Safety Instructions, Warnings, and Notes
2.Safety Instructions, Warnings, and Notes
Index of this chapter:
2.1 Safety Instructions
2.2 Warnings
2.3 Notes
2.1Safety Instructions
Safety regulations require that during a repair:
•Connect the set to the AC Power via an isolation
transformer (> 800 VA).
•Replace safety components, indicated by the symbol h,
only by components identical to the original ones. Any
other component substitution (other than original type) may
increase risk of fire or electrical shock hazard.
Safety regulations require that after a repair, the set must be
returned in its original condition. Pay in particular attention to
the following points:
•Route the wire trees correctly and fix them with the
mounted cable clamps.
•Check the insulation of the AC Power lead for external
damage.
•Check the strain relief of the AC Power cord for proper
function.
•Check the electrical DC resistance between the AC Power
plug and the secondary side (only for sets which have a AC
Power isolated power supply):
1. Unplug the AC Power cord and connect a wire
between the two pins of the AC Power plug.
2. Set the AC Power switch to the "on" position (keep the
AC Power cord unplugged!).
3. Measure the resistance value between the pins of the
AC Power plug and the metal shielding of the tuner or
the aerial connection on the set. The reading should be
between 4.5 Mohm and 12 Mohm.
4. Switch "off" the set, and remove the wire between the
two pins of the AC Power plug.
•Check the cabinet for defects, to avoid touching of any
inner parts by the customer.
2.2Warnings
•All ICs and many other semiconductors are susceptible to
electrostatic discharges (ESD w). Careless handling
during repair can reduce life drastically. Make sure that,
during repair, you are connected with the same potential as
the mass of the set by a wristband with resistance. Keep
components and tools also at this same potential. Available
ESD protection equipment:
– Complete kit ESD3 (small tablemat, wristband,
connection box, extension cable and earth cable) 4822
310 10671.
– Wristband tester 4822 344 13999.
•Be careful during measurements in the high voltage
section.
•Never replace modules or other components while the unit
is switched "on".
•When you align the set, use plastic rather than metal tools.
This will prevent any short circuits and the danger of a
circuit becoming unstable.
2.3Notes
2.3.1 General
•Measure the voltages and waveforms with regard to the
chassis (= tuner) ground (H), or hot ground (I), depending
on the tested area of circuitry. The voltages and waveforms
shown in the diagrams are indicative. Measure them in the
Service Default Mode (see chapter 5) with a colour bar
signal and stereo sound (L: 3 kHz, R: 1 kHz unless stated
otherwise) and picture carrier at 475.25 MHz for PAL, or
61.25 MHz for NTSC (channel 3).
•Where necessary, measure the waveforms and voltages
with (D) and without (E) aerial signal. Measure the
voltages in the power supply section both in normal
operation (G) and in stand-by (F). These values are
indicated by means of the appropriate symbols.
•The semiconductors indicated in the circuit diagram and in
the parts lists, are interchangeable per position with the
semiconductors in the unit, irrespective of the type
indication on these semiconductors.
•Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories.
“Dolby” and the “double-D symbol”, are trademarks of
Dolby Laboratories.
2.3.2Schematic Notes
•All resistor values are in ohms and the value multiplier is
often used to indicate the decimal point location (e.g. 2K2
indicates 2.2 kohm).
•Resistor values with no multiplier may be indicated with
either an "E" or an "R" (e.g. 220E or 220R indicates 220
ohm).
•All capacitor values are given in micro-farads (µ= x10
nano-farads (n= x10
•Capacitor values may also use the value multiplier as the
decimal point indication (e.g. 2p2 indicates 2.2 pF).
•An "asterisk" (*) indicates component usage varies. Refer
to the diversity tables for the correct values.
•The correct component values are listed in the Spare Parts
list. Therefore, always check this list when there is any
doubt.
2.3.3Rework on BGA (Ball Grid Array) ICs
General
Although (LF)BGA assembly yields are very high, there may
still be a requirement for component rework. By rework, we
mean the process of removing the component from the PWB
and replacing it with a new component. If an (LF)BGA is
removed from a PWB, the solder balls of the component are
deformed drastically so the removed (LF)BGA has to be
discarded.
Device Removal
As is the case with any component that, it is essential when
removing an (LF)BGA, the board, tracks, solder lands, or
surrounding components are not damaged. To remove an
(LF)BGA, the board must be uniformly heated to a temperature
close to the reflow soldering temperature. A uniform
temperature reduces the chance of warping the PWB.
To do this, we recommend that the board is heated until it is
certain that all the joints are molten. Then carefully pull the
component off the board with a vacuum nozzle. For the
appropriate temperature profiles, see the IC data sheet.
Area Preparation
When the component has been removed, the vacant IC area
must be cleaned before replacing the (LF)BGA.
Removing an IC often leaves varying amounts of solder on the
mounting lands. This excessive solder can be removed with
either a solder sucker or solder wick. The remaining flux can be
removed with a brush and cleaning agent.
After the board is properly cleaned and inspected, apply flux on
the solder lands and on the connection balls of the (LF)BGA.
Note: Do not apply solder paste, as this has shown to result in
problems during re-soldering.

-6
),
).
Directions for Use
EN 5LC4.7L AA3.
Device Replacement
The last step in the repair process is to solder the new
component on the board. Ideally, the (LF)BGA should be
aligned under a microscope or magnifying glass. If this is not
possible, try to align the (LF)BGA with any board markers.
So as not to damage neighbouring components, it may be
necessary to reduce some temperatures and times.

2.3.4 Lead Free Solder
Philips CE is going to produce lead-free sets (PBF) from
1.1.2005 onwards.
(needs subscription,
P
b
Figure 2-1 Lead-free logo
This sign normally has a diameter of 6 mm, but if there is less
space on a board also 3 mm is possible.
Regardless of this logo (is not always present), one must treat
all sets from this date onwards according to the following rules.
Due to lead-free technology some rules have to be respected
by the workshop during a repair:
•Use only lead-free soldering tin Philips SAC305 with order
code 0622 149 00106. If lead-free solder paste is required,
please contact the manufacturer of your soldering
equipment. In general, use of solder paste within
workshops should be avoided because paste is not easy to
store and to handle.
•Use only adequate solder tools applicable for lead-free
soldering tin. The solder tool must be able
– To reach at least a solder-tip temperature of 400°C.
– To stabilise the adjusted temperature at the solder-tip.
– To exchange solder-tips for different applications.
•Adjust your solder tool so that a temperature around 360°C
- 380°C is reached and stabilised at the solder joint.
Heating time of the solder-joint should not exceed ~ 4 sec.
Avoid temperatures above 400°C, otherwise wear-out of
tips will rise drastically and flux-fluid will be destroyed. To
avoid wear-out of tips, switch “off” unused equipment or
reduce heat.
•Mix of lead-free soldering tin/parts with leaded soldering
tin/parts is possible but PHILIPS recommends strongly to
avoid mixed regimes. If not to avoid, clean carefully the
solder-joint from old tin and re-solder with new tin.
•Use only original spare-parts listed in the Service-Manuals.
Not listed standard material (commodities) has to be
purchased at external companies.
•Special information for lead-free BGA ICs: these ICs will be
delivered in so-called "dry-packaging" to protect the IC
against moisture. This packaging may only be opened
short before it is used (soldered). Otherwise the body of the
IC gets "wet" inside and during the heating time the
structure of the IC will be destroyed due to high (steam)pressure inside the body. If the packaging was opened
before usage, the IC has to be heated up for some hours
(around 90°C) for drying (think of ESD-protection!).
Do not re-use BGAs at all!
•For sets produced before 1.1.2005, containing leaded
soldering tin and components, all needed spare parts will
be available till the end of the service period. For the repair
of such sets nothing changes.
In case of doubt whether the board is lead-free or not (or with
mixed technologies), you can use the following method:
•Always use the highest temperature to solder, when using
SAC305 (see also instructions below).
•De-solder thoroughly (clean solder joints to avoid mix of
two alloys).
Caution: For BGA-ICs, you must use the correct temperatureprofile, which is coupled to the 12NC. For an overview of these
profiles, visit the website www.atyourservice.ce.philips.com
(needs subscription, but is not available for all regions)
You will find this and more technical information within the
"Magazine", chapter "Workshop information".
For additional questions please contact your local repair help
desk.
2.3.5Practical Service Precautions
•It makes sense to avoid exposure to electrical shock.
While some sources are expected to have a possible
dangerous impact, others of quite high potential are of
limited current and are sometimes held in less regard.
•Always respect voltages. While some may not be
dangerous in themselves, they can cause unexpected
reactions - reactions that are best avoided. Before reaching
into a powered TV set, it is best to test the high voltage
insulation. It is easy to do, and is a good service precaution.
3.Directions for Use
You can download this information from the following websites:
•Figures below can deviate slightly from the actual situation,
due to the different set executions.
•Follow the disassemble instructions in described order.
4.2Service Positions
For easy servicing of this set, there are a few possibilities
created:
•The buffers from the packaging (see figure "Rear cover").
•Foam bars (created for service).
•Aluminium service stands (created for Service).
4.2.1 Foam Bars
E_06532_018.eps
Figure 4-2 Foam bars
The foam bars (order code 3122 785 90580 for two pieces) can
be used for all types and sizes of Flat TVs. By laying the TV
face down on the (ESD protective) foam bars, a stable situation
is created to perform measurements and alignments.
By placing a mirror under the TV, you can monitor the screen.

Figure 4-3 Aluminium stands (drawing of MkI)
The aluminium stands (order code 3122 785 90480) can be
mounted with the back cover removed or still left on. So, the
stand can be used to store products or to do measurements. It
is also very suitable to perform duration tests without taking
much space, without having the risk of overheating, or the risk
of products falling. The stands can be mounted and removed
quick and easy with use of the delivered screws that can be
tightened and loosened manually without the use of tools. See
figure above.
Note: Only use the delivered screws to mount the monitor to
the stands.

5.2.3Customer Service Mode (CSM)
Purpose
The Customer Service Mode shows error codes and
information on the TV’s operation settings. The call centre can
instruct the customer (by telephone) to enter CSM in order to
identify the status of the set. This helps the call centre to
diagnose problems and failures in the TV set before making a
service call.
The CSM is a read-only mode; therefore, modifications are not
possible in this mode.

5.4ComPair
5.4.1Introduction
ComPair (Computer Aided Repair) is a service tool for Philips
Consumer Electronics products. ComPair is a further
development on the European DST (service remote control),
which allows faster and more accurate diagnostics. ComPair
has three big advantages:
•ComPair helps you to quickly get an understanding on how
to repair the chassis in a short time by guiding you
systematically through the repair procedures.
•ComPair allows very detailed diagnostics (on I
is therefore capable of accurately indicating problem areas.
You do not have to know anything about I
yourself because ComPair takes care of this.
•ComPair speeds up the repair time since it can
automatically communicate with the chassis (when the
microprocessor is working) and all repair information is
directly available. When ComPair is installed together with
the Force/SearchMan electronic manual of the defective
chassis, schematics and PWBs are only a mouse click
away.
5.4.2Specifications
ComPair consists of a Windows based fault finding program
and an interface box between PC and the (defective) product.
The ComPair interface box is connected to the PC via a serial
(or RS232) cable.
For this chassis, the ComPair interface box and the TV
communicate via a bi-directional service cable via the service
connector(s).
The ComPair fault finding program is able to determine the
problem of the defective television. ComPair can gather
diagnostic information in two ways:
•Automatic (by communication with the television): ComPair
can automatically read out the contents of the entire error
buffer. Diagnosis is done on I
access the I
send and receive I
2
C/UART bus of the television. ComPair can
2
C/UART commands to the micro
controller of the television. In this way, it is possible for
2
C/UART level. ComPair can
2
C level) and
2
C commands
ComPair to communicate (read and write) to devices on
2
the I
C/UART buses of the TV-set.
•Manually (by asking questions to you): Automatic
diagnosis is only possible if the micro controller of the
television is working correctly and only to a certain extend.
When this is not the case, ComPair will guide you through
the fault finding tree by asking you questions (e.g. Does the
screen give a picture? Click on the correct answer: YES /
NO) and showing you examples (e.g. Measure test-point I7
and click on the correct oscillogram you see on the
oscilloscope). You can answer by clicking on a link (e.g.
text or a waveform picture) that will bring you to the next
step in the fault finding process.
By a combination of automatic diagnostics and an interactive
question / answer procedure, ComPair will enable you to find
most problems in a fast and effective way.
Beside fault finding, ComPair provides some additional features like:
•Up- or downloading of pre-sets.
•Managing of pre-set lists.
•Emulation of the (European) Dealer Service Tool (DST).
•If both ComPair and Force/SearchMan (Electronic Service
Manual) are installed, all the schematics and the PWBs of
the set are available by clicking on the appropriate
hyperlink.
Example: Measure the DC-voltage on capacitor C2568
(Schematic/Panel) at the Mono-carrier.
– Click on the “Panel” hyperlink to automatically show
the PWB with a highlighted capacitor C2568.
– Click on the “Schematic” hyperlink to automatically
show the position of the highlighted capacitor.
5.4.3How To Connect
This is described in the chassis fault finding database in
ComPair .
Note: If you encounter any problems, contact your local
support desk.
Service Modes, Error Codes, and Fault Finding
EN 13LC4.7L AA5.
5.5Error Codes
The error code buffer contains all errors detected since the last
time the buffer was erased. The buffer is written from left to
right. When an error occurs that is not yet in the error code
buffer, it is displayed at the left side and all other errors shift one
position to the right.
5.5.1 How To Read The Error Buffer
You can read the error buffer in 3 ways:
•On screen via the SAM (if you have a picture).
Examples:
– ERROR: 0 0 0 0 0: No errors detected
– ERROR: 6 0 0 0 0: Error code 6 is the last and only
detected error
– ERROR: 9 6 0 0 0: Error code 6 was detected first and
error code 9 is the last detected (newest) error
•Via the blinking LED procedure (when you have no
picture). See “The Blinking LED Procedure”.
•Via ComPair.
5.5.2 How To Clear The Error Buffer
The error code buffer is cleared in the following cases:
•By using the CLEAR command in the SAM menu:
– To enter SAM, press the following key sequence on the
remote control transmitter: “062596” directly followed
by the OSD/STATUS button (do not allow the OSD
display to time out between entries while keying the
sequence).
– Make sure the menu item CLEAR is highlighted. Use
the CURSOR UP/DOWN buttons, if necessary.
– Press the CURSOR RIGHT button to clear the error
buffer. The text on the right side of the “CLEAR” line will
change from “CLEAR?” to “CLEARED”
•If an error does not re-occur within 50 hours it is deleted
from the error buffer.

5.6The Blinking LED Procedure
Using this procedure, you can make the contents of the error
buffer visible via the front LED. This is especially useful when
there is no picture.
When the SDM is entered, the front LED will blink the contents
of the error-buffer:
•The LED blinks with as many pulses as the error code
number, followed by a time period of 1.5 seconds, in which
the LED is “off”.
•Then this sequence is repeated.
Any RC5 command terminates this sequence.
Example of error buffer: 12 9 6 0 0
After entering SDM, the following occurs:
•1 long blink of 5 seconds to start the sequence,
•12 short blinks followed by a pause of 1.5 seconds,
•9 short blinks followed by a pause of 1.5 seconds,
•6 short blinks followed by a pause of 1.5 seconds,
•1 long blink of 1.5 seconds to finish the sequence,
•The sequence starts again at 12 short blinks.
5.7Fault Finding and Repair Tips
5.5.3 Error Codes
In case of non-intermittent faults, write down the errors present
in the error buffer and clear the error buffer before you begin
the repair. This ensures that old error codes are no longer
present.
If possible, check the entire contents of the error buffer. In
some situations, an error code is only the result of another error
and not the actual cause of the problem (for example, a fault in
the protection detection circuitry can also lead to a protection).

Notes:
•It is assumed that the components are mounted correctly
with correct values and no bad solder joints.
•Before any fault finding actions, check if the correct options
are set.
5.7.1NVM Editor
In some cases, it can be handy if one directly can change the
NVM contents. This can be done with the “NVM Editor” in SAM
mode. With this option, single bytes can be changed.

.StoreStore ?
5.7.2Load default NVM values
In case a blank NVM is placed or when the NVM content is
corrupted, default values can be downloaded into the NVM.
After the default values are downloaded it will be possible to
start up and to start aligning the TV set. This is no longer
initiated automatically; to initiate the download the following
action has to be performed:
1. Switch the TV set “off” via the AC Power switch.
2. Short circuit the SDM jumpers (keep short-circuited).
3. Press P+ or Ch+ on the local keyboard (and keep it
pressed).
4. Switch the TV set “on” via the AC Power switch.
5. When the set has started, the P+/Ch+ button can be
released and the short circuit of the SDM jumpers can be
removed.
EN 14LC4.7L AA5.
6. The red LED will be on continuously to indicate that the
download is initiated (normally when SDM is activated the
red LED will start with the Blinking LED sequence).
7. Wait +/- 30 s (time needed to download default values to
the NVM).
5.7.3Tuner and IF
No Picture in RF mode
1. Check whether picture is present in EXT. If not, go to Video
processing troubleshooting section.
2. If present, check that the Option settings are correct.
3. Check that all supply voltages are present.
4. Check if I
5. Manually store a known channel and check if there is IF
output at Tuner pin 11.
6. Feed in 105 dBuV at Tuner pin 11 and check whether there
is RGB output from Video Processing IC. If yes, Tuner may
be defect. Replace Tuner.
Required system is not selected correctly
1. Check whether a Service jumper (#4022, 0805 size) is
present. If yes, remove it.
5.7.4 Video Processing

C lines are working correctly (3.3V).
Service Modes, Error Codes, and Fault Finding
No power
1. Check +12 V and 3V3 at position 1910.
2. If no supply, check the connector 1910.
3. If it is correct, check the power supply board.
Power supply is correct but no green LED
1. Check if connectors 1005 and 1601 are properly inserted.
2. If yes, check if the 3V3 is present.
No picture display
1. Check the RGB signal.
2. If it is present, check 3-IC7016 (NE555).
3. If it has output, the problem is in SCALER part.
4. Otherwise, check H-out on pin 2 of NE555. If the input
signal of pin2 is present, but no output, the IC is defect.
Note:
•If the H-out (pin 67) doesn’t have signal or the level is low,
check the output of NE555 (pin 3) during start up.
•If the H-out (pin 67) has a signal (or has a signal for a very
short time), change IC7016 (NE555).
No TV but PC is present
1. Check if HSYNC and VSYNC are present at pin 3 of 7017
and 7015.
2. If they are present, check RGB output.
3. If there is no RGB output, the IC TDA120xx can be defect.
5.7.5 Power Supply
In this service manual the power supply of the PDP panel is
described as “black box”. Defects in this panel, can be traced
by error-codes in the error buffer, or by incorrect behaviour of
the panel.
For some basic voltage-measurements, you can use the block
diagram(s) in Chapter 6.
Note: For a complete description of the Plasma panel, see the
SDI plasma panel Service Manual (12nc is listed on the front
page).

The PLL tuner delivers the IF-signal, via audio & video SAWfilters, to the Video Signal Processor with FLASH embedded
TEXT/Control/Graphics m-Controller (TCG m-Controller) and
US Closed Caption decoder. TDA120x1 (item 7011, also called
Hercules). This IC has the following functions:
•Analogue Video Processing.
•Sound Demodulation.
•Audio Interfaces and switching.
•Volume and tone control for loudspeakers.
•Reflection and delay for loudspeaker channels.
•Micro Controller.
•Data Capture.
•Display.
9.1Introduction
The LC4.x is a global chassis for the year 2004. Its architecture
is based upon the LC03 chassis (LC4.6 is LCD, LC4.7 is PDP).
This chassis has the following (new) features:
•Audio: The sound processor is part of the UOC processor
(called “Hercules”).
•Video: Enhanced video features, video drivers, Active
Control and multiple PIP.
The functions for video/audio processing, microprocessor (uP),
and CC/Teletext (TXT) decoder are all combined in one IC
(TDA120xx, item 7011), the so-called third generation Ultimate
One Chip (UOC-III) or “Hercules”. This chip has the following
features:
•Control, small signal, mono/stereo, and extensive Audio/
Video switching in one IC.
•Upgrade with digital sound & video processing.
•Alignment free IF.
•FM sound, no traps/bandpass filters.
•Full multi-standard colour decoder.
•One Xtal reference for all functions (microprocessor, RCP,
TXT/CC, RDS, colour decoder, and stereo sound
processor).
The Hercules, and EEPROM are supplied with 3.3 V, which is
also present during STANDBY.
The EEPROMs, or NVMs (Non Volatile Memory) are used to
store the settings.
The sound part is built up around the Hercules. The Source
Selection, Decoding and Processing are all done by the
Hercules.
Power supply input are several DC voltages coming from a
supply panel.
The Hercules has one input for the internal CVBS signal and a
video switch with 3 external CVBS inputs and a CVBS output.
All CVBS inputs can be used as Y-input for Y/C signals.
However, only 2 Y/C sources can be selected because the
circuit has 2 chroma inputs. It is possible to add an additional
CVBS(Y)/C input (CVBS/YX and CX) when the YUV interface
and the RGB/YPRPB input are not needed. The I/O is divided
over two parts: Rear I/O and Side I/O. The rear has two SCART
inputs and a PC (VGA) input. The side has a CVBS and Y/C
(SVHS) input.
The video part delivers the RGB signals to the Scaler IC.
The Genesis GM1501 Malibu Scaler IC can receive different
video input signals: SDTV (from Hercules) or PC (VGA) (from
external computer).
After the video processing, the digital data is send via a Low
Voltage Differential Signalling bus to the display panel. LVDS
is used to improve data speed and to reduce EMI significantly.
There are two I2C lines and two interrupt and communication
lines (TV_IRQ and TV_SC_COM) for the Scaler control. The
Scaler communicates with the Hercules as a slave device. To
avoid buffer overflow at the Scaler side, the TV_SC_COM line
provides the necessary hardware flow control. To allow bidirectional communication, the Scaler can initiate a service
interrupt-request to the Hercules via the TV_IRQ line.

The video processing is completely handled by the Hercules
•IF demodulator.
•Chrominance decoder
•Sync separator.
•Horizontal & vertical drive.
•RGB processing.
•CVBS and SVHS source select.
It has also build in features like:
•CTI.
•Black stretch.
•Blue stretch.
•White stretch.
•Slow start up.
•Dynamic skin tone correction etc.
Further, it also incorporates sound IF traps and filters, and
requires only one crystal for all systems.
9.6.1Histogram (YUV picture improvement) IC
The demodulated video-signal can be checked on pins 74, 75,
and 76 of IC7011 and is fed to pins 70, 71, and 72. In this path,
the Histogram IC TDA9171 is inserted.
This TDA9178 can control various picture improvements:
•Histogram processing.
•Colour transient improvement.
•Luminance transient improvement.
•Black and white stretch.
•Skin tone correction.
•Green enhancement.
•Blue stretch.
•Smart peaking.
•Video dependent coring.
•Colour dependent stretching.
Since the TDA9171 is connected to the Hercules, picture
improvement works only for signals that are routed through the
Hercules and not for signals directly connected to the Scaler.
9.7Video: Scaler Part (diagram A7 and A13)
The Genesis GM1501 Scaler is a dual channel graphics and
video processing IC for flat monitors and televisions
incorporating Picture in Picture, up to SXGA output resolutions.
The Scaler controls the display processing in a FTV, e.g. like
the deflection circuit in a CRT-based TV. It controls all the view
modes (e.g. like "zooming" and "shifting"). Features like PC
(VGA) or HD inputs, are also handled by this part.
A Philips UV13xx Tuner is used in the TV board. The SIF
signals are decoded by the Hercules. Tuning is done via I2C.
9.5.1Video IF amplifier
The IF-filter is integrated in a SAW (Surface Acoustic Wave)
filter. One for filtering IF-video (1328) and one for IF-audio
(1330). The type of these filters is depending of the standard(s)
that has to be received.
The output of the tuner is controlled via an IF-amplifier with
AGC-control. This is a voltage feedback from pin 31 of the
Hercules to pin 1 of the tuner. The AGC-detector operates on
top sync and top white level. AGC take-over point is adjusted
via the service alignment mode "Tuner” - “AGC". If there is too
much noise in the picture, then it could be that the AGC setting
is wrong. The AGC-setting could also be mis-aligned if the
picture deforms with perfect signal; the IF-amplifier amplifies
too much.
9.7.1Features
The Scaler provides several key IC functions:
•Scaling.
•Auto-configuration/ Auto-Detection.
•Various Input Ports:
– Analog RGB.
– Video Graphics.
•Integrated LVDS Transmitter.
•On-chip Micro-controller
9.7.2Inputs
Analog RGB
The RGB input is fed to pins B2, C2 and D2. This input consists
of either the Hercules RGB output or the RGB/YpbPr input of
the VGA connector. The Scaler can switch between the two
signals via the PC_HD_SEL signal and selection IC SM5301.
Circuit Descriptions, Abbreviation List, and IC Data Sheets
EN 65LC4.7L AA9.
PC (VGA) input
The VGA input is processed by the VGA block of the Scaler.
The Scaler supports pixel frequencies up to 165MHz.
YpbPr format is also supported via the VGA interface and
covers resolutions of 480p/560p/720p/1080i.
9.7.3Output
The Display Output Port provides data and control signals that
permit the Scaler to connect to a variety of display devices
using a TTL or LVDS interface. The output interface is
configurable for single or dual wide TTL/LVDS in 18, 24 or 30bit RGB pixels format. All display data and timing signals are
synchronous with the DCLK output clock. The integrated LVDS
transmitter is programmable to allow the data and control
signals to be mapped into any sequence depending on the
specified receiver format.

On top of that, it can be further broken down into various
systems depending on the region. The systems or region
chosen, will in turn affect the type of sound standard that is/are
allowed to be decoded.
•For Europe, the standard consists of BG/DK/I/LL’ for a
Multi-System set. There are also versions for Eastern
Europe and Western Europe and the standard for decoding
will be BG/DK and I/DK respectively.
•For NAFTA and LATAM, there is only one transmission
standard, which is the M standard. The diversity then will
be based on whether it has a dBx noise reduction or a NondBx (no dBx noise reduction).
•For AP, the standard consists of BG/DK/I/M for a MultiSystem set. The diversity here will depend on the region.
AP China can have a Multi-System and I/DK version. For
India, it might only be BG standard.
9.8.2Functionality
The features available in the Hercules are as follows:
•Treble and Bass Control.
•Surround Sound Effect that includes:
– Incredible Stereo.
– Incredible Mono.
– 3D Sound (not for AV Stereo).
– TruSurround (not for AV Stereo).
– Virtual Dolby Surround, VDS422 (not for AV Stereo).
– Virtual Dolby Surround, VDS423 (not for AV Stereo).
– Dolby Pro-Logic (not for AV Stereo).
•Bass Feature that includes:
– Dynamic Ultra-Bass.
– Dynamic Bass Enhancement.
– BBE (not for AV Stereo).
•Auto-Volume Leveller.
•5 Band Equalizer.
•Loudness Control.
All the features stated are available for the Full Stereo versions
and limited features for the AV Stereo
Figure 9-2 Block diagram audio processing
The audio decoding is done entirely via the Hercules. The IF
output from the Tuner is fed directly to either the Video-IF or the
Sound-IF input depending on the type of concept chosen.
There are mainly two types of decoder in the Hercules, an
analogue decoder that decodes only Mono, regardless of any
standards, and a digital decoder (or DEMDEC) that can decode
both Mono and Stereo, again regardless of any standards.
In this chassis, the analogue decoder is used in two cases:
•It is used for AM Sound demodulation in the Europe
SECAM LL’ transmission.
•It is used for all FM demodulation in AV-Stereo sets.
9.8.1Diversity
The diversity for the Audio decoding can be broken up into two
main concepts:
•The Quasi Split Sound concept used in Europe and some
AP sets.
•The Inter Carrier concept, used in NAFTA and LATAM.
The UOC-III family makes no difference any more between
QSS- and Intercarrier IF, nearly all types are softwareswitchable between the two SAW-filter constructions.
Simple data settings are required for the set to determine
whether it is using the Inter Carrier or the QSS concept. These
settings are done via the “QSS” and “FMI” bit found in SAM
mode. Due to the diversity involved, the data for the 2 bits are
being placed in the NVM location and it is required to write once
during start-up.

This panel contains the audio filters and amplifiers necessary

The audio inputs come from the SSB (via connector 1739).
The PSU delivers the positive and negative supply voltage of
16 V
.
DC
After being filtered and amplified, the signals go to the speaker
section, where the full range speakers are driven (load
impedance is 8 ohm).
Amplifier
The amplifier is an integrated class-D amplifier (TDA7490). It
combines a good performance with a high efficiency, resulting
in a big reduction in heat generation.
Principle
Audio-power-amplifier systems have traditionally used linear
amplifiers, which are well known for being inefficient. In fact, a
linear Class AB amplifier is designed to act as a variable
resistor network between the power supply and the load. The
transistors operate in their linear region, and the voltage that is
dropped across the transistors (in their role as variable
resistors) is lost as heat, particularly in the output transistors.
Class D amplifiers were developed as a way to increase the
efficiency of audio-power-amplifier systems.
The Class D amplifier works by varying the duty cycle of a
Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) signal.
By comparing the input voltage to a triangle wave, the amplifier
increases duty cycle to increase output voltage, and decreases
duty cycle to decrease output voltage.
EN 66LC4.7L AA9.
Circuit Descriptions, Abbreviation List, and IC Data Sheets
The output transistors of a Class D amplifier switch from 'full off'
to 'full on' (saturated) and then back again, spending very little
time in the linear region in between. Therefore, very little power
is lost to heat. If the transistors have a low 'on' resistance
(R
), little voltage is dropped across them, further reducing
DS(ON)
losses.
A Low Pass Filter at the output passes only the average of the
output wave, which is an amplified version of the input signal.
In order to keep the distortion low, negative feedback is applied
(via R3723/3708).
The advantage of Class D is increased efficiency (= less heat
dissipation). Class D amplifiers can drive the same output
power as a Class AB amplifier using less supply current.
The disadvantage is the large output filter that drives up cost
and size. The main reason for this filter is that the switching
waveform results in maximum current flow. This causes more
loss in the load, which causes lower efficiency. An LC filter with
a cut-off frequency less than the Class D switching frequency,
allows the switching current to flow through the filter instead of
the load. The filter is less lossy than the speaker, which causes
less power dissipated at high output power and increases
efficiency in most cases.
Mute
A mute switch (item 7701) is provided at pin 6. This switch is
controlled by the SOUND_ENABLE line from the Hercules
(mute during operation).
Protections
Because of the symmetrical supply, a DC-blocking capacitor,
between the amplifier and the speaker, is not necessary.
However, it is still necessary to protect the speaker for DC
voltages. Therefore, the following protections are therefore
implemented:
•Via R3765 and R3767, each stabilised supply voltage line
is checked on deviations.
•Via R3718 and 3717, each amplifier output is checked for
DC-voltage.

9.9.1 Hercules
The System Board has two main micro-controllers on board.
These are:
•On-chip x86 micro-controller (OCM) from Genesis LCD TV/
Monitor Controller.
•On-chip 80C51 micro-controller from Philips
Semiconductors UOCIII (Hercules) series.
Each micro-controller has it own I2C bus which host its own
internal devices.
The Hercules is integrated with the Video and Audio Processor.
For dynamic data storage, such as SMART PICTURE and
SMART SOUND settings, an external NVM IC is being used.
Another feature includes an optional Teletext/Closed Caption
decoder with the possibility of different page storage depending
on the Hercules type number.
The Micro Controller ranges in ROM from 128 kB with no TXTdecoder to 128 kB with a 10 page Teletext or with Closed
Caption.

The description of each functional pin is explained below:
•LED. This signal is used to drive the LED for Stand-by,
Remote, and Error Indication:
– During protection mode, the LED blinks and the set is
in Stand-by mode.
– During error conditions it blinks at a predefined rate.
– After receiving a valid RC or local keyboard command
it flashes once.
– For sets with error message indication, the LED blinks
when message is active and the set is in Stand-by
mode.
•SCL. This is the clock wire of the two-wire single master bidirectional I2C bus.
•SDA. This is the data wire of the two-wire single master bidirectional I2C bus.
•STANDBY. The Hercules generates this signal. This can
enable the power supply in normal operation and disable it
during Stand-by. It is of logic “high” (3.3 V) under normal
operation and “low” (0 V) during Stand-by.
•IR. This input pin is connected to an RC5 remote control
receiver.
•SEL-IF. This is an output pin to switch the Video SAW filter
between M system and other systems.
– 0: NTSC M (default).
– 1: PAL B/G, DK, I, L.
•NVM_WP. The global protection line is used to enable and
disable write protection to the NVM. When write to the NVM
is required, pin 7 of the NVM must be pulled to logic “0" first
(via Write_Protect of the micro-controller pin) before a write
is performed. Otherwise pin 7 of NVM must always be at
logic “1”
– 0: Disabled.
– 1: Enabled (default).
•SOUND_ENABLE. This pin is use to MUTE the audio
amplifier. It is configured as push pull.
•STATUS_1. This signal is used to read the status of the
SCART 1 input (EU only).
•STATUS_2. This signal is used to read the status of the
SCART 2 input (EU only).
•HERC_RESET. This pin is use to switch the +1.8 V supply.
•POWER_DOWN. The power supply generates this signal.
Logic “high” (3.3 V) under normal operation of the TV and
goes “low” (0 V) when the AC Power input voltage supply
goes below 70 V
•KEYBOARD. Following are the Keyboard functions and
