ence. In the unlikely event the output waveform differs from that of the input by 0.05% or more, they ﬂ ash brightly to indi- cate distortion. As sensitive distortion indicators they provide proof of performance. Note: It is normal for the Channel 2 IOC indicator to remain on in Parallel-Mono mode.

ODEP: Each channel has a multifunction LED (light emitting diode) indicator that shows the channel’s energy reserve status. Normally, the LEDs are brightly lit to show that reserve energy is available. An indicator will dim proportionally as the energy reserve for its channel decreases. In the rare event that a channel has no reserve energy, the indicator turns off and ODEP proportionally limits the channel’s output drive level so the ampliﬁ er can continue safe operation even when conditions are severe.

2.6 Protection

Macro-Tech ampliﬁ ers are protected against shorted, open or mismatched loads; overloaded power supplies; excessive temperature, chain destruction phenomena, input overload damage and high-frequency blow-ups. They also protect loudspeakers from input/output DC and turn-on/turn-off transients.

If unreasonable operating conditions occur, the patented ODEP circuitry proportionally limits the drive level to protect the output devices, particularly in the case of elevated temperature. Transformer overheating results in a temporary shutdown of the offending channel. When it has cooled to a safe temperature, the transformer automatically resets itself. Controlled slew rate voltage ampliﬁ ers protect against RF burnouts, and input overload protection is provided by current-limiting resistance at the input.

Turn On: The four second turn-on delay prevents dangerous turn-on transients. Turn-on occurs at zero crossing of the AC waveform, so power sequencers are rarely needed with multiple units. Note: The turn-on delay time may be changed. Contact Crown’s Technical Support Group for details.

Circuit Breaker: Circuit breaker current ratings vary based on the AC operating power.

3 Theory of Operation

3.1 Overview

It should be noted that over time Crown makes improvements and changes to their products for various reasons. This manual is up to date as of the time of writing. For additional information regarding these ampliﬁ ers, refer to the applicable Technical Notes provided by Crown for this product.

front panel and are of the rotary type. Front panel indicators let the user know the status of the low voltage power supply (enable), an ODEP indicator for each channel which shows the reserve energy status, and a SPI/IOC indicator for each channel which indicates signal output and distortion. In general, the packaging of this model is designed for maximum watt/price/weight/size value with user friendly features.

For additional details refer to the speciﬁ cation section, or to the applicable Owner’s Manual.

This section of the manual explains the general operation of a Macro-Tech 3600VZ power ampliﬁ er. Topics covered include Front End, Grounded Bridge, ODEP, and VZ supply. Due to variations in design from vintage to vintage (and similarities with other Crown products) the theory of operation remains simpliﬁ ed.

3.2 Features

Macro Tech amplifiers utilize numerous Crown innovations including grounded bridge and ODEP technologies. Cooling techniques make use of the what is essentially air conditioner technology. Air ﬂ ows bottom to top, and front to side. Air ﬂ ows a short distance across a wide heatsink. This type of air flow provides significantly better cooling than the “wind tunnel” technology used by many other manufacturers. Output transistors are of the metal can type rather than plastic case. This allows for a signiﬁ cantly higher thermal margin for the given voltage and current ratings. All devices used are tested and graded to ensure maximum reliability. Another electronic technique used is negative feedback. Almost all power ampliﬁ ers utilize negative feedback to control gain and provide stability, but Crown uses multiple nested feedback loops for maximum stability and greatly improved damping. Most Crown ampliﬁ ers have damping in excess of 1000 in the bass frequency range. This feedback, along with our compensation and ultra-low distortion output topology, makes Crown ampliﬁ ers superior.

Features speciﬁ c to the Macro Tech Series’ include two seperate power transformers (one for each channel), a full time full speed fan which also serves as the low voltage transformer, slew rate limiting, and audio muting for delay or protective action. This ampliﬁ er can operate in either a Bridged or Parallel Mono mode as well as dual (stereo). A sensitivity switch allows selection of input voltage required for rated output. Level controls are mounted on the

3.3 Front End Operation

The front end is comprised of three stages: Balanced Gain Stage (BGS), Variable Gain Stage (VGS), and the Error Amp. Figure 3.1 shows a simpliﬁ ed diagram of a typical front end with voltage amplification stages.

3.3.1 Balanced Gain Stage (BGS)

Input to the ampliﬁ er is balanced. The shield may be isolated from chassis ground by an RC network to interrupt ground loops via the Ground Lift Switch. The non-inverting (hot) side of the balanced input is fed to the non-inverting input of the ﬁ rst op-amp stage. The inverting (negative) side of the balanced input is fed to the inverting input of the ﬁ rst op-amp stage. A potentiometer is provided for common mode rejection adjustment. Electrically, the BGS is at unity gain. (From an audio perspective, however, this stage actually provides +6dB gain if a fully balanced signal is placed on its input.) The BGS is a non-inverting stage. It’s output is delivered to the Variable Gain Stage.

3.3.2 Variable Gain Stage (VGS)

From the output of the BGS, the signal goes to the VGS where gain is determined by the position of the Sensitivity Switch, and level is determined by the level control. VGS is an inverting stage with the input being fed to its op-amp stage. Because gain after this stage is ﬁ xed at 26dB (factor of 20), greater ampliﬁ er sensitivity is achieved by controlling the ratio of feedback to input resistance. The Sensitivity Switch sets the input impedance to this stage and varies the gain such that the overall ampliﬁ er gain is 26 dB, or is adjusted appropriately for 0.775V or 1.4V input to attain rated output.

3.3.3 Error Amp

The inverted output from the VGS is fed to the noninverting input of the Error Amp op-amp stage through

an AC coupling capacitor and input resistor. Ampliﬁ er output is fed back via the negative feedback (NFb) loop resistor. The ratio of feedback resistor to input resistor ﬁ xes gain from the Error Amp input to the output of the amplifier at 26 dB. Diodes prevent overdriving the Error Amp. Because the Error Amp ampliﬁ es the difference between input and output signals, any difference in the two waveforms will produce a near open loop gain condition which in turn results in high peak output voltage. The output of the Error Amp, called the Error Signal (ES) drives the Voltage Translators.

3.4 Voltage Ampliﬁ cation

The Voltage Translator stage separates the output of the Error Amp into balanced positive and negative drive voltages for the Last Voltage Ampliﬁ ers (LVAs), translating the signal from ground referenced ±15V to ±Vcc reference. LVAs provide the main voltage ampliﬁ cation and drive the High Side output stages. Gain from Voltage Translator input to ampliﬁ er output is a factor of 25.2.

3.4.1 Voltage Translators

A voltage divider network splits the Error Signal (ES) into positive and negative drive signals for the balanced voltage translator stage. These offset reference voltages drive the input to the Voltage Translator transistors. A nested NFb loop from the output of the ampliﬁ er mixes with the inverted signal riding on the offset references. This negative feedback ﬁ xes gain at the offset reference points (and the output of the Error Amp) at a factor of -25.2 with respect to the ampliﬁ er output. The Voltage Translators are arranged in a common base conﬁ guration for non-inverting voltage gain with equal gain. They shift the audio from the ±15V reference to VCC reference. Their outputs drive their respective LVA.

Also tied into the Voltage Translator inputs are ODEP limiting transistors and control/protection transistors. The ODEP transistors steal drive as dictated by the ODEP circuitry (discussed later). The control/protection transistors act as switches to totally shunt audio to ground during the turn-on delay, or during a DC/LF or Fault protective action.

3.4.2 Last Voltage Ampliﬁ ers (LVAs)

The Voltage Translator stage channels the signal to the Last Voltage Ampliﬁ ers (LVA’s) in a balanced conﬁ guration. The +LVA and -LVA, with their push- pull effect through the Bias Servo, drive the fully complementary output stage. The LVAs are conﬁ gured as common emitter amplifiers. This configuration provides sufﬁ cient voltage gain and inverts the audio. The polarity inversion is necessary to avoid an overall polarity inversion from input jack to output jack, and it allows the NFb loop to control Error Amp gain by feeding back to its non-inverting input (with its polarity opposite to the output of the VGS). With the added voltage swing provided by the LVAs, the signal then gains current ampliﬁ cation through the Darlington emitter-follower output stage.

3.5 Grounded Bridge Topology

Figure 3.2 is a simpliﬁ ed example of the grounded bridge output topology. It consists of four quadrants of three deep Darlington (composite) emitter-follower stages per channel: one NPN and one PNP on the High Side of the bridge (driving the load), and one NPN and one PNP on the Low Side of the bridge (controlling the ground reference for the rails). The output stages are biased to operate class AB+B for ultra low distortion in the signal zero-crossing region and high efﬁ ciency.

3.5.1 High Side (HS)

The High Side (HS) of the bridge operates much like a conventional bipolar push-pull output conﬁ guration. As the input drive voltage becomes more positive, the HS NPN conducts and delivers positive voltage to the load. Eventually the NPN devices reach full conduction and +Vcc is across the load. At this time the HS PNP is biased off. When the drive signal is negative going, the HS PNP conducts to deliver -Vcc to the load and the HS NPN stage is off.

The output of the +LVA drives the base of predriver device. Together, the predriver and driver form the ﬁ rst two parts of the three-deep Darlington and are biased class AB. They provide output drive through the bias resistor, bypassing the output devices, at levels below about 100mW. An RLC network between the predriver and driver provide phase shift compensation and limit driver base current to safe levels. Output devices are biased class B, just below cutoff. At about 100mW output they switch on to conduct high current to the load. Together with predriver and driver, the output device provide an overall class AB+B output.

The negative half of the HS is almost identical to the positive half, except that the devices are PNP. One difference is that the PNP bias resistor is slightly greater in value so that PNP output devices run closer to the cutoff level under static (no signal) conditions. This is because PNP devices require greater drive current.

HS bias is regulated by Q18, the Bias Servo. Q18 is a Vbe multiplier which maintains approximately

3.3V Vce under static conditions. The positive and negative halves of the HS output are in parallel with this 3.3V. With a full base-emitter on voltage drop across predrivers and drivers, the balance of voltage results in approximately .35V drop across the bias resistors in the positive half, and about .5V across the bias resistor in the negative half. Q18 conduction (and thus bias) is adjustable.

A diode string prevents excessive charge build up within the high conduction output devices when off. Flyback diodes shunt back-EMF pulses from reactive loads to the power supply to protect output devices from dangerous reverse voltage levels. An output terminating circuit blocks RF on output lines from entering the ampliﬁ er through its output connectors.

3.5.2 Low Side (LS)

The Low Side (LS) operates quite differently. The power supply bridge rectiﬁ er is not ground referenced, nor is the secondary of the main transformer. In other words, the high voltage power supply floats with respect to ground, but ±Vcc remain constant with respect to each other. This allows the power supply to deliver +Vcc and -Vcc from the same bridge rectiﬁ er and ﬁ lter as a total difference in potential, regardless of their voltages with respect to ground. The LS uses inverted feedback from the HS output to control the ground reference for the rails (±Vcc). Both LS quadrants are arranged in a three-deep Darlington

and are biased AB+B in the same manner as the HS.

When the ampliﬁ er output swings positive, the audio is fed to an op-amp stage where it is inverted. This inverted signal is delivered directly to the bases of the positive (NPN) and negative (PNP) LS predrivers. The negative drive forces the LS PNP devices on (NPN off). As the PNP devices conduct, Vce of the PNP Darlington drops. With LS device emitters tied to ground, -Vcc is pulled toward ground reference. Since the power supply is not ground referenced (and the total voltage from +Vcc to -Vcc is constant) +Vcc is forced higher above ground potential. This continues until, at the positive ampliﬁ er output peak,

-Vcc = 0V and +Vcc equals the total power supply potential with a positive polarity. If, for example, the power supply produced a total of 70V from rail to rail (±35VDC measured from ground with no signal), the amplifier output would reach a positive peak of +70V.

Conversely, during a negative swing of the HS output where HS PNP devices conduct, the op-amp would output a positive voltage forcing LS NPN devices to conduct. This would result in +Vcc swinging toward ground potential and -Vcc further from ground potential. At the negative ampliﬁ er output peak, +Vcc = 0V and -Vcc equals the total power supply potential with a negative polarity. Using the same example as above, a 70V supply would allow a negative output peak of -70V. In summary, a power supply which produces a total of 70VDC rail to rail (or ±35VDC statically) is capable of producing 140V peak-topeak at the amplifier output when the grounded bridge topology is used. The voltage used in this example are relatively close to the voltages of the PB-1/460CSL.

3.6 Output Device Emulation Protection (ODEP)

To further protect the output stages, a specially developed ODEP circuit is used. It produces a complex analog output signal. This signal is proportional to the always changing safe-operatingarea margin of the output transistors. The ODEP signal controls the Voltage Translator stage by removing drive that may exceed the safe-operating-area of the output stage.

ODEP senses output current by measuring the voltage dropped across LS emitter resistors. LS NPN current (negative amplifier output) and +Vcc are sensed, then multiplied to obtain a signal proportional to output power. Positive and negative ODEP voltages are adjustable via two potentiometers. Across ±ODEP are a PTC and a thermal sense (current source). The PTC is essentially a cutoff switch that causes hard ODEP limiting if heatsink temperature exceeds a safe maximum, regardless of signal level. The thermal sense causes the differential between +ODEP and –ODEP to decrease as heatsink temperature increases. An increase in positive output signal output into a load will result in –ODEP voltage dropping; an increase in negative output voltage and current will cause +ODEP voltage to drop. A complex RC network between the ±ODEP circuitry is used to simulate the thermal barriers between the interior of the output device die (immeasurable by normal means) and the time delay from heat generation at the die until heat dissipates to the thermal sensor. The combined effects of thermal history and instantaneous dynamic power level result in an accurate simulation of the actual thermal condition of the output transistors.

The total effect is to deliver a peak to peak voltage to the speaker load which is twice the voltage produced by the power supply. Beneﬁ ts include full utilization of the power supply (it conducts current during both halves of the output signal; conventional designs require two power supplies per channel, one positive and one negative), and never exposing any output device to more than half of the peak to peak output voltage (which does occur in conventional designs).

Low side bias is established by a diode string which also shunts built up charges on the output devices. Bias is adjustable via potentiometer. Flyback diodes perform the same function as the HS ﬂ ybacks. The output of the LS is tied directly to chassis ground via ground strap.

3.7 VZ Power

VZ means Variable Impedance and is the name of Crown’s patented articulated power supply technol- ogy. It enables Crown to pack tremendous power into just 3½ inches of vertical rack space.

3.7.1 Background

A power supply must be large enough to handle the maximum voltage and current necessary for the ampliﬁ er to drive its maximum rated power into a specified load. In the process of fulfilling this requirement conventional power supply designs produce excessive heat, are heavy, and take up precious real estate. It’s no secret that heat is one of a power ampliﬁ ers worst enemies.

130366-1 Rev. A

MA-3600VZ Service Manual

According to Ohm’s Law, the bigger the power supply, the more heat the power transistors must dissipate. Also, the lower the resistance of the power transistors, the more voltage you can deliver to the load. But at the same time that you lower the resistance of the transistors, you increase the current passing through them, and again increase the amount of heat they must dissipate.

3.7.2 The VZ supply

An articulated power supply, like VZ, can circumvent much of this problem by reducing the voltage applied to the transistors when less voltage is required. Reducing the voltage reduces the heat. Since the amplifier runs cooler, you can safely pack more power into the chassis.

The VZ supply is divided into segments to better match the voltage and current requirements of the power transistors. Remember that audio signals like music are complex waveforms.

For music the average level is always much less than the peak level. This means a power supply does not need to produce full voltage all the time.

The VZ supply is divided into two parts. When the voltage requirements are not high, it operates in a parallel mode to produce less voltage and more current (Figure 3.3). In this mode the power transistors stay cooler and are not forced to needlessly dissipate heat. This is the normal operating mode of the VZ power supply.

When the voltage requirements are high the VZ supply switches to a series mode to produce the higher voltage and less current (Figure 3.4). The ampliﬁ ed output signal never misses a beat and gets full voltage when it needs it—not when it doesn’t need it.

Sensing circuitry watches the voltage of the signal to determine when to switch modes. The switching circuitry is designed to prevent audible switching distortion to yield the highest dynamic transfer function—you hear only the music and not the ampliﬁ er. You get not only the maximum power with the maximum safety, you also get the best power matching to your load.

3.7.3 VZ Switch Control

The two halves of U03 form identical comparators that monitor the available voltage of DC supply V2 and compare it to the output voltage of the ampliﬁ er. When a positive going output voltage exceeds a predetermined ratio of the available supply voltage, U03 pin 1 produces a low voltage triggering U04. When triggered, the “Q” output of U04 changes from low to high driving the gates of FET’s Q00, Q01, and Q02. The other half of U03 (pin 7) reacts to negative going output voltage. Both halves of U03 receive V2 and ampliﬁ er output voltage differentially.

The time constant set by C18 and R16 on the input of U04 sets the maximum switch frequency of the supply. This time constant forces the supply to stay in the series mode regardless of ampliﬁ er condition for 200 ms. The reset pin of U04 (pin 4) forces the output of U04 low when FET damage conditions exist.

C16 and C17 provide hysteresis around the comparators of U03 to insure stable operation. VZ Protection Circuit Protecting high current transistors can be troublesome in circuits that do not provide convenient current sample points. FETs Q00-Q02 fall into this class of problems, but protection has been designed based on the following two conditions being present at the same time:

Theory of Operation 3-5

MA-3600VZ Service Manual

130366-1 Rev. A

• Higher than normal on-state drain to source voltage

• Gate drive present.

When both of these conditions exist, a reasonable assumption can be made that the FETs are operating in an area that if sustained will cause damage to the FETs. These two conditions are detected by U05 pins 5 and 7.

U05 detects gate drive to the FETs at pin 7. Pin 6 is a reference input with the reference voltage set by R22 in series with R19.

FETs at pin 5. R17 in series with R18 forms a voltage divider to pin 5 of U05. The reference is set by a voltage divider formed by R29, R20, and R22.

When both conditions are detected the outputs of U05 (pins 1 and 2) allow C20 to start charging through R23. After 20µS, C20 will be sufﬁ ciently charged to turn on the section of U05 whose output is pin 14, discharging C21. As C21 discharges, it turns on Q03 which pulls the non-inverting input low (pin 9). U05 pin 13 drives the reset pin of U04 low which removes gate drive from the FETs. This hysteresis makes the circuit auto-resetting. Every 10ms (set by C21 and R26) it will make another 20µs try at driving the FETs. R25 prevents Q03 from pulling the input of U05 below its negative supply.

4.1 Cautions and Warnings

DANGER: The outputs of this ampliﬁ er can produce LETHAL energy levels! Be very careful when making connections. Do not attempt to change output wiring until the ampliﬁ er has been off at least 10 seconds. WARNING: This unit is capable of producing high sound pressure levels. Continued exposure to high sound pressure levels can cause permanent hearing impairment or loss. User caution is advised and ear protection is recommended when using at high levels. WARNING: Do not expose this unit to rain or moisture. WARNING: Only properly trained and qualified technicians should attempt to service this unit. There are no user serviceable parts inside. WARNING: When performing service checks with the power off, discharge the main power supply ﬁ lter capacitors fully before taking any measurements or touching any electrical components. A 300-ohm 10-W resistor is recommended for this. Hold the resistor with pliers, as the resistor may become extremely hot. WARNING: Under load, with a sine wave signal at full power into both channels, the ampliﬁ er may draw in excess of 30 amperes from the AC service mains. WARNING: Do not change the position of the Mode Switch when the ampliﬁ er is turned on. If the position of this switch is changed while the amplifier is powered, transients may damage your speakers. WARNING: Heatsinks are not at ground potential. Simultaneously touching either heatsink and ground, or both heatsinks will cause electrical shock. CAUTION: Eye protection should be worn at all times when protective covers are removed and the ampliﬁ er is plugged in. CAUTION: Disconnect the power cord before installing or removing any cover or panel.

4.2 General Information

The following test procedures are to be used to verify operation of this ampliﬁ er. DO NOT connect a load or inject a signal unless directed to do so by the procedure. These tests, though meant for veriﬁ cation and alignment of the amplifier, may also be very helpful in troubleshooting. For best results, tests should be performed in order.
