- CD Player Service Precautions
1. For pickup unit(CXX1311) handling, please refer
to"Disassembly"(Page 21).
During replacement, handling precautions shall be
taken to prevent an electrostatic discharge(protection
by a short pin).
2. During disassembly, be sure to turn the power off
since an internal IC might be destroyed when a con-
nector is plugged or unplugged.

2. CIRCUIT DESCRIPTIONS
2.1 Preamplifier (UPC2572GS: IC101)
The preamplifier processes pickup output signals to
generate signals to be sent to the servo, demodulator,
and controller. The preamplifier with built-in photode-
tector converts signals from the pickup into intermedi-
ate voltage in the pickup. Then, addition is made in the
RF amplifier (IC101) to obtain RF, FE, TE, and TE zero
cross signals. The system consists of the UPC2572GS
and other components explained below. The system
uses a single power source (+5 V). Therefore, the refer-
ence voltage of IC101 and the reference voltage of the
power unit and servo circuit are REFOUT (+2.5 V). REFO
UT is obtained from REFOUT of servo LSI (IC201:
UPD63702GF) via a buffer, and is output from Pin 19 of
IC101. This REFOUT is used as reference for all mea-
surements.
Note:Do NOT short-circuit REFOUT and GND during
measurement.

1) Automatic Power Control (APC) circuit
Laser diode has negative temperature characteristics
with great optical output when the diode is driven with
constant current. Therefore, current must be controlled
by a monitor diode to ensure constant output. Thus
functions the APC circuit. LD current can be obtained by
measuring the voltage between LD1 and GND. The cur-
rent value is approximately 35 mA.

2) RF amplifier and RF AGC amplifier
Photodetector outputs (A+C) and (B+D) are added,
amplified and equalized in IC101, and output to the RFI
terminal as RF signal. (Eye pattern can be checked at
this terminal.)
Low-frequency components of voltage RFI is:
RFI = ((A + C) + (B + D)) x 3.22
where R111 is offset resistor to keep RFI signal within
the output range of the preamplifier. RFI signal is goes
under AC coupling, and is input to Pin 4 (RFIN termi-
nal).
IC101 contains an RF AGC circuit. RFO output from Pin
2 is maintained to a constant level (1.2 ±0.2 Vp-p). The
RFO signal is used in the EFM, DFCT, and MIRR circuits.
3) EFM circuit
The EFM circuit converts RF signal into digital signals of
"0" and "1". RFO signal after AC coupling is input to Pin
1, and supplied to the EFM circuit.
Asymmetry caused during manufacturing of discs can-
not be eliminated solely by AC coupling. Therefore, the
system controls the reference voltage ASY of the EFM
comparator by using the fact that probability to gener-
ate "0" and "1" is 50% in EFM signal. This reference volt-
age ASY is generated by output from the EFM com-
parator through L.P.F. EFM signal is output from Pin 35.
As signal level, amplification is 2.5 Vp-p around
REFOUT.
4) DFCT (defect) circuit
DFCT signal detects mirror defect in discs, and is output
from Pin 33. The system outputs "H" when a mirror
defect is detected.
If disc is soiled, the system determines it as lack of mir-
ror. Therefore, the system inputs the DFCT signal out-
put to the HOLD terminal of servo LSI. Focus and track-
ing servo drives change to Hold status only when DFCT
output is in "H" so that performance of the system upon
detection of defect can be improved.
5) RFOK circuit
The RFOK circuit outputs signal to show the timing of
focus closing servo, as well as the status of focus clos-
ing during playback. The signal is output from Pin 32.
The system inputs the RFOK signal output to the RFOK
terminal of servo LSI. The servo LSI issues Focus Close
command. The system outputs signal in "H" during
focus closing and playback.

6) Focus-error amplifier
The system outputs photodetector output (A+C) and
(B+D) as FE signal (A+C)-(B+D) from Pin 28 via the dif-
ference amplifier, then via the error amplifier.
Low-frequency components of voltage FEY is:
An S curve equivalent to approximately 1.6 Vp-p is
obtained at FE output (Pin 28) by using REFO as refer-
ence. The cut-off frequency of the amplifier of the last
layer is 12.4 kHz.
7) Tracking-error amplifier
Outputs E and F from the photodetector are output as
TE signal (E-F) from Pin 24 via the difference amplifier,
then via the error amplifier.
Low-frequency components of voltage TEY is:
TE waveforms equivalent to approximately 1.5 Vp-p are
obtained at TE output (Pin 24) by using REFO as refer-
ence. The cut-off frequency of the amplifier of the last
layer is 19.5 kHz.
8) Tracking zero-cross amplifier
Tracking zero-cross signal (TEC signal) is generated by
amplifying TE waveforms (voltage at Pin 24) by a factor
of four. The signal is used for detecting the zero-cross
point of tracking error in the servo LSI UPD63702AGF.
The purposes of detecting the zero-cross point are as
follows:
(1)To be used for counting tracks for carriage move and
track jump.
(2)To be used for detecting the direction of lens move-
ment when tracking is closed. (To be used in the
tracking brake circuit mentioned later.)
The frequency range of TEC signal is from 500 Hz to
19.5 kHz.
Voltage TEC = TE level x 4
In other words, the TEC signal level is calculated as 6
Vp-p. This level exceeds the D range of the operation
amplifier, resulting in the signal to clip. However,
there shall be no problem, since the servo LSI uses
only zero-cross point.

9) MIRR (mirror) circuit
MIRR signal shows ON and OFF track information. The
signal is output from Pin 31.
The status of MIRR signal is as follows:
Laser beam ON track: MIRR = "L"
Laser beam OFF track: MIRR = "H"
The signal is used in the brake circuit mentioned later.
10) 3T OUT circuit
The system detects flickering of RF signal when distur-
bance is input to the focus servo loop, and outputs the
difference of phase between FE signal and RF-level
fluctuation signal from Pin 30. The resulting signal is
obtained through L.P.F. with a fc of 40 Hz. This signal is
used for automatic adjustment of FE bias.

2.2 Servo (UPD63702AGF: IC201)
The servo consists of mainly two parts. The first part is
the servo processing unit to equalize error signals and
control track jump, carriage move, in focus, etc. The
second part is the signal processing unit to perform
data decoding, error correction, and interpolation.
The system converts FE and TE signals from analog to
digital in IC201, then outputs drive signals of the focus,
tracking, and carriage systems via the servo block. The
EFM signal input from the preamplifier is decoded by
the signal processing unit, and eventually output as
audio signal after conversion into analog from digital
signals via the DA converter (IC201 contains audio
DAC). Then, the system generates error signal for the
spindle servo in the decoding process, sends the signal
to the spindle servo to generate drive signal for spin-
dle.
After that, drive signals for focus, tracking, carriage,
and spindle are amplified in IC301 and BA5986FM, and
supplied to respective actuators and motors.
1) Focus servo system
The main equalizer of focus servo is located in the
UPD63702AGF. Fig. 9 shows block diagram of the focus
servo.
For the focus servo system, the lens must be posi-
tioned within the focusing range in order to perform
focus closing. To achieve this, the system moves the
lens upward/downward by focus-search voltage of tri-
angular waveform to detect the focusing point. During
searching, the system kicks the SPDL motor to main-
tain rotation speed to set speed.
The servo LSI monitors FE and RFOK signals so that
focus closing is performed automatically at an appro-
priate point.
Focus closing is performed when the following four
conditions are satisfied:
(1)When the lens moves nearer to the disc.
(2)RFOK = "H"
(3)FZD signal (in IC) is latched to "H"
(4)FE = 0 (REFOUT as reference)

When the conditions mentioned above are satisfied and
focus is closed, the XSO terminal changes from "H" to
"L". Then, the microcomputer starts monitoring RFOK
signal through L.P.F after 40 ms.
If the system judges RFOK signal as "L", the microcom-
puter takes actions, including protection.
Fig. 10 shows operations related to focus closing. (The
illustration shows when the system cannot perform
focus closing.) S curve, search voltage, and actual lens
behavior can be checked by pressing the Focus Close
button when "01" is shown in Focus Mode Select in Test
mode.
