2.2. CPU BOARD
Overview
The CPU board is fitted to PILOT anaesthesia 2 version, around a 80C32 microprocessor used in
open mode. It concentrates all the peripheral devices directly connected to the 80C32 bus. It is
connected to the power supply board by a 40 contacts ribbon cable and to the display board by
fixed connectors. It forms a single unit, with the display board, which is fixed to the front panel.
The CPU board uses CMOS technology in order to minimize power consum ption.
Current used: 5 Volts 80 mA maximum.
2.2.1. Functional description
The CPU board comprises six functional units:
q Ram rom decoding processor
q Reset WATCH DOG
q Parallel port extensions
display/keyboard interface,
motor interface,
sensor interface.
q SPI BUS
q Asynchronous serial link
q Optical sensor
2.2.1.1. RAM ROM decoding processor
Decoding is carried out by an IC3 80C32 circuit, running at 12 MHz, clocked by Q1. It is used in open
mode, with the EA*/VP line connected to GND.
Address/data de-multiplexing is carried out by a 74HC573 U3.
On this BUS are implemented:
32 Ko static RAMU6
27C010128 Ko (extension to 512 Ko)U4
2.2.1.2. Reset watch-dog
The RESET WATCH-DOG module comprises two TL7705 U10 and U11 circuits.
Operation: the U10 circuit generates RESET signals, active at 1, for the processor and the UART; RST*
active at 0 generates RESET signals for the other peripheral devices.
The signals are activate in two cases:
q when the system is powered up,
q as soon as the WATCH-DOG circuit is triggered. It remains active until the power is turned off.
2.2.1.2.1. Reset at power-up
The TL 7705 circuit guarantees the minimum duration of the reset lines, in the active state, once the +
5V voltage has exceeded the circuit operating threshold (4.75V). It returns to the active state, if the + 5V
voltage drops below the threshold or if the RESTIN* (U11.2) is at 0. The line is driven by the WATCHDOG module.
The duration of the reset, in the active state, at power-up is set by the C10 capacitor 220nF 100 ms.
Page : 16NT 0818 Rev.A1
Page 21
2.2.1.2.2. Watch-dog
The WATCHDOG circuit comprises the following elements: U10, U11, C12, D2, D1, R4, C11.
When powered up the capacitor C12 is charged by the U10 circuit, via diode D1.
The charge is maintained at a threshold of over 1.5 V during operation.
The software writes, every 1 ms.This writing generates a 5V/1µs impulse on the U7.10 output, which re-
charges the capacitor C12 via a high pass peak detector circuit made up C8, D3, D2. The C12 capacitor
discharges in resistor R4.
When the software stops, the capacitor C12 completely discharges. The U11 RESTIN* line falls to 0 and
the RESET signals are activated, stopping all syringe-pump control operations in the inactive state.
Fault signals, the blinking FAIL diode and the continuous BUZZER are stuck in an active state.
WATCH-DOG trigger time is less than 400 ms.
2.2.1.3. Keyboard/display interfacing
2.2.1.3.1. Display registers
The display system is made of LED’s and of a 2 lines of 20 characters LCD graphic screen.The U7 circuit allows to address the matrix of the LED’s, the U8 circuit allows the writing and reading in the display
controller.
The LED’s matrix are DIG0 to DIG7 and SEG0 to SEG7.
The FAIL LED shows the device is failed, the command is inverted to be active by default at RESET. It
is active at 1 on the display board. The FAIL diode is out of the matrix to be able to light on when the
micropossor does not work.
2.2.1.3.2. Buzzer
The BUZZER command is inverted and controls the transistor, T3, which is mounted as a common
transmitter. Working in parallel, the transistor collector drives the BUZZER on the display board and the
nurse call relay on the motor control power supply board. After starting the pump, the BUZZER is activated for added safety.
BUZZ signal: J5 pin 6 and J3 pin 24 50 mA 6.75 Volts maximum.
2.2.1.3.3. Keyboard register
The keyboard is based on a 6 x 3 matrix, with 2 separate keys - TON and TOFF - with 1 common
point (GND). They turn power ON and OFF respectively and are connected to the display board. TON
and TOFF signals only transits via the CPU board.
The columns of the keyboard are driven by the same signals as the columns in the display matrix, thus
facilitating simultaneous keyboard and display monitoring. Register U15 reads the status of the three
keyboard lines, LIG1, LIG2 and LIG3 in order to check whether a key has been activated.
2.2.1.3.4. Motor control register
The U12 motor control register generates 4 motor phase signals, A,B,C and D, the I current control signal, the motor rotation opto control CDOPT1 signal and the BOOST BOOSTER control signal.
2.2.1.3.5. Sensor status register
The U16 sensor status register reads the microswitch digital sensors and the syringe pump opto switch.

2.2.1.5.1. RS232 serial link
The RS232 serial link is implemented using the U8 SCC2691 circuit, which controls asynchronous communication, and RS232 interface circuit which is located on the motor power supply board.
The circuit is clocked by quartz Q2 at 3.6864 MHz. It includes a programmable baud rate generator. It
generates interrupts on the ITRS232 line connected to the processor at INTO.
The SCC2691 is on the microprocessor bus. It drives the RXD1 receive data signals on J3 (pin 34) and
TXD1 transmit data signals on J3 (pin 35).
The RS232 option is reserved for dialogue with the host computer responsible for monitoring or controlling the system.
2.2.1.5.2. TTL serial link
The TTL serial link is driven by the serial link controller inside the microprocessor. It uses one of the
internal timers to generate its baud rate, from the basis of the processor 12 MHz clock. The serial link
drives the TXD2 transmit data and RXD2 receive data lines. The input and output lines are buffered by
the U9 74HC14 buffer trigger inverter circuit.
The lines are available on J3.
TX2J3pin 33
RX2J3pin 34
This serial communication line is reserved for PILOT anaesthesia 2 software configuration and, when
appropriate, for connecting an external MASTER module.
2.2.1.6. Opto switch sensors
PILOT anaesthesia 2 syringe pump opto switch sensors are for piston pressure and syringe body pres-
ence and motor rotation.
The syringe body opto switch interface is located on the CPU board. It is implemented using transistors
T1, T2 and T3. Resistor R9 limits current in the diode to 8 mA.

2.3.1. Overview
The display board is mounted directly beneath the front plate of the syringe pump. It brings together all
the facilities for operator/device dialogue: Keyboard, buzzer and display.
It is connected to the CPU by rigid connectors, forming a sandwich, with the former, held in place by
struts.
The soft keyboard is connected to the display board.
2.3.2. Functional description
The display board comprises four modules:
q The electroluminescent display,
q The keyboard interface,
q The liquid crystal display,
q The buzzer.
2.3.2.1. Electroluminescent display
The electroluminescent display is made of eighteen LED's and five 7 segment display units, with the
decimal point, except two of them which are marked (*) in the table below.
The diodes and display units are driven in a multiplexed, 8 segments x 8 digit matrix. The LED's and
display units are mounted with a common cathode.
The 8 segments are driven by signals SEG0 to SEG7 and the 8 digit by signals DIG0 to DIG7.
The 2 LED’s, "MAIN PRESENCE" and "FAIL" are controlled independently of the matrix.
2.3.2.1.1. LED’s table
The following table lists the various diodes used in different models.
2.3.2.3. LCD display unit
The LCD display unit is "chip on glass" type, the controller is fixed on the glass. It has 2 lines of 20 char-
acters.
The BUS gestion is multiplexed with the command of SEG0 and SEG7.
It has a double powered retrolighting.
The power supply of the LED pair, one by one, allows an optimum light for a minimum consumption.
2.3.2.4. The buzzer
The buzzer is an auto-exit buzzer supplied by VBAT.
It is driven by the BUZZ signal, available on connector J3, pin 6, which is generated by the CPU board.
It is mounted in parallel with the optional nurse call circuit, located on the motor power supply board.

rates, 10 to 30 minutes are sufficient for this stabilization.
2. Start infusion by pressing on the START/CONFIRM key and set off the stop clock at the same time
(if necessary make a note of the stop clock start value).The length of the test is determined by the
time necessary for a 50 ml infusion in the test tube.
3. Calculate the difference between the design value and the real value.
Real flow rate =
50 ml
Time in hours
4. The error percentage is calculated from this difference (Measurement error +/-1%),
Measured value - Design value
X 100 = pourcentage
Ddesigned value
