Deflection Regulator - Varies B+ to horizontal output to keep HV and/or deflection constant. 4. Horizontal OSC/AFC - Generates sync-locked drive at the horizontal scanning frequency. 5. Horizontal Driver Stage - Amplifies weak drive to level needed by the horizontal output transistor. 6. X-Ray Shutdown - Disables horizontal output stage by removing drive or B+ when the HV is at an unsafe level.

Switched by mode control as horizontal scanning frequency (resolution) increased.
Understanding Horizontal Troubleshooting Difficulties Technicians indicate more than 50% of failures are horizontal related. * Excessive horizontal current (loading) decreases the SMPS output voltage (limiting) or damages SMPS circuitry. * Excessive horizontal output current stresses or burns out, HOTs, HV/defl. Regulator & SMPS components. * A flyback or horiz. yoke shorted turnor flyback secondary circuit short cause excessive current (loading) not evident with ohmmeter. * HV/deflection regulator interacts with horizontal output stage. * Horiz. Drive defects cause horizontal output transistor heating often resulting in failures. * Flyback pulses feed back to AFC, these circuit loops can cause unusual drive and picture symptoms. * X-ray shutdown results in momentary operation with no effective means to make measurements to isolate the cause.
HA2500 Universal Horizontal Analyzer Features * Chassis Off Horizontal Output Stage Load Test: Isolates defects with power off (PS loading, shutdown, HOT burn outs). * Dynamic Horizontal Output “METER”: Tests output operation & finds horizontal drive and B+ supply problems. * Exclusive Horiz Driver Test: Measures driver stage output current- detects weak drive or intermittent drive. * Horizontal Output Transistor Base or Gate Sub Drive:Subs missing or suspect drive to prove output stage good or bad. * Substitute B+ Power Supply: Subs chassis B+ supply to isolate SMPS, HV/Defl. Regulator, X-ray, or output stage. * Flyback, Yoke & Coil Ringer Tester: Determines is component good or bad from a shorted turn(s).
Horizontal Output Load Test Introduction Provides a functional test of the horizontal output stage at the proper frequency & 1/10th B+ voltage to detect loading (high B+ current) and defects that do not permit power on testing. Benefits: Identify horizontal output stage defects before replacing and burning out replacement output and P.S. parts. Quickly determine if horizontal output stage defects exist before applying AC voltage. Determine if the horizontal output stage is the cause of PS defects or improper operation.

Load Test Setup Guides you to setting frequency & 1/10 B+ voltage to test the horizontal output stage. Confirms proper load test with VPP readout. 1. Remove AC to chassis - start with LOAD TEST B+ VOLTS at “MIN.” 2. Connect the LOAD/RINGER test leads to proper chassis points. 3. Set the LOAD & RINGER TEST Switch to “LOAD TESTS SETUP.” 4. Set the HORIZONTAL FREQUENCY COARSE and FINE Controls for a frequency near the displays highest horizontal scanning frequency. 5. Increase the LOAD TEST B+ VOLTS Control to approximately 1/10 of the normal B+ to the horizontal output stage. 6. Read the VPP readout - 1/10 of normal - 100VPP typical.
ANALYZING THE HORIZONTAL OUTPUT STAGE Load Tests Readouts
Typical uS range or horizontal pulse times for multi-frequency (resolution) video displays. A display’s pulse time should be in the range of its highest horizontal scanning frequency or scan format capability.
Relationship of flyback pulse to horizontal blanking interval in under- scan and over- scan displays. Horiz. Flyback pulse is retrace time which occurs during video horiz. blanking interval.
Ringer Test Provides a test to determine if the flyback or yoke has a shorted turn defect. * Confirms if flyback, yoke or coil must be replaced. * Saves time replacing components and doing added testing to determine flyback, yoke or coil is defective. * Proves the flyback, yoke or coil does not have a shorted turn and repair is likely feasible.
To Ringer Test a Flyback 1. Remove AC to the chassis 2. Set the Load & Ringer Tests Switch to “Yokes & Flybacks.” 3. Connect the Ringer/Load Test leads to the primary winding. (Use the orange and black test lead clips) 4. Read the rings indicated by the HA2500 center display. Note: 10 or more rings indicates the flyback does not have a shorted turn. Rings less than 10 indicate a shorted turn.
DYNAMIC TESTS - METER Provides automatic measurements at horizontal output transistor to ID horizontal drive, B+ supply or horizontal output stage symptoms and defects. Check horizontal drive VPP and Freqeuncy. Check for missing or improper B+ volts. Check for horizontal output stage flyback pulse VPP. Check flyback pulse time in uS automatically.
To Use the Dynamic Tests Meter 1. Remove AC to the chassis 2. Connect the Dynamic Tests Leads 3. Set the Dynamic Tests Switch to “Collector Or Drain.” 4. Apply AC to the chassis. 5. Read the DCV, VPP and uS readouts in the center display. 6. Set the Dynamic Tests Swtich to “Base or Gate.” 7. Read the kHz and VPP readouts in the center display.
Horizontal Driver Test A measurement of the output current capability of the horizontal driver stage. The test simulates a base/emitter HOT junction and measures output current during positive drive cycle. Benefits * Determines if the base drive current is adequate for normal HOT function. *Indicates when driver stage is suspect of HOT heating or repeat failures. * Displays drive current to ID intermittent drive defects without damaging replacement horizontal output transistors.
HORIZONTAL DRIVER & OUTPUT STAGE The horizontal driver stage produces output drive current to the base/emitter junction of the horizontal output stage. Defects reduce this current causing H.O.T. heating, failures and improper horizontal output stage operation.
Methods used to control driver stage output current with horizontal scan frequency changes. Adjust V+ to Driver Stage Switch resistance in base of H.O.T
How To Perform the Horiz. Driver Test 1. Remove AC voltage - unsolder H.O.T. base or open base circuit path. 2. Connect Dynamic Test Leads 3. Set DYNAMIC TESTS Switch to “HORIZ. DRIVER TEST.” 4. Apply AC voltage to chassis - Push Power switch to ON. 5. Push & Hold the HORIZ DRIVER TEST OR SUB DRIVE Pushbutton. 6. Read the mA reading & compare to typical mA range chart.
Base Sub Drive & Gate Subdrive Provides substitute horizontal drive, optimized to drive the base (bipolar output) or gate (MOSFET output) transistor. Subs for missing or suspect horizontal drive to test the horizontal output stage or to isolate subtle reduced deflection, noises or unusual picture horizontal tearing defects.
Display Before & During Base or Gate Sub Drive Be sure Frequency matches signal source. Be sure B+ voltage is proper or regulated. During Subbing collector DCV, VPP puse uS readings are displayed.
Substitute Horiz. Drive To The Base or Gate of Horizontal Output Transistor (Base -Bipolor, Gate - MOSFET)
Block Diagram of HA2500 Base Sub Drive Output drive current is dynamically adjusted.
To Substitute Base Drive to the Horizontal Output Transistor (Bipolar) 1. With AC power removed unsolder the Horiz. Output transistor base or open base circuit path. 2. Connect Dynamic Test Leads - Blue to base of H.O.T. Yellow to H.O.T collector, Black to Horiz. Ground. 3. Set the Dynamic Test Swtich to “Base Sub Drive.” 4. Apply AC to the chassis and read the DCV readout to confirm proper B+. 5. Read the display kHz readout to confirm the proper drive frequency. 6. Push & hold the Horiz. Driver Test or Sub Drive push button. 7. Read the DCV, VPP and uS readouts to test the horizontal output stage. Note: Proper readings indicate normal output stage operation.
SUBSTITUTE B+ SUPPLY A variable DCV power supply to substitute for the B+ voltage to the horizontal output stage or to the HV/Deflection regulator. Determines if the horizontal output stage is good or bad by subbing for a dead or suspect B+ power supply. Isolates defects to B+ supply, regulator, or horizontal output stage. Permits slowly increasing B+ voltage to isolate HV breakdown failures, troubleshoot current shutdown and regulation defects. Isolate X-ray or HV shutdown symptoms.I
