WARNING
This product has been manufactured using lead-free solder. Be sure to follow the warning given on page 2 when carrrying 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. Part of IC905 (H Driver) and IC901 (V Driver)
An H driver (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 the generation of horizontal transfer clock and the
function of H driver, and is an inverter IC which drives the
horizontal CCDs (H1 and H2). In addition the XV1-XV6 sig-
nals which are output from IC101 are vertical transfer clocks,
and the XSG signal is superimposed onto XV1, XV3 and XV5
at IC901 in order to generate a ternary 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 IC905 is the reset gate clock.
Fig. 1-4. IC905 Block Diagram
4. IC905 (H Driver, CDS, AGC and A/D converter)
IC905 contains the functions of H driver, CDS, AGC and A/D
converter. As horizontal clock driver for CCD image sensor,
HØ1 (A and B) and HØ2 (A and B) are generated inside, and
output to CCD.
The video signal which is output from the CCD is input to pins
(27) of IC905. There are sampling hold blocks generated from
the SHP and SHD 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 (VGA: Variable Gain Amplifier). It
is A/D converted internally into a 10-bit signal, and is then
input to ASIC (IC101). The gain of the VGA amplifier is con-
trolled by pin (31)-(33) serial signal which is output from ASIC
(IC101).

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 6 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 reset signals and the serial sig-
nals (“take a picture” commands) from the 8-bit microproces-
sor are 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 exposures 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 ei-
ther 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
LCD block is in the CP1 board, and it is constructed by VCOM
generation circuit etc. The video signal from the ASIC are 8-
bit digital signal, and input to LCD directly. It is converted into
RGB signals at driver circuit in the LCD.
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. And also the timing pulse except the
video signal is input to LCD directly from ASIC.
4. Lens drive block
4-1. Shutter drive
The shutter drive signal (SIN1 and SIN2) which is output from
the ASIC is drived the shutter constant level driver (IC951),
and then shutter is opened and closed.

are output from the ASIC (IC101) are used to drive by the
motor driver (IC951).
4-3. Focus drive
The focus stepping motor drive signals (FIN1, FIN2, FIN3 and
FIN4) which are output from the ASIC (IC101) are used to
drive by the motor driver (IC951). Detection of the standard
focusing positions is carried out by means of the
photointerruptor (AFPI) inside the lens block.
4-4. Zoom drive
The zoom DC motor drive signals (ZIN1 and ZIN2) which are
output from the ASIC (IC101) are used to drive by the motor
driver (IC951). Detection of the zoom positions is carried out
by means of photoreflector (ZMPI) inside the lens block.

(CH5), backlight system (CH6) and 5 V system (CH7) 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 (CH6) is provided to the
both ends voltage of registance so that regular current can
be controlled to be current that was setting.

1-4. STA 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. Charging switch
The CHG signal becomes High, Q5406 becomes ON and the
charging circuit starts operating.
1-2. Power supply filter
C5406 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 50-100 kHz. Because self-excited light omis-
sion is used, the oscillation frequency changes according to
the drive conditions.
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. Voltage monitoring circuit
This circuit is used to maintain the voltage accumulated at
C5412 at a constance level.
After the charging voltage is divided and converted to a lower
voltage by R5405 and R5406, it is output as the monitoring
voltage VMONIT. When VMONIT voltage reaches a specified
level, the CHG signal is switched to Low and charging is in-
terrupted.
2. Light Emission Circuit
When FLCLT signals are input from the ASIC expansion port,
the stroboscope emits light.
2-1. Emission control circuit
When the FLCLT signal is input to Hi at the emission control
circuit, Q5409 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 Q5409 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, IC955 is operating and
creating 3.6 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 halts 8 MHz of the main clock, and operates 32.768 kHz of subclock.
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, the 8-bit microprocessor halts 8 MHz of the main clock, and operates
32.768 kHz clock counting by subclock.
Also, the battery for backup is charged 16 hours from it to be attached.
When the power switch is on, the 8-bit microprocessor starts processing. The 8-bit microprocessor first sets both the PON signal
at pin (12) and the PAON signal (ASIC) 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 signal (ASIC) to High and then turn on the CCD. When the through image is
playing, set the PAON signal to Low and then turn off the CCD. When LCD panel turns on, set LCD ON signal at pin (11) and LCD
ON3 signal at pin (10) to High, and then turn on the power. Set BL ON signal at pin (9) to High, and turn on the backlight power.
When the power switch is off, the lens will be stowed, and PON, PAON, LCDON and BLON signals to Low and the power supply
to the whole system is halted. The 8-bit microprocessor halts oscillation of the main clock (8 MHz), and set operation mode of
clock ocillation.
