B. Electrical System
1. Outline
The scanner is not equipped with CPU. The device driver installed in the host computer
includes a control program, which functions as CPU. Host computer sends a command to the
ASIC via the USB controller, the ASIC controls the whole electrical circuits and image
processing of the scanner. The image signals read by the CCD are converted into digital data
by analog IC. The digital data is then processed by the ASIC and output to the host computer
via USB interface.

CHAPTER 2
II. OPTICAL SYSTEM
A. Outline
The optical system consists of the scanning lamp, lens and mirrors. When scanning a
reflective document, the scanning lamp in the scanning unit exposes the document and
focuses the reflected light from the document on the light-sensitive device CCD (charge-coupled
device) via the lens and mirrors.
When scanning a film, FAU lamp in the Film Adapter Unit transmits the film and focuses the
transmitted light on the CCD.
When using FARE function, infrared LED transmits a film after FAU lamp does, and FARE
unit operates to scan the film.

CHAPTER 2
B. Lamp Lighting Circuit
1. Scanning Lamp Lighting Circuit
When the scanner is powered on, or the host computer sends a scan command, ASIC turns
the scanning lamp lighting signal (LAMP) ON to light the scanning lamp.
The reflected light from the document is focused on the light-sensitive device CCD (chargecoupled device) via the five mirrors, lens and FARE unit.
The scanner is provided with a lamp OFF function for energy saving. A built-in timer to be
set by the device driver is counted during lamp ON and turns the scanning lamp OFF when no
scan command is sent for a certain period.

CHAPTER 2
2. FAU Lamp Lighting Circuit
When the host computer sends a film scan command, ASIC turns the scanning lamp lighting
signal (LAMP) OFF then turns FAU lamp lighting signal (XPA) ON to light the FAU lamp.
The FAU lamp light is converted into a flat light source by a light guide plate, then diffused via
1st diffusive film, brightness enhancement film and 2nd diffusive film. As a result, exposed
light from a transparent plate has equal light intensity which transmits a film and focuses on
the CCD in the scanning unit.
The FAU lamp also has a lamp OFF function for energy saving as in the case of the scanning
lamp.
3. Infrared LED Lighting Circuit
When the host computer sends a command to light an infrared LED, ASIC turns IRLED signal
ON to light the infrared LED.
The infrared LED light is converted into a flat light source by a light guide plate as in the case
of the FAU lamp, which transmits a film via 1st diffusive film, brightness enhancement film,
2nd diffusive film and transparent plate.
