LASER BEAM SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT
CAUTION
Invisible laser radiation when the unit is open.
Do not stare into beam.
CAUTION: USE OF ANY CONTROLS, ADJUSTMENT, OR
PROCEDURES OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED HEREIN
MAY RESULT IN HAZARDOUS RADIATION EXPOSURE.
Do not look directly at the laser beam
coming from the pickup or allow it to

strike against your skin.
This compact disc player uses a pickup that emits a laser beam. The laser beam is emitted from the
location shown in the figure. When checking the laser diode, be sure to keep your eyes at least 1 foot away
from the pickup lens when the diode is turned on. Do not look directly at the laser beam.
CAUTION:
Using controls and adjustment, or doing procedures other than those specified herein, may result in
hazardous radiation exposure.

This symbol is intended to alert the user to
the presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the appliance.

expose the unit to rain or moisture.
HANDLING LASER PICKUP
The laser diode in the optical system of this player can be damaged by electrostatic discharge from
your clothes or your body. Proper electrostatic grounding for service personal is required during servicing.
BEFORE REPAIRING THE COMPACT DISC PLAYER
Preparation
Human Body Grounding:
Many of the components used in this compact disc player, including the laser pickup, are sensitive to
electrostatic discharge. Service personal should be grounded with an electrostatic armband (1 Mohm).
Caution:
Static charge on clothing does not escape through a body grounding wrist band.
Be careful not to contact the pickup or electrical components with your clothing.
Workbench and Tool Grounding:
A properly-grounded electroconductive plate (1Mohm) or metal sheet should be fitted to the workbench
surface. Tools and instruments (such as soldering irons and scopes) should be grounded to prevent AC
leakage.
Note: Laser diodes are so susceptible to damage from static electricity that, even if a static discharge does
not ruin a diode, it can shorten its life or cause it to work improperly.

DETECTION
DETECTION
The signals A, B, C and D input from PDIC are composed into the RF signal by the RF
Addition Amp, then output from RFOUT of Pin 5. This Amp is designed so that RFOUT is
about 0.5 Vp-p for normal CD disc (about 0.4 Vp-p for CDR and 0.12 Vp-p for CDRW).
RF signal from Pin 5 is then input to the AGC block through the EQ block (the EQ
characteristic is fixed for single speed operation in this design). It is then gain-controlled
and output to Pin 10 ARF. The AGC block maintains the output level of ARF to about
1.0Vp-p for all types of disc. C38 connected to Pin 9 is for the AGC loop filter.
The RF Detection block detects the amplitude of the RF signal inputted from the EQ block.
Inputted RF signal is detected after passing through a high-pass filter. Detection level is
changed in accrodance with the voltage of GCTRL Pin 28.
The ENV detection block detects the fluctuation of the 3T-composition in the RF signal
which is needed for focus balance adjustment. C39 connected to Pin 11 forms a filter for
detecting the signal fluctuation. The ENV output signal from Pin 12 is filtered by C29.

APC
The laser diode has large negative temperature characteristic in its optical output when
driven with a constant current on laser diode. Therefore, the output on processing monitor
photo diode, must be a controlled current for getting regular output power, thus the APC
(Auto Power Control) circuit is composed.
