CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
(b) Record
1.
In record status, Q607 turns on and so does Q606.
2. Q605 and Q603 turn on, and Q604 turns off.
3. The center click terminal of the speed control volume (VR601 )
is connected to Q605.
4. Q605 is connected to pin 2 of IC601.
5. The main motor speed remains constant, regardless of the
variable contact position of the speed control volume.

REEL MOTOR CONTROL CIRCUIT
(a) Playback/Record
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Q608 turns on when the unit is in playback or record status.
The output (emitter) voltage of Q609 drops to approximately
3.5
v.
Q61 Oturns on and so does Q611.
A voltage is applied to Q615 via R619, causing it to turn on.
A current from Q611 flows through the reel motor.
The reel motor runs in the playback direction.
At this point, the emitter voltage of Q609 is low, causing
the reel motor to run slowly.
(b) Fast Forward
1. In fast forward status, Q608 is off and Q61 O is on.
2. The reel motor runs in the same direction as during playback
and record status.
3. At this point, the emitter voltage of Q609 becomes
approximately 7.8 V because Q608 is off.
This causes the reel motor to run fast.
4. To stop, Q61 Oand Q616 turn off and Q617 turns on.
5. The startup power generated by the reel motor flows through
D602 and Q617, causing this current to quickly become
smaller.
This stops the reel motor quickly.
(c) Rewind
1.
In rewind status, Q608 is off and Q613, Q612 and Q614 are on.
2. The reel motor runs in the opposite direction as during
playback, record and fast forward status.
3. At this point, the emitter voltage of Q609 becomes
approximately 7.8 V because Q608 is off.
This causes the reel motor to run fast.
4. To stop, Q613 and Q619 turn off and Q618 turns on.
5. The startup power generated by the reel motor flows through
D603 and Q618, causing the reel motor to stop quickly.

h. WARNING BEEP TONES
(a) Tape End
1.

3.
4.
5.
6.
The mechanism’s disc assembly (ref. no. 126) has a
reflecting panel on its base.
This reflecting panel sends a pulse to a photocoupler
(PC901 ) as the disc assembly rotates.
The disc assembly stops when the end of the tape is
reached.
When the disc assembly stops, the fluctuations in the
pulse stop, too.
The pulse is conveyed to pin 16 of IC903 by the reel
motor rotation sensor circuit (PC901, Q909).
If the input signal to pin 16 of IC903 does not fluctuate
for two seconds, a warning beep tone is output and the
mechanism stops.

i. AUDIO SIGNAL PATH
(a) Playback
● If the position is other than record mode:
1. Q916 turns on and so do Q703 and Q704.
2. Q703 and Q704 are transistors for switching between
record and play status.
3. The playback signal output by the R/P head is input to
pin 8 of IC902 from Q706 (C), C709 and R724.
4. The output from pin 9 of IC902 is input to pin 9 of IC901
from R727 and C728.
5. The output from pin 6 of IC902 is input to pin 11 of IC902
from C724, C747 and R755.
6. The output from pin 10 of IC902 is input to pin 4 of IC901
from R750 and VR701.
7. The output from pin 1 of IC901 passes through C740,
d
L703 and the earphone socket (CN902) on its way to the
speaker, which outputs it as the audio signal.
(b) Record
1.
2.
3.
4.
Q703 and Q704 turn off and Q702 turns on.
A record signal is input to pin 3 of IC902 by switching the
TEL REC/HAND MIC switch (S901 ).
The output from pin 4 of IC902 is input to pin 9 of IC901
from R727 and C727.
The output from pin 6 of IC901 passes through C724,
R734, C718 and T901 before being input to the RIP
head to record the signal.
