11AK03 /VESTEL 5544/5417 CHASSIS SERVICE NOTES

#G This Chassis is fairly conventional with no nasty suprises.
It is software controlled via an I2C bus system,modular
construction making servicing easy if extension cards are used,
difficult if not. A switch mode power supply isolates the Mains
input from the user electronics.

#1 AUDIO STAGES
This is a dual module solution where the Nicam module is mounted
on the Audio path module. The Audio module is a Quasi parallel
circuit with IC301 a mono Fm sound detector. The output from
IC301 passes to IC307 a 3 input audio multiplexer, the output
from IC307 goes to IC308 volume control and tone control. IC308
is controlled by the I2C bus, output from IC308 goes to IC309
Audio output stage. IC305/306 are Op amp buffers with filtering,
which buffers Audio signals from the Nicam module and feeds them
to audio multiplexer IC307. The audio select on IC307 is via
TR301/302 and is controlled from the Nicam panel should a mono
or stereo signal be detected. (see section 9 for Nicam section).

NO AUDIO OUTPUT
Check supply lines to all devices +28V to IC309 and +12V to
others. Check with scope signal path. If audio into IC308 and
not coming out, check the I2C bus. It is possible that an I2C bus
contention not connected with IC308 has happened and the fault
could be else where.

NO AUDIO OUTPUT IC309 DESTROYED OR GETTING HOT.
Check for oscillation on the output pins, if both channels are
oscillating check C373, if one channel is oscillating check Zobel
components on faulty channel ie C361 & R338/ C360 & R339.

LOW LEVEL MONO SOUND (Nicam ok).
Check alignment if YL302.

ONE CHANNEL MISSING (Probably Nicam).
Check signal paths with scope.


#2 COLOUR DECODER (CHROMA PATH).
Composite video is fed to IC401 pin 14, and chroma exits via
pin 5, to IC402 pin 30, chroma is then processed and exits IC402
as B-Y and R-Y on pins 27 & 26, to IC403 a digital delay line via
pins 9 & 12. The delayed chroma outputs from pins 10 & 11 back
to IC402 via pins 21 & 22. The chroma is then fed to the Crt
panel as RGB from pins 13, 15 & 17. Text and OSD data is fed into
IC402 via pins 14, 16 & 18.

NO CHROMA. (OSD & TEXT OK).


#3 CRT BASE

#4 HORIZONTAL OUTPUT

#5 I.F JUNGLE

#6 KEYPAD/IR MODULE
#7 LUMA PATH

#8 MICROCONTROLLER

#9 NICAM MODULE
This is a conventional Nicam module, mounted on the Audio
module. This panel is mixed technology utilising Surface mounted
and conventional components.
Protocol and switching is via the I2C bus.
Intercarrier sound is fed to pin 3 IC302 via Block filter L308
and TR303 & TR304, the signal is then passed through low pass
filters via pins 6/7 and 5/8 IC302 and emerges as serial data
from pin 15 IC302. The serial data is further processed in IC 303
going in via pin 21 and out in bus form to IC304. The audio comes
out of IC304 from pins 6/8 to connector PL305 pins 1/3.

NO AUDIO (Muted Sound) may output Mono audio sometimes depending
upon bus conditions,ie method of comming out of standby.
Check data pulses from Pin 15 IC302 if missing, check DC
voltage pin 1 IC302 if at 0V or 5V or oscillating,fit
small capacitor approx 4 to 7pf between pins 17 & 18 IC303,
this should give a DC voltage of approx 2.5v at pin 1 IC302,
it may be necessary to select this capacitor to give 2.5v.

SWITCHES TO MONO ON SOME PICTURE SCENES OR CHANNEL CHANGES.
Check alignment of VL301, no Video should be present on 6 mhz
carrier from pin 14 IC301

MONO AUDIO (Red osd, cannot switch to Stereo with handset, also
noisy PLL line).
X301 (13.104Mhz) goes high in Frequency.10 April 1995



#10 POWER SUPPLY.
This psu is a conventional switched mode type using a TDA4601
SIL, the circuit being virtually identical to the Indiana
100/200.

Current avaliable. HT 112V 450 m/a at Max beam current.
LT 12V 530 m/a (11 m/a standby).
Vertical supply 26V 180 m/a
Audio supply 26V 575 m/a full volume
Logic supply 8V 235 m/a
