Course Code: AER01 (Level 2)
Course Length: 3 days
INTRODUCTION
This course is tailored to individuals who wish to learn the Advanced Repair Techniques in Electronics Troubleshooting.
Who Should Attend This Course?
The Advanced Electronics Repair Course is targeted to those already have 3 years experiences in electronics repair and had completed the level 1 Basic Electronics Troubleshooting And Repair Course. They can be IT Managers, IT Engineers, IT Lecturers, Technicians, Technical College Students, Electronic Hobbyists or Computer Owners.
Benefits After Attending This Course:
After you have attended this course, you will be able to:
- Understand how Switch Mode Power Supplies (SMPS) Work-(Flyback Converter Topology)
- Read SMPS Schematic Diagrams and able to recognize all the different sections (hardware) in power supplies confidently.
- Understand why a power supply will have decreasing/increasing (unstable) output voltage and power blink problem the moment you turn it On.
- Understand why the output measure good but the power supply immediately shutdown when the load is connected
- Start to troubleshoot a power supply with no blown parts
- Use DC ammeter, light bulb and Flickering method to isolate power supply problems thus speeding up the repair process.
- Check/test if the high frequency transformer (power transformer) is good or bad with the use of a special test equipment.
- Find replacement or substitution part number for SMPS components.
- Know Where to Buy Power Supplies Parts Locally and Online.
- How to Modify SMPS that was hit by lightning, parts burnt beyond recognition, missing components and etc (applicable to less than 80 watt power supplies only) and make the power supply to work again.
- Perform critical voltage testing points on power supply with Power On.
- Read Mainboard schematic diagrams
- Understand How Micro Controller Unit (MCU), EEprom IC and Flash Rom IC function.
- Use Smart Tweezers to check faulty SMD components
- Use a 100Mhz Digital/Analog Oscilloscope to perform critical waveform checking on mainboard with power On.
- Use a simple EEprom/Flash Rom Programmer (Copier) to copy EEprom/Flash Rom data for troubleshooting purposes.
- Use a Rework Station to extract and solder SMD/Spider ICs on circuit board
- Assemble and Fix PCB kit board that have SMD components
- To trace shorted component in mainboard with the help of DC Power Supply.
- Locate intermittent problem in mainboard by using hot air and coolant/Freezer
- Locate components that have partial short circuit by using a Thermal Imager.
- Monitor the overall current consumption of a device using a special tester for troubleshooting purpose.
- Using a short circuit tester to prevent newly installed components from blowing up again.
- Use VI Tester/Analog Signature Analysis (ASA) to compare identical circuit boards to locate faulty section or components
- Use the right and special tools to open many different type of device’s casing.
- and many more
- Prepare to undertake the level 3 Higher Advanced Electronics Troubleshooting and Repair Course
