SAFETY CHECK-OUT

After correcting the original problem, perform the following

safety check before return the product to the customer.

1. Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly

soldered connections. Check the entire board surface

for solder splasher and bridges.

2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are

“pinched” or contact high-wattage resistors.

3. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly

transistors, that were installed during a previous repair.

Point them out to the customer and recommend their

replacement.

4. Look for parts which, though functioning, show obvious

signs of deterioration. Point them out to the customer

and recommend their replacement.

5. Check the B + voltage to see it is at the values

specified.

6. Make leakage - current measurements to determine

that exposed parts are acceptably insulated from the

supply circuit before returning the product to the

customer.

RoHS lead-free compliance

Because this product is RoHS lead-free compliant, use the designated after-sales parts and the designated lead-free solder when performing repairs.

With the exception of parts and materials expressly excluded from the RoHS directive (*1), all the internal connections and component parts and materials used in this product are lead-free compliant (*2) under the European RoHS directive.

*1: Excluded items (list of the main lead-related items)

• Lead included in glass used in fluorescent tubes, electronic components and cathode-ray tubes

• Lead in high-melting-point solder (i.e. tin-lead solder alloys that contain 85% lead or more)

• Lead in ceramic electronic parts (piezo-electronic devices)

• Mercury contained in fluorescent tubes is also excluded.

*2: Definition of lead-free

A lead content ratio of 0.1 wt% or less in the applicable locations (solder, terminals, electronic components, etc.)

<Reference> RoHS: The name of a directive issued by the European Parliament aimed at restricting the use of

certain designated hazardous substances included in electrical and electronic equipment.

Designated substances (6): Lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) and

polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE)

<Lead-free soldering>

When carrying out repairs, use a designated lead-free solder, bearing in mind the differing work practices for conventional solder (eutectic) and lead-free solder.



 Differences in the soldering work for lead-free and eutectic solder



When the soldering work practices for eutectic solder and lead-free solder are compared, the main differences are as shown below. In particular, when lead-free solder is used, the solder tends to be less workable than when eutectic solder is used. Accordingly, the soldering techniques used must take that into account.

Difference

The solder starts melting later.

Poor wetting

Solder feed rate is difficult to control.

Wetting the insides of through holes is especially

difficult.

During repairs (or modifications) removing solder from inside through holes is difficult.

There is serious carbonization of the soldering iron.

The surface is not glossy.

The initial melting point of lead-free solder is high, so you have to get used to it. Move the tip of the soldering iron around to heat the entire connection to the melting temperature and assist wetting. Use the solder (wire) diameter and soldering iron that are best suited to connection being soldered. First apply solder to the area immediately around the through hold and then feed the solder into the hole. Use a suitable wicking wire (with a suitable method and heating) and a suction tool. Either put solder onto the soldering iron tip after completing the work, or turn the iron off frequently. Learn to recognize the appearance of the surface.

Countermeasure

FinePix Z3 Service Manual



 Setting temperature during lead-free soldering



• Lead-free solder melting temperature The melting point of eutectic (Sn-Pb) solder is 183°C, while the melting point of lead-free solder (Sn-Ag-Cu) is 30°C higher at 220°C.

• Soldering iron tip temperature The temperature setting for the soldering iron used should be such that the tip of the soldering iron is at the correct bonding temperature for the connection. This temperature is normally set at around 100°C higher than the melting point of the solder. However, the actual temperature should take into account the shape and size of the soldering iron tip, the heat tolerance of the connection and the workability of that temperature.

• Correct bonding temperature The correct bonding temperature refers not to the temperature of the heat source, but to the bonding temperature that will give the best bond strength.



 Precautions when soldering with lead-free solder



• Soldering iron maintenance Because of the high soldering iron temperature in lead-free soldering, there is rapid carbonization of the flux adhering to the tip of the soldering iron. (1) Always cover the tip of the soldering iron with solder when it is not being used. (2) If the tip is black from carbonization, wipe it gently with a paper towel soaked in alcohol until the solder will wet.

• Uniform heating of the board and components To ensure that the lead-free solder wets the entire surface of the pattern and the lands despite its poor wetting characteristics, you must move the tip of the soldering iron over a wide area to raise the temperature of the entire connection.



 Soldering iron



A soldering iron with a temperature control is best.

According to the CIPA (Camera & Imaging Products Association) standard procedure for

measuring digital still camera battery consumption (extract):

When using a battery, use the battery supplied with the camera. The storage media should

be xD-Picture Card.

Pictures should be taken at a temperature of +23°C (+73°F), with the LCD monitor turned

on, the optical zoom moved from full wide-angle to full telephoto (or vice-versa) and back

again to its original position every 30 seconds, the flash used at full power every second

shot and the camera turned off and then on again once every 10 shots.

• Note: Because the number of available shots varies depending on the level of charge in

the battery, the figures shown here for the number of available shots using the

battery is not guaranteed.

The number of available shots will also decline at low temperatures.

1. General

1-2. Explanation of Terms

EV: A number denotes Exposure Value. The EV is determined by the brightness of the subject

and sensitivity (speed) of the film or CCD. The number is larger for bright subjects and

smaller for dark subjects. As the brightness of the subject changes, a digital camera

maintains the amount of light hitting the CCD at a constant level by adjusting the aperture

and shutter speed.

When the amount of light striking the CCD doubles, the EV increases by 1. Likewise, when

the light is halved, the EV decreases by 1.

Frame rate (fps): The frame rate refers to the number of images (frames) that are photographed or played

back per second. For example, when 10 frames are continuously photographed in a 1-

second interval, the frame rate is expressed as 10 fps.

For reference, TV images are displayed at 30 fps (NTSC).

JPEG: Joint Photographic Experts Group

A file format used for compressing and saving color images. The higher the compression

rate, the greater the loss of quality in the decompressed (restored) image.

Motion JPEG: A type of AVI (Audio Video Interleave) file format that handles images and sound as a

single file. Images in the file are recorded in JPEG format. Motion JPEG can be played

back by QuickTime 3.0 or later.

Smear: A phenomenon specific to CCDs whereby white streaks appear on the image when there

is a very strong light source, such as the sun or reflected sunlight, in the photography

screen.

WAVE A standard format used on Windows systems for saving audio data. WAVE files have the

“.WAV” file extension and the data can be saved in either compressed or uncompressed

format. Uncompressed recording is used on this camera.

WAVE files can be played back on a personal computer using the following software:

Windows: MediaPlayer

Macintosh: QuickTime Player

* QuickTime 3.0 or later

White Balance: Whatever the kind of the light, the human eye adapts to it so that a white object still looks

white. On the other hand, devices such as digital cameras see a white subject as white by

first adjusting the color balance to suit the color of the ambient light around the subject.

This adjustment is called matching the white balance.

Exif Print: Exif Print Format is a newly revised digital camera file format that contains a variety of

shooting information for optimal printing.

3-3-1. Technical Overview

The powerful double noise reduction of the improved Real Photo Processor II lets you take full advantage of the high sensitivity of the FinePix Z3. Even compared with other high sensitivity cameras, the noise levels are clearly lower even at the highest setting of ISO 1600. Equipped with the new Intelligent Flash feature, FinePix Z3 can recognize scene conditions and automatically set the ideal balance of flash output and sensitivity. Under low lighting or strong backlighting, it is sometimes hard to decide whether to use flash or not. This handy mode lets you take the same scene with and without flash with just one press of the shutter: one photo with Intelligent Flash and one shot with high sensitivity and only available natural light.

CCD signal processing/Camera circuit section

 Analog signals output from the 1/2.5 type Super-CCD Honeycom V HR (IC751), with an effective pixel count of 5.1 mega-

pixels, undergo false color compensation processing, adaptive interpolation processing, amplification (AGC) and signal mixing inside the CCD signal processing IC “BCS_MCM (IC102)” before being converted to 14-bit digital signals (A/D) and sent to the signal processing LSI “NCS_L (IC201)”.

 The CCD drive circuit, H drive, and V drive are installed in [BCS_MCM (IC102)].

Motor Circuit Section

 The signal processing LSI “NCS_L (IC201)” that has received various operating switch commands manages the motor

drive IC (IC151, IC152) and controls the AF, SHUTTER, ZOOM and IRIS motors.

Imaging and Signal Processing Section

 Input data from the CCD

14-bit digital image data (corresponding to 1H) that has been output from the imaging section (CCD/Camera Block) is sent to the signal processing LSI “NCS_L (IC201)”, converted to 32-bit (16-bit x 2) data by the [internal buffer] inside this LSI, and the image data for one frame (2592 x 1944 pix) is stored temporarily in [SD-RAM]. It is also integrated in the [AUTO operation section] using the 32-bit the signal processing LSI “NCS_L (IC201)” image data and sent to the BCS_MCM (IC102) to obtain the appropriate AE/AF/AWB.

 Record processing to xD Card

Image data stored in SD-DRAM is sent one frame at a time to the internal [signal processing section] in the signal processing LSI “NCS_L (IC201)”. In a process called unpacking, “32-bit to 12-bit conversion” and “pre-processing including digital clamp, white balance and noise reduction processing, linear matrix processing, gamma correction and R/ G/B 14-bit to R/G/B 8-bit conversion” to “8-bit digital R/G/B signals to Y:Cb:Cr = 4:2:2 YC processing” are implemented in this [signal processing section] and 8-bit Y/Cb/Cr image data are sent to the [internal buffer]. The “rearrangement of data in a format in which 8-bit Y/Cb/Cr signals are easily compressed” is done in the [internal buffer] and after passing through the [JPEG operation block] to the [media controller], they are recorded on the xD card.

 Reproduction of images from xD card

Compressed image data from the xD card is sent as 8-bit image data to the signal processing LSI “NCS_L (IC201)” then it is sent to the [media control section], the [DMA unit] and the SD-DRAM and then it is sent to the [media controller], to the [JPEG operation section] and to the [signal processing section]. In the [signal processing section], 8-bit Y/Cb/Cr signals are converted to 8-bit R/G/B signals and at the same time, lettering display signals are weighted and passed through the [LCD controller to the LCD unit and displayed.

 Image capture system adjustment data are stored in the Flash ROM.

LCD Unit

 Digital signals sent from the signal processing LSI “NCS_L (IC201)” are sent directly to the LCD.
