Recently the picture became a 3D on mitsubishi ws55511 ,i was told to replace the convergence ic STK392-110 to a higher power ic STK392-150 or STK392-180 ,should i switch to a higher pwr ic ? or stick to OEM
Hi bluemags,
It is true that you should use a higher power I.C., I do that all the
time. However, the one to use is the STK392-120. This one is rated at 5
Amps unlike the STK392-110, 150, which are both rated at 3 Amps. I have
not checked the data sheet on the 180. They are all OEM, since Sanyo
designed them all. Beware of generic knockoffs not made by Sanyo. The
generic I.C.s do not have the quality as the Sanyo originals.
Best Regards,

I would suggest to use the same because the original design works well with STK392-110, if you change them to use the one with higher power you will be forcing other components there to work a bit harder.
Try attaching a small 12 volts DC fan near or on the heatsink where the ICs are mounted.
Good Luck.
The switch is definately the way to go. I use the the 150 exclusively. Make sure you replace both IC's and for burned resistors around the IC's. Also look around the ic's to make sure all solder connections are good.

Mine is doing the same thing (3D)
today my ws-55511 began displaying in the top portion of the tv in double vision with a bright blue and yellow reflecting. how do i fix this myself? is there a way to?
Mine all of the sudden went 3-D. Anyone know if there is any way to fit it yourself? Or how much it would cost to have someone fix it? Thanks
