Buying a PS1 screen circuit board

Post by Designer noob »

The tittle pretty much tells it all. I am buying a PS1 screen circuit board not the screen (only the board) since mine is broken.

Pm me with price.

If I don't get a PS1 screen I will sending it to robm to see if he can fix it. I rather have the cost of shipping go to the circuit board then to the shipping of a screen that only has a 10% chance of working.

Did you break a part off the screen or fry it? I found a fix for when you blow the protection diode on the screen (too much voltage, or when it lets out smoke)

lol, you might have saved me 50 dollars.
Let me explain what happened and you tell me if you can fix the issue.

All the chips are care really capacitors I believe, which I learned later.
Also, I believe the capacitor was betweena negative and positive.

One day, I was soldering the composite video cable onto the back of the screen can't remember why.
If you look at the guides on how to do this. You place the composite wire right below a little tiny chip.
Which, is located in the top right of the screen on the back of the board. Not the one on the bottom of the board.
Well, I burnt off the chip right above it. They have a little letter like N printed on them. They are like a cm long (Very Tiny). I also, burnt of the one next to it on the right.
Well, I found one of the little chips out of the two. I don't know which was for which, but I put the one I found back on the composite bridge.
I turned it on to see if it worked and it did, but the text that tells you to please plug in a controller was scrolling up and down the screen like there was no ground.
So, I thought to my self maybe if I bridged the other two pins that are missing the little chip to connect them together. Maybe it will stop scrolling and start working.
So, I bridged the pins and it stated to smoke. I turned the power off within like 1 second. So, it was on for like a total of 3 seconds.
I unbridged the two pins and now it doesn't work at all. The screen still powers up though.

If you need any more information or better explanations don't hesitate to ask.

Hello,
Which part of the circuit board do you need exactly?
I have a screen here that is fully operational except
for the fact that the connection points on the RGB
input on the small daughter board used plugging
the device into the PS1 are lifted up. Meaning
you can't really solder a wire into them
anymore if that makes since.

Everything else seems OK. This was originally
purchased brand new. I guess I just used to
suck at at soldering years ago (give me a
break I was a very young teen at the time
these screens originally came out lol).

It comes with the original box and power supply.
Thanks.

if he never comes back I just saw this on ebay.
Almost as if it was put up for auction just for you.
