Dear Friends

I have a broken DENON AF/FM receiver Model DRA325R.
Four power transistors are burnt. The number are A1489 and C3853.

Has any friend give me a replace number that I can find in the USA.

Thanks,
Anucha Ppromwungkwa.

Try putting a 2S in front of the number (2SA1489,2SC3853) offten the 2S
is implied and not on the device.

Goodluck, Bob

Before replacing them, make sure that there are not other
bad parts as well thay may cause your new transistors
to blow up.

Also, putting series resistors in the + and - power
lines for the final output amps (like light bulbs)
would minimize the chance of destroying more components
while debugging.

Both available from MCM Electronics and probably others:

The following are good sources for consumer electronics replacement parts,
especially for VCRs, TVs, and other audio and video equipment:

MCM Electronics (VCR parts, Japanese semiconductors,
1-800-543-4330. tools, test equipment, audio, consumer
electronics including microwave oven parts
and electric range elements, etc.)

Dalbani (Excellent Japanese semiconductor source,
1-800-325-2264. VCR parts, other consumer electronics,)

Premium Parts (Very complete VCR parts, some tools, adapter
1-800-558-9572. cables, other replacement parts.)

Computer Component Source (Mostly computer monitor replacement parts,
1-800-356-1227. also, some electronic components including
semiconductors.)

Those numbers are standard Japanese transistor types 2SA-1489 and
2SC-3853. The '2S' is almost always not shown because it's generic. I
don't unfortunately have access to a substitution guide so I can't look up
any alternatives.

Regards,

Craig.
