Safety measures and Attention
4.Safety measures and Attention
4.1. Observation and measures carefully:
When in repair service, should pay attention to these safety measures and the
description
of the service menu.
4.2.Preparation:
The preparation for repair in a defective PDP is necessary, ex:stable working
table, repair tools, measuring equipments, replace parts etc.
4.3.Pay attention to electrical shock:
Because the PDP is using the AC power source, and the power board contents
high voltage, so to preventing the high voltage shock is necessary. Such as,
using an isolated transformer, plastic glove, charged components should be
discharged first. The high voltage is supplied to inferior components, so when
repair the PDP should pay more attentions.
4.4.Using the specified components:
Some components provide fire-resist and endure high-voltage. So when replace
these parts, should use the same characteristic components. So when replace a
component should according to the BOM form for a assigned component.
4.5.Stable the components and recovery the wiring:
Some components are using isolated sleeve or adhesive tape to isolate from the
electric board. Moreover the interior wiring should be arranged again to prevent
the interference from given out heat components and high voltage
components .So after repairing, should recover the same layout of the PDP.
4.6.Integrity of the electric circuit :
Use the specified components to replace the defective parts. Under any
circumstance,do not try to modified the electric circuit .
4.7.Safety check after repairing:
After repairing, should check the screws and the wiring condition. Checking the
quality of repairing components. The insulation test of the metal component,
power cord to make sure the safety of repairing.

Introduction of PDP Circiut board
6.4 Function:
a. The input voltage AC 90 ~ 240 through line filter to the power board , after main
switch is on then power board generate 5 volts to VIF board. The VIF board after
receiving 5 volts then from CN connector send signal(5 volts) to power
board .Power board generates 5 volts to DIF and VIF .When VIF receives the 5
volts ,then generates 5 volts to power board through CN connector(pin1 ,pin6) ,
and it means that DIF has received 5 volts already.
b. When power on(key-pad or receiver),the VIF send VCC_ON signal to power to
start Vcc and Vf voltage through CN connector(pin2).
c. The VIF sends HV_ON signal to power board to start high voltage Vs , Vxg , Vw
through CN connector(pin4).
d. At the same time the signal from VIF to DIF for signal processing , then through X

6.6 Detail Introduction of PDP circuit boards
6.6.1 VIF Board:
a. Summary:
General digital video signals include Vsync、Hsync、R(8Bit)、G(8Bit)、B(8Bit) and Data
Enable (Blank);the VIF of PDP is making for processing these digital signal.
Because PDP belonging a high end product , so its application should include the
functions of Monitor (analog VGA , digital DVI signal input). And for consumer’s
sake , the VIF should have the functions of video , like audio , composite , s-video ,
component signal processing.
Below is the explanation of VIF system:
b. The role of VIF:
UHF/VHF TV
Cable TV
HDTV
VTR
DVD Player
PC
Home Video
Currently the video signal sources are video cassette recorder , DVD player , CATV ,
RF tuner , VGA card(PC). In order that all the video signal sources can be displayed
on PDP , so we need a interface to transfer these signals to a specified signals for
PDP to display , and this is the function of VIF(Video Interface).

c. Basic framework of VIF board
For dealing with the signals of CVBS, S-video and Component, it requires a video
decoder IC. And the output of video decoder will input to a de-interlace chip IC for a
stable image quality. Because the TV system uses interlace scanning, it causes
flickers on the screen . To improve this situation so we use a de-interlace chip IC.
The ADC(Analog to Digital Converter) IC converts the analog RGB signal to digital
RGB signal. The TMDS(Transition Minimized Differential Signaling) decoder IC
transmits digital RGB signal. All the output of ICs’ signal send to scalar IC. The
relationship is shown as below, and make a brief explanation of the system.

c-1. ADC Converter:AD9888
The AD9888 is a complete 8 bit , 205 MSPS monolithic analog interface
optimized for capturing RGB graphics signals. Its 205 MSPS encode rate
capability and full-power analog bandwidth of 500 MHz supports resolutions up
to UXGA(1600 x1200 @ 75 Hz).
c-2 TMDS Receiver: SIL153BCT100
The Sil153BCT100 receiver uses Panel Link Digital technology to support high
resolution displays up to SXGA (25MHz~112MHz). The Sil153B receiver
supports up to true color panels (24 bit/pixel, 16.7M colors) in 1 or 2 pixels/clock
mode. In addition, the receiver data output is time staggered to reduce ground
bounce that affects EMI.
c-3 VIDEO Decoder:SAA7118E
The SAA7118E decoder is a ADC too, but it can deal with the ordinary TV
signals. The SAA7118E can input Composite (fig.A)、S-video (fig.B)、Component
(fig.C) and its outputs are digital Y(Luminance) , C (Chromacity) signals. And
also can adjust brightness, contrast, saturation, hue.
c-4 De-interlace:SIL504CM208
The Sil504 transfer interlacing signals to progressive signals. The advantage of
progressive signals is that the scanning rate doubling to let the screen more
stable and non-flickering. Besides, the sources of input may have 24 0r 30 or 25
frames per sec, so the de-interlaced chip shall tell from the differences and
processing the signals. The basic principle of de-interlaced IC is combined the
odd and even fields to a frame, and the processing needs a memory IC(SDRAM)
to stock these signals for processing . For the improving the quality of image
sake, more and more TVs or DVD players all have the functions of progressive
scanning.

c-5 Image Processor chip:PW171-20U(system on chip) ◎ Scaling function :
The Image scalars provide high quality up and down image scaling. For the
applications of VIF, the input signals could be VGA, SVGA, XGA formats, and its
output fixed at 852 x 480 @60 HZ. For example , SVGA format:800 x 600
@75Hz , first scaling down : Horizontal 800 640、Vertical 600 480 , 75 frames /
sec after frame rate conversion become 60 frames per sec. Then scaling up 640
852 , to accomplish the scaling function.
◎ Micro Processor Function :
This chip includes microprocessor (on-chip 80x86); selectable function and I/O
interface control. With 3 groups of 8-bit programmable I/O, 1 group of RS-232
communication port, IR decoder, timer and a PWM generator
◎ OSD Function:
The on-screen-display (OSD) can be used for startup screens, menus , and scribble
functions.
d. VIF (Video interface) :
d-1. When main switch is ON , the power board generates Vsby 5 volts to VIF
board. The IC of microprocessor become standby status waiting for a
startup signal from key-pad or receiver.
d-2 When a startup signal is detected then microprocessor sending a ON signal
to the power board through CN connector , and the power board begins
generating all voltage to PCB board(Vs, Vxg, Vw, Vf, Vdd, Vcc, 9volts) . At
the same time VIF will generate background light and OSD menu as select.
After searching a input source , then will display on the PDP screen , if there
are audio signals , it will amplify and send to speakers through audio board.
d-3 If there are abnormal signals are detected(such as over voltage , over
current , low voltage ..) , the power board will send abnormal detective
signal to shut down all the system
