1 Safety Precautions

1.1. General Guidelines

1. When servicing, observe the original lead dress. If a short circuit is found, replace all parts which have been overheated or damaged by the short circuit.

2. After servicing, ensure that all the protective devices such as insulation barriers and insulation papers shields are properly installed.

3. After servicing, check for leakage current checks to prevent from being exposed to shock hazards.

1.1.1. Leakage Current Cold Check

1. Unplug the AC cord and connect a jumper between the two prongs on the plug.

2. Using an ohmmeter measure the resistance value, between the jumpered AC plug and each expose d metallic cabine t part on the equipment such as screwheads, connectors, control shafts, etc. When the exposed metallic part has a return path to the chassis, the reading should be between 1MΩ and 5.2MΩ . When the exposed metal does not have a return path to the chassis, the reading must be

Fig. 1

1.1.2. Leakage Current Hot Check (See Figure 1)

1. Plug the AC cord directly into the AC outlet. Do not use an isolation transformer for this check.

2. Connect a 1.5kΩ, 10 watts resistor, in parallel with a 0.15µF capacitor, between each exposed metallic part on the set and a good earth ground such as a water pipe, as shown in Figure 1.

3. Use an AC voltmeter, with 1000 ohms/volt or more sensitivity, to measure the potential across the resistor.

4. Check each exposed metallic part, and measure the voltage at each point.

5. Reverse the AC plug in the AC outlet and repeat each of the above measurements.

6. The potential at any point should not exceed 0.75 volts RMS. A leakage current tester (Simpson Model 229 or equivalent) may be used to make the hot checks, leakage current must not exceed 1/2 milliamp. Should the measurement is out of the limits specified, there is a possibility of a shock hazard, and the equipment should be repaired and rechecked before it is returned to the customer.

1.2. Caution for AC Mains Lead

SA-AK640E / SA-AK640EB / SA-AK640EG

1.3. Before repair and adjustment

Disconnect AC power, discharge Power Capacitors C5101, C5104, C5171, C5172, C5920, C5940 and C5950 through a 10Ω,5W

SA-AK640E / SA-AK640EB / SA-AK640EG

resistor to ground.

DO NOT SHORT-CIRCUIT DIRECTLY (with a screwdriver blade, for instance), as this may destroy solid state devices.

After repairs are completed, restore power gradually using a variac, to avoid overcurrent.

Current consum ption at AC 240V, 50 Hz in NO SIGNAL mode (volume min at CD mode) should be ~ 350mA.

1.4. Protection Circuitry

The protection circuitry may have operated if either of the following conditions are noticed:

· No sound is heard when the power is turned on.

· Sound stops during a performance.

The function of this circuitry is to prevent circuitry damage if, for example, the positive and negative speaker connection wires are

“shorted”, or if speaker systems with an impedance less than the indicated rated impedance of the amplifier are used.

If this occurs, follow the procedure outlines below:

1. Turn off the power.

2. Determine the cause of the problem and correct it.

3. Turn on the power once again after one minute.

Note :

When the protection circuitry functions, the unit will not operate unless the power is first turned off and then on again.

2 Prevention of Electro Static Discharge (ESD) to

Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices

Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged easily by electricity. Such components commonly are called Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some field-effect transistors and semiconductor “chip” components. The following techniques should be used to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by electro static discharge (ESD).

1. Immediately before handlin g any semiconductor component or semiconductor-equiped assembly, drain off any ESD on your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a commercially available discharging ESD wrist strap, which should be removed for potent ial shock reasons prior to applying power to the unit under test.

2. After removing an electrical assembly equiped with ES devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface such as aluminium foil, to prevent electrostatic charge build up or exposu re of the assembly.

3. Use only a grounded-tip soldering iron to solder or unsolder ES devices.

4. Use only an anti-static solder remover device. Some solder removal devices not classified as “anti-static (ESD protected)” can generate electrical charge to damage ES devices.

5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical charges sufficie nt to damage ES devices.

6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protective package until immediately before you are ready to install it. (Most replacement ES devices are packaged with leads electrically shorted together by conductive foam, aluminium foil or comparable conductive material).

7. Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement ES device, touch the protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installe d.

Caution

Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.

8. Minimize body motions when handling unpackaged replacement ES devices. (Otherwise harmless motion such as the brushing together of your clothes fabric or the lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate static electricity (ESD) sufficient to damage an ES device).

3 Handling Precautions For Traverse Deck

The laser diode in the traverse deck (optical pickup) may break down due to potential difference caused by the static electricity of clothes or our human body.

So, be careful of electrostatic breakdown during repair of the traverse deck (optical pickup).

· Way of handling the traverse deck (optical pickup)

1. Do not subject the traverse deck (optical pickup) to static electricity as it is extremely sensitive to electrical shock.

2. To prevent the breakdown of the laser diode, an antistatic shorting pin is inserted into the flexible board (FFC board).

3. Do not to apply excessive stress to the flexible board (FFC board). When removing or connecting the short pin, finish the job in as short time as possible.

4. Do not turn the variable resistor for laser power adjustment. (It is pre-adjusted during production time)

Grounding for electrostatic breakdown prevention

1. Human body grounding

Use the anti-static wrist strap to discharge the static electricity from your body.

2. Work table grounding

Put a conductive material (sheet) or steel sheet on the area where the traverse deck (optical pickup) is place, and ground the sheet.

Caution :

The static electricity of your clothes will not be grounded through the wrist strap. So, take care not to let your clothes touch the traverse deck (optical pickup).

Caution when replacing the Traverse Deck

The traverse deck has a short point shorted with solder to protect the laser diode against electrostatics breakdown. Be sure to remove the solder from the short point before making connections.

5 Handling the Lead-free Solder

5.1. About lead free solder (PbF)

Distinction of PbF P.C.B.:

P.C.B.s (manufactured) using lead free solder will have a PbF stamp on the P.C.B.

Caution:

· Pb free solder has a higher melting point than standard solder; Typically the melting point is 50 - 70°F (30 - 40°C) higher. Please use a high temperature soldering iron. In case of soldering iron with temperature control, please set it to 700 ± 20°F (370 ± 10°C).

· Pb free solder will tend to splash when heated too high (about 1100°F/600°C).

· W hen soldering or unsoldering, please completely remove all of the solder on the pins or solder area, and be sure to heat the

soldering points with the Pb free solder until it melts enough.
