The "L03" chassis is a global TV chassis for the model year 2003 and is used for TV sets with a screen sized between 14” and 21”, with Super Flat, Real Flat. compared to the predecessor (L01) the chassis is more simplified and contains savings in power supply, video processing (microprocessor) and audio processing.
The default architecture consists of a Main panel (called mono panel), a kinescope panel, a side I/O panel, and a Top Control panel.
The Main panel consists primarily of conventional components with few SMD components in the audio and video processing parts.
The functions for video processing, microprocessor (P) and teletext/CC decoder (TXT) are combined into one IC (TDA937x), the so-called Definitive One Chip (UOC). This chip is mounted on the component side of the Main panel.
L03 is divided into 2 basic systems, eg. mono and stereo sound.
While audio processing for mono is done on the block audio from the UOC, an external audio processor IC is used for stereo devices.
The tuning system has 181 channels available with display on the screen. The main tuning system uses a tuner, a microcomputer, and a panel-mounted memory IC main.
The microcomputer communicates with the memory IC, with the keyboard, remote receiver, tuner, signal processor IC and the audio output via the I2C bus. The memory IC retains the settings for favorite channels, customer preferred values, and service / factory data.
OSD graphics and Closed Caption decoding are made inside the microprocessor, and then are sent to the signal processor IC to be added to the main signal.
The chassis uses a switched power supply (SMPS) as the power supply.
main voltage. The chassis has a 'hot' ground reference on the primary side and a cold ground reference on the secondary side from the power supply and to the rest of the chassis.
Signal Source Selection
Font selection is mainly divided into two types, Font Selection.
Mono Source Selection and Stereo Source Selection.
• Mono source selection for both audio and video is done entirely by the UOC and is capable of selecting only one external audio signal source.
• For Stereo source selection, the Panasonic IC, which also does BTSC decoding has 2 audio inputs used for font selection, while the UOC takes care of font selection.
Video.
Switching Function for Stereo I/O Video Source Selection
Video Source Selection is done by the UOC. The configuration of video for LATAM/NAFTA is straightforward: the so-called ‘“WYSIWYG” (the what you see on the screen is what you will get in the video output).
Audio Source Selection
The CI AN5829 (BTSC decoder) makes the selection of the audio source external stereo. A maximum of three inputs for audio sources external can be selected. AV1 or FRONT is selected by a mechanical key on the connector. The external audio signal source is then fed to the input
AUX1 (pins 2 and 3) of the AN5829. The AV2 input is fed directly to the AUX2 input (pins 23 and 24) of the AN5829. Then via I2C a source selection on CI AN5829 can be done.
Audio
This chassis is aimed at the LATAM market with a Mono, Stereo, or SAP sound.
For “basic” Mono and Stereo sets, the processing of audio includes Volume and AVL control.
For stereo devices, the CI AN5829S is the audio decoder BTSC and the AN5891K is the audio processing IC.
Processing
This chassis uses the intercarrier demodulation concept (one SAW filter for both audio and video). The baseband (width bandwidth) of the BTSC audio signal from the UOC is fed to pin14 of the stereo decoder. the registrars of Pilot and SAP detection indicate the type of audio signal broadcast as Mono, Stereo, and/or SAP. Based on this indication, the software controls will help to get the signal audio input on pins 21 and 22. Controls are made by the I2C bus connected to pins 18 and 19.
Internal or external audio (pins 2, 3, 23, e24) can also be be selected by the font selection register. to the source of selected audio the AGC function can be applied. The output is from fixed type. The volume control function is available via of the power amplifier (AN7522/23).
The selected audio output from the CI7841 (AN5829) is fed to pins 3 and 2 of the CI7821 (AN5891) for the functions audio processing such as Treble, Bass, Volume, Balance, and surround sound functions. L_out and R_out are then available on pins 12 and 15.
The CI7821 is also controlled by I2C (pins 13 and 14). One AVL function is also available on this IC and can be activated by the device. In this case the AVL function of the AN5829 is disabled.
Subwoofer output (optional) is available on pin 20.
Amplifier
The output is fed to the audio amplifier (CI7901 for stereo devices or CI7902 for mono). This is an amplifier BTL (Bridge Tied Load), which is actually a class amp AB with four transistors per channel. The advantage of BTL over the Class AB standard is that it needs a smaller power supply.
The volume level is controlled on this IC (pin 9) by a line of microprocessor ‘Volume’ control.
The audio signal from the CI 7902 is then sent to the speaker/connector headset.
AVL (Automatic Volume Limiter)
The “Mono AVL” function operates through the UOC. during the change channel and source selection, the AVL bit is toggled “off” and then it can go back to the previous state (“on/off”) as shown in the time diagram.
The “Stereo AVL” function operates through the AGB control of the IC AN5829S. During channel switching and source selection, the AGC function is switched to “off” and then it can return to the state (“on/off”) as shown in the timing diagram.
Mute
The device must be muted:
• Whenever “User Mute” is activated.
• Whenever there is a channel change, RF to RF, RF to AV, AV to RF, and AV to AV (if any). in the change of channel, MUTE must be activated before any other activation and MUTE off must be done after all activities have been completed.
• Whenever there is signal loss.
• During startup, MUTE must be on until the process is finished.
• When set to STANDBY, MUTE must be activated before any other activity.
Note:
1. MUTE mentioned above applies to the audio amplifier (= mute the PWM volume control).
2. The first condition does not apply to the UOC, CI AN5891K, or CI AN5829S.
3. The above conditions apply to both stereo and mono.
Video
For the detailed description of this part of the circuit, see the L01.2L AA manual. Please note that there may be small differences in the text (eg component positions), but the principle circuit description is supported.
This chassis uses the TDA937x processor (UOC) family, which is mounted in an SDIP 64 package. The various versions of the UOC series combine video processing function in set with microcontroller and Closed Caption decoder/TXT
Timing
In part D inside the CI7200, the horizontal synchronization pulses and vertical are separate. These ‘H’ ‘V’ signals are synchronized with the incoming CVBS signal. They are then sent to the circuits H- and V- drivers and OSD/TXT circuit for OSD synchronization and Teletext information (CC).
Deflection
For the detailed description of this part of the circuit, see the L01.2L AA manual. Please note that there may be small differences in the text (eg component positions), but the principle circuit description is supported.
The L03 range consists of 14 to 21 inch TV sets using the same chassis architecture. Due to this file.
tetura, used CRTs do not require East/West correction.
Therefore the required geometry correction is displacement horizontal, vertical ramp, vertical amplitude, vertical S correction, vertical shift, and vertical zoom (with the required offsets for NTSC channels on PAL sets)
Power Supply
For the detailed description of this part of the circuit, see the L01.2L AA manual. Please note that there may be small differences in the text (eg component positions), but the principle circuit description is supported.
Introduction
Power is provided through a switched source (SMPS). The operating frequency varies with the circuit load.
This 'Quasi-resonant Flyback' behavior has some important benefits compared to a flyback converter with fixed frequency. Efficiency can be improved by up to 90%, which results in lower power consumption. In addition the source works cold and safety is improved.
The control IC on this power supply is the TEA1506 (L01=TEA1507). Unlike the TEA1507 control IC, the TEA 1506 does not have an internal high boot source voltage, and therefore needs to be initiated through a resistor of external bleed (R3506 and R3507). The operating voltage for the driver circuit is also taken from the 'hot' side of this transformer.
The 7520 switching regulator IC starts switching the FET ‘on’ and ‘off’, to control the current flow through the primary winding transformer 5520. The energy stored in the winding primary during the 'on' time is delivered to the secondary winding river during the 'off' time.
The 'MainSupply' line is the reference voltage for the power supply. Food. It is sampled by resistors 3543 and 3544 and sent to the input of the 7540 / 6540 regulator.
This regulator powers the 7515 feedback opto-coupler to adjust the feedback control voltage on pin 6 of 7520.
The source in this appliance is on whenever it is connected to the mains.
Derived Voltages
The voltages generated by the secondary winding of T5520 are:
• MainSupply' for horizontal output
• 'V_aux/V_audio' for the audio circuit
• An optional "DVD_Supply" for future expansions.
Other supply voltages are provided by the LOT. Here -12V supplies the tuner voltage, filament voltage, and a source +160V for the video driver. The secondary voltages of the LOT are monitored by the 'EHT' lines.
Control
UOC microprocessor, has complete control and function of teletext/CC internally. User Menu, Standard Mode of Service/Service Adjustment Mode are generated by µP. Communication to other ICs is done via the I2C bus. I2C-Bus
The main control system, which consists of the microprocessor UOC (7200), is connected to external devices (Tuner, NVM, MSP, etc) via the I2C bus. An internal I2C bus is used to control other signal processing functions, such as video processing, sound FI, video FI, sync, etc.
User Interface
This chassis uses remote control with RC5 protocol. The sign input is sent to pin 67 of the UOC. The ‘Top Control’ keyboard, connected to pin 8 of the UOC, it can also control the device.
Key recognition is done through a voltage.
Front LED (6691) is connected to a control line output of the microprocessor (pin 11). It is activated to provide the information to the user whether or not the device is working properly (eg responding to the remote control, normal operation
(US only) or fault condition)
Input and Output Selection
For the control of input and output selections, there are three lines:
• STATUS1
This signal provides information to the microprocessor where there is a video signal available at the input port and AV output SCART1 (Europe only). This signal is not connected to LATAM/NAFTA devices.
• STATUS2
This signal provides information to the microprocessor from where there is a video signal available at the input port and SCART2 AV output (Europe only). For devices with an SVHS entry it provides additional information if a Y/C or CVBS source is present. The presence of a source external Y/C leaves this line 'high' while a source CVBS leaves this line at 'low' level.
• SEL-_AV1_AV2
This is the microprocessor source selection control signal. This control line is under the user's control or can be activated by two other control lines.
Power Supply Control
The power supply has an interface with the microcontroller (UOC) to provide the power supply with control signals required for operation in standby burst mode and for vary the image size by adjusting the V_BAT.
The microprocessor part is powered with 3.3V and 3.9V both derived from the voltage 'V_aux/V_audio' through a stabilizer of 3V3 (7493). The 8V line is derived from the 33V tuner voltage through TS7491 and TS7496.
Two signals are used to control the power supply:
STD_CON and PW_ADJ.
STD_CON. This signal is generated by the microprocessor when an overcurrent occurs in the 'Main' line. This is done to enable the source in standby burst mode, and to enable this mode during protection. This signal is 'high' (3.3 V) under high voltage conditions.
Normal operation.
During standby or failure mode, this signal is a 5ms pulse in "low" state '0V' and a 'high' pulse with duration of 5 ms.
Note: On chassis L01 the situation is reversed. PW_ADJ This signal is generated by the UOC through the PWM port. this door is configured in Push-Pull mode to generate a wave signal square with duty cycle from 0 to 100% with default value of 50% of the duty cycle. PW_ADJ will eliminate the tolerance and can slightly adjust the image amplitude.
Protection Events
Several protection events are controlled by the UOC. In case one of these protections is activated, the device will go to the Standby mode.
Deflection Guards
The main deflection protections are X-Ray, Fault Detection on the frame amplifier, Loop stability protection black current, and +8V auxiliary supply protection.
For X-ray protection, the X-ray detection bit, XDT, must be always be at '1' (detection mode). High EHT protection must be triggered by the software upon detection that the bit XPR has switched to '1'.
A large number of checks are made before placing the device in protection mode to prevent false alarm.
For service requirements, the vertical protection enable (RGB blanking), EVG, can be disabled (set to '0') but this is not necessary.
The following bits are monitored:
• SUP (Source Voltage Indication)
• XPR (X-Ray Protection)
• EVG (Vertical Protection Qualification)
• NDF (Vertical Protection Output)
• BCF (Black Current Fault)
I2C protection
