Boards that have failed in the field (with shorts) are often obvious, with holes in components and discoloration on the board where the short event occurred. The only use I have had for ShortSniffers on boards that have failed in the field was systems where the power supply had over-voltaged the ICs and melted most of the large scale logic (CPU, RAM, ROM, etc.). I was able to tell that current was going in to all of the VCC leads on all of the parts. With all of the parts shorted out, the board was not worthy of repair, since the cost of the individual parts was more than a replacement board.

ShortSniffers do work for SMD board components, and are good for tracing the short circuit currents on inner layers, since the pickup head senses the E/M field of the audio test current. Since the test current follows the path of least resistance, you can follow the sound to the short.

You can see the ShortSniffer in action at http://www.shortsniffer.com/ShortSniffing.htm , and you can even build your own similar device using the free plans at the bottom of the page:
http://www.shortsniffer.com/Competition.htm .

One requirement is that you must already know which two circuit nets are shorted together before you can tell where to inject the test current. This is usually done with an ohmmeter and/or oscilloscope.

If you are in a PC board production environment, the ShortSniffer is probably a good tool to have. If you are in a video game repair shop, or you have electronics as a hobby, then the ShortSniffer may be "overkill" for your needs. Take a look at the free plans (link above) to see if you can build your own ShortSniffer clone. If it meets your needs, then consider buying a ShortSniffer for the added convenience and extra performance of the optimized design.

Thanks for your consideration,
Carl

Hi Jan,

It is the same version except that the cover already changed. As for the LCD TV repair ebooks I suggest that you visit this link:

I do not have the LCD TV repair ebook.
