Hi Folks
I have a monitor that went dark and discovered the the PC board was not outputting enough for the LED strips for the back lighting. I am searching for what type of external driver I can use to power these.
This is the part number 06-32C2X6-618-M08W14
There are 2 strips 24" long. 6 LEDs per strip with power connector in the middle of the strip. This is for a 32" display.
I have another display that works; with 9 LEDs per strip, the voltage across each LED was 5.86V and the PC board driver connector was 53 volts going to each strip.
On this display I discovered the two were in series. The PC board output was 33V and one of the capacitors was bulged out so I figured the driver output was done in.
So I was thinking (6 x 5.8v = 34.8v) for the strips. I took them out of series and connected them in parallel to a 24V supply and thought it would at least have them half bright.
Well that was a bad decision because it burned out the last LED on each strip after about 2 minutes.
I have ordered more light strips and plan to have another go at powering them with an external driver but I am having difficulty finding any details on the current or voltage specs
Thanks
