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.

The components designated by a symbol ( ! ) in this schematic diagram designates components whose value are of

special significance to product safety. Should any component designated by a symbol need to be replaced, use only the part

designated in the Parts List. Do not deviate from the resistance, wattage, and voltage ratings shown.

following ICs.

IC911 (MT9J003I12STCV)

CMOS imager

CDS, AGC, ADC built-in

H driver, V driver, serial communication circuit built-in

2. IC911 (CMOS)

[Structure]

The electric charges which are generated when each pixel is

optically converted are in turn converted into signal voltages

by the FD amplifier, and they are then transmitted by the built-

in H driver and V driver. The signals are sampled and ampli-

fied by the CDS and PGA circuits at the point they are output,

and then they are AD converted and output. The output uses

the 12 bit LVDS interface.

1-2. CP1 and VF1 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

1. Circuit Description

1-1. Digital clamp

The optical black section extracts averaged values from the

subsequent data to make the black level of the sensor output

data uniform for each line. The optical black section averaged

value for each line is taken as the sum of the value for the

previous line multiplied by the coefficient 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 image sensor 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 64-segment

screen, and the AF carries out computations based on a 6-

segment screen.

1-4. SDRAM controller

This circuit outputs address, RAS, CAS and CLOCK data for

controlling the SDRAM. It also refreshes the SDRAM.

1-5. PIO/PWM/SIO for LCD

It possible to switch between individual input/output and PWM

input/output.

1-6. TG/SG

Timing generated for image sensor control.

1-7. Digital encoder

It generates chroma signal from color difference signal.

2. Outline of Operation

When the shutter opens, the switch signal is input to ASIC and

CPU, and then operation starts. When the TG/SG drives the

image sensor, picture data is converted internally into a small-

amplitude actuating signal, and is then input to ASIC. The

data that is input to the ASIC is input to the SDRAM through

digital clamp.

The AF, AE, AWB, shutter, and AGC value are computed from

this data, and 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 JPEG and is then

written to card memory (SD card).

When played back on the LCD and monitor, data is transferred

from memery to the SDRAM, and the image is then elongated

so that it 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.

5. Video Clip Recording and Playback

5-1. Recording

The signal from the camera block is input to IC101 (ASIC). The

data that is input to the ASIC is input to SDRAM, and converts

this data to encoded MPEG4 data, after which it is written in

sequence onto the SD card as streaming data. At this time,

the audio signals that are input to the built-in microphone are

converted into digital data by the audio CODEC IC of IC181,

and they are then input to ASIC. The audio data is then en-

coded (AAC), and then it is written in sequence onto the SD

card together as streaming data with the image signals de-

scribed above.

5-2. Playback

The data is read from the SD card, and the encoded data is

decoded into image data where it is displayed by the LCD or

on a TV monitor. At the same time, the audio data is also de-

coded, and is input to IC181 as digital data. D/A conversion is

carried out at IC181, and the sound is then output to the speaker

or to the LINE OUT terminal.

6. Audio CODEC Circuit (IC181)

The audio signals from the microphone are converted into 16-

bit digital data. AD conversion is carried out at a maximum

sampling frequency of 48 kHz.

During audio playback, the 16-bit digital data is converted into

analog signals and these are output to the speaker or line out

system. DA conversion is carried out at a maximum sampling

frequency of 48 kHz.

4. Lens drive block

4-1. Focus drive

The serial signals (LENS_SDATA, LENS_SCLK and

LENS_EN) and F_CLK which are output from the ASIC

(IC101) are used to drive (FOCUS_A+, FOCUS_A-,

FOCUS_B+ and FOCUS_B-) by the motor driver IC (IC951),

and then used to microstep-drive the focus stepping motor.

Detection of the standard focusing positions is carried out by

means of the photointerruptor (FOCUS_PI_E) inside the lens

block.

4-2. Zoom drive

The serial signals (LENS_SDATA, LENS_SCLK and

LENS_EN) and Z_CLK which are output from the ASIC

(IC101) are used to drive (ZOOM_A+, ZOOM_A-, ZOOM_B+

and ZOOM_B-) by the motor driver IC (IC951), and then used

to microstep-drive the zoom stepping motor. Detection of the

standard zooming positions is carried out by means of the

photointerruptor (ZOOM_PI_E) inside the lens block.

4-3. Iris drive

The serial signals (LENS_SDATA, LENS_SCLK and

LENS_EN) which are output from the ASIC (IC101) are used

to drive regular current (ND+ and ND-) by the motor driver IC

(IC951), and are then used to microstep-drive iris operation.

4-4. Shutter drive

9. Power Supply Control

When the battery is attached, a AL3.2 V power is normally input to the power sequencer block, so that key scanning is carried out

even when the power switch is turned off, so that the camera can start up request again from user.

If the start up request is occured, the PON signal set to high, and then turns on the DC/DC converter.

In addition, the resetting of the CPU inside the ASIC is canceled. This causes all blocks and memories other than the power

sequencer of the ASIC to start operating.

When the power switch is turned off, the ASIC returns to the reset condition, all DC/DC converters are turned off and the power

supply to the whole system is halted.

1-4. ST1 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.

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

CHGDONE signal is changed to Lo output and a "charging

stopped" signal is sent to the microcomputer.

2. Light Emission Circuit

When FLCTL signal is input from the ASIC, the stroboscope

emits light.

2-1. Emission control circuit

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

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

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

stroboscope stops emitting light.

2-2. Trigger circuit

The Q5402 is turned ON by the FLCTL 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.
