1. CIRCUIT DESCRIPTIONS

1. Front end section (MN2DS0016AAUB : IC1501)

MN2DS0016AAUB is a 1 chip LSI for DVD-Player. A DVD-Player system can be constructed by connecting this LSI,

driver IC, SDRAM, Flash-ROM, Audio-DAC, etc. This LSI includes a front end (SODC/FE) which executes RF signal processing, servo processing and decode processing, a back end (AV decoder/BE) which executes video decode processing such as MPEG1/MPEG2/JPEG and audio decode processing such as DVD-Audio/Dolby Digital /DTS/MP3, and a system controller which controls the system. The front end section realizes optical head signal computation processing and RF signal processing, digital signal processing (16-8 demodulation, error correction) for DVD-ROM playback according to the DVD specifications, digital signal processing of CD-DA/CD-ROM (error correction), AV decoder transfer, servo control, spindle motor control and seek control. In the case of MN2DS0016AAUB, the front end servo system waveforms, such as FE, TE and AS, are not observed as in the case of DVD mechanism module (MS4) CX-3183. Please pay attention.

1.1 Analog block (MN2DS0016AAUB : IC1501)

The functions of the analog block are as described below.

1. Reference power circuit

2. SERVO system/DPD system signal processing circuit Gain switching amplifier and Low Pass Filter (LPF)

3. RF signal processing circuit RF adding circuit, circuit to make inline, Variable Gain Amplifier (VGA) circuit

4. Laser power control (LPC) circuit

5. A/D converter for SERVO (10 bit, DPD system-4ch), PWM

1.1.1 APC circuit

The optical output of the laser diode (LD) has a large negative temperature characteristic. Therefore, if the LD is driven by a constant current, a constant optical output cannot be obtained. APC circuit is a circuit to control the current so that the output at the monitor diode (MD) will be constant. MN2DS0016AAUB includes 2 types of APC circuit, one for DVD and the other for CD. The LD current can be obtained by dividing the measured voltage between DVDLD1 (CDLD1) and 5 V by 6 Ω (1.5 Ω x 4=6 Ω), in the case of DVD (CD). It will be approximately 50 mA (45 mA) in the case of DVD (CD). The potential difference between DVDLD1(CDLD1) and 5 V is set to approx. 300 mV(270 mV).

1.1.3 TE forming circuit

Tracking error (TE) forming circuit

In the case of a DVD, the phase difference method is used for TE forming, and the TE is formed from the phase difference among (A+C) and (B+D).

In the case of a CD, 3 beam method is used, and after entering the signal into a variable amplifier for tracking offset adjustment via an external resistor, it is AD converted,

1.2 Servo block (MN2DS0016AAUB : IC1501)

At the servo block, focusing, tracking, servo control of traverse, spindle motor control and seek control are performed.

1.2.1 Focus close

Close to disc.

Lens

Merging point

Late

After issuing the focus close command, both the DVD and the CD will perform the following processing.

1. Measurement and optimization of the signal level.

First the PU lens is driven in the direction getting away from the disc, then it is driven in the direction getting close to the disc. At this time, each signal level of FE, AS and RFENV are measured at the focused focal point that the lens passes, and the levels of FE and AS are optimized. (1 and 2 in the figure)

2. Focus adjustment Next, after detecting the drawing level of FE and AS by driving the lens away from the disc, the focus loop filter is activated and the focus is drawn. (3~6)

3. Confirmation of adjustment Confirm the drawing at the signal level of AS and RFENV. (6, 7) The signal levels of FE, AS and RFENV and the focus drive voltage can be checked by the focus search in the test mode.

1.2.2 Tracking close

After issuing the tracking close command, both the DVD and the CD will perform the following processing.

1. Tracking brake 1/2 cycle of the track cross is measured and if the cycle is within the specified range, the brake pulse is output. The output direction of the brake pulse is determined by the phase relationship of the OFTR and the TKC (binary signal of TE) signals. When it is confirmed that the swinging of the lens against the disc has been controlled, braking will be stopped and enters into drawing. If the drawing conditions are not met within 10 msec, after the brake output, the brake will be ended and entered into drawing.

2. Tracking adjustment Tracking drive hold processing by the OFTR signal will be performed.

3. Confirmation of adjustment

Checking is made that the number of track jumps within the specified period of time are at the designated numbers or less. The time out for confirmation of adjustment is 8.4 msec. and retry is performed by the command from the microcomputer.

1.2.3 Track jump

In this system, one of the three methods, interval jump, multi jump or traverse seek, is selected depending on the number of target moving tracks.

1. Interval jump Detailed seek can be performed to execute repeated track jump of 1 track, and it is used when the target track gets close or at the time of seek operation to the adjacent track.

2. Multi jump Both edges of the track cross signal TKC are counted, and track count move of the designated number is executed. Furthermore, the stepping motor is driven according to the number of jumps.

3. Traverse seek The stepping motor is controlled by F/W. Track count by TKC is not performed, and the stepping motor is moved according to the number of jumps. In the case of a DVD, seek is performed by maintaining the pick up at the mid point using the mid point servo by the microcomputer. It indicates the setting for jump switching common to DVD and CD. Types of target move number of jumps.

1.2.4 Focus jump

Focus jump is a function compatible to 2 layers on one side or 2 layers on both sides. Looking from the object lens, the layer close to the lens is called “layer 0” (L0) and the layer away from the lens is called “layer 1” (L1).

Object lens

The waveform of the focus jump is shown below.

Focus jump waveform

The flow of the focus jump is shown below.

1. The tracking is opened by the layer being played back.

2. A command is issued to execute jump to the target layer.

3. The tracking is closed at the layer after the jump and the playback is resumed.

Incidentally, the process when the jump command is issued is as described below.

1. The lens is accelerated to the target layer until the FE signal detects the focus jump acceleration end level. Acceleration will be ended by force, however, if the time for acceleration timeout has elapsed before detecting the acceleration end level.

2. The drive voltage is not output until the FE signal detects the speed reduction start level, and the lens is moved by inertia.

3. The lens speed is reduced from detection of the speed reduction start level until detection of the speed reduction end level. Speed reduction will be ended by force, however, if the time for speed reduction timeout has elapsed before detecting the speed reduction end level.

1.3 Auto adjustment function

All circuit adjustments are automated in this system. Details of each auto adjustment are explained below.

1.3.1 VIN1, VIN2, VIN3, VIN4, VIN5, VIN6, VIN9, VIN10 offset cancel

Each signal from VIN1~6, 9 and 10 output by PU is converted to a digital signal by the AD converter in the servo block. Offset cancel is a function to cancel input offset of the AD converter at the time of power ON.

1.3.2 VCO gain adjustment (VARI adjustment)

It has a function to absorb variation of VCO gain among individual LSI by learning so that auto adjustment is made to maintain the VCO gain at a certain level. VCO is locked against the reference frequency for learning. And, a frequency control value (FCNT) is read, and VARI register is adjusted so that the read value becomes the same as the target FCNT value.

1.3.3 FE normalization adjustment

FE signal level measured at the time of focus close is adjusted so that it will become 190LSB at the digital equalizer input stage.

1.3.4 Tracking balance (TBAL) adjustment

At the time of focus close and tracking open, the lens is oscillated in the track direction and the balanced point where

the DC offset becomes zero is searched and adjusted by using the Newton-Raphson method.

1.3.5 Learning of tracking error amplitude

At the time of focus close and tracking open, the lens is oscillated in the track direction and adjusted so that the TE amplitude level becomes 190 LSB at the digital equalizer input stage.

1.3.6 OFTR adjustment

The binary threshold level is adjusted to make the OFTR signal into a binary digit.

1.3.7 RF gain adjustment

The gain setting is adjusted by the VGA value in order to set the gain setting of the RF forming circuit to an optimum one according to the PU output.

1.3.8 Focus balance (FBAL) adjustment

The focus position is adjusted so that the RFENV will be the maximum at the time of focus close tracking open and tracking close.

1.3.9 Focus gain adjustment, tracking gain adjustment

At the time of tracking close, a disturbance is entered into the servo loop to adjust to the target gain intersection.

1.3.10 AS normalization adjustment

The AS signal level is measured for the designated number of samples at the time of track closing, and after A/D conversion at the ADSC, it is fine adjusted to become 64 LSB at the digital equalizer input stage.

All auto adjustments can be confirmed by displaying the adjustment result in the test mode.
