SAFETY INFORMATION

1. Parts that have special safety characteristics are identified by the symbol on schematics
or by special notes on the parts list. Use only replacement parts that have critical characteristics recommended by the manufacturer.
2. Make leakage current or resistance measurements to determine that exposed parts are acceptably insulated from the supply circuit before returning the unit to the customer. Use the following checks to perform these measurements:
A. Leakage Current Hot Check-With the unit completely reassembled, plug the AC line cord directly into a 120V AC outlet. (Do not use an isolation transformer during this test.) Use a leakage current tester or a metering system that complies with American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C101.1 "Leakage Current for Appliances" and Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 6500 / IEC 60056 paragraph 9.1.1. With the unit AC switch first in the ON position and then in OFF position, measure from a known earth ground (metal waterpipe, conduit, etc.) to all ex­posed metal parts of the unit (antennas, handle bracket, metal cabinet, screwheads, metallic overlays, control shafts, etc.), especially any exposed metal parts that offer an electrical return path to the chassis. Any current measured must not exceed 0.5 milliamp. Reverse the unit power cord plug in the outlet and repeat test. ANY MEASUREMENTS NOT WITHIN THE LIM­ITS SPECIFIED HEREIN INDICATE A POTENTIAL SHOCK HAZARD THAT MUST BE ELIMI­NATED BEFORE RETURNING THE UNIT TO THE CUSTOMER.
B. Insulation Resistance Test Cold Check-(1) Unplug the power supply and connect a jumper wire between the two prongs of the plug. (2) Turn on the power switch of the unit. (3) Measure the resistance with an ohmmeter between the jumpered AC plug and each exposed metallic cabinet part on the unit. When testing 3 wire products, the resistance measured to the product enclosure should be between 2 and infinite MOhms. Also, the resistance measured to exposed input/output connectors should be between 4 and infinite MOhms. When testing 2 wire products, the resistance measured to exposed input/output connectors should be between 4 and infinite MOhms. If it is not within the limits specified, there is the possibility of a shock hazard, and the unit must be repaired and rechecked before it is returned to the customer.
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE SENSITIVE (ESDS)
DEVICE HANDLING
This unit contains ESDS devices. We recommend the following precautions when repairing, replacing or transporting ESDS devices:
Perform work at an electrically grounded work station.
Wear wrist straps that connect to the station or heel straps that connect to conductive
floor mats.
Avoid touching the leads or contacts of ESDS devices or PC boards even if properly grounded. Handle boards by the edges only.
Transport or store ESDS devices in ESD protective bags, bins, or totes. Do not insert unprotected devices into materials such as plastic, polystyrene foam, clear plastic bags, bubble wrap or plastic trays.

THEORY OF OPERATION
Note: Refer to PS1 Power Stand schematic sheets in the service manual, reference number
264018-SM, for the following information. The information inside the brackets [ ] is the component’s grid location on the schematic sheet.
The PS1 Power Stand combines the traditional functions of a mixer, digital controller (system EQ and limiter), power amplifier and mechanical speaker stand. Figure 1 on page 3 shows the signal flow through the power stand.
The power stand consists of five parts: a switching power supply, 3 channels of amplification on a common PCB, and input panel PCB, DSP PCB, and MCU PCB. The power supply connects to the MCU PCB via a the 8 pin connector CN409 [microprocessor PCB sheet 2, A1], four chan­nels of analog inputs on the panel are connected to the DSP PCB via a 6 pin connector CN104 [DSP PCB sheet 1, B1], analog output signals on the DSP panel are connected to input panel via a 3 pin connector CN115 [input panel PCB sheet 2, D1]. SPDIF IN on the input panel is connected to the DSP PCB via a 2 pin connector CN112 [DSP PCB sheet 2, B4], SPDIF OUT on the DSP PCB is connected to input panel via a 2 pin connector CN113 [DSP PCB sheet 2, C8].
For Channel 1 or 2 the signal is input either through the balanced XLR connector or through the ¼” unbalanced connector. The ¼” connector has a very high impedance (900k ohms) to allow direct connection of passive guitars or bass guitars. The signal is then amplified by the adjust­able pre-amplifier. After the pre-amplifier, the signal can be accessed at the balanced XLR line level output.
Next the signal is routed through a digitally controlled analog volume control. Then, the signal is routed through the insert loop connector. If there is no plug in the insert jack, the signal will be routed through. Otherwise the signal will be routed to the “ring” of the connector and is expected to return from the “tip”. The signal is then digitized in the A/D converters and processed in software. Software provides the following functions.
Channel 1&2: measuring level for LED
Channel 1&2: noise gate
Channel 1&2: preset EQ
Channel 1&2: channel volume
Sum channels 1 to 4
Master Volume Control
System EQ and crossover (for L1 and B1)
Limiter & soft clipper (for L1 and B1 amplifiers)
Signal Processing
Signal processing is mainly implemented by the DSP and includes the following functions:
Noisegate & limiter
Tone control & volume control
Parameter equalize & System equalizer
Clip calculate

Power supplies
To ensure that the system operates normally, the system must be supplied with seven different voltage levels, +3.3V, +5V, +15V, -15V, +24V, +27V, and -27V. Refer to the block diagram below.

Figure 6. DC Power Supply Block Diagram

THEORY OF OPERATION
110V AC is changed to about 300V DC, after passing through the EMI filter and the Diode Bridge. Then, the voltage signal is divided two ways: one DC voltage goes through the switch control & auxiliary circuit1 again, enters into the transformer primary1. The transformer1 has five secondary windings, the first outputs +24V DC (for the input panel), the second outputs +15V DC (for A/D, D/A buffer circuit), the third outputs –15V DC (for A/D, D/A buffer circuit), the fourth outputs +5V DC (for MCU and other ICs), the fifth outputs +3.3V DC (for DSP, A/D & D/A IC).
Another DC voltage goes through the switch control & auxiliary circuit2 and enters into trans­former primary2. The transformer1 has two secondary, the first outputs -27V DC (for AMP), the second outputs +27V DC (for AMP).
Operation of the all voltage switching regulator is more complicated. The load of +3.3V is the heaviest, so we get this +3.3V as feedback a signal and send it to the switch control & auxiliary circuit1. When the system works, if +3.3V happens to waver, switch control & auxiliary circuit1 will change ‘open’ and ‘close’ time of switch circuit to regulate the transformer primary1, accord­ingly, the voltage of transformer1 secondary will keep stable. Of course, in this way, the effect of stabilization for +3.3V is best, and that for other voltage is worse.
The regulation of the power supply for AMP is like this: we get the +27V as feedback signal and send it to switch control & auxiliary circuit2. When system works, if +27V happens to waver, switch control & auxiliary circuit2 will change ‘open’ and ‘close’ time of switch circuit to regulate the transformer primary2, accordingly, the voltage of transformer2 secondary will keep stable.
When the system works, +5V can supply 100mA to MCU PCB, +3.3V can supply 260mA to DSP PCB, +15V can supply 200mA to DSP PCB, -15V can supply 150mA to DSP PCB, and the +24V can supply 50mA to the Input Panel PCB.
Microcontroller
A microcontroller on the MCU PCB is used for the following control functions:
Relay DSP information to Remote
Relay Remote information to DSP
Control channel volume IC
Check channel preset switch
Check bass send state
Check power & amplification protection
Check the number of bass speaker
Indicate current system working status with a three color LED
These functions are explained in detail on the next page.

THEORY OF OPERATION
Relay DSP information to Remote
The DSP needs to transfer the clip state, channel volume data (cause the table for channel volume in the DSP), and the system working status to the MCU. The communication adopts software simulation UART, with two I/O pins as RX and TX. The communication rate is 4800bps, add a start bit and stop, so every sending byte has 10 bits. Data is sent according to frame format: frame head | every data | check sum. DSP will transfer a frame every 100ms, and every sending will take about 15ms.
The MCU needs to transfer the clip state to the Remote. The communication adopts hardware UART. Communication rate is 9600bps, Data is sent according to the MIDI protocol: MIDI chan­nel number | MIDI parameter type | MIDI parameter value. The DSP will transfer a frame data every 100ms, and every sending will take about 3.5ms.
Relay Remote information to DSP
The remote needs to transfer the Ch1EQHi, Ch2EQHi, Ch1EQMi, Ch2EQMi, Ch1EQLo, Ch2EQLo, Ch1Volume, Ch1Volume, and the MasterVolume to MCU. The communication adopts hardware UART. Communication rate is 9600bps, Data is send according to MIDI protocol: MIDI channel number | MIDI parameter type | MIDI parameter value. DSP will transfer a frame data every 100ms, and every sending will take about 30ms.
The MCU needs to transfer the Ch1EQHi, Ch2EQHi, Ch1EQMi, Ch2EQMi, Ch1EQLo, Ch2EQLo, Ch1Volume, Ch1Volume, MasterVolume, Ch1Preset, Ch2Preset, BassChk, and the CheckSum to the DSP. The communication adopts software simulation UART, with two I/O pin as RX and TX. Communication rate is 4800bps, add start bit and stop, so every sending byte has 10 bits. Data is send according to frame format: every data | check sum. DSP will transfer a frame every 100ms, and every sending will take about 30ms.
Control channel volume IC
Because the design requires that the channel signal could change from –40dB to 0dB, we use a volume control IC. There are three pins used to control the volume control IC: CLK, DATA, STB. CLK, DATA and the STB time sequence is implemented by software.
Check channel preset switch
In the audio processing, there is a parameter equalizer, and the system supplies 100 sets of coefficients for this function. A user could choose a different coefficient to get different sound effects. This channel preset switch is a user interface to provide the function for choosing a different coefficient.
Check bass send state
There is a bass-line out plug on the input panel. Through this plug, the system can connect to additional power stands to drive additional bass modules. The bass send state only has two logic states “0” or “1”, indicating unconnected and connected. Different states will choose differ­ent coefficients for the limiter and the system equalizer.
Check power & amplification protection
When the power supply and amplification have a problem, the system will indicate this to the user by an LED on the input panel. The power & amplification protection signal also only has two logic states “0” or “1”, indicating unprotected and protected.
9
THEORY OF OPERATION
Bass module sensing circuitry
On the bass connector, there are four pins. 1+ and 1- outputs bass signal, 2+ and 2- is used to check the number of bass modules connected to the power stand. When there is no bass module connected, the resistance value between 2+ and 2- is greater than 10k ohms, when one bass module is connected to the power stand, the resistance between 2+ and 2- is equal to 10k ohms, when two bass modules are connected, the resistance value between 2+ and 2- is equal to 5k ohms, when there are more than two bass loudspeakers, the resistance value between 2+ and 2- is less than 5k ohms. Once the system detects how many, if any bass modules are connected to the power stand, it will adjust the output level and the EQ accordingly to provide the proper outputs for that configuration.
System Status LED
On the input panel PCB, there is a three color LED. The different colors of this LED represent different operating conditions for the power stand.
Green: operating normally
Green blink fast: updating software or preset
Green blink slowly: software update success
Red blink slowly: software update failure
Orange: power or amplification protection enabled (fault condition)
Codec
In the system, there are five codec ICs: U386 (for Ch1 & Ch2 A/D), U385 (for Ch3 & Ch4 A/D), U387 (for line & bass D/A) [DSP PCB sheet 1, B/C/D5], U431 (for SPDIF IN) [DSP PCB sheet 2, D3], U435 (for SPDIF OUT) [DSP PCB sheet 2, B6].
U386, U385, U387, U431, and U435 include the following functions:
U386: Two channels of 24-bit ADC, one for Ch1 analog input and one for Ch2 analog input.
The ADC will input signal levels in levels in excess of 2Vrms. Master mode.
U385: Two channels of 24-bit ADC, one for Ch1 analog input and one for Ch2 analog input.
The ADC will input signal levels in levels in excess of 2Vrms. Slave mode.
U387: Two channels of 24-bit DAC, one for Line analog output and one for Bass analog
output. Maximum output signal level is 2Vrms. Slave mode.
U431: Two channels of 24-bit digital audio interface receiver.8:2 S/PDIF Input MUX, AES/

it is 12.288MHz / 256 = 48KHz.

THEORY OF OPERATION
DSP
The DSP, U461 [DSP PCB sheet 3, B4] is an Analog Devices 21065L general purpose floating
point digital signal processor. There are two of these DSP ICs used in the system. Each is
capable of about 40MIPs of performance. The DSPs are mainly used to process sound effects.
They provide:
Two channels noise gate
Two channels tone control
Two channels clip calculate
Two channels parameter equalizer
Four channels mixer
Two channels system equalizer
Two channels limiter
The DSPs have no internal ROM, at boot time they load themselves from the external FLASH
U462 [C7]. This boot process is more or less automatic, no intervention from the microcontroller
is required.
The signal required to connect the DSPs to the boot FLASH include:
An external data address bus (24 bits, of which 18 are used)
An external data bus (32 bits, of which 8 are used)
Bus control signals
Finally the signals are brought out through a D/A stereo converter. The “left” channel contains
the signal for the L1, the “right” channel the signal for the bass module. The L1 signal is routed
to power amps 1 and 2, the B1 signal to power amp 3. The B1 signal is also available as a
balanced signal at the “Bass Line Out” TRS connector.
Each power amp has an external input that replaces the signal from the D/A converter when a
plug is inserted. In addition there is an “All Amps In” input that replaces the input signal to all 3
power amps when inserted. Individual inputs take precedence over the “All Amps Input”. Each
power amp output is available through a Neutrik
nally the outputs of power amp 1 and 2 are routed to a Molex connector in the base of the
power stand which connects to the L1s when inserted. Power Amp 1 gets routed to the upper L1
and power amp 2 to the lower L1.

1.2 Gain Specifications
THEORY OF OPERATION
1.2.1 Purpose and Philosophy
The purpose of this specification is to define all relevant gain levels in the Bose Amplification System™ Power Stand and to specify procedures, for how these gains can be measured.
We’ll do this primarily by specifying a “nominal” level at each point. The “nominal” level repre­sents the desired operating point. This is the level where we anticipate that the bulk of operation occurs. Wherever warranted we will also do a headroom analysis in order to specify or derive the maximum acceptable level before a stage clips or overloads.
The gain structure is designed in a way so that there is one point that handles the main system constraint. This point is the digital limiter inside the DSP. If all levels are “nominal” the system should just reach full output, the digital limiter should just be starting to work and all other analog signals (except for the power amp, off course) should still have reasonable amounts of headroom. This design allows controlling the high-signal behavior of the system completely in software through the digital limiter and still offers good signal-to-noise properties.
1.2.2 Gains and Signal Levels
First, we need to define some reference levels for all the adjustable controls in the system. For the “nominal” signal levels, we assume certain settings in those controls, and define the gain of each adjustable section.

Next we define all the nominal signal levels for full power output. All signal levels are specified in dBV unbalanced unless otherwise noted. All levels in front of the DSP can be measured as such directly. The post-DSP peak output levels can only be observed when the limiter is switched off.

Table 2. Nominal and Peak Signal Levels

This nominal = the output level of a Shure SM58 microphone that is exposed to 104 dBSPL.
This nominal = the output level of an AKG C4000 microphone that is exposed to 120 dBSPL.

Peak limited by A/D input overload. D/A output filter gain = -1.5dB
The total excess gain in the DSP will be 16 dB, with a nominal setting of +10dB. Again we assume 0dBFS = +6dBV. It is the responsibility of the digital limiter to ensure that power amp does not clip, i.e. that the output will not exceed 0 dBV Limiter engaged (normal operation) / Debug Bass Out can be used Balanced / Un-balanced
referenced to full output power, so nominal & peak are the same
@ 4 ohms
The minimum input level that would allow the system to reach full output (with all gain controls all the way up) is -72 dBV. This is the output level of a Shure SM58 being exposed to about 78 dB SPL and should be sufficient for almost any application.
This gain scaling puts the main responsibility for the high-signal performance of the system on the digital limiters. The limiters need to make sure that the output never exceeds 0dBV. The extra 6 dB headroom in the DSP can be used to compensate for gain variance in the power amp and to allow the DSP to overdrive the power amps for very short periods of time. It may turn out, that, for certain instruments, this will be required to achieve maximum SPL at acceptable sound quality.

1.2.3 LED Trigger Level
The system has also two signal/clip LED indicators. The signal LED should turn on as soon as the level reaches -30 dB versus nominal level and the clip LED should light at +6 dB versus nominal level.

1.3 Auto-detection, Operational Modes and Debug Mode
1.3.1 Rational and Operational Modes
The system can be set up in a variety of different bass configurations. There is some concern, for example, that a system consisting of a power stand, 2 line arrays and 2 bass modules may not produce enough bass output for (e.g.) bass players or a kick drum. To this end we have provided the “Bass Send” output on the power stand that can be connected to the “All Amps In” input of a second power stand. That second power stand does NOT have any line arrays con­nected but can drive between 1 and 6 additional bass modules. Figures 7-10 show typical configurations.
-30 dBV +6 dBV At Mic/Line PreAmp Output. All levels unbalanced (at internal measurement points)
-40 dBV -4 dBV At A/D input. This corresponds to -46 dBFS and -10 dBFS respectively. There is 10 dB headroom between the clip indicator coming on and the point where the A/D would actually clip

Ideally, at low levels all bass configurations should produce the same spectral balance, and the main difference between the “light” system and the “heavy” system should be that the “heavy” system can produce 18dB more SPL before the limiter kicks in.
If we label the system with 2 bass modules “nominal” and assign it a relative level of 0dB, we would have to apply the following gains to achieve equal spectral balance.

Table 4. Ideal and actual bass EQ gains

Unfortunately, the first power stand (which provides the EQ and gain for all bass signals) has no way of knowing how many bass modules are connected to the second external power stand and currently there is no user interface that would allow the user to specify that in any way. There­fore, we have chosen to implement a constant drop of -6 dB whenever something is connected to the bass send output. This will work perfectly for the first 3 cases in Table 5, but lead to exces­sive bass in the last 2 cases. The amount of excess bass is 3.5dB for 6 bass modules and 6dB for 8 bass modules. Given the fact that the user probably wants lot of bass in these configura­tions, the excess bass is deemed acceptable.

1.3.2 Implementation
The power stands detects: a) The number of bass modules B1 connected to “Amp3 out”. This is done by measuring the impedance between pins 2+ and 2- of the “Amp 3 out” connector. The B1 bass module has a 10k ohm resistor between those to pins. b) The insertion of a 1/4" jack into the “Bass Line Out”. A normalling connection of this jack is connected directly to a flag pin on the DSP.
Depending on these detections, the PS1 will change system EQ and limiter settings. This infor­mation is collected by the DSP and determines EQ and limiter settings through a lookup table:

1.3.3 Debug Mode
Debug mode is entered when a resistance of 1k ohm or less is detected between pins 2- and 2+ at the “Amp3 Out” connector. In debug mode, all system EQ’s are set to “flat” and the internal limiters are bypassed. Most measurements should be done in debug mode.
A simple way to switch between the different modes is to create a “dummy” cable that brings out pins 2- and 2+ to a banana plug. The modes can be switched by applying different numbers of 10k ohm resistors or a short between the leads of the banana plug. Pins 1+ and 1- of the “dummy” cable can still be routed to a Speakon

connector to attach B1 bass modules.

THEORY OF OPERATION
1.4 Power Supply Electronics
The PS1 is powered by a total of four distinct switch-mode power supplies. All of these are fed approximately 340VDC from the single input filter PC Board which contains numerous EMI filtering components, in addition to a bridge rectifier and storage capacitors C607 and C608 [FCC Filter PCB sheet1, C4]. NTC thermistors TH601 & TH602 [C2] provide added resistance at start-up to lower the inrush current.
Three identical board assemblies provide a separate ±27VDC to each of the power amplifier channels. These are regulated with a transformer-coupled, two-FET forward converter topology. Isolation is provided by the main transformer T503 [27 Volt Power Supply PCB sheet 1, C4], and by the gate-drive transformer T502 [A3]. In addition to the internal over-current protection pro­vided in the controller IC, there is an external input which shuts down an individual channel’s power supply if a fault is sensed by the respective amplifier channel.
The fourth SMPS PC Board assembly, known as the Auxiliary Power Supply, provides all of the other low-voltage, low-power DC voltages required by the remainder of the PS1’s electronics. These are ±15V, +24V, +5V and +3.3V. They are regulated with a direct-coupled, single-FET flyback converter topology. Isolation is provided by the main flyback transformer T601 [Auxiliary Power Supply PCB sheet 1, C2], and by two opto-couplers IC602 and IC606 [B3]. Feedback for regulation is derived from the 3.3V digital and +15V analog outputs. Regulation of the other outputs depends on close coupling of transformer T601’s secondaries.
The +24V output is used to power the cooling fans [sheet 2, D3], which are in turn driven in proportion to the output signal level. +24V is also used to provide phantom power for the micro­phone inputs. +5 and +3.3V outputs are used primarily to power the DSP, A/D & D/A converters, microcontrollers, remote control communications, etc. The ±15V outputs power the numerous OpAmps and other analog circuitry.
1.5 Audio Signal Path
1.5.1 General Notes - All Analog Inputs and Outputs
All user-accessible inputs and outputs are protected from RF interference (EMI) and static discharge (ESD) by rail-rail diode clamps, spark gaps, and RC filtering. Extensive filtering is also applied to speaker, power and Remote connections to prevent transmitted or received interfer­ence. All Analog inputs and outputs are configured as non-inverting, i.e. all ins and outs are in phase with each other. Standard polarity conventions apply; XLR connectors are wired pin 2 pos, pin 3 neg.
The remote control does not carry any analog signals, rather it transmits MIDI code bi­directionally over an 8-conductor MIDI cable.
1.5.2 Preamplifier
The INA163 low-noise instrumentation amplifier forms the core of the PreAmp section. Gain of both the Mic and Line inputs is determined by the impedance between the RG pins 12 and 3, which consists of Trim control VR101/102 [input panel PCB sheet 1, A3 and C3] and R133/ R168. The balanced microphone input is protected from EMI, ESD and DC voltages (including phantom power) by a rail-rail diode clamp, spark gaps, and numerous R’s and C’s. The un­balanced Line input is buffered by FET-input OpAmp U101A [D2] / U103A [B2] to maintain the very high input impedance which is often required by instruments with magnetic pickups. R105 and 107 attenuate the Line input to an appropriate level as it is fed into the INA163.
18
THEORY OF OPERATION
Input “combo-jacks” J101 and J102 [C1, A1] are configured so that outputs from buffer amps U101A & U103A are shorted to ground when a ¼” plug is not inserted into J101 or J102 – this eliminates the OpAmps’s noise contribution when the Mic input is in use, or when the channel is not being used. U101B and U103B provide “DC servo” feedback to the INA163’s to effectively null out any DC that would appear on their outputs.
Phantom Power
Condenser microphones are popular for many applications; they require a balanced external power source applied equally to pins 2 & 3 of the XLR-type microphone connector. In addition to an on/off switch and pilot LED, additional circuitry is provided to enable the +24VDC Phantom power supplies to ramp up and down at a relatively slow rate, thereby preventing turn-on and turn-off pops and clicks.
1.5.3 Line Out
The Ch1 and Ch2 XLR balanced Line Outputs are driven by OpAmps U106 and U107 [A6, C6]. These stages translate the internal PreAmp output signal to a differential balanced output.
1.5.4 Digitally Controlled Analog Volume
Ch1 and Ch2 Volume controls are implemented though a Toshiba TCA9459F chip, U302 [micro­processor PCB sheet 1, C3]. This chip contains a resistor ladder and a series of analog switches that attenuate the input according to serial commands from the microcontroller. Attenuation of 0dB to -89dB (plus “off”) is available in steps of 1dB, but the PS1’s software contains a look-up table to access a subset of these steps. This optimizes the feel of the control over the range of 0 to -40dB. The range is restricted to prevent the user from inadvertently turning the signal path completely off.
1.5.5 Channel Insert
J105 and J106 [input panel PCB sheet 1, B5] are stereo ¼” jacks configured with the output (“Send”) connected to the Ring terminal, and the input (“Return”) connected to the tip. Usually, this would be used with a special “insert Y-cord” to route the Ch1 or Ch2 signal to an external effects device such as a reverb, chorus, etc. If a 2-conductor (mono) ¼” plug is fully inserted, the signal will be routed directly into the A/D converter, bypassing all of Ch1 or Ch2’s PreAmp and Channel Volume control circuitry.
1.5.6 Channel 3 & 4 Inputs
The input signals are received through J107 [C8] /J108 [A8]. These are unbalanced 1/4" jacks which short the input to ground if nothing is inserted. The signal is attenuated by VR103/VR104, AC coupled, buffered and amplified through U108A/U108B and then routed to the A/D converter U385 [DSP PCB sheet 1, D5] (Crystal CS5361). Because there is no active circuitry between the inputs and the level controls, judicious setting of the controls can allow Ch3 and Ch4 to accept very high input levels.
1.5.7 Analog to Digital Converters (Analog)
The PS1 has two stereo A/D converters Crystal CS5361. U386 [C5] receives channels 1 and 2, U385 receives channels 3 and 4. Each channel signal is received on the DSP board through CN104 [B1]. Each signal is AC-coupled, buffered and balanced through op-amp pairs (U381A/B – U384A/B). All eight resulting signals are clipped with diode pairs and routed to the A/D chips.
19
THEORY OF OPERATION
1.5.8 Digital to Analog Converter (Analog)
The stereo D/A converter U387 [B5] is of type Crystal CS4392. It has two symmetrical outputs that get turned into an unbalanced signal through difference amplifier U388A [D7] /U388B [B7]. These OpAmp sections also form additional 2-pole low-pass filters that help remove out-of-band components from the audio output. The “left” output contains the signal for L1 Cylindrical Radia­tor™ loudspeaker and the “right” output contains the signal for the B1 bass module. These get routed through CN115 back to the input panel board.
1.5.9 Power Amp Inputs and Bass Line Out
J113 Bass Line Out jack [input panel PCB sheet 2, D3] provides a TRS balanced & buffered version of the “right” / bass output from the D/A. This is used primarily for driving another PS1, which in turn powers 2-6 additional B1 Bass Modules (see 1.3.1 figure 10, “Heavy Bass” con­figuration). Both + and – signals are resistor-isolated so that either balanced or unbalanced ¼” phone connections may be used.
An “All-Amps-In” connector J112 [C1] allows a single input to drive all 3 amplifiers equally. This will most often be driven from the Bass Line Out of another PS1 as mentioned above. J112’s switching configuration allows both high and low frequency channels to drive the appropriate channels when the All-Amps-In connector isn’t in use, and allows the addition of a buffer U112A [B3] to maintain a greater than 10k ohm input impedance when the connector is used.
J114, 115 and 116 [C/D4] allow each power amplifier to be driven separately; this would gener­ally only be used in special applications where a single “slave” PS1 is used to add bass from two different “master” PS1’s.
1.5.10 Power Amplifiers Note: Refer to the Digital Amplifier PCB schematic sheets for the following information.
Each of the PS1’s 3 amplifier channels is implemented with a 2-chip Class-D solution from Philips. The three identical channels are located on one PCB assembly, but they are kept independent by separate power supply, I/O and control connections. Each TDA8929T PWM controller (U803, U806 and U809) [sheets 2, 3 and 4, C4] interfaces directly to two TDA8927J (U801, U802, U804, U805, U807 and U808) power output stages. Normally, only one 8927 is used, but in our case, the two halves of each 8927 are operated in parallel (doubling the avail­able output current), and the two paralleled chips are driven out of phase to achieve the bridged output configuration. Current sharing between the two halves of the 8927 chips is achieved by a separate output LC filter for each section. The direct interface allows excess current in any one of the output stages to immediately shut down all drive signals from the 8929 controller chip. Numerous bypassing and filtering elements are added to the power amplifier to mitigate the effects of the high currents at the nominal switching frequency of about 300 kHz.
In addition to the overcurrent shutdown path (amp shuts down power supply), there is other outboard circuitry added to shut down an amplifier channel if the corresponding power supply voltage is too low (usually due to extreme overdrive), and also another path to shut down a channel’s power amp and power supply if excess DC voltage appears at the output.

THEORY OF OPERATION
1.6 Digital Audio
1.6.1 Overview
The PS1 contains a DSP Analog Devices 21065L, U461 [DSP PCB sheet 3, B4] and a one time programmable micro-controller U342 [microprocessor PCB sheet 2, C3]. The microcontroller essentially interfaces to all peripherals and communicates the information from/to the peripher­als to the DSP which contains most of the intelligence of the system. In addition the microcontroller acts as a watchdog for the DSP, i.e. it will reset the DSP if the DSP chip hangs up.
1.6.2 Audio Clocking
The audio signal processing is done at 48 kHz which gets created by an internal 12.288 MHz (= 256*48kHz) oscillator. XTAL431 [DSP PCB sheet 2, B3] and distributed through U434 [B5]. The PS1 can receive SPDIF through the DATA In connector, but this data is received asynchro­nously to the actual audio data. This is different from most other Bose master clock is derived from a digital input (if it exists).

Digital audio is transported through an I
2
S interface (Serial data, Bit clock, Left/Right clock). U386 [DSP PCB sheet 1, C5] (channel 1/2 A/D) generates the bit clock and the Left/Right clock. These clocks get buffered through U433 [DSP PCB sheet 2, C5] and routed to U385 [DSP PCB sheet 1, D4] (channel 3/4 A/D), U387 [B4] (D/A), SPORT 1 (serial port 1) of the DSP, and the SPDIF transmitter U435 [DSP PCB sheet 2, B7] (Crystal 8046).
1.6.3 Digital to Analog and Analog to Digital Converters (Digital)
Both A/D converters (U385/U386) and the D/A (U387) are hardware configured. U386 is config­ured as a master and U385 as a slave. The DSP can reset the A/D through FLAG3 and the D/A through FLAG2. The data is received by the DSP on SPORT1 (serial port 1) channel A (U385) and channel B (U386). The DSP transmits the audio data again on SPORT1 (serial port 1) channel A (to the D/A, U387) and channel B (SPDIF transmitter, U435).
1.6.4 SPDIF Interface
The SPDIF output provides the unprocessed audio received from channel 1 and 2. It is basically a digital copy of the input signals to U386. The audio is sent by the DSP through channel B on SPORT1 in I2S mode and received by U435, a Crystal 8046 SPDIF transmitter. U435 can be reset by the DSP through FLAG1. U435 generates proper SPDIF signals and these get routed through a transformer T431, through CN113 back to the Data Out connector on the panel board.
The “Data In” SPDIF input is NOT designed to receive actual audio, but to receive data that is disguised as a SPDIF bit stream. The SPDIF input is clocked independent from the rest of the system. The signal is received on the “Data In” connector on the panel board and routed through CN112 to the DSP board and received by Crystal 8416 SPDIF receiver (U431), which performs clock and data recovery. The data is transferred through an I2S interface to the DSP and re­ceived through SPORT0 on channel A. The DSP evaluates the data asynchronously. The DSP can reset U431 through FLAG0 and can monitor the whether the U431 has valid audio through FLAG8.

1.7 Digital Signal Processor
1.7.1 Architecture
The DSP is an Analog Devices ADSP21065L processor. It boots from an EEPROM SST20LE020, U462 [DSP PCB sheet 3, C7]. U462 accessed through boot memory space and through external memory space 3. Either BMS or MS3 on the DSP will chip enable U462 and then a standard write/read enable interface is used to address U462. The DSP is reset by the microcontroller through RESET. Chip clock is locally provided through XTAL461 [A2] at 30 MHz resulting in a 60 MHz internal clock speed.
1.7.2 Interface to Microcontroller
Besides the audio peripherals described in the previous section, the DSP only interface to the microcontroller. The DSP receives data on FLAG4 (P10 on the micro), transmits data on FLAG5 (P11 on the micro) and FLAG11/P12 provide clocking. RESET/P13 provides the reset for the DSP and the watchdog functionality. The interface signals are routed through CN341 [micropro­cessor PCB sheet 2, C8] between DSP and microcontroller board.

1.9 Software and User Interface
The Bose which is mostly implemented in software. In this chapter we describe how most of the functions are implemented.
1.9.1 Gain Staging
Gain staging is the process of properly adjusting the gain of the system. The goal is to set the gains as high as possible (to optimized signal/noise) without overdriving or clipping any elec­tronic components. In contrast to home-audio products, musical instrument and microphones have a large variation of output gains and gain staging is typically required.
On Channel 1 and 2, the user needs to set the trim control on the power stand so that the overload LED just turns red for the loudest anticipated input signals and then back up a little. This is done purely in analog and the goal is to not overload the preamplifier.
Next the user should adjust the channel volume on the remote so that the LED on the remote does not turn red. The LEDs are calibrated so that for sine wave input, nothing connected to the insert loop, and the channel volume at the 12 o’clock setting both LEDs turn red at the same level.
1.9.2 Channel Volume
The microcontroller polls the remote in regular intervals, about 10 times per second. The microcontroller then maps the settings to a range from -40 to 0 dB and programs the volume control chip U302 through its digital control interface. The volume control should span a range of 40 dB with a linear (in dB) range from -30dB to -10dB from all the way down to 12 o’clock and a range from -10dB to 0dB for 12 o’clock to “all the way up” setting.

1.9.4 Master Volume
The microcontroller polls the remote in regular intervals. The microcontroller transfers the mas­ter volume setting to the DSP which implements them for each channel as shown in Figure 5. The master volume should mute the system if all the way down and then ramp up to a nominal value of 0dB at the center position. From the center position to “all the way up” the master volume increases the gain by another 12 dB.
1.9.5 Preset Switching
The microcontroller polls the preset switches on the panel board in regular intervals and trans­fers the values to the DSP. If the DSP detects a change in the setting, it will mute the respective channel, load the new filter coefficients according to a lookup table, clear the filter state coeffi­cients and un-mute the channel again. This takes about 1 to 2 seconds.
Presets are basically a spectral correction (like an EQ) to the signal. Preset “00” corresponds to flat. An easy preset to check is 97 which is a 1 kHz band pass filter (“telephone” sound). In addition to the spectral EQ, there is also a noise gate available.
1.9.6 Bass Line Out Detection
The microcontroller polls the normalling switch on the Bass Line Out connector in regular inter­vals and transfers its state to the DSP. If the DSP detects a change in the state, it will mute the entire power stand, latch in new system EQ coefficients through a lookup table, clear the system EQ state variables and un-mute the power stand. This takes about 1 to 2 seconds.
1.9.7 Bass Module Detection
The microcontroller measures the resistance between the pins 2- and 2+ of the Amp3 Out connector in regular intervals and transfers the setting to the DSP. If the DSP detects a big enough change in the setting, it will mute the entire power stand, latch in new system EQ coeffi­cients through a lookup table, clear the system EQ state variables and un-mute the power stand. This takes about 1 to 2 seconds.

THEORY OF OPERATION
1.10 Power Cycling
1.10.1 Power Up
When power is first applied, 110V AC is applied to the primary side of the transformer1, and at the secondary side of the transformer1 will charge up +24V, +15V, -15V, +5V, +3.3V. And after 7 ms, they become stable almost at the same time. But +27V/-27 for amplification is late other voltage about 6ms.
Power-up time complies with the following sequence:
With +3.3V, +5V, +15V, -15V, the ADC/DAC/buffer circuit/MCU starts to work
After power on 15ms, amplifier starts to work
DSP uses RC reset. After about 300ms, DSP starts to work
After DSP starts to work, DSP first resets ADC, then digital receiver, and then digital
transmitter, then DAC. Every reset time is 100ms
After power on about 700ms, latest DAC’s reset is completed
At this point, normal signal processing commences. But in order to get correct remote value & preset number & number of bass, DSP mutes input signal, and it should no more than
1.5 seconds from the time power is applied until the time audio appears at the speaker output.
1.10.2 Power Down
Upon power-down the muting circuitry comprised of Q810, Q811, DZ805, R895 and C959 [digital amplifier PCB sheet 3, D2] is responsible to mute any noise coming out from the output of U387 CS4392 Digital-to-Analog converter.
The principle is to detect the voltage VDDA falling below 22 volts. This will cut off the DZ805 Zener diode and Q810 NPN transistor. This in turn will turn on Q811 NPN transistor and pull the voltage of U806 pin 6 from 5 volt to 0 volt. This action will shut down the class-D amplifier U804 and U805 so that any noise will be muted.
1.11 Software and Preset / EQ Updates
The PS1 software and Preset /EQ files can be updated via the Data In jack J109 [input panel PCB sheet 2, A1] on the PS1 input panel. Refer to the software update procedures in the ap­pendix of this troubleshooting guide.
2. Remote R1
The Remote is a wired remote, connected to the PS1 power stand via an 8 pin MIDI cable. There are a total of nine knobs on the remote, their functions is as follow:
Knob for tone regulation
Knob for channel volume control
Knob for master volume control
Two LEDs to indicate clip
The communication between the remote control and the PS1 power stand uses the MIDI proto­col, operating at 9600baud. The remote control is non-repairable.

THEORY OF OPERATION
3. Cylindrical Radiator™ Loudspeaker L1
The L1 Cylindrical Radiator speaker array consists of two sections, an upper and lower section, with 12 drivers each for a total of 24 drivers. The lower array section plugs directly into the cavity in the center of the PS1 power stand. Electrical connections are made via Molex connectors in the PS1 and the bottom of the lower array section. The upper section of the line array plugs directly into the top of the bottom section, aligned by a bayonet pin. Electrical connection is made by another Molex connector to the top of the lower array section. The result is that there are no cables needed to connect the line array sections to the PS1 power stand.
There is no crossover or protection circuitry in either section of the line array. All protection and EQ is performed in the PS1 power stand. The drivers of both sections are replaceable, as are the grilles and the Bose
4. Bass Module B1
The B1 bass module is a dedicated passive unit that houses two 5 1/4” drivers. The input is via two 4-pole Neutrik® Speakon® connectors on the rear panel. Both of these inputs are paralleled, allowing you to jumper multiple bass modules together. There are no crossover or protection ciricuit components located on the input panel. All EQ and protection is performed in the PS1 power stand.

logo.
Pins 1+ and 1- of the input connector are used to apply the input signal to the bass module. Pins 2+ and 2- are connected to a 10k ohm resistor on the bass module rear panel PCB. This allows the PS1 power stand to detect how many bass modules are connected to it from the Bass/Amp3 Out connector.
If the PS1 sees a 10k resistance, it knows that there is only one bass module connected and adjusts the output level and EQ accordingly. If the PS1 sees 5k ohm resistance, it knows that there are 2 bass modules connected, and again, adjusts the output level and EQ accordingly. If the PS1 sees an infinite resistance, it knows that there is no bass module connected and adjusts accordingly.
The woofers in the bass module are replaceable. The input panel, grille and Bose logo are also replaceable.

PS1 Power Stand Software Update Procedure

Required Equipment:
1- CD player with a S/PDIF digital output (do not use a Bose® Lifestyle® media center) 1- PS1 Power Stand update CD (see the instructions for creating this disc below) 1- S/PDIF video cable, part number 183200, or an audio cable with RCA connectors 1- PS1 Power Stand AC line cord, part number 273790
PS1 Power Stand Update CD Procedure:
Go to the Bose Technical Service web page at http://intranet.bose.com/tsg (Bose internal
repair centers) or http:serviceops.bose.com (external Bose affiliated repair centers).
Navigate to the Personal Amplification System web page. The link is located on the
Pro Products web page.
Scroll down the Personal Amplification System web page to the PS1 Power Stand software
link. You should see two files, one to update the PS1 firmware and another file to update the PS1 presets. Download the files to your computer’s desktop.
Using a CD burner and your CD burner software, burn the files onto a blank CD-R or CD-RW
disc. Each file must be burned onto its own disc for the updates to work properly. Once these discs are successfully created, label the discs with the software revisions.
Update Procedure:
Plug the CD player into an AC mains outlet.
Connect the S/PDIF cable to the Audio Outputs/Digital jack on the back of the CD player.
Connect the other end of the S/PDIF cable to the DATA IN jack on the PS1 Power Stand’s
input panel. This jack is located in the middle of the panel. It’s an RCA jack with a white center.
Connect the PS1 Power Stand’s AC line cord to AC mains. Turn on the PS1. Wait for the
power LED to light steady green.
Turn on the CD player. Load the software update CD into the CD player. Press the PLAY CD/
DVD button on the remote control. The update process should begin.
Wait about 5 seconds while the disc is playing. The green power LED on the PS1 Power Stand
should blink rapidly, about 10 times per second. After about 10 seconds, the LED should begin to blink slower, about twice a second.
The update process is complete. Repeat the above steps for the EQ preset disc. Power down
the PS1 Power Stand. Disconnect the S/PDIF cable from the DATA IN jack.
Verify proper operation of the PS1 Power Stand using the test procedures in this troubleshoot-
ing guide before returning the unit to the customer.
Troubleshooting:
Problems with this update procedure are indicated by the PS1 Power Stand’s power LED. Typical indicators are:
LED stays a steady green.
LED blinks slowly red
In either case, simply repeat the process above. Make sure you wait 5 seconds after power up of the PS1 Power Stand before playing the update disc. Ensure all of the cables are properly connected.

PS1 Power Stand Test Cables
Note: In order to be able to properly test the PS1 Power Stand, you will need to make up a few
test cables.
1. Amplifier Output Test Cable:
Parts needed:
®
1- Neutrik
NL4FX Speakon® X-Line/4 Pole connector. 4 - Dual banana jacks 2 - 10k ohm, 1/4 Watt resistors 16 or 18 AWG twisted pair wire, 6 feet 18 AWG twisted pair wire, 2 feet
This cable is used to connect the Amp 1 OUT, Amp 2 OUT or Bass/Amp3 OUT jacks to the load resistors used in the test procedures. The connector used is a Neutrik NL4FX Speakon X-Line / 4 Pole type. This connector has 4 terminals labeled 1+, 1-, 2+ and 2-. Terminals 1+ and 1- are used to connect to the load resistors. Use 18 or 16 AWG wire for these terminals. Use twisted pair wires to avoid inducing noise into the cable during use.
The 2+ and 2- terminals will be used to sense the loads connected to the Speakon connector when used with the Bass/Amp3 OUT jack. The load on this jack automatically sensed in order to properly tailor the EQ and output level for the connection of one or two bass modules. It does this by sensing the resistive value across terminals 2+ and 2-. The bass modules have a 10k ohm resistor across these terminals. When only one bass module is connected, the PS1 sees the 10k resistance and sets the EQ and output level accordingly. When two bass modules are connected, it sees 5k and sets the EQ and output level accordingly. For the test cable, you will use 18 AWG twisted pair wire to a dual banana jack.
It is also useful to have 3 spare banana jacks, one with a short across it and 2 with a 10k Ohm, 1/4 Watt resistor each to simulate a bass module connected to the terminals. The Amp 1 OUT and Amp 2 OUT jacks do not sense this load.

4. Insert Jack Test Cable

This cable is used to test the channel 1 and 2 insert jacks on the PS1 Power Stand. When you plug it into the channel 1 or channel 2 insert jack, you will be able to separate the sections of the electronics. Refer to the PS1 Power Stand block diagram on page 3. The RETURN dual banana jack will give you the output of the circuitry up to the output of the 2 channel digital volume control. The SEND dual banana jack will allow you to input a signal to test the circuitry after the insert jack, which is the input to the A/D converter and DSP.
Parts needed:
1 - Tip/Ring/Sleeve (stereo) 1/4” phono jack 2 - Dual banana jacks Shielded stereo cable, 6 feet
For each of the shielded stereo pairs of wires, connect the dual banana jack’s positive (+) connection to the center conductor. Connect the dual banana jack’s negative (-) connection to the shield wires. Use an Ohmmeter to determine which of the center conductors is connected to the ring of the 1/4 inch TRS phono jack. Using a permanent black magic marker, label this dual banana connector SEND. Determine which of the center conductors is connected to the tip of the 1/4 inch TRS phono jack. Label this dual banana connector RETURN. The sleeve portion of the jack is the common ground where the shields are connected.
