ASSEMBLY AND DISMANTLE OF LED TV.

AIM:
To assemble and dismantle the LED TV.

REQUIREMENTS:
1. LED TV
2. Screwdriver Tool Kit
Warning: This monitor contains electrostatically sensitive devices. Use caution
when handling these components.

CAUTIONS:
1. Disconnect the monitor from the power source before disassembly.
2. Follow these directions carefully; never use metal instruments to pry apart the
cabinet.

PROCEDURE:
Step 1: Inside the TV - Back View
 Removing some screws (Phillips) off the back panel allows it to be removed.

Step 2: Inside Board 1


 This is the power supply. The output voltages include 24V
(Backlight), 12V (Control + Panel).
Step 3: Inside Board 2

 This is the main digital board of the TV. It controls all of the TV's functions.
 An interesting note: The service menu (Press Input then 3138 on the
remote) has a factory reset option inside it, DO NOT ever use that. It will
cause the display to malfunction, and you will have to trigger it again
blindly to restore video output.
 The main IC is a MStar chip. The heatsink is poorly adhered to the IC
with double sided thermal tape, which may lead to early thermal failure of
the IC (seems to be common issue on Newegg forums, digital board
failed).
 I glued the heatsink using some thermal RTV adhesive I got from eBay.
 The board has some I2C or Serial UART port on it, maybe it can be
used? The USB can supply 5V.
 One cable supplies display data to the panel.
Step 4: Internal Board 3
 This is the display TCON (Timing Controller) board. It is considered to
be part of the Innolux panel.
 This IC becomes very, very hot during operation and the provided cooling
seems to be insuffificent. In order to make it possibly last longer, added
some fans to this area and powered them off of the 12V from the
mainboard.
Step 5: Internal Board 4

 This is the LED backlight's controller. The backlight seems to run on


a fairly high voltage and the backlight cable is thus quite thin (right
angle cable in the first image.) It is covered by plastic cover.
 The controller appears to be built using a bunch of MOSFETs and
inductors as a boost/buck/current limiting DC-DC converter. The
board is well-cooled with a lot of heavy copper fill areas, in my
experience it does not need extra cooling to be okay
 Straight ribbon cable goes to TCON to allow backlight contrast
dynamic dimming and control on/off/brightness.
Step 6: LCD Panel

 Model number of Innolux 3840*2160 panel. It can support 60p/60Hz


if you replace the driver board with one from Alibaba I think,
according to its datasheet.
Step 7: Speakers and Audio

 The speakers in the TV aren't really good so I won't elaborate too much.
I have a calibrated EQ profile for them but I lost it, maybe will make
another if there is demand.
 Port is tuned for ~300Hz
 PEQ (Parametric EQ) is built into the Service Menu of firmware.
Step 8: Debezeling modification

 The display can be debezeled by removing all screws from back, and then
sliding the brackets to the side gently to release. Top side needs some
prying to release. Border is 9mm after mod.
Step 9: Cooling fan and LED mods 1
 Added two 120mm computer fans and some LEDs to the back of the display
 Fans held by 3d printed brackets.
 Fans powered by unpopulated 'Panel VCC' pins on mainboard so they
come on when TV is on. LM2596 buck converter used to reduce voltage
for silent operation.

 LEDs powered similarly.


 If the board GND hard to solder to, you can just use extra screw to
mount that wire to Chassis GND.
Step 10: LED mods 2

 12Vcc and soldering the controller


 The controller IR remote and TV remote interfere with each other.
Step 11: Final Result

RESULT:
Thus the assembly and dismantle of LED TV has been done.
