Richtige Fernseher haben Röhren!

In Brief: On this site you will find pictures and information about some of the electronic, electrical and electrotechnical Obsolete technology relics that the Frank Sharp Private museum has accumulated over the years .
Premise: There are lots of vintage electrical and electronic items that have not survived well or even completely disappeared and forgotten.

Or are not being collected nowadays in proportion to their significance or prevalence in their heyday, this is bad and the main part of the death land. The heavy, ugly sarcophagus; models with few endearing qualities, devices that have some over-riding disadvantage to ownership such as heavy weight,toxicity or inflated value when dismantled, tend to be under-represented by all but the most comprehensive collections and museums. They get relegated to the bottom of the wants list, derided as 'more trouble than they are worth', or just forgotten entirely. As a result, I started to notice gaps in the current representation of the history of electronic and electrical technology to the interested member of the public.

Following this idea around a bit, convinced me that a collection of the peculiar alone could not hope to survive on its own merits, but a museum that gave equal display space to the popular and the unpopular, would bring things to the attention of the average person that he has previously passed by or been shielded from. It's a matter of culture. From this, the Obsolete Technology Tellye Web Museum concept developed and all my other things too. It's an open platform for all electrical Electronic TV technology to have its few, but NOT last, moments of fame in a working, hand-on environment. We'll never own Colossus or Faraday's first transformer, but I can show things that you can't see at the Science Museum, and let you play with things that the Smithsonian can't allow people to touch, because my remit is different.

There was a society once that was the polar opposite of our disposable, junk society. A whole nation was built on the idea of placing quality before quantity in all things. The goal was not “more and newer,” but “better and higher" .This attitude was reflected not only in the manufacturing of material goods, but also in the realms of art and architecture, as well as in the social fabric of everyday life. The goal was for each new cohort of children to stand on a higher level than the preceding cohort: they were to be healthier, stronger, more intelligent, and more vibrant in every way.

The society that prioritized human, social and material quality is a Winner. Truly, it is the high point of all Western civilization. Consequently, its defeat meant the defeat of civilization itself.

Today, the West is headed for the abyss. For the ultimate fate of our disposable society is for that society itself to be disposed of. And this will happen sooner, rather than later.

OLD, but ORIGINAL, Well made, Funny, Not remotely controlled............. and not Made in CHINA.

Many contemporary "televisions" (more correctly named as displays) would not have this level of staying power, many would ware out or require major services within just five years or less and of course, there is that perennial bug bear of planned obsolescence where components are deliberately designed to fail and, or manufactured with limited edition specificities..... and without considering........picture......sound........quality........

REFERENCE TABLE OF TRANSISTOR FOR HORIZONTAL / LINE SCAN FOR CRT MONITORS AND CRT TELEVISIONS



CRT TVs and most computer and video monitors depend on the use of similar (at least in concept) LINE DEFLECTION circuit configurations to generate several outputs:

 Current waveform required in the deflection yoke coils of the CRT for linear sweep of the electron beam to create a high quality (geometry and linearity) picture. This is close to a sawtooth but not quite.
 CRT High voltage (20 to 30 kV or more) required to accelerate the electron beam and provide high brightness and sharp focus, as well as other related voltages - focus and screen (G2).
 Various auxiliary power and signals for other subsystems of the equipment (low voltage, CRT filament, feedback, etc.).

  Every line transistor has its own requirements for:

  • Amount of base drive current, especially the Ib at end-of-scan.
  • Waveform of base drive current (rising, steady, falling)
  • Speed of reduction base drive current at switch-off.
The most effort goes into the optimization of the magnitude of the base drive current. The problem is: gain spread. In the ideal world, all transistors would come from the factory with exactly the same gain. In the real world, this isn't the case - it isn't even close. You have to find *one* optimum drive so that neither the high-gain nor the low-gain type will dissipate too much power taking into consideration the variations in other circuit components as well. There used to be other spread factors influencing the dynamic transistor parameters but fortunately, these have been mostly eliminated by better process control.
  • Overdriving causes a slow switch-off behavior, some collector current keeps flowing during the beginning of the flyback and will cause dissipation.
  • Underdriving causes bad saturation, the collector voltage will start to rise before the flyback should start. This too causes dissipation.
Either condition is easily observed with an oscilloscope, a current probe and a 1:100 voltage probe (be sure to calibrate it for high frequency response!). The dissipation as a function of the base drive current is a more-or-less parabolic function with a global minimum. The minimum will be different for high-gain and low-gain types. By measuring the curves for both extreme types and combining them, an optimum drive for the random type will be found, with a figure for the worst-case dissipation.

All this will only be true if you insert a device which is a member of the population spread for which you optimized the base drive. If you just insert a random other device (different type, same type but different brand, same type and brand but much older/newer batch) then all bets are off. Dissipation may be way too high, with early failure as a result (and possibly a distorted picture geometry due to excess damping of the waveform).
It is certainly not possible to substitute a standard HOT (BU508) in place of a more advanced type (in >> 15 kHz applications like a monitor). It is also a very bad idea to substitute a BU508 in place of a much lighter type like a BUT11 (used in <= 17" sets). It will fail! 


With horizontal output transistors, it is *not* true that 'bigger is better'. If you substitute a heavier transistor (more amps, more volts, more watts, faster switching, whatever) for a lighter one, then there is a very big chance that it will fail earlier, not later. The reason is that the drive conditions will now be wrong (most likely underdrive) and the transistor will overheat from too high conduction losses (Ic * Vce,sat). So do yourselves a favour and get a correct replacement type. 

If cost weren't an issue, transistors and other parts could be hand selected (and some are in any case). But, you wouldn't be able to buy a monitor for $$$  if that were required!

Is there a Universal HOT Replacement for TVs?

WARNING: As noted elsewhere in this document, the following approach is much less likely to work with long term (or even more than a few millisecond) reliability in high performance computer monitors. I shouldn't say this, but, for a number of years ago used a  universal Horizontal Output Transistor 2SC1308K or NTE238. This worked in almost every set out there that used a transistor and not SCR's (RCA, etc.). This may not be the best way of substituting, but, these 2 part numbers seem to have fairly high gain, power capability, voltage ratings, current ratings, etc. These characteristics made it a good substitute and when you buy 100 at a time you would get a really good price................

 This may not work in your case...............


 Is There a Universal HOT Replacement for Monitors?

 "Would anyone like to comment on BU508's, they should be to the same spec. and born equal. My experience has been that different manufacturers BU508's behave differently. One make will fry and last about 3 weeks, put in a different make, no circuit change, and it runs cool, and is still running 3 years later. Price doesn't seem to be a guide, a $1 one may run cool and have no mfr. code, while a branded one might cost a lot more and run hot."
Yes, here you have the problem exactly!


There is such a thing as component spread. Base drive must be optimized for the whole range of gain within a type. That range can be so large that at the limits of the spread the dissipation can still be too large. The reason is that the device with the largest gain will be overdriven, causing a tail in the current at switch-off, whereas the device with the smallest gain will be underdriven, causing it not too saturate enough. Each condition can be easily viewed on the 'scope. By varying the base drive you can minimize dissipation.............................


Normally one basedrive is set for the entire population, accepting the variation in dissipation and its upper limit. Sometimes the variation is so large that this will not be acceptable. But this is unlikely for a BU508 in a 16 kHz application. Substituting it with a similar type from a different brand with different parameter spread may indeed cause it to dissipate too much and thus fail early. This has nothing to do with price or quality, just with a different optimum base drive. If base drive has been optimized for a brand with low parameter spread then it can be that the heatsink may have correctly been selected smaller..........................................




Typical Types of HOTs Used in Monitors:

14", SVGA (38 kHz)         A-types: BU2508AF, 2SC4830,  2SC5148.

                           D-types: BU2508DF, 2SC4762,  2SC4916,  2SC5149,
                                    2SC4291,  2SC5250.

15", XVGA (64 kHz)         A-types: BU2520AF, BU2522AF, 2SC3885A, 2SC3886A,
                                    2SC4757,  2SC4758,  2SC5129,  2SC4438,
                                    2SC4770,  2SC4743,  2SC5067,  2SC5207,
                                    2SC5251,  2SC5002.

                           D-types: BU2520DF, 2SC3892A, 2SC3893A, 2SC4531,
                                    2SC4763,  2SC4124,  2SC4769,  2SC5296,
                                    2SC4742,  2SC4744,  2SC4927,  2SC5003.


 Note that transistors with built-in damper diodes also are likely to have a base to emitter resistor of about 50 ohms - keep this in mind when testing a HOT with a multimeter - that 50 ohm resistor will look like a shorted junction on the diode test scale.

In nearly all the above cases, the devices will plug-in substitute for each other within a category.

For designs with larger screen sizes (and higher frequencies) the device selection is not so straightforward as some designs which split the horizontal deflection and high voltage generation circuitry.

Continuous dissipation is hardly ever the cause of failure. Failure is usually due to some infrequent transient condition. For multi-frequency monitor designs of 1991-1994 mode-change was/is a big killer. When repairs are made it is wise to cycle through a mode-change sequence. Delays of about 1 min. between changes should be used, shorter delays can cook the device.

    As a rule, once an engineer has a bad experience with mode change he takes greater care in the small-signal circuitry of his next design. This has led to mode change, in general, becoming more benign in the last couple of years. However, in Taiwan & Korea there is a high turn round of engineering staff and some, shall we say, less than perfect designs do still reach production...................................

    To "cook" a device by mode changing would take at least 30 mins. of continuous changing with a delay of about 20 seconds between each change.................................

    If a device fails during such a sequence the old spit test is good indicator of why a device fails. That is, a drop of spit on the HOT immediately after failure can tell us a lot: if it sizzles, then the device has probably cooked, if it doesn't then the device failed instantly after one stressful cycle. Frontiers of technology it is isn't but it is a useful technique.

    If you do get failures which haven't been caused by...................... the HOT "cooking"............................................................................ no easy solution...................


Varieties of BU508 HOTs..............

 BU508 series seem to come in a number of variants, I haven't sorted out the specification for each listed variant, but have found that it's worth trying replacements by different manufacturers. Also if the device is on a grounded piece of metal as heatsink try adding another radiator (twisted vane is my preference). Some TV manufacturers introduce post production mods to change resistance values to provide more drive into the base, this may be in the base or emitter. Scope the waveform for parasitic high frequency oscillation and check that the waveform looks clean. Check voltage rails, supply and derived, and that the set is not over scanning. Check all the components around the horizontal output stage, it may be the manufacturer. had a duff batch of some component (often a capacitor that goes OC) that keeps failing which then stresses the BU508.
 

When looking for suitable transistor replacements it is necessary to look at the main specifications for the transistor. Once the transistor specifications and parameters have been ascertained, it is possible to check for other replacement transistor types with similar parameters that will be able to operate within the circuit in question.
When considering any possible replacement transistors, it is necessary to look at a variety of parameters. These will include the basic parameters of the transistor operation performance. They will also include the environmentally related parameters, and the physical parameters. All these need to be taken into account when choosing a suitable replacement transistor.

What is This Diode Across My HOT?
It is called a damper diode and is essential to proper operation of the TV's or monitor's horizontal deflection as well as to the continued life and happiness of the HOT. Using an HOT with an internal damper is OK even if there is a separate one in the circuit. The other way around (leaving it out entirely) will likely result in instant - i.e., single scan - destruction of the HOT. This is because in modern deflection system designs, the damper carries the horizontal yoke current for a significant portion of the scan. If it is not present, the HOT will be forced to try to eat this current - in reverse - across C-E.

The damper is a special high voltage fast recovery type of diode - a 1N400x type will not work in its place.

BTW, many of these HOTs have a D after the part number to indicate that they have the internal damper and include a B-E resistor (which may confuse transistor testing) of about 50 ohms. However, the D is not a sure indication of an internal damper - nor is its absence an indication of a lack thereof. The entire part number must be checked to be sure.


What is This Funny Capacitor (or Capacitors) Across My HOT?
These may go by the name flyback, high voltage, snubber, or deflection capacitors. When the HOT is shut off, the current flowing in the inductance of the flyback primary and horizontal deflection yoke cannot be stopped instantly. These capacitors provide a place for this current to go and is part of a tuned circuit (in combination with the flyback and yoke) which needed to accomplish the flyback function.

If this capacitor is open or missing, excessive flyback voltage will result probably killing the HOT. If the HOT does not fail, the result will likely be greatly increased high voltage. Should the X-ray protection circuitry not shut down the deflection, there could be internal or external arcing and/or destruction of components like the flyback or tripler.

For proper operation and continued safety, only proper exact replacements should be used for these parts.


Typical HOT Dissipation:
Just measuring the actual power dissipation in a HOT is not trivial due to the nasty shapes of the voltage and current waveforms. You can't do this with your DMM! A couple of ways of doing this are:

  •     Monitor the voltage and current waveforms for the HOT. Integrate the instantaneous measured V*I over the duration of one scan line and multiply by the horizontal scan rate.
  •     Mount the HOT and a fixed power resistor on identical heat sinks so that their thermal enviroments are the same. Then, adjust the current through the resistor (and thus its power dissipation) so that the temperature rise of the heat sinks for the two are equal.

Here are some measured values for TV HOTs with optimized drive:

(From: David, a Philips application engineer).................

    14-21", 16 kHz: About 1 W      (some have the HOT running in free-air)
    21-36", 16 kHz: Less than 2 W  (some new large CRT's only need 9 A p-p)
    25-36", 32 kHz: Less than 4 W  (dissipation really is prop. to frequency)

I am sure I don't need to tell you that the dissipation varies with the type of HOT used and the drive.


Why Do Apparently Similar or Better HOTs Sometimes Run Hot and Blow?
 
It is often surprising that replacing a horizontal output transistor with one that has overall better specifications does not work out - it may run hot and fail.

There is more to characterizing a transistor than just maximum voltage, current, and power dissipation.

One important parameter is current gain: Too low a gain for a particular operating point may result in incomplete turn-on during scan resulting in high dissipation. You want the transistor to be in the fully saturated state. A larger HOT is more likely to have a lower current gain.

If you read the app notes put out by the manufacturers like Motorola you will also find that fast turn off based drive (negative step) is actually not what you want since this traps excess carriers in the high resistivity collector region which leads to continued conduction and heating. The ideal waveform also provide adequate drive during scan but not excessive overdrive and is thus an increasing ramp to account for the increasing collector current during scan.

Characteristics like this are not dealt with by the basic specs but can differ substantially among otherwise similar transistors.


****** When looking for a suitable transistor replacement some of the basic transistor parameters that need to be considered include the following:

  1. Semiconductor material used:   Most transistors will either be germanium or silicon. Other types are normally only used in very specialist applications. It is important to know what type the transistor is because there is a difference in the base emitter forward bias voltage drop. For germanium it is around 0.2 - 0.3 volts and for silicon it is around 0.6 volts. The circuit will be designed around a particular voltage drop.
  2. Polarity:   It is absolutely imperative to find out whether the transistor is either NPN or PNP variety. Install the incorrect type and it experience the inverse of all the voltages it would expect and is likely to be destroyed.
  3. General application:   Although it is not always necessary to exactly match the intended purpose for the transistor, a variety of areas of its performance will be tailored to its intended applications. Possible application types may include: switching, analogue, low power, RF amplifier, low noise, etc. Put in the correct type and it may not perform well. For example a low power general-purpose transistor is unlikely to work well in a switching application even if it has a high ft or frequency limit.
  4. Package and pin-out:   Transistors have many packages. It is often necessary to match the replacement transistor package as closely as possible to enable the transistor to physically fit. Also the package may give an indication of other parameters.
  5. Voltage breakdown:   It is necessary to make sure that the transistor is able to withstand the voltages it is likely to see. Transistor parameters such as Vceo, etc need to be checked.
  6. Current gain:   , The current gain parameter of a transistor normally has a very wide spread. This is normally quoted as Β or hfe. Although they are slightly different, for all circuit equivalences of this nature these transistor parameters are the same. Choosing a replacement transistor with approximately the same current gain is necessary. Normally it is not a problem to choose a replacement transistor with a higher gain. Often a lower current gain may be acceptable.
  7. Frequency limit:   The upper frequency limit for a transistor is normally quoted as its ft. It is normally important to ensure that the transistor can meet any frequency limits.
  8. Power dissipation:   It is necessary to ensure that the replacement transistor can dissipate sufficient power. Often the package type is a good indication of this.

These are the main parameters that are of importance in most applications, but be on the look out for any other transistor parameters that may need to be included in the selection of the replacement transistor.Picking a replacement transistor
When choosing a suitable replacement transistor for use within an electronic circuit, there are several stages that must be considered when making the choice. These can be progressed in a logical order to narrow down the choice and enable the best alternative for the replacement transistor to be made.


Step by step instructions:

  1. Choose a transistor of the same polarity:   The first major selection criterion is whether the transistor is PNP or NPN.
  2. Select a replacement transistor of the same material:   Most transistors are either silicon or germanium. As bias voltages and other features are different it is necessary to select a replacement transistor with the same material.
  3. Select the same functional type of transistor:   Transistors are normally given an indication of their application in the datasheets. The replacement should have the same application if possible.
  4. Choose a replacement with the same package:   Choosing a replacement transistor with the same package and pin-out will mean that many of the characteristics including power capability are the same. Ensuring with pin-out is the same (most but not all transistors have their leads in order - EBC) will save many problems with fitting.
  5. Select a replacement transistor with the same breakdown voltage:   Ensure that figures for VCEO and VCBO etc are at least as high as the original transistor.
  6. Check it can take the current:   Ensure that the replacement transistor can pass the required current - it should have an ICmax greater than or equal to the original transistor.
  7. Select a transistor with a similar Hfe:   It is necessary to ensure that the current gain of the replacement transistor is about the same as the original. Current gain values normally vary widely even for transistors of the same type so some variation will be acceptable.
  8. Select a replacement transistor with equivalent Ft:   It is necessary to ensure that the replacement transistor will be able to operate at the relevant frequencies, so a similar or slightly higher Ft is advisable. Don't go for a transistor with a much higher Ft as this may increase the risk of oscillation.
  9. Choose a transistor with a similar power dissipation :   It is necessary to ensure that the replacement transistor can handle the power that it will dissipate within the circuit. Choosing a replacement transistor with a similar can style will often mean that both transistors have a similar power dissipation.
  10. Check for any special features:   While ensuring the features above are selected, there may be some additional features that need to be considered. These are normally required when transistors are used in specialist applications.


Once the choice of replacement transistor has been made, then it can be installed in the circuit, and the performance checked. In most cases it will operate satisfactorily, but occasionally there may be a problem. If this is the case, it is necessary to re-visit the way in which the choice of the replacement transistor was made and see if any mistakes were made or look for other parameters that may affect the operation of the transistor circuit.

What if I can't find the original transistor details?


Sometimes it is very easy to find out the parameters of a particular transistor as it may be possible to find them on the Internet or in a transistor data book. If this is not possible, either because the markings are not visible, or the data cannot be found, then not all is lost. It is still possible to find out a lot about the transistor from its package and also the circuit in which it is being used. In this way it is usually possible to find a suitable replacement transistor. The step by step instructions below should help the essential parameters of the transistor to be discovered.

Step by step instructions:

These instructions are set out in an approximate order of the most significant parameters first followed by the less significant ones:
  1. Is it a transistor?   This may appear to be an obvious question, but occasionally some devices may appear to be a transistor at first sight. It may be a field effect transistor, a Darlington transistor or even some other form of device. Alternatively, sometimes small voltage regulators are contained in packages similar to that of a transistor. Other devices may also appear in what may appear to be transistor packages at first sight. Careful examination of the application will enable this to be verified.
  2. Silicon or germanium:   It is important to find out whether the transistor is silicon or germanium. It may be possible to discover this in a number of ways. If the original transistor is still working then this can be discovered by measuring the voltage across the base emitter junction when it is forward biased. This should be about 0.2 to 0.3 volts for a germanium transistor and 0.6 volts for other varieties. Alternatively it may be possible to ascertain the type by looking at other transistors in the circuit. Often the same technology will be used throughout the equipment. This is not always true so beware!
  3. Power dissipation:   This is often defined by the package in which the transistor is placed. Look at the specifications for other transistors in the same packages and this will give a good guide. Those packages designed for mounting on heatsinks will be more variable because they can often dissipate more power dependent upon the heatsink. It is best to be more cautious with these packages.
  4. Maximum voltage:   An idea of the maximum voltage can be gained from the circuit in which it is used. To be on the safe side, ensure the maximum operating voltage of the replacement transistor is at least twice the rail voltage of the circuit in which it is operating
  5. Current gain:   The current gain of transistors is notoriously difficult to specify. High power transistors often offer lower gains - older power transistor types may be as low as 20 - 50, whereas the smaller transistors may offer gains anywhere between 50 and 1000.
  6. Maximum frequency:   It is necessary to make sure that the replacement transistor is able to operate at the required frequency. Look at the components in the circuit and the function of the circuit. It is usually possible to estimate the frequency of operation. Then take this and choose a replacement transistor that can easily operate at this frequency.
  7. Anything else:   Although most of the main points have been covered in the points above, it is always best to be on the look out for other parameters that may affect the choice of transistor replacement. This is particularly true for specialised circuits where some specific performance features may be critical.

Summary


Choosing a replacement transistor is normally quite easy. There is a huge number of transistor types available, and the specifications of many types of transistor overlap, making the choice of a replacement transistor quite easy in many instances.

Being able to choosing a replacement transistor can be very useful if the exact transistor type is not available easily. It is quite likely that a similar one may be available to hand, or possibly from a local stockist. In either case, it is useful to be able to choose the replacement transistor with a good possibility of it being able to work.
