1) panel: T370HW02/37L6AF1C
Most important LVDS connector pins (12V panel power, etc.) are in the same places for both versions (B550 panel:
T370HW02 VC, B650 panel:
T370HW02 VE).
But there are some notable differences as well. I think it rather shouldn't explode or something
, but is there a chance it will work properly?
Curiously, I found 50Hz panel string "37L6AF1C" in B650 firmware (v2005.0 non-CIP+, in Factory.dat and exeDSP binary), so perhaps there is a chance it might actually work with the right settings. Obviously, B650 firmware will be unable to detect FRC hardware on 50Hz panel T-con board. I have no idea how it will behave in such circumstances.
2) BN44-00262A
In my LE37B650T2W, power/inverter board is "BN44-00262B". According to many (but who knows how trustworthy ?) internet sources, BN44-00262A/B boards are interchangeable.
Yet, I noticed that BN44-00262A is also used in some LE37B530 models; in LExxB530 service manual, power connector pinout is an
exact reverse of the B650 pinout.
Beware of the Samsung service manual inconsistencies
. Maybe it's just different numbering scheme (???). I guess you need to ensure that before connecting any cables; 30-pin power cable (mainboard side) should follow B650 service manual pinout exactly. With power board connected to mains, and 30-pin power cable not connected to the mainboard, there should be 5V on pin 27 ("A5V"). Do you have a multimeter? If measurement on pin 27 is 5V, I think you are on the reasonably safe side
.
wasn't totally sure as to which one the 'IR & function' connector was but I think its 12 and I took a picture of the one I looked at
It's 12pin all right, but I'm not sure those connectors are fully compatible on hardware level in B550 / B650 models
. On my B650 mainboard, it is a little bit different [picture attached].
AFAIRC, B550 have traditional panel keys, while B650 have "touch sensitive" keys (?). According to service manual, B650 IR & function pinout is:
Code: Select all
1 IR
2 GND
3 A3.3V
4 LED_STB
5 BUZZER
6 KEY_INPUT1
7 KEY_INPUT2
8 MSDA_5V
9 A5V
10 MSCL_5V
11 LED_CNTR
12 A5V
