Laser Diode Successor of SLD-104U for SONY ESPRIT KSS Series

Hi guys,

I have got an original sealed package of 50 SONY SLD104AU diodes here!
Anyone interrested?

I can ship all 50 of them at once or ship them one by one from Holland.
Price of 1 piece: EU 2.00 plus shipping, price for all 50 pieces in original seal together: EU 75.-- plus shipping.

Who's first?

Regards,
Hi, if laser diodes are still available, i would like to buy one or two.

regards,
Co
 
laser diode in KSS190a

I have a Sony CDP 337 ESD and need information about the KSS190a l aser-pickup.
What laser diode has the KSS190a? (see attachment KSS190 schematic)
It is the same diode like the KSS151 of the Sony CDP508?
Have anybody a schematic of the CDP 508 so I can compare the pickup schematic.
Please send the schematic to
Thanks a lot

Stephan

have anybody a schematic of the KSS150A and or KSS210A and or KSS213C
Thanks

The Schematic of the diode from KSS150A is according the datasheet from first link by post #1. This means, this diode isn't suited for the KSS-190A.


The exchange of laser diodes I do not longer perform after too many failed attempts (reason: KSS-bodies of newer devices are without forced centering for the outline of the diode).
But in the meantime there are several offers about diodes at ebay (search for KSS-151A).
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=kss151a&_sacat=0
This means, there must be companies, that carried out the exchange include all adjustments.
Who knows such companies?

I am still looking to a conpany, which is able to replace the laser diode used in the optical pick up from SONY KSS-series - e. g. KSS-151A and KSS-272A.

Google provides still some suppliers of the diodes itself, if you use the key words "KSS-151A" and "ebay". The showed diodes are also suitable for the most other optical pick up devices from SONY (like KSS152, KSS271, KSS150), as mentioned in the previous posting, and this diodes are successors for the used diodes at those days, the SLD-104U.
Here an example found by Google in Germany:
5 piece Sony KSS-151A Laser Lens LD Laser Diode 780nm 3-5mw 5.6mm | eBay
Unfortunately I am still not able to find those company, which are able to remove the old diode replace the new diode include all necessary mechanical adjustments.
Who can help to find such companies or guys?

any news?
the associated laser diode (successor model of SLD-104) is still available from a lot of suppliers (but where are the guys for replace them ?):

激光头维修注意事项

1 CD机是非常精密的仪器,激光头安装需要重新调整聚焦和遁迹,没有动手拆机维修调整能力的朋友必须找当地有经验电子维修员拆卸安装激光头(有不少弄断排线造成激光头报废的案例),或整机发过来维修。

2 有很多发烧友会问到更换激光管会不会影响音质的问题.这个大可以放心换新激光管读碟RF信号(示波器可以测量而且跟全新一样)更强更全面,音质只会更好,喜欢听什么秒杀 不死头之类的朋友勿拍,本人只会一分证据一分话不会忽悠。

3 没有激光头维修仪器的朋友尽量不要自己更换激光管.这样的成功率比中彩票更难而且一不小心会造成激光头报废.得不偿失。

4 维修激光头不是简单的把激光管对好光靶一放就可以的事,改变了发光源里面的凸/凹透镜的位置也要相应的改变,这一切都要在放大镜的情况下小心翼翼的工作,所以本产品不接受议价,多多包涵。

5 单发激光头过来的朋友最好注明您的机器故障现象,没有100%就是激光头问题,或者一机多病,如果检测后不是激光头问题我们这里会收检测费50元/个,敬请原谅,师傅对各种CD相当熟悉,可技术指导。

敬请留意;各地邮费不一样.有的单发激光头有的发整机过来,邮费统一由买家包邮,发整机过来的要注意包装安全,收到货后听听看看有没有异响才通电,有点动手能力最好啦....附近的朋友欢迎来店。

光头修好本店提供三个月保修。给大家一个信心保证(保证日本SONY原厂激光管,正常寿命1万小时左右)。

地址广东省佛山市禅城区丝织路旧货市场A14号永立音响, 0757-82240468

维修师傅LD时代至今20多年激光头维修经验,其他的CD .LD激光头也可以维修,技术问题欢迎至电徐师傅.13929942998.

Google Translate gives you at least an idea what could be meant and yes, "consult before shooting" is always advisable:

Customized service, consult before shooting

Laser head maintenance precautions

1 CD player is a very precise instrument. The laser head installation needs to re-focus and track. The friend who has no hands-on disassembly maintenance adjustment ability must find a local experienced electronic maintenance technician to disassemble and install the laser head. The case of head scrapping), or the whole machine sent over to repair.

2 There are a lot of enthusiasts who will ask if changing the laser tube will not affect the sound quality. This can be replaced with a new laser tube reading RF signal (the oscilloscope can measure and be the same as the new one). It is stronger and more comprehensive, and the sound quality will only be better. I like to listen to friends who don’t want to kill, and I don’t want to shoot. I will only be a bit of evidence and I won’t be fooled.

3 Friends who do not have a laser head to repair the instrument try not to replace the laser tube by themselves. This success rate is more difficult than the lottery ticket and accidentally causes the laser head to be scrapped. It is not worth the candle.

4 Repairing the laser head is not a simple matter of putting the laser tube on the light target. The position of the convex/concave lens inside the light source is changed accordingly. All this must be done carefully in the case of a magnifying glass. Therefore, this product does not accept bargaining, and it bears a lot.

5 A friend who has a single-shot laser head should indicate your machine failure phenomenon. No 100% is a laser head problem, or a machine is sick. If it is not a laser head problem after inspection, we will charge a detection fee of 50 yuan/piece. Please forgive me, the master is quite familiar with all kinds of CDs, and can be technically guided.

Please pay attention; the postage is not the same everywhere. Some single-shot laser heads have a whole machine coming over, the postage is unified by the buyer, and the whole machine should pay attention to the packaging safety. After receiving the goods, listen to see if there is any The abnormal sound is only energized, and the ability to do it is the best....The friends nearby are welcome to come to the store.

The bald head is repaired and the store offers a three-month warranty. Give everyone a confidence guarantee (guaranteed the Japanese SONY original laser tube, the normal life of 10,000 hours or so).

Address: Yongdi Audio, No. A14, No.1 Market, Silk Road, Chancheng District, Foshan City, Guangdong Province, 0757-82240468

Maintenance master LD era has more than 20 years of laser head maintenance experience, other CD.LD laser head can also be repaired, technical issues are welcome to the electric master Xu.

But I wonder where he gets the diodes. All diodes I got in the last 5 years were crap, maybe 5 out of 40 working
With working I mean that the optical laser power of the new diode was at least on par with the original diode.

But until now I was only buying the LT022MC from Sharp. This diode can be found in almost any 1rst to 4rth generation player
as Sharp was the only manufacturer of solid state diodes in the beginning .
So maybe for later laser drives there are still (Sony)-diodes available that are in better shape.

But the repairer shows the same photograph of an eyepattern for his KSS-272-repairs as well as for a BU-1 he is selling.

No "before" and "after". But maybe someone who knows more will chime in...
