PC source with very high voltages at the THERMALTAKE PUREPOWER output

Good afternoon everyone. I have a problem with a Thermaltake Purepower 430 NP font. All voltages are above acceptable nominal values and tolerances. The volatje that should be 12 volts is at 16.5 volts. The voltage that should be 5 volts is 9 volts. I was visually checking the capacitors on the way out and they look good. What dou you recommend? Where do you recommend me to start checking ?. This source may have damaged a hard drive. It is very unfortunate, being of this brand and also certified. Waiting for your comments.

Good afternoon, start by checking the capacitors, even if they are not sulphated, you may not have the same capacitance.

Dear alecampo ... do you mean the second stage capacitors?

Good evening Alfredo, what Barbesi says is true, I recommend that you locate the CI its code, many sources have two, the CI494 and the comparator LM339, there are others that have only one IC. You have a voltage regulation problem, when this It is presented because the source is ripped, you have to check the IC, and look for the diagram if it is found and see if it has the regulator circuit, many sources that have the Ci494 have a TL431 regulator circuit that monitors the standby source and another TL431 that monitors an output.These are associated with a group of resistors that make up the circuit.

Ok friend thanks for the advice ... I'm going to check and I'll be warning if I find the solution.

Reviewing I found two integrated, comparator 339, pulse width modulator 494, and TL431 (PRECISION REFERENCE). I will take off the TL431 to verify it dear.

Friend I already fixed the problem of the voltages ... it was the 817C model octocoupler, I changed it and the voltages returned to normal.

You should check what type of chip it uses and look for its datasheet to analyze it because it has a voltage regulation problem, usually that is what I do when I don't get the diagram I look for the datasheet of each integrated circuit and I see its application or typical use, That's why I recommend that you analyze them and see which one regulates your source, in most of the PC switched sources the regulation does it through the 5V source, but it would have to be seen if that is your case. Greetings.

I recommend you check the IC, the regulatory circuit with your TL431 if you have them and do not forget the optocoupler, that you succeed.
