1. CIRCUIT DESCRIPTIONS

The LSI (UPD63710GC) used on this unit comprises five main blocks ; the pre-amp section, servo, signal processor, DAC and CD text decoder (not used on this model). It also equips with nine automatic adjustment functions.

1.1 PRE-AMP SECTION

This section processes the pickup output signals to create the signals for the servo, demodulator and control. The pickup output signals are I-V converted by the preamp with the built-in photo-detector in the pickup, then added by the RF amp to obtain RF, FE, TE, TE zero cross and other signals. This pre-amp section is built in the servo LSI UPD63710GC (IC201). The following describes function of each section. Since this system has a single power supply (+5V), the reference voltage for this LSI and pickup are set to REFO (2.5V). The REFO is obtained by passing the REFOUT from the LSI through the buffer amplifier. The REFO is output from Pin 89 of this LSI. All measurements are done using this REFO as reference. Note : During the measurement, do not try to short the REFO and GND.

1) APC Circuit (Automatic Power Control)

When the laser diode is driven with constant current, the optical output has large negative temperature characteristics. Thus, the current must be controlled from the monitor diode so that the output may be constant. APC circuit is for it. The LD current is obtained by measuring the voltage between LD1 and V+5. The value of this current is about 35mA.

2) RF Amplifier and RFAGC Amplifier

The photo-detector outputs (A +C) and (B +D) are added, amplified and equalized on this LSI and then output to the RFI terminal as the RF signal. (The eye pattern can be checked by this signal.) The RFI voltage low frequency component is :

RFI = (A +B +C +D) ×3.2 RFI is used on the FOK generator circuit and RF offset adjusting circuit. R214 is an offset resistor for maintaining the bottom reference voltage of the RFI signal at 1.5 VDC. The D/A output used for the RF offset adjustment (to be described later) is entered via this resistor. After the RFI signal from Pin 77 is externally AC coupled, entered to Pin 76 again, then amplified on the RFAGC amplifier to obtain the RFO signal. The RFAGC adjustment function (to be described later) built-in the LSI is used for switching feedback gain of the RFAGC amplifier so that the RFO output may go to

1.5 ±0.3Vpp. The RFO signal is used for the EFM, DFCT, MIRR and RFAGC adjustment circuits.

3) RFOK Circuit

This circuit generates the signal that is used for indicating the timing of closing the focus or state of the focus close currently being played. This signal is output from Pin 4 as the FOK signal. It goes high when the focus close and in-play. The RFOK signal is generated by holding DC level of the RFI at its peak with the succeeding digital section, then comparing it at a specific threshold level. Thus, the RFOK signal goes high even if the pit is absent. It indicates that the focus close can take place on the disc mirror surface, too. This signal is also supplied to the micro computer via the low pass filter as the FOK signal and used for the protection and the RF amplifier gain switching.

4) Focus Error Amplifier

The photo-detector outputs (A+C) and (B+D) are passed through a differential amplifier and an error amplifier, and then (A+C−B−D) is output from Pin 91 as the FE signal. The FE voltage low frequency component is :

FE = (A + C − B − D) ××

= (A + C − B − D) × 5

Using REFO as the reference, an S-curve of approximately 1.5 Vpp is obtained for the FE output. The final-stage amplifier cutoff frequency is 11.4 kHz.

5) Tracking Error Amplifier

The photo-detector outputs E and F are passed through a differential amplifier and an error amplifier, and then (E −F) is output from Pin 93 as the TE signal. The TE voltage low frequency component is :

TE =(E −F)

××

(E −F) ×5.7 (Effective LSI output is 5.0). Using REFO as the reference, the TE waveform of approximately 1.3 Vpp is obtained for the TE output. The final-stage amplifier cutoff frequency is 20 kHz.

6) Tracking Zero Crossing Amplifier

TEC signal (the tracking zero crossing signal) is obtained by multiplying the TE signal four times. It is used for locating the zero crossing points of the tracking error. The zero cross point detection is done for the following two reasons :

To count tracks for carriage moves and track jumps.

To detect the direction in which the lens is moving

when the tracking is closed (it is used on the tracking brake circuit to be described later).

The TEC signal frequency range is 300 Hz to 20 kHz.

TEC voltage =TE level ×4 Theoretical TEC level is 5.2V. The signal exceeds Drange of the operational amplifier and thus is clipped. It, however, can be ignored since this signal is used by the servo LSI only at the zero crossing point.

7) DFCT (Defect) Circuit

The DFCT signal is used for detecting defects on the mirrored disc surface. It allows monitoring from the HOLD pin (Pin 2). It goes high when defects are found on the mirrored surface. The DFCT signal is generated by comparing the RF amplified signal (which is obtained by bottom holding the RFO signal) at a specific threshold level by the succeeding digital section. Stains or scratches on the disc can constitute the defects on the mirrored disc surface. Thus, as long as the DFCT signal remains high in the LSI, the focus and tracking servo drives are held in the current state so that a better defect prevention may be ensured.

8) 3TOUT Circuit

The 3TOUT signal is generated by entering disturbance to the focus servo loop, comparing phase of fluctuations of the RF signal 3T component against that of the FE signal at that time, then converting the signal to DC level. This signal is used for adjusting bias of the FE signal (to be described later). This signal is not output from the LSI, thus its monitoring is not available.

9) MIRR (Mirror) Circuit

The MIRR signal shows the on track and off track data, and is output from Pin 3. When the laser beam is

On track : MIRR ="L"

Off track : MIRR ="H" This signal is used on the brake circuit (to be described later) and also as the trigger to turn on track counting when jumping take place. The MIRR signal is supplied to the micro computer, too, for the protection purpose.

10) EFM Circuit

This circuit is used for converting the RF signal to digital signal consisting of “0” and “1”. The RFO signal from Pin 75 is externally AC coupled, entered to Pin 74, then applied to the EFM circuit. Loss of the RF signal due to scratches or stains on the disc, or vertical asymmetry of the RF due to variations in the discs manufactured can’t be eliminated by AC coupling alone. This circuit, therefore, controls the reference voltage ASY on the EFM comparator by use of the fact that “0” and “1” appear fifty fifty in the EFM signal. By this arrangement, the comparate level is constantly maintained at almost center of the RFO signal level. The reference voltage ASY is generated when the EFM comparator output is passed through the low pass filter. The EFM signal is output from Pin

71. It is a 2.5 Vp-p amplitude signal centering on REFO.
