Genuine Samsung Cellphone Charger Repaired

By on October 16, 2012

Specification

Input :100-240 v AC   50-60Hz   0.15A

Output:  4.75  v DC  0.4 A

Made  in china

SMPS PRINCIPLES CHARGER CIRCUIT

charger repair

The circuit of this charger is designed  to run on two ac input voltages i.e the 100V and 240 V. The AC wide range input of 100-240 V is possible because of special diodes 4 X 1A7H were in use as bridge rectifiers. It can handle the voltages within tolerance of 100-300 volt AC. Of course the filter cap must also be able to support up to 400 VDC.

The problem of this charger was no dc output from the socket. From my previous repair experience the common fault for this type of charger were broken wire and socket.

The first thing I do was to soldered an AC wire cord to the AC terminal to turn on the charger so that I can check on the DC terminal output with a voltmeter. The reason I soldered the AC wire cord is because I have removed the cover and left only the circuit board.

VERY IMPORTANT NOTICE : Be careful with the AC 220V when handling this charger!!!!!

When I’d got 5 volt output at the DC terminal this means the wire have problem. Replacement with a new wire brought the charger back to life again.

    The following is badly worded:
    The circuit of this charger is designed  to run on two ac input voltages i.e the 100V and 240 V. The AC wide range input of 100-240 V is possible because of special diodes 4 X 1A7H were in use as bridge rectifiers. It can handle the voltages within tolerance of 100-300 volt AC. Of course the filter cap must also be able to support up to 400 VDC.

    Should be:

    The circuit of this charger is designed to run on a voltage from 100V  to 240 V. The wide AC range input of 100-240 V is possible because the circuit picks off a small portion of the waveform and the “area under the graph” represents the energy delivered to the output.
    The 1A7H diodes used in the bridge rectifier are rated at 400v and the filter cap must also be able to withstand up to 400 VDC.

    This is fantastic repair work. But at times it is the 400v capacitor that has swollen up . Thanks for sharing.

    Nice Post. sometimes we spend a lot of time looking at the componets not knowing that its just the wires that are brocken. This saves time. Thanks for informing us.

    Thanks Mr. Beh.
    Once again thanks for the post. It will help someone save a penny and also make some. A penny saved is much worth than a penny spent.

    HI MR JAMES
    yes. but this worth  more than a penny  because if you repair your genuine charger and not buy a immitation cheap  cellphone charger you saved your genuine battery and therefore you saved your  precious cellphone becasuse also immitation  cheap batteries are in the market . i refer you to two last articles in this subject
    thanks

    HI MR COLIN
    yes. in another words the AC input voltages directly solderd to diodes and these diodes can handel  AC  between 100-300 V  50/60 H z    . also the filter caps are supporting  this by thier value 4.7microfarad 400v
    thanks-beh

      Hi Teody,

      Since the charger already have problem there is no harm trying. Before that you have to make sure that the charger does not have any output. Open up the charger and begin to troubleshoot but make sure you know what you are doing because it involve live AC electricity.

    HI PETER
    like broken DC or AC  wire from the board or smoked diode or resistors or bulged filter caps and so andso.......

    HI RAMBO
    yes this is a  shottkey diode with 5 leg    and for sure is not one diodethis is several diodes in one package
    this need the diagram of this chip to answer correctly
