Need help finding replacement transistors

I have acquired a flat panel monitor with a bad inverter board (powers the back light). It's pretty obvious that the failure is two transistors that shorted and caused a bank of capacitors to pop. A quick search reveals that this is a common problem with this board and replacing the transistors and capacitors should resolve the issue. I have already replaced the caps but due to a lack of knowledge am having problems finding replacement transistors. Here are the spec sheets on what I need to replace.

http://www.cheertech.com.tw/Niko-sem/Data sheet\P2804BDG.pdf
http://www.cheertech.com.tw/Niko-sem/Data sheet\P5504EDG.pdf

Based on the little research I did, the important specs are:
V(BR)DSS >= original
R(DS)ON <= original
ID >= original

Based on that I found quite a few chips that should replace the P2804BDG. But I have found no chips based on that criteria that match the P5504EDG. In fact, I am finding very few MOSFETs with a negative V(BR)DSS and ID. Mouser has only a handfull and Digikey doesn't list any at all. This leads me to believe that I am missing something and just don't know what I should be looking for. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Ok, I'm still researching. Am I correct in saying that all p-channel mosfets are operating in a negative state but it is just up to the manufacturer whether they list it as a negative or not??

If that is correct then I should be able to find a replacement. A quick search found some results, but then I got to looking at the rise and fall times. It looks like most of what I am finding has significantly higher rise and fall times. Is this very important?

Still searching. Seems if I can get a chip with enough current handling and fast enough switching then the resistance on is higher than the original.. How much is too much? Where should I compromise?

P-ch MOSFETs usually have items like Vdss, Id, Vgs and others shown as negative numbers on datasheets.

Yes, rise/fall times are important. The longer the rise/fall times, the more power will be dissipated in the MOSFET itself.

You should compare total gate charges as well; the original has 14nC's. The gate driver was probably optimized for the original MOSFET. If the gate charge goes up considerably, it'll stress your driver - and/or cause the MOSFET to dissipate more power.

Ok, I think I have found what I need.
Would this http://www.aosmd.com/pdfs/datasheet/AOD413.pdf be a viable replacement for this http://www.cheertech.com.tw/Niko-sem/Data%20sheet%5CP5504EDG.pdf ?

And this http://www.fairchildsemi.com/ds/FD/FDD8451.pdf a valid replacment for this http://www.cheertech.com.tw/Niko-sem/Data%20sheet%5CP2804BDG.pdf ?

Hello, I have 2 of these boards for repair... monitor - acer 24''(al2416w), so it will be great if we find solution about the problem instead of buy new inverter boards. I will try to find from where we can buy these parts... Good luck!

those are garden variety mosfets. pretty much any mosfets will do. I would try irf510/9510, or similar devices. they are a dollar a dozen.

Hello , I checked some local stores but I did not find any of these mosfets . Can someone tell me from where can I order substitutes of these P2804BDG and P5504EDG ? I checked IRF510 and IRF9510 as a pair but are they suitable for the inverter board.. (tbd292lf) ? Please help me with this , I have two monitors for repair... it will be pity to throw them away...

Thank you!

Hello guys . I found the mosfet pair FDD8451 and AOD413 - the problem is solved, now I have 2 working monitors .

Thank you all! Good luck!

A couple of questions...

I too have been looking for a replacement for the recently 'deceased' P5504EDG

I understand you have had success in replacing the P5504EDG with an AOD413 transistor

Where can i source a couple of units with reasonable postage charges to the UK?

Any help would be much appreciated

hi. I got the same problem. But the fuse at the power input is also blown (F2 below the blown capacitors). Do anyone know the value of that fuse?

I figured it out. The fuses marked with "K" is 1,5A

ok. for those who can't find the parts described in this thread (as I).

I used replacement transistors named FDD5614P and FDD5612.
I also had to switch the capacitors.
Here I used "RUBYCON - 35ZLH100M6.3X11 - CAPACITOR, 100UF, 35V".

And I used a "FUSE, SMD, 1206, 1.5A". However, this is a fast acting fuse, and I think it should be slow. But it works for now =)
All of these parts can be found at farnell (and is therefore available in Europe).

Good luck!

i have the same problem with my acer, the screen shows the logo for a sec and then shutdown will replacing the transistors fix this issue the power board is fine and all other circuits seem to be ok i know it is the inverter board, this is a known problem with them. any info would be helpful

I suggest that you replace the electrolytic capacitors first.

Bad MOSFETs won't damage the caps, but bad caps will likely damage the MOSFETs.

all caps seem fine when i turn on the monitor it stays on for a second then the inverter cuts out. Seems to be the same problem as been described here.But one thing my caps were not effected just the inverter.

Start a new thread.

Post a schematic.

Then we can have something to work with.

Otherwise, this thread is dead.

I don't know if you are still in need of this info but it will help anyone else looking in the UK.

I found the following links for the original transistors and capacitors needed for the inverter.

http://www.chsinteractive.co.uk/ele...-mod-p5504edg-general-transistor-ass-make.htm

http://www.chsinteractive.co.uk/ele...-mod-p2804bdg-general-transistor-ass-make.htm

Hope this is of help to someone.

Ok Guys,

Just recently got into fixing monitors.

Have just got hold of a monitor with this fault as for the mosfets ppl are going on about on this site you can use a FDD6690 and FDD6685 both available from farnell at under £1 each.

I stumbled across this post /forum whilst googling to try and find an equivalent for the bad naughty mosfets in my 2416. I like what I read on this here forum so I signed up, especially to say a big thanks to the poster Dead_On_arrival those links are still good and I've got my spare parts on there way. Thanks to all..
