1-3. Circuit Description

1. CMOS Block System
BI-202/203/204 Board
The BI-202, BI-203 and BI-204 boards are the rigid flexible boards connecting the CMOS image sensors (IC1) to the DPR-289A board.
the following AUTO operations of the camera are detected. The detected signals are sent to the CAMERA MICON (camera u-processor: IC314).
. Auto white balance . Auto black balance . Auto focus . Auto iris . Auto knee
The CMOS image sensor receives the three primary colors of R, G and B that are separated from the incoming light by the prism. The CMOS image sensor converts the incoming primary color to electric signal. The built-in 12­bit column A/D converters then convert the R, G and B analog video signals to the digital video signals respective­ly. The electronic shutter, analog gain amplifier and black level clamp functions are also provided in the above boards.
The BI-202 board is for the R-channel signal, the BI -203 board is for the G-channel signal and the BI -204 board is for the B-channel signal. The CMOS image sensor receives the sync signal and the serial communication signal from the DPR-289A board. The 12-bit digital video signals that are supplied from the CMOS image sensors pass through the EMI filters (FL1 to FL4) and are input to the DPR-289A board. Various decoupling capacitors and the damping resistors are also mounted in the above boards. IC3 of the BI-203 board is a temperature sensor that sends the temperature data to the CAMERA MICON (camera u- processor: IC314) on the DPR-289A board via I2C bus.
2. Camera Block System
DPR-289A Board
The DPR-289A board consists of the Camera Signal Processor IC (IC100) and the CAMERA MICON (camera u-processor: IC314) whereas the Camera Signal Processor IC (IC100) performs various processing on the digital video signal supplied from the CMOS image sensor, and the CAMERA MICON (IC314) performs control of IC100 and other various controls such as control of the CMOS image sensor and of lens. The output digital video (Y/C) signal is sent to the next circuit the video (baseband video) signal processing circuit.
The 12-bit digital video (RGB) signals supplied from the CMOS block (BI-202, BI-203 and BI-204 boards) first enter the camera signal processor IC (IC100). In the camera signal processor IC (IC100), average value, peak value of the RGB digital video signals that are required for
The digital video signal from the CMOS image sensor enters first the selector circuit selecting either the digital video signal from the CMOS image sensor or the internal TEST signal. The output video signal from the selector enters the compensation circuits consisting of the CMOS imager-related compensation circuit and the lens-related compensation circuit. The video signal then receives the white balance processing, and the matrix signal and the detail signal are added to the video signal. The video signal then receives the pedestal control, knee compensation, gamma correction and white/black clip processing. The video signal finally enters the baseband processing IC (IC400). The pixel number conversion processing from 1920/1080 to 1440/1080 or 1280/720 is also performed inside IC100.
The CAMERA MICON (camera u-processor: IC314) performs the overall control over the entire camera system and is controlled by the camera system controller (IC1600). Peripheral ICs of the CAMERA MICON (camera u- processor: IC314) are FLAH ROM (IC312) and SRAM (IC313). The CAMERA MICON (camera μ–processor: IC314) confirms the iris control and lens setup when the analog I/F lens is installed.
3. Video Signal System
DPR-289A Board
The digital video (Y/C) signal output from the camera signal processor IC (IC100) enters the baseband processing IC (IC400). The baseband processing IC (IC400) performs the overall baseband processing of video and audio signals with a single chip IC containing the various scaler functions (supporting the multiple format outputs), various OSD functions, PLL function (54 MHz 74 MHz) and CPU. The baseband processing IC (IC400) provides the follow­ing outputs:
. HD/SD-SDI (digital): To TX-129 board . HD/SD Component (analog): To JK-81 board . Composite (analog): To JK-84 board . S-Video (analog): To JK-84 board . LCD signal (digital): To IF-1072 board

The input/output signals of the baseband processing IC (IC400) are the following signals:
. MPEG encoder/decoder I/F signal (digital): To IC901 . Audio I/F signal (digital): To IC804
PAM memory (IC700, IC701). Peripheral circuits of the built-in CPU are FLASH ROM (IC603) and SDRAM (IC607). The baseband processing IC (IC400) is controlled by the system controller (IC1600). The LCD driver IC, SDI Co­pro, the audio system and the power save control of the output systems are controlled by the built-in CPU inside IC400.
4. Media Recording and Playback
DPR-289A board
Output from the baseband processing IC (IC400) is input into the MPEG encoder/decoder (IC901). The MPEG encoder/decoder (IC901) is the single-chip MPEG Codec IC that encodes and decodes both the high­quality HD video signal and audio signal in real-time. It has various interfaces with signals such as MPEG video, video input/output, MPEG audio, audio input/output, bit stream input/output, and interface with the host. IC901 output is then input into LSI (IC900) for AVIT signal processing. LSI (IC900) for AVIT signal processing contains the built­in CPU and has interfaces for DDR2 SDRAM memory (IC1000, IC1001), PCI bus, PCI-Express bus, I/O for IC901, and serial communication with system controller (IC1600). IC900 is also connected to the NOR-type Flash ROM (IC1100) to read the CPU program in the IC900 during initial startup. LSI (IC900) for AVIT signal processing is controlled by the system controller (IC1600), in the same way as other main devices, and provides the following types of func­tions: video/audio stream control, access to the SxS memory card, mass storage operations when connected to USB and HDV device controls when connected to i-LINK.
Explanation of peripheral devices <SxS memory card slot>
Two memory card slot boards (EC-63) are connected to the dual channel PCI-Express signals coming from IC900 through a 0.5 mm pitch, 30-pin fine coaxial cables con­nected to CN1300 and CN1301. Furthermore, dual channel USB host signals output from USB host controller (IC1302) are connect to the EC-63 board through fine coaxial cables just as with the PCI­Express signals. IC1302 is controlled by PCI bus from IC900.
<USB device controller>
USB device signal output from USB device controller (IC1101) is connected to output board (JK-81) through the both-sided flexible board (HN-347) from CN1805 connec­tor, and then it is connected to USB Mini-B connector (CN6) on the JK-81 board. IC1101 is controlled by the dedicated bus from IC900. If there is no USB connection, the power supply for IC1101 drops off.
<i-Link controller >
The i-Link signal output from the i-Link controller (IC1200) passes through the both-sided flexible board (HN-337) from the CN1803 connector. Then, the signal is sent from CN3 on HN-337 to the i-Link connector board (CN-3050) through the shielded wire, and connected to the 4 Pin i-Link connector (CN3) on the CN-3050 board. IC1200 is controlled by the PCI bus from IC900.

. Audio signal from the built-in microphone on the MA-
164 board is input to the balanced input amplifier IC101 and IC201 of this board. Output of the balanced amplifi­er is connected to the analog switch (IC105, IC205) for switching between [INT/EXT].
. The DC-DC converter (IC1, Q1) for microphone power
+48 V is built-in, and when EXT MIC +48 V is going to
be supplied, the EXT MIC +48 V is supplied by the switch (Q301, Q302, Q321 and Q322).
. The audio input signals from MIC and LINE are input to
a common circuit that receives both of the MIC input level (_8 dBu to _65 dBu) and the LINE input level (+4 dBu). The input attenuator is inserted in the circuit switch (Q103 to Q105, Q203 to Q205) as required. This audio input signal is received by the balanced input amplifier (IC102, IC202) that performs amplification of 0/+12 dB and switching (Q110, Q111, Q210, Q211) in accordance with the level that is set by INPUT TRIM. After that, the audio signal is connected to the [INT/ EXT] switch (IC105, IC205).
. The [INT/EXT] switch (IC105, IC205) performs not only
the INT/EXT switching but also performs the input channel mode selection [CH1/ (CH1/CH2)].

level adjustment is converted to the digital signal with the ADC. The digital signal receives the audio level control processing from the DSP. After the audio signal receives the [Wind Filter] (on/off) processing, the digital signal is output for audio recording. Playback output (including EE) is the digital signal that is connected to Audio Codec where it is converted to the analog signal with DAC and output to the ASW-66 board. Furthermore, the audio signal that is processed for audio monitoring in the ASW-66 board is connected to the headphones amplifier and speaker amplifier through the monitor level control from the AUX input of IC800.
. C-PLD (IC804)
After the digital signal output signal from the Audio Codec is amplified by +12 dB, it is supplied to the Display Block (T-one). C-PLD (IC804) also receives the playback output signal from the Display Block. The playback system selects CH1/CH2 or CH3/CH4, connects EE, and connects TEST TONE from the Display Block depending on the data. Furthermore, C-PLD divides the clock signal that is supplied from the Display Block to Audio Codec.
. Serial control
The I2C control from Display Block (T-one) selects either IC800 or IC801 for the target with I2C MPX and sets the register of IC800 or IC801.
HN-337 flexible board
It relays the audio signal from the DPR-289A board to the ASW-66 board.
ASW-66 board (Audio block)
. Analog output from the DPR-289A board Audio Codec
is buffered by IC103 and is output to the A/V connector after passing through the audio MUTE control.
. Analog output from DAC on the DPR-289A board re-
enters into the AUX input of the DPR-289A board AUDIO CODEC after passing through the monitor selector/mixer (IC100, IC101, IC102), and becomes the monitor signal.
. Serial control
I2C control signal from Display Block (T-one) is output at GPI, and performs the switching between MONITOR [CH1/CH2] / [CH1+CH2] / [CH1] / [CH2] for CH1 and CH2 respectively, and at the same time controls the BEEP on/off.
JK-84 board (Audio block)
This is the connector board. The audio output from the ASW-66 board is connected to RCA PIN connector.
HP-144 board (Audio block)
The headphones output signal is connected to the head­phones jack of the DPR-289A board. The headphones output is muted by the MUTE (Q1, Q2).

6. System Control
DPR-289A board
The 32-bit RISC CPU (ARM) with ARM core is built-in as the system controller (IC1600). It has the peripheral interface functions of SDRAM, USB, SCI, and I2C. It operates on a 27 MHz clock (X1600). FLASH ROM (IC1603), SDRAM (IC1604), and EE­PROM (IC1703) are mounted as the peripheral ICs. It performs the system control through serial communica­tion with IC314 of the camera block system, IC400 of the video signal system, and IC900 of the media recording/ playback system.
1-8
PMW-EX3
Main functions of the system controller and peripherals
(1) Reading operation switch information
Reading the switch information and the LED control are performed by I2C bus communication with each sub-microprocessor.
. Handle switch: IC100 on the KSW-54 board . Inside panel front switch: IC601 on the SWC-48
board
. Rear panel switch: IC106 on the ASW-66 board . Power supply switch: IC1001 on the RE-261 board
(2) Watch IC (RTC) control The watch IC (IC50) is built onto the AU-318 board. The watch IC (IC50) is backed up by a lithium coin battery, and the current time is read or set via IC601 on the SWC-48 board.
(3) Infrared remote control demodulation The RM-214 board has an IC (IC1) for infrared remote control signal demodulation, and it receives the command codes via IC100 on the KSW-54 board.
(4) Info-Battery communication The Info-Battery of SM bus specifications is supported. The serial terminal of the battery connector is connected to IC1001 on the RE-261 board. This IC1001 reads the battery authentication, battery type, remaining power, and other information and send them to the system controller via I2C bus communication.
(5) Power supply voltage detection The power supply voltage at the DC IN connector is measured by the A/D port on IC1001 on the RE-261 board, and it is posted to the system controller as the input voltage value.
(6) Power system control IC1001 on the RE-261 board checks that the power switch on the PMW-EX1 is turned ON, and turns on the system controller of IC1600. After that, it controls the power for each circuit block according to the system controller. The system controller controls the respective power supply systems in the RE-260 and RE-261 boards according to the operation mode of the device, via the power supply u­processor on the RE-261 board. By turning off the power systems to unnecessary circuits blocks, power can be saved.
(7) 700P communication The serial communication driver (IC803) is mounted on the TX-129 board. Serial communication with the remote control unit con­nected to the REMOTE connector is performed.
7. SDI/GENLOCK/TC IN/TC OUT
TX-129 board
(1) SDI output This board receives the parallel video signal with FPGA (IC100) and IC500 and outputs the SDI signal. Furthermore, it performs audio or timecode embedding. The video and audio signals are supplied from CN400 on the DPR-289A board to CN100 on the TX-129 board with a 0.4 mm pitch, 40-pin fine coaxial cable. The power voltages are supplied from CN401 on the DPR­289A board to CN700 on the TX-129 board with a 15-pin harness. Output SDI signals are supplied to CN500. Output SDI signals are then supplied from CN500 to the coaxial connector via the mini coaxial connector and mini coaxial cable. The PLL circuit is used to reduce jitter of the HD-SDI clock signal. The FPGA (IC100) is controlled by IC400 on the DPR­289A board through 4-line serial communication. The FPGA program is stored in the IC203 ROM, and JTAG can be used to overwrite the data from IC1600 on the DPR-289A board. When not using SDI, the power to cable driver inside IC500 is turned off.
(2) GENLOCK In IC902, sync signal separation is performed for GNE­LOCK. The separated sync signal enters IC400 on the DPR-289A board where phase is compared by the internal counter of IC400 and by IC521 to control the VCXO (X500).
(3) TC IN/TC OUT IC900, IC901, and IC907 reshape the waveform of the time code connected to the TC IN connector and input it to IC100. IC903 is the external output circuit for the time code OUT signal, which outputs the signal to the TC OUT connector. They communicate with the FPGA (IC100) through the 4­line serial interface on the DPR-289A board.

8. Power supply system
RE-260/261 board
This board is comprised of the power supply circuit and the POWER SUPPLY MICON (power supply u-processor: IC1001 on the RE-261 board). However, part of the low-voltage power supply is mounted on the DPR-289A board.
(1) Input power supply (UNREG) system operations When the UNREG power is input, the EVER power state is established. In this state, the ON/OFF state of the Power switch can be recognized. If the POWER SUPPLY MICON (power supply u­processor: IC1001) recognizes that Power switch is ON, the power is turned on for the system control system and the POWER SUPPLY MICON (power supply u-processor: IC1001) controls the power supply for each block accord­ing to the system controller (DPR-289A board: IC1600). The normal value for the input power supply (UNREG) is in the range of about +10.5 V to +18 V.
. Battery/EXT-DC select
Input power comes in two systems: Battery and EXT­DC. This switch monitors the input voltage for each input and automatically switches the circuit settings with priority given to EXT-DC.
. Input overvoltage protection
If the voltage is too high in the UNREG power supply, the overvoltage protection circuit starts operating around the set value of +17.9 V, and the camera shuts down. When the input power supply voltage to this circuit becomes less than +17.9 V, the power supply immedi­ately switches on with automatic recovery.
. Input low-voltage protection
If the voltage is too low in the UNREG power supply, the low-voltage protection circuit starts operating around the set value of +10.5 V according to the control by the POWER SUPPLY MICON (power supply u-processor: IC1001), and the camera shuts down. When the input power supply voltage becomes higher than +10.5 V, the power supply immediately switches on with automatic recovery according to the control by the POWER SUPPLY MICON (power supply u-processor: IC1001).
. Overcurrent detection
The overcurrent detection circuit is comprised of IC308 on the RE-260 board. The setting value is approximately
4.3 (A). Even after clearing IC308 after overcurrent detection, automatic recovery is not performed and the power must be turned on again.
1-10
. Power supply reverse connection protection
If the input power has reverse voltage, Q301 on the RE­260 board is immediately turned off and UNREG power is stopped on the GND side, and the protection function works.
(2) DC/DC converter function The power supply output is divided into 25 systems, which are separated into four blocks as seen below.
. CMOS/camera block system, 7 systems
(+4.6 V, +3.1 V, UNREG, etc.)
. Audio/video signal system, 7 systems
(+13.5 V, _4.6 V, +4.6 V, etc.)
. System controller system, 5 systems
(+4.6 V, +3.1 V, +2.5 V, etc.)
. Media recording/playback system, 6 systems
(+3.1 V, +2.5 V, +1.8 V, etc.)
The sequence control (powering up and powering down) for the power supply system is controlled by the POW­ER SUPPLY MICON (power supply u-processor: IC1001) for the respective power supply blocks of each block. By turning off the power for each block according to the operation mode (camera mode or media mode), the optimal power consumption for each operation is achieved.
. Short-circuit protection for each power supply system
The circuit settings monitor each output voltage or current for each power supply system and operate the protection circuits per block. Even after the protection circuit is cleared, automatic recovery is not performed and the power must be turned on again. Even after short-circuit is cleared, the protection circuit does not recover automatically and the power must be turned on again.
Battery information functions
. Battery authentication function
The authentication function checks whether the battery is of the specified type. This helps prevent one cause of major accidents when using batteries as a power supply. If the attached batter is not the specified type of batter, the camera immediately turns off.
. Battery Info function
In an intelligent (specified) battery, the battery can monitor information, such as how many times the battery has been recycled or the internal temperature for the battery. This helps provide detailed information about the battery, including whether the battery is damaged or how long the life is, in order to provide optimal operations.

m . Be sure to use the unleaded solder for the printed circuit
board printed with the lead free mark.
. The unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40 dC
higher than the ordinary solder, therefore, it is recom­mended to use the soldering iron having a temperature regulator.
. The ordinary soldering iron can be used but the iron tip

1-9. Replacing the Flexible Card Wires

n
The flat cables, flexible card wires and boards are used to connect between the following boards. Life of flexible card wire will be significantly shortened if it is folded. Be very careful not to fold the flat cables, flexible card wires and boards. The two types of different shape connectors are used in this unit. Because the direction of the flat cables, flexible card wires and boards are different depending on the shape of the connector, be careful when connecting the flat cables, flexible card wires and boards.
Disconnecting
1. Turn off the power.
2. Slide or lift up the portion A in the direction of the arrow to unlock and pull out the flexible card wire.
