Error code F050 due to Macronix ash memory
Creation Date: 03/06/2010
FS-2000D/3900DN/4000DN/6950DN/2020D/3920DN/4020DN/
Model:
6970DN
Phenomenon The commonly used Spansion ash memory at the high-voltage board has become difcult to
obtain, therefore we changed the common type to Macronix ash memory. Due to the above
mentioned change, error code F050 (Engine PWB ROM checksum error) may be displayed after
turning on the main switch. The above mentioned error can not be cleared by turining the main
switch OFF and ON.
Cause The CPU may stall due to garbled read-out of the data from the Macronix ash memory, when
the power goes down at the power-off process due to the variation of the functional low voltage
of the ash memory. When the CPU stalls, the data may be incorrectly written to the ash
memory. Under this condition part of the program in the ash memory may disappear and
therefore start up failure may occur when the main switch is turned ON.
Solution The engine high voltage board has been changed as follows:
1. The voltage of the reset IC (U5) has been changed from 3.9V to 4.2V.
2. The capacity of the chip capacitor (C14) has been changed from 0.1 microμF to 0.01 microμF.
