WARNING

Do not use solder containing lead.

This product has been manufactured using lead-free solder in order to help preserve the environment. Because of this, be sure to use lead-free solder when carrying out repair work, and never use solder containing lead.

Lead-free solder has a melting point that is 30 - 40°C (86 104°F) higher than solder containing lead, and moreover it does not contain lead which attaches easily to other metals. As a result, it does not melt as easily as solder containing lead, and soldering will be more difficult even if the temperature of the soldering iron is increased. The extra difficulty in soldering means that soldering time will increase and damage to the components or the circuit board may easily occur. Because of this, you should use a soldering iron and solder that satisfy the following conditions when carrying out repair work.

Soldering iron

Use a soldering iron which is 70 W or equivalent, and which lets you adjust the tip temperature up to 450°C (842°F). It should also have as good temperature recovery characteristics as possible. Set the temperature to 350°C (662°F) or less for chip components, to 380°C (716°F) for lead wires and similar, and to 420°C (788°F) when installing and removing shield plates. The tip of the soldering iron should have a C-cut shape or a driver shape so that it can contact the circuit board as flat or in a line as much as possible.

Note:

If replacing existing solder containing lead with lead-free solder in the soldered parts of products that have been manufactured up until now, remove all of the existing solder at those parts before applying the lead-free solder.

Solder

Use solder with the metal content and composition ratio by weight given in the table below. Do not use solders which do not meet these conditions.

3. Part of IC905 (H Driver) and IC901 (V Driver)

An H driver (part of IC905) and V driver (IC901) are necessary in order to generate the clocks (vertical transfer clock, horizontal transfer clock and electronic shutter clock) which driver the CCD. IC905 has the generation of horizontal transfer clock and the function of H driver, and is an inverter IC which drives the horizontal CCDs (H1 and H2). In addition the XV1-XV6 signals which are output from IC101 are vertical transfer clocks, and the XSG signal is superimposed onto XV1, XV3 and XV5 at IC901 in order to generate a ternary pulse. In addition, the XSUB signal which is output from IC101 is used as the sweep pulse for the electronic shutter, and the RG signal which is output from IC905 is the reset gate clock.

4. IC905 (H Driver, CDS, AGC and A/D converter)

IC905 contains the functions of H driver, CDS, AGC and A/D converter. As horizontal clock driver for CCD image sensor, HØ1 (A and B) and HØ2 (A and B) are generated inside, and output to CCD. The video signal which is output from the CCD is input to pins (27) of IC905. There are sampling hold blocks generated from the SHP and SHD pulses, and it is here that CDS (correlated double sampling) is carried out. After passing through the CDS circuit, the signal passes through the AGC amplifier (VGA: Variable Gain Amplifier). It is A/D converted internally into a 10-bit signal, and is then input to ASIC (IC101). The gain of the VGA amplifier is controlled by pin (31)-(33) serial signal which is output from ASIC (IC101).

1-2. CP1 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

1. Circuit Description 1-1. Digital clamp

The optical black section of the CCD extracts averaged values from the subsequent data to make the black level of the CCD output data uniform for each line. The optical black section of the CCD averaged value for each line is taken as the sum of the value for the previous line multiplied by the coefficient k and the value for the current line multiplied by the coefficient (k-1).

2. Color generation circuit

This circuit converts the CCD data into RGB signals.

3. Matrix circuit

This circuit generates the Y signals, R-Y signals and B-Y signals from the RGB signals.

2. Outline of Operation

When the shutter opens, the reset signals and the serial signals (“take a picture” commands) from the 8-bit microprocessor are input to ASIC (IC101) and operation starts. When the TG/SG drives the CCD, picture data passes through the A/D and CDS, and is then input to the ASIC as 12-bit data. The AF, AE, AWB, shutter, and AGC value are computed from this data, and three exposures are made to obtain the optimum picture. The data which has already been stored in the SDRAM is read by the CPU and color generation is carried out. Each pixel is interpolated from the surrounding data as being either R, G and B primary color data to produce R, G and B data. At this time, correction of the lens distortion which is a characteristic of wide-angle lenses is carried out. After AWB and γ processing are carried out, a matrix is generated and aperture correction is carried out for the Y signal, and the data is then compressed by the JPEG method by (JPEG) and is then written to card memory (SD card). When the data is to be output to an external device, it is taken data from the memory and output via the USB. When played back on the LCD and monitor, data is transferred from memery to the SDRAM, and the data elongated by JPEG decorder is displayed over the SDRAM display area.

1-4. STA STROBE CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

1. Charging Circuit

When UNREG power is supplied to the charge circuit and the CHG signal from microprocessor becomes High (3.3 V), the charging circuit starts operating and the main electorolytic capacitor is charged with high-voltage direct current. However, when the CHG signal is Low (0 V), the charging circuit does not operate.

1-1. Charging switch

The CHG signal becomes High, Q5406 becomes ON and the charging circuit starts operating.

1-2. Power supply filter

C5406 constitutes the power supply filter. They smooth out ripples in the current which accompany the switching of the oscillation transformer.

1-3. Oscillation circuit

This circuit generates an AC voltage (pulse) in order to increase the UNREG power supply voltage when drops in current occur. This circuit generates a drive pulse with a frequency of approximately 50-100 kHz. Because self-excited light omission is used, the oscillation frequency changes according to the drive conditions.

2. Light Emission Circuit

When FLCLT signals are input from the ASIC expansion port, the stroboscope emits light.

2-1. Emission control circuit

When the FLCLT signal is input to Hi at the emission control circuit, Q5409 switches on and preparation is made to the light emitting. Moreover, when a FLCLT signal becomes Lo, the stroboscope stops emitting light.

2-2. Trigger circuit

The Q5409 is turned ON by the FLCLT signal and light emission preparation is preformed. Simultaneously, high voltage pulses of several kV are emitted from the trigger coil and applied to the light emitter.

4. Power Supply Control

The 8-bit microprocessor controls the power supply for the overall system. The following is a description of how the power supply is turned on and off. When the battery is attached, IC955 is operating and creating 3.6 V, a regulated 3.2 V voltage is normally input to the 8-bit microprocessor (IC301) by IC302, clock counting and key scanning is carried out even when the power switch is turned off, so that the camera can start up again. When the power switch is off, the 8-bit microprocessor halts 8 MHz of the main clock, and operates 32.768 kHz of subclock. When the battery is removed, the 8-bit microprocessor power switches the lithum secondary battery for memory backup by IC302, and operates at low consumption. At this condition, the 8-bit microprocessor halts 8 MHz of the main clock, and operates

32.768 kHz clock counting by subclock. Also, the battery for backup is charged 16 hours from it to be attached. When the power switch is on, the 8-bit microprocessor starts processing. The 8-bit microprocessor first sets both the PON signal at pin (12) and the PAON signal (ASIC) to High, and then turn on the power circuit. After PON signal is to High, sets external port of ASIC after approximately 100 ms. According to setting of this external port, carry out setting of the operating frequency and oscillation control in the ASIC. Also, it starts communication with ASIC, and confirms the system is operative. When the through image is operating, set the PAON signal (ASIC) to High and then turn on the CCD. When the through image is playing, set the PAON signal to Low and then turn off the CCD. When LCD panel turns on, set LCD ON signal at pin (11) and LCD ON3 signal at pin (10) to High, and then turn on the power. Set BL ON signal at pin (9) to High, and turn on the backlight power. When the power switch is off, the lens will be stowed, and PON, PAON, LCDON and BLON signals to Low and the power supply to the whole system is halted. The 8-bit microprocessor halts oscillation of the main clock (8 MHz), and set operation mode of clock ocillation.
