RoHS

•This product does not contain any hazardous substances prohibited by the RoHS Directive.

WARNING

•You are requested to use RoHS compliant parts for maintenance or repair.

•You are requested to use lead-free solder.

(This product has been manufactured using lead-free solder. Be sure to follow the warning given on page 2 when

carrying out repair work.)

WARNING

Do not use solder containing lead.

This product has been manufactured using lead-free solder in

order to help preserve the environment.

Because of this, be sure to use lead-free solder when carrying

out repair work, and never use solder containing lead.

Lead-free solder has a melting point that is 30 - 40°C (86 -

104°F) higher than solder containing lead, and moreover it does

not contain lead which attaches easily to other metals. As a

result, it does not melt as easily as solder containing lead, and

soldering will be more difficult even if the temperature of the

soldering iron is increased.

The extra difficulty in soldering means that soldering time will

increase and damage to the components or the circuit board

may easily occur.

Because of this, you should use a soldering iron and solder

that satisfy the following conditions when carrying out repair

work.

Soldering iron

Use a soldering iron which is 70 W or equivalent, and which

lets you adjust the tip temperature up to 450°C (842°F). It

should also have as good temperature recovery characteris-

tics as possible.

Set the temperature to 350°C (662°F) or less for chip compo-

nents, to 380°C (716°F) for lead wires and similar, and to 420°C

(788°F) when installing and removing shield plates.

The tip of the soldering iron should have a C-cut shape or a

driver shape so that it can contact the circuit board as flat or in

a line as much as possible.

Solder

Use solder with the metal content and composition ratio by

weight given in the table below. Do not use solders which do

not meet these conditions.

Lead-free solder is available for purchase as a service tool.

Use the following part number when ordering:

Part name: Lead-free solder with resin (0.5 mm dia., 500 g)

Part number: VJ8-0270

Metal content

Tin (Sn) Silver (Ag)

Copper (Cu)

Composition

ratio by weight

96.5 %

3.0 %

0.5 %

Note:

If replacing existing solder containing lead with lead-free sol-

der in the soldered parts of products that have been manufac-

tured up until now, remove all of the existing solder at those

parts before applying the lead-free solder.

Fig. 1-3. IC901 Block Diagram

3. IC905 (H Driver) and IC901 (V Driver)

An H driver (a part of IC905) and V driver (IC901) are neces-

sary in order to generate the clocks (vertical transfer clock,

horizontal transfer clock and electronic shutter clock) which

driver the CCD.

IC905 has clock generating which drives horizontal CCD and

its drives function. These clocks are output from pin (14), (15),

(18) and (19) of IC905. In addition the XV1-XV10 signals which

are output from IC101 are the vertical transfer clocks, and the

XSG1A, XSG1B, XSG2A, XSG2B, XSG2C, XSG3A and

XSG3B signals which are output is superimposed onto XV1,

XV3, XV5, XV7 and XV9 at IC901 in order to generate a ter-

nary pulse. In addition, the XSUB signal which is output from

IC101 is used as the sweep pulse for the electronic shutter,

and the RG signal which is output from pin (21) of IC905 is

the reset gate clock.

4. IC905 (CDS, AGC Circuit and A/D Converter)

The video signal which is output from the CCD is input to

pins (27) of IC905. There are S/H blocks inside IC905 gener-

ated from the XSHP and XSHD pulses, and it is here that

CDS (correlated double sampling) is carried out.

After passing through the CDS circuit, the signal passes

through the AGC amplifier. It is A/C converted internally into

a 12-bit signal, and is then input to IC101 of the CP1 circuit

board. The gain of the AGC amplifier is controlled by pin (31)-

(33) serial signal which is output from IC101 of the CP1 board.

1-2. CP1 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

1. Circuit Description

1-1. Digital clamp

The optical black section of the CCD extracts averaged val-

ues from the subsequent data to make the black level of the

CCD output data uniform for each line. The optical black sec-

tion of the CCD averaged value for each line is taken as the

sum of the value for the previous line multiplied by the coeffi-

cient k and the value for the current line multiplied by the

coefficient (k-1).

1-2. Signal processor

1. γ correction circuit

This circuit performs (gamma) correction in order to maintain

a linear relationship between the light input to the camera

and the light output from the picture screen.

2. Color generation circuit

This circuit converts the CCD data into RGB signals.

3. Matrix circuit

This circuit generates the Y signals, R-Y signals and B-Y sig-

nals from the RGB signals.

4. Horizontal and vertical aperture circuit

This circuit is used gemerate the aperture signal.

1-3. AE/AWB and AF computing circuit

The AE/AWB carries out computation based on a 256-seg-

ment screen, and the AF carries out computations based on

a 11-segment screen.

1-4. SDRAM controller

This circuit outputs address, RAS, CAS and AS data for con-

trolling the SDRAM. It also refreshes the SDRAM.

1-5. Communication control

1. SIO

This is the interface for the 8-bit microprocessor.

2. PIO/PWM/SIO for LCD

8-bit parallel input and output makes it possible to switch be-

tween individual input/output and PWM input/output. It is pre-

pared for 16-bit parallel output.

1-6. TG/SG

Timing generated for 7 million pixel CCD control.

1-7. Digital encorder

It generates chroma signal from color difference signal.

1-8. JPEG encorder and decorder

It is compressed and elongated the data by JPEG system.

2. Outline of Operation

When the shutter opens, the serial signals (“take a picture”

commands) from the 8-bit microprocessor is input to ASIC

(IC101) and operation starts. When the TG/SG drives the CCD,

picture data passes through the A/D and CDS, and is then

input to the ASIC as 12-bit data. The AF, AE, AWB, shutter,

and AGC value are computed from this data, and three expo-

sures are made to obtain the optimum picture. The data which

has already been stored in the SDRAM is read by the CPU

and color generation is carried out. Each pixel is interpolated

from the surrounding data as being either R, G and B primary

color data to produce R, G and B data. At this time, correction

of the lens distortion which is a characteristic of wide-angle

lenses is carried out. After AWB and γ processing are carried

out, a matrix is generated and aperture correction is carried

out for the Y signal, and the data is then compressed by the

JPEG method by (JPEG) and is then written to card memory

(SD card).

When the data is to be output to an external device, it is taken

data from the memory and output via the USB. When played

back on the LCD and monitor, data is transferred from memery

to the SDRAM, and the data elongated by JPEG decorder is

displayed over the SDRAM display area.

3. LCD Block

The LCD display circuit is located on the CP1 board, and

consists of components such as a power circuit.

The signals from the ASIC are 8-bit digital signals, that is

input to the LCD directly. The 8-bit digital signals are con-

verted to RGB signals inside the LCD driver circuit . This LCD

has a 3-wire serial, and functions such as the brightness and

image quality are controlled.

Because the LCD closes more as the difference in potential

between the VCOM (common polar voltage: AC) and the R,

G and B signals becomes greater, the display becomes darker;

if the difference in potential is smaller, the element opens and

the LCD become brighter.

In addition, the timing pulses for signals other than the video

signals are also input from the ASIC directory to the LCD.

The shutter drive signals (SIN1 and SIN2) which is output from

the ASIC (IC101) is used to drive the shutter constant (Shut-

ter_3 and Shutter_4) by the motor driver (IC951), and then

mecha shutter is opened and closed by moving magnet motor.

4-2. Iris drive

The iris drive signals (IIN1 and IIN2) which are output from the

ASIC (IC101) are used to drive the shutter constant (Aper-

ture_1 and Aperture_2) by the motor driver (IC951), and are

then used to drive the iris steps by meter-motor.

4-3. Focus drive

The serial data signals (L_ST, L_DATA, L_SCLK, L_STB and

FCLK) which are output from the ASIC (IC101) are used to

drive (LD_Motor_A (+), LD_Motor_ A (–), LD_Motor_B (+) and

LD_Motor_B (–)) by the motor driver (IC951), and are then

used to drive the stepping motor for focusing operation. Detec-

tion of the standard focusing positions is carried out by means

of signal (FPIOUT) from the photointerruptor (LD_PI) by ASIC

is detecting inside the lens block.

4-4. Zoom drive

The serial data signals (L_ST, L_DATA, L_SCLK, L_STB and

ZPWM) which are output from ASIC (IC101) are used to drive

(Zoom_Motor + and Zoom_Motor –) by the motor driver

(IC951), and are then used to drive the zoom DC motor.

Detection of the standard zooming positions is carried out by

means of signal (ZPROUT) from the photoreflector

1-3. PWA POWER CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

1. Outline

This is the main power circuit, and is comprised of the follow-

ing blocks.

Switching power control IC (IC501)

Analog 13 V (A) output system (L5003, Q5001)

Analog -7.5 V (A) output system (L5005, Q5005, IC502)

Analog 3.5 V (A) output system (IC503)

Digital 3.25 V (D) output system (L5001)

Digital 1.20 V (D) output system (L5002)

Backlight output system (L5006, Q5007)

Boost power (L5301)

2. Switching Power Controller (IC501)

This is the basic circuit which is necessary for controlling the

power supply for a PWM-type switching regulator, and is pro-

vided with eight built-in channels.

PWM/PFM switching step-up circuit …… 1 (ch_1)

PWM drive step-up/step-down circuit …… 1 (ch_2)

PWM drive step-up and step-down circuit …… total 4 (ch_3

and ch_5~ch_7)

PWM drive inverter circuit …… 1 (ch_4)

Variable regulator …… 1 (ch_8)

Only ch_1 (starting IC, lens drive, 8-bit microprocessor and

ch_3 source), ch_2 (digital 3.25 V), ch_3 (digital 1.20 V), ch_4

(analog -7.5 V), ch_5 (analog 13 V), ch_6 (not used), ch_7

(backlight) and ch_8 (not used) are used. Feedback from 3.8

V (ch_1), 3.25 V (ch_2), 1.20 V (ch_3), -7.5 V (ch_4) and 13.0

V (ch_5) power supply outputs are received, and the PWM

duty is varied so that each one is maintained at the correct

voltage setting level.

Feedback for the backlight power (ch_7) is provided so that

regular current can be controlled to be current (approximately

20 mA) that was setting.

PWM/PFM switching can be carried out for ch_1, so that PFM

operation is enabled when the DSC is stopped (when the

power is off) which provides greater efficiency at times of low

loads (only the 8-bit microprocessor is driven).

2-1. Damage Prevention Circuit

When a short-circuit is generated for a constant period of time,

the capacitor that is connected to pin (1) of IC501 turns all

output off. It is also equipped with an overheating protection

circuit, so that when the element temperature becomes higher

than a certain temperature, all output is turned off in the same

way as for a short-circuit. To reset output, remove the cause

of the problem and then resend a control signal.

3. ch_1 Output System

3.6 V is output. Feedback for the 3.8 V output is provided to

the switching controller (Pin (36) of IC501) so that PWM con-

trol can be carried out. Also, it is the source for 3.5 V (A).

While DSC is stopped, control switches to PFM control.

4. ch_2 Output System

3.25 V (D) is output. Feedback for the 3.25 V (D) output is

provided to the switching controller (Pin (45) of IC501) so that

PWM control can be carried out.

5. ch_3 Output System

1.20 V (D) is output. Feedback for the 1.20 V (D) output is

provided to the swiching controller (Pin (44) of IC501) so that

PWM control can be carried out.

6. ch_4 Output System

-7.5 V is output. Feedback for the inverter circuit output is

provided to the switching power controller (Pin (38) of IC501)

so that PWM control can be carried out. This output is high

precision by IC503, and get to -7.5 V.

7. ch_5 Output System

13.0 V (A) is output. Feedback for the 13.0 V (A) is provided

to the switching power controller (Pin (39) of IC501) so that

PWM control can be carried out.

8. ch_7 Output System

Regular current is being transmitted to LED for backlight. Step-

down in the voltage from the LED are feedback to the switch-

ing power controller (Pin (42) of IC501) so that PWM control

can be carried out.

The control signal (LCD PWM) from the 8-bit system can be

used to adjust the backlight illumination.

1-4. CP1 STROBE CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

1. Charging Circuit

When UNREG power is supplied to the charge circuit and the

CHG signal from microprocessor becomes High (3.3 V), the

charging circuit starts operating and the main electorolytic

capacitor is charged with high-voltage direct current.

However, when the CHG signal is Low (0 V), the charging

circuit does not operate.

1-1. Charge switch

When the CHG signal switches to Hi, IC541 starts charging

operation.

1-2. Power supply filter

C5401 constitutes the power supply filter. They smooth out

ripples in the current which accompany the switching of the

oscillation transformer.

1-3. Oscillation circuit

This circuit generates an AC voltage (pulse) in order to in-

crease the UNREG power supply voltage when drops in cur-

rent occur. This circuit generates a drive pulse with a frequency

of approximately 200-300 kHz, and drive the oscillation trans-

former. When the SW 3.2 V signal is input, the peak current

during oscillation changes.

1-4. Oscillation transformer

The low-voltage alternating current which is generated by the

oscillation control circuit is converted to a high-voltage alter-

nating current by the oscillation transformer.

1-5. Rectifier circuit

The high-voltage alternating current which is generated at

the secondary side of T5401 is rectified to produce a high-

voltage direct current and is accumulated at electrolytic ca-

pacitor C5412.

1-6. Charge monitoring circuit

The functions programmed in the IC541 monitor oscillations

and estimate the charging voltage. If the voltage exceeds the

rated value, charging automatically stops. Then, the

ZCHG_DONE signal is changed to Lo output and a "charging

stopped" signal is sent to the microcomputer.

2. Light Emission Circuit

When FLCLT signal is input from the ASIC, the stroboscope

emits light.

2-1. Emission control circuit

When the FLCLT signal is input to the emission control cir-

cuit, Q5402 switches on and preparation is made to the light

emitting. Moreover, when a FLCLT signal becomes Lo, the

stroboscope stops emitting light.

2-2. Trigger circuit

The Q5402 is turned ON by the FLCLT signal and light emis-

sion preparation is preformed. Simultaneously, high voltage

pulses of several kV are emitted from the trigger coil and ap-

plied to the light emitter.

2-3. Light emitting element

When the high-voltage pulse form the trigger circuit is ap-

plied to the light emitting part, currnet flows to the light emit-

ting element and light is emitted.

Beware of electric shocks.

4. Power Supply Control

The 8-bit microprocessor controls the power supply for the overall system.

The following is a description of how the power supply is turned on and off. When the battery is attached, IC501 is operating and

creating 3.8 V, a regulated 3.2 V voltage is normally input to the 8-bit microprocessor (IC301) by IC302, clock counting and key

scanning is carried out even when the power switch is turned off, so that the camera can start up again.

When the power switch is off, the 8-bit microprocessor operates 32.768 kHz of clock.

When the battery is removed, the 8-bit microprocessor power switches the lithum secondary battery for memory backup by

IC302, and operates at low consumption. At this condition, operates 32.768 kHz clock counting by clock.

Also, the battery for backup is charged 10 hours from it to be attached.

When the power switch is on, the 8-bit microprocessor starts processing. The 8-bit microprocessor first sets the PON signal at

pin (30) to High, and then turn on the power circuit. After PON signal is to High, sets external port of ASIC after approximately

100 ms. According to setting of this external port, carry out setting of the operating frequency and oscillation control in the ASIC.

Also, it starts communication with ASIC, and confirms the system is operative.

When the through image is operating, set the PAON-PAON4 signals (ASIC) to High and then turn on the CCD. When the through

image is playing, set the PAON-PAON4 signals to Low and then turn off the CCD. When LCD panel turns on, set BL ON signal at

pin (41) to High, and turn on the backlight power.

When the power switch is off, the lens will be stowed, and PON, PAON-PAON4 and BLON signals to Low and the power supply

to the whole system is halted. The 8-bit microprocessor set operation mode of clock ocillation (32.768 kHz).

5. Backlight Energy Saving Control

This model is equipped with a control function for switching the appearance of the LCD in accordance with the intensity of

external light in order to save power. The luminance sensor Q1905 detects the intensity of external light, and the results are A/D

converted and compared with the threshold value inside the microprocessor (pin (50) of IC301) in order to switch the lightness or

darkness of the backlight.

Brighter external light -> Brighter backlight (estimated normal outdoor level)

Darker external light -> Darker backlight (estimated normal indoor level)

Furthermore, there are two threshold values for light -> dark and dark -> light, and stable switching is maintained because of the

hysteresis between the two.

Switching of the backlight luminance is carried out by changing the PWM duty from the microprocessor (pin (40) of IC301) so that

the backlight LED current detection signal is added together with the feedback signal from the backlight illumination circuit (pin

(42) of IC501) to vary the current value for the LED.
