SAFETY INFORMATION
1. Parts that have special safety characteristics are identified by the symbol on schematics or by special notes in the part lists. Use only replacement parts that have critical characteristics recommended by the manufacturer. 2. Make leakage current or resistance measurements to determine that exposed parts are acceptably insulated from the supply circuit before returning the unit to the customer. Use the following checks to perform these measurements: A. Leakage Current Hot Check: With the unit completely assembled, plug the AC line cord directly into a 120V AC outlet. (Do not use an isolation transformer during this test.) Use a leakage current tester or a metering system that complies with American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C101.1 "Leakage Current for Appliances" and Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 1492 (71). With the unit's AC switch first in the ON position and then in the OFF position, measure from a known earth ground (metal water pipe, conduit, etc.) to all exposed metal parts of the unit (antennas, handle bracket, metal cabinet, screw-heads, metallic overlays, control shafts, etc.), especially any exposed metal parts that offer an electrical return path to the chassis. Any current measured must not exceed 0.5 milliamp. Reverse the unit's power cord plug in the outlet and repeat the test. ANY MEASUREMENTS NOT WITHIN THE LIMITS SPECIFIED HEREIN INDICATE A POTENTIAL SHOCK HAZARD THAT MUST BE ELIMINATED BEFORE RETURNING THE UNIT TO THE CUSTOMER. B. Insulation Resistance Test Cold Check: (1) Unplug the power supply and connect a jumper wire between the two prongs of the plug. (2) Turn on the power switch of the unit. (3) Measure the resistance with an ohmmeter between the jumpered AC plug and each exposed metallic cabinet part on the unit. When the exposed metallic part has a return path to the chassis, the reading should be between 1 and 5.2M . When there is no return path to the chassis, the reading must be "infinite". If it is not within the limits specified, there is the possibility of a shock hazard, and the unit must be repaired and rechecked before it is returned to the customer.

ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE SENSITIVE (ESDS) DEVICE HANDLING
This unit contains ESDS devices. We recommend the following precautions when repairing, replacing or transporting ESDS devices: · Perform work at an electrically grounded work station. · Wear wrist straps that connect to the station or heel straps that connect to conductive floor mats. · Avoid touching the leads or contacts of ESDS devices or PC boards even if properly grounded. Handle boards by the edges only. · Transport or store ESDS devices in ESD protective bags, bins, or totes. Do not insert unprotected devices into materials such as plastic, polystyrene foam, clear plastic bags, bubble wrap or plastic trays.

CD TERMS
Basic Terms
Access: See track access. Access Time: The length of time required to change tracks. CD Mechanism: The mechanical assembly of components used to read information off of the CD. It contains the optical pickup, sled assembly, disc motor, sled motor, and spindle. Disc Motor: The motor which spins the disc. Focus Actuator: The magnet and coil assembly that moves the optical pickup's lens up and down. Laser: A semiconductor light source similar to an LED that is used to read the data off of a CD. When the laser is turned on it can be seen as a red glow inside the lens. Laser Pickup: The portion of the CD mechanism that contains the laser diode, lens, focus and tracking actuators, and photodetector diodes. Mechanism: see CD Mechanism. Optical Pickup: See Laser Pickup. Playability: The extent to which a player can successfully play less than perfect discs. Playability is measured with special test discs (playability discs) that contain certain types of defects and problems. Playability Disc: A disc which contains a calibrated defect or problem. These include eccentricity, warp, scratch, void, black dot, and fingerprints. Parking: When the sled is moved to the innermost position on the disc. This is done before (if necessary) and after playing a disc. Sled: The portion of the CD mechanism that moves inside to outside to position the optical pickup near the desired track. Sled Motor: The motor which moves the sled back and forth. Spindle: The hub that the disc sits on. Track Access: The process of moving from one track on a disc to a different track. Tracking Actuator: The magnet and coil assembly that moves the optical pickup's lens inside and out.

Playability Terms
Dropout: A momentary loss of the audio signal, usually caused by a large scratch or other optical defect.

7

CD TERMS
Eccentricity: The extent to which the hole in the middle of the disc is not located in the geometric center. In other words, the amount that the disc moves in and out as it rotates. Eccentricity is measured as the distance between the center of the hole and the center of the disc (as determined by the spiral tracks). Mistracking: When a CD player fails to play the disc in a continuous manner. This may be caused by a large enough optical defect (scratch, etc.) or by vibration. Optical Defect: A defect on the surface of the disc which adversely affects the reading of information by the laser pickup. There are four basic types of optical defects: voids, black dots, fingerprints, and scratches. Skipping: When a CD mistracks backwards and gets caught in an "endless loop". This is usually caused by a large scratch or other optical defect. Warp: The extent to which the surface of the disc is not parallel to the seating plane of the disc (at the center). In other words, the amount that the disc wobbles up and down. Warp is measured as the vertical deviation between the seating plane and the particular point on the disc.

Alignment Terms
CD Alignment: The process of adjusting a CD player for optimum performance, particularly with respect to its playability. Free Run Frequency: The VCO frequency in the absence of any signal from the disc. Accurate frequency adjustment is required for the player to be able to read data off the disc. VCO misalignment results in poor track access and longer access times. Tracking Offset: The DC offset voltage present at the output of the tracking servo in the absence of any input signal. For best results, the offset should be adjusted near 0 to keep the laser positioned in the center of the track. Negative offset causes the laser to be positioned towards the inside of the track. Misalignment of this parameter can cause the player to skip or mistrack when playing a dirty or "black dot" disc, especially if the disc is also eccentric. Scratches and voids may also cause the problem. Focus Offset: The DC offset voltage present at the output of the focus servo in the absence of any input signal. For best results, the offset should be adjusted near 0 to keep the laser exactly in focus. Misalignment of this parameter usually causes dropouts when playing a dirty or "black dot" disc, especially if the disc is also warped. Scratches may also cause problems. Note that on the CD5, the focus offset is preset and the adjustment pot is not loaded, however, there is a spot on the PCB for it. E-F Balance: The DC offset that results from driving both the E and the F elements of the photodetector with equal signals. For best results, the offset should be adjusted near 0 to keep the laser positioned in the center of the track. As with track offset, negative offset causes the laser to be positioned towards the inside of the track. Misalignment of this parameter can cause any number of problems including: 1. Poor or slow track access even when playing a good disc, and 2. Skipping or mistracking when playing a scratched or void disc, especially if the disc is also eccentric.

8

CD TERMS
Tracking Gain: The overall loop gain of the tracking servo. This controls how tightly the laser is held in the center of the track. If the gain is too low, the player will have trouble with vibration and eccentric discs, especially during track access. If the gain is too high the player will have skips or mistracking with voids and scratches. Proper alignment is a compromise between these two performance parameters. Focus Gain: The overall loop gain of the focus servo. This controls how tightly the laser is held in focus. If the gain is too low, the player will have trouble with vibration and warped discs, especially during track access. If the gain is too high the player will have skips or mistracking with black dots and scratches. Proper alignment is a compromise between these two performance parameters.

Technical Terms
RFSM: RF SUM. The amplified A+B+C+D signal from the laser pickup. Eye Pattern: The pattern displayed on an oscilloscope when monitoring the RFSM test point. Jitter: The extent to which the zero crossings of the eye pattern occur at other than their ideal times. Focusing: Before a disc can be played, the player must focus the CD mechanism by changing the distance between the lens and the surface of the disc. This must occur before the disc can start rotating. If the player fails to achieve focus, it will retry. This occurs four times in the CD5 before it "gives up" and indicates "no disc" by lighting up the disc icon in the display. TOC: Table Of Contents. The innermost area on the disc where track and time information is stored. When a new disc is inserted into a player (i.e. when the door switch is opened), it must read the TOC before the first track can be played. CIRC: Cross Interleave Reed-Solomon Coding: The error detection and correction scheme used on CDs to provide immunity to small scratches, etc. CLV: Constant Linear Velocity. CD players rotate the disc at a constant linear velocity of 1.25 M/S. The angular velocity changes from about 500 RPM down to 200 RPM as the disc plays from beginning (inside) to end (outside). EFM: Eight-to-Fourteen-Modulation. The format in which the digital data is recorded on the CD. Photo Diode: The receiving element that translates the modulated light beam into electrical signals. Subcode Q data: The track and time information read off the CD. Three Beam System: The most common system for providing focus and tracking error signals for the respective servos. A three beam system uses a six element photo diode array, with the elements designated A through F. The A, B, C, and D elements are located in the center and read the information as well as supply the focus error signal. The E and F elements are located on either side and provide the tracking error signal.

THEORY OF OPERATION
Overview
The Lifestyle® Model 5 music center is a self-contained CD player, AM/FM tuner, preamplifier, and control center for use with Bose® powered speaker systems. In addition to the two internal sources (CD and tuner), it also allows for up to three external devices to be connected (i.e. AUX, VIDEO, and TAPE). It uses a Radio Frequency (RF) remote control that allows the unit to be operated from different rooms within a house without the need for a line-of-sight path back to the console. The remote control commands for the external sources are translated and passed to the serial data output jack. With the CE-I accessory device this data can be converted to Infrared (IR) for use with many conventional audio devices.

Power Supply
The unit is powered by an external 12VAC power supply capable of delivering 1.2 amps rms. Dl, C2, D2, and C6 form positive and negative half-wave rectifiers respectively. Q1, Q2, Q3, and their respective components make up a discrete low dropout regulator with a nominal output voltage of 10. 2V. VR1 is the corresponding negative voltage regulator with an output of -12V. These two regulators create the bipolar supply used by all of the audio circuits. The supply is turned on and off with the unit by the control signal on J7-10. R5, D3, C9, and VR2 create an +8V regulated supply that is used by the CD servo circuits and the remote RF receiver. R6, D4, C11, and VR3 create a +5V regulated supply that is used by the main and CD microcontrollers (U402 and U505), and the CD control circuits (U501, U502, etc.). Both supplies are live at all times. R5 and R6 limit the power dissipation of their respective regulators. VR2 and VR3 normally run quite hot to the touch. R8, D6, and C13 form an unregulated supply (M+) that is used by the CD drive electronics. C14, D7, D8, and C15 form a charge pump that creates a negative high voltage. This voltage is regulated down to -24V by R9, D9, and C16. The vacuum fluorescent display (VFD) driver U403 uses this -24V to shut off segments in the display. C19 and C18 reduce the 12VAC to approximately 3Vrms. This voltage powers the display's (VFD401) heater. C16, D10, C17, and R10 provide a DC bias of -15V for the VFD heater (cathode).

Control Electronics
Main microcontroller (µC) U402 controls the audio circuits, tuner, display, and push buttons. The µC runs at a nominal frequency of 4.0MHz that is supplied by ceramic resonator X401. The µC is reset by a rising edge on pin 1 caused by R409 and C404. This occurs automatically on power-up but may be forced manually by depressing S416 (if installed). U402 communicates with U403 over a four wire serial data bus (U403, pins 15, 16, 18 and 19). The bus is updated once per millisecond. U403 latches the serial data into its outputs, driving the VFD. The VFD is a four grid multiplexed display with 16 anodes at each grid. The grids are turned on sequentially, one each millisecond. As each grid is turned on, the corresponding anodes for that grid are also turned on. This lights the desired segments. When the next grid is turned on, the anodes are changed to correspond to the desired segments under this next grid. In this way, the entire display is scanned, 1/4 at a time. The display is blanked for a brief interval in-between when one grid is turned off and the next is turned on. In this blanking interval, the push buttons are scanned to determine what keys are being pressed. This data is read in on U402, pins 12 through 15.

12

THEORY OF OPERATION
There is one main serial data bus that controls source selection IC U101, volume control IC U103, PLL frequency synthesizer U302, and EEPROM U401. The clock and data information for all of these devices is sent out on U402, pins 5 and 7. However, U401, U302, U101 and U103 each have their own chip select line. Data is sent to U302 whenever the tuner frequency is changed. During the serial data transmission, U302, pin 3 is driven high. Data is sent to U101 or U103 whenever a new source is selected or the volume is changed. At the completion of this transmission, the STRB line (J9-5) is driven high briefly. U401 is a nonvolatile EEPROM which is used for storing certain data such as tuner presets and house codes. This data is protected from loss during a power outage. U401 communicates with U402 over the main serial data bus. During communication to this chip, the chip select line (U401, pin 1) is driven high. There is another serial data bus between U402 and U505. These lines are labeled CD_READY, CD_CLK, CD_ CMD, and CD_DATA on the schematic. The bus sends commands (play, stop, etc.) to U505 and also sends track and time information to U402 so that it may be displayed. This bus is constantly in use any time "CD" is selected as the source. RR101 receives and demodulates commands from the RF remote control. R138, C130, C129, R139, and D109 remove noise and shape the pulse. U106 squares up the pulse edges and converts them to 5V logic levels. This signal is then fed to U402, pin 37. C401 prevents any glitches at this pin. In addition to the major functions mentioned above, U402 also performs several miscellaneous tasks. The bipolar power supply for the audio circuits (+1OV/-12V) is turned on and off by U402, pin 19 (power). Both supplies are turned on when this line is high (+5V), and off when it is low. The unregulated supply is monitored by C414, R407, and R408. In the event of a power failure, U402 will shut down the system gracefully. There are three independent muting circuits: Mute A, Mute B, and Power-on Mute. Mute A and Mute B are controllable from the remote, and allows the A and B outputs to be controlled independently. The Power-on Mute is used only during power-up (when the bipolar supply is turned on) to prevent pops and clicks. When an external source is selected (AUX, VIDEO, or TAPE), the transport commands (FF, FR, etc.) are passed through the serial data jack via Q401 and its associated circuitry.

Audio Circuits
There are two internal audio sources (CD and Tuner) and three external sources (AUX, VIDEO, and TAPE). All of the sources are routed to U101. R101-106 and R201-206 provide level matching for the different input sources. D101-106, D201-206, C101-103, and C201-203 provide static protection on the inputs. U101 selects 1 of the 5 input sources, and routes it to its output on pins 5 and 9 (left), and pins 20 and 24 (right). One half of U102 (pins 1-3 and 12-14) provides gain and buffering for the input signal. The buffered output is routed to U103 and to the FIXED output on J103. U103 consists of two sections. The first section attenuates the signal from 0 to 70dB in 10dB steps. The output of the first section is buffered by the other half of U102 (pins 5-7 and 8-10) and is fed to the second section. The second section attenuates the signal in 1dB steps. The two sections together provide smooth attenuation from 0 to 80dB in 1dB steps.

13

THEORY OF OPERATION
U103's output signal is buffered by U105, and is fed to the A and B outputs. These outputs are independently mutable through transistors Q103-106 and Q203-206. Each pair of transistors provides approximately 80dB of attenuation when muted. These mute transistors are controlled by the signals on J9-7 and J9-8. U103's output signal is also routed to headphone amplifier U104. This provides gain and buffers the signal in order to drive a low impedance load. When the headphones are inserted into J104, the control signal on J105-3 causes the A speaker output to be muted. The TAPE output jack functions like the FIXED output does. There is one exception. The TAPE output is shut off whenever "TAPE" is selected as the source. This prevents feedback through the TAPE deck if it was placed in "Record" while "TAPE" was selected as the source. This is accomplished by feeding the FIXED level output signal from U102, pins 1 and 14 back into U101. A control signal from U402 allows U101 to pass this signal to its outputs on pins 5 and 17, except when "TAPE" is selected as a source. The FIXED, TAPE, and headphone outputs all have a single mute transistor which is used to prevent pops and clicks during power-up and power-down. These transistors are all controlled by the signal on J9-6. Each transistor provides about 40dB of attenuation when the muting is switched on.

CD Player
The CD circuitry consists of six major sections: Analog signal processor (ASP) U501, digital signal processor (DSP) U502, digital to analog converter (D/A) U506, CD microcontroller (µC) U505, power drivers U503 and U504, and the CD mechanism. U501 contains the RF amplifier and servo control circuits. U502 performs EFM demodulation, CIRC decoding, and outputs the digital audio to U506. It also extracts the subcode Q information (track #, time, etc.) and controls U501 during track access. U505 receives and interprets the subcode Q data from U502 and sends it along to U402. It also issues commands to U502 for track access, and controls all operations of the CD circuitry. U501 receives its input signal (through P501) from the mechanism's photo diode pickup. The A, B, C, and D inputs are added together and amplified. The RF amplifier output appears on RFSM (U501, pin 72 ). This signal is the familiar "eye pattern." This signal is sent to EFMIN on U502, Pin 8 where it is sliced for EFM demodulation. The inverted and non-inverted sliced outputs appear on the EFMO and EFMO~ lines (U502, pins 6 and 7) . These signals are lowpassed and subtracted and the output appears on SLCO (U501, pin 53). This signal supplies the DC bias for the RFSM signal. This signal is then sent to the slicer for slice level control. The RFSM signal is peak-detected and compared to a reference to determine if there is a signal being received back from the disc. The output appears on DRF (U501, pin 40 ). This signal is used by U505 to determine if the lens is in focus. The envelope of the RFSM signal is also used in determining when the laser crosses a track boundary during track access. The HFL signal (U501, pin 48) conveys this information to U502. The A+C signal is subtracted from the B+D signal. This produces the focus error signal FEAO (U501, pin 26 ). The focus gain is adjusted by R527. This signal is amplified and filtered by the focus servo amplifier (inside U501). It then appears as an output at FDO (U501, pin 22). The FDO signal is fed to U503. U503 generates the complementary outputs (pins 11 and 14) that are used to actuate the focus coil (P502, pins 5 and 8).

14

THEORY OF OPERATION
The E and F signals are amplified and subtracted. This produces the tracking error signal TEAO (U501, pin 7 ). The F channel's gain is adjusted by E-F balance potentiometer R506. The TEAO signal is used by the anti-shock circuit, the track jump detection circuit, and the tracking servo. The track jump detection output is sent to U502 on the TES line (U501, pin 47). R510, which is connected to TPA+ (U501, pin 13 ), adjusts the tracking gain. This signal is amplified and filtered. It then appears as an output on TPAO (U501, pin 15). R511 adjusts the tracking offset . The TPAO signal is further amplified and filtered. It then appears as an output on TDO (U501, pin 21). This signal is fed to U503. U503 generates the complementary outputs (U503) that are used to actuate the tracking coil (P502, pins 6 and 7). The TDO signal is also used as the input for the sled servo. This signal is filtered and fed to the sled servo amplifier on SLEQ (U501, pin 20). This signal is amplified and is then added to the FEED signals from U505. The result appears on SLDO (U501, pin 33). This signal is fed to U504. U504 generates the complementary outputs (pins 11 and 14) that are used to drive the sled motor (P503, pins 5 and 6). The Constant Linear Velocity (CLV) servo is regulated by comparing the playback speed to a FIXED reference frequency in U502. The error signal appears at U502, pins 10 and 11 (CLV+ and CLV-). These signals are subtracted and the difference appears on SPD (U501, pin 29). The SPD signal is filtered and amplified. It then appears at the output on SPDO (U501, pin 31). This signal is fed to U504. U504 generates the complementary outputs (pins 3 and 6) that are used to drive the disc motor (P503, pins 1 and 2). U501 regulates the laser power by monitoring the MD input (P502-3). This signal is compared to a reference to generate the proper drive signal on LDD (U501, pin 74). This signal biases Q501. Q501 drives the laser diode output LD (P502-1). U501's main DC reference voltage is Vref3 which appears on pin 9. This voltage is nominally 4V. The VCO is the final function contained in U501. The VCO is used by U502 for EFM demodulation. The PDO output signal (U502, pin 4) is filtered and amplified by U501. In turn, this output appears on VCOC (U501, pin 59) This is the VCO control voltage input. The nominal VCO free-run frequency is 8.64MHz and is set by R558. The VCO also requires a 16.9344MHz clock input from U502. This input appears on CLK (U501, pin 62). The VCO output appears at VCOO (U501, pin 60). This signal is buffered by U502. The buffered output appears on AO (U502, pin 2). The VCO output is divided by 2 in U502. In turn, its output appears on PCK (U502, pin 18), which is 4.32MHz. The DSP clock is derived from a 16.9344MHz crystal oscillator (X501). However, this oscillator is normally turned off by U505. It is only switched on during focusing and when a disc is playing. U502 receives its EFM input from U501 on EFMIN (pin 8). This signal is sliced, EFM demodulated, and CIRC decoded. The digital audio output signal is sent serially to U506 on the LRCLK, DFOUT and DACLK lines (U502, pins 33, 35, and 36). U502 receives servo control commands from U505 on the serial bus (U502, pins 51, 53 and 54). These commands are translated to appropriate control signals for U501 for focusing, disc start, disc stop, disc braking, and track jumps. The focus servo is controlled by the FOCS and FST outputs. The CLV servo is controlled through the CLV+ and CLV- lines. The tracking servo is controlled by the TOFF, TGL, and THLD outputs. Track jumps are created by signals on the JP+ and JP- lines. Track jump detection is based on signals from U501 on the HFL and TES inputs. 15

THEORY OF OPERATION
U505's oscillator is obtained from a 4MHz ceramic resonator (X502). U505 is reset by a rising edge on pin 1 that is caused by R573 and C574. This occurs automatically on power-up, but may be forced manually by depressing S502 (if installed). U505 communicates with U502 on a serial bus (U502, pins 50 through 54). U505 sends servo commands for focusing and track access to U502. U502 sends subcode Q data to U505 which extracts track, time and table of contents information from it. The time and track data is formatted, and is sent to U402 on a serial bus (U505, pins 11-13). During track access, U505 controls the sled motor directly using the FEED+ and FEED- lines (U505, pins 21 and 22). It also directly controls the laser U503 and VCO using the LASER~ line (U505, pin 9). When the laser is turned on, the VCO and U503 are enabled, otherwise they are turned off. U505 can also enable and disable U504 with the MOTOR_EN line (U505, pin 20). U506 (D/A converter) performs 8x oversampling and digital filtering. It then converts the digital audio into left and right stereo outputs. D/A reference voltages are obtained from zener diode D504. U506's analog outputs are buffered by one-half of U507 (pins 5-7 and 8-10). The buffered signal is lowpass filtered by the other half of U507. This removes any residual out-ofband digital noise. The recovered audio is then routed to U101.

Tuner
The FM antenna signal is routed through F connector J301 and enters the FM front end module. This contains a tuned RF amplifier, FM local oscillator, and a mixer. The IF output signal appears on pin 4 (front end) and passes through 10.7MHz ceramic filter CF302. The filter's output is amplified by the IF gain stage. This stage consists of Q307, Q308 and their associated components. The signal is then passed through a second ceramic filter, CF303, a second gain stage (Q309, Q310, etc.) and a third ceramic filter, CF304. CF304's output signal is sent to the main tuner IC, U301. This device contains the FM detector, FM stereo MPX decoder, stop level detection, as well as most of the AM circuitry (see below). U301 further amplifies the IF signal, and then performs FM detection. This detection uses a double tuned quadrature detector formed by T304 and T305. T305 is adjusted for FM center frequency by adjusting it for 0VDC between the AFC terminal (U301, pin 4) and the Vreg terminal (U301, pin 28). T304 is adjusted for minimum distortion (A few iterations may be required because these two adjustments are dependent on one another). The recovered audio appears on U301, pin 8. C313 and its associated components filter the recovered audio and feed it back into U301, pin 9. U301 performs the FM stereo MPX decoding. When you select FM, the decoded L/R channel signals are sent out on pins 14 and 15. The resistance between pin 12 and ground controls the separation. 456kHz ceramic resonator CF301 controls the PLL decoder. The PLL loop filter components are connected to pin 11. Potentiometer R334, which is connected to pin 30, sets the FM stop level to 33dBf (nominal). C304, R304, C307, and R309 perform FM de-emphasis. Q301, Q302 and their associated components buffer the signals. MPX filters T301 and T302 remove any unwanted out-of-band signals before sending them to U101. The AM loop antenna signal enters the unit through J301's screw terminals. The signal is then fed to AM front end module, T303. This device contains an RF tuned section and the AM local 16

THEORY OF OPERATION
oscillator tuned circuit. The tuned output appears on pin 12 and is fed to AM buffer FET Q300. The buffered output is sent to U301, pin 27. U301 contains the AM RF amplifier, mixer, IF amplifier, AM detector and AM stop level detection. Potentiometer R339, which is connected to pin 16, sets the AM stop level to 70dB uV/M (nominal). The IF output signal appears on pin 26 and is filtered by IF filter T307. The signal is then fed back into U301, pin 24 for AM detection. The AM detected output (pin 5) is filtered by C315, R316, and C314. The filtered output is fed back into U301, pin 6. Finally, it is sent to the L/R outputs (pins 14 and 15) when "AM" is selected. U302 controls the AM and FM local oscillators. U402 sets U302 so that it can select the AM or FM band and can tune to a particular frequency. The PLL reference oscillator originates from 7.2MHz crystal X301. This frequency is divided down to 400KHz (U302, pin 7). U302 divides down the local oscillator frequencies and compares them to an internal reference frequency. The error signal resulting from this comparison appears at pin 18. This error signal is integrated and filtered by Q304, Q305, and their associated components. This produces the tuning voltage which appears at Q304's collector. The tuning voltage is further filtered by R323, C326, R322, and C319. This signal is then sent to AM front end module T303, pin 14. It is used to vary the capacitance of two varactor diodes. This first diode varies the frequency of the AM local oscillator. The second tunes the AM RF input section to the desired frequency. Similarly, the tuning voltage is filtered by R330 and C333. Then it is fed to the FM front end module. The front end uses this voltage to vary the local oscillator frequency and to tune the RF input sections.

Voltmeter (input impedance > 10M) Frequency Counter Sony Disc YEDS-18 Audio Oscillator 1. PLL Free Run Frequency (VCO) 1.1 Connect the frequency counter to PCK and ground. 1.2 Simulate a closed CD door by placing an object between S501's two black posts (the CD door latch can be used). Select CD (S413). 1.3 Adjust R558 until the frequency counter reads 4.320MHz ± 20kHz. (If the adjustment is not done within four seconds, then CD must be selected again). 2. Tracking Offset Note: Remove any previously loaded test discs. This test will not work with a disc loaded. 2.1 Connect a DC voltmeter between P504 pins 2 (TDO) and 1 (Vref3). The meter should read approximately 90mVdc. 2.2 Simulate a closed CD door by placing an object between S501's two black posts (the CD door latch can be used). Select CD (S413). 2.3 After the focusing operation is completed, press ERASE (S403). The meter should change from its previous reading in step 2.1 (it will drop). If not, remove power and repeat the test. 2.4 Adjust R511 until the meter reads between -7 to +17mVdc.

CD TEST PROCEDURES
5.3 Skip back to the beginning of track 2. 5.4 Adjust R527 until the meter reads between 23.2 ± 1.5mVrms. 6. Tracking Offset Readjustment 6.1 Refer to procedure 2 and readjust if necessary. 3.4 Fingerprint: Play track 15 (75µm). Listen for at least 10 seconds.

Final CD Verification Tests
Note: Audible defects are defined as CD dropouts or skipping during play. All units must be able to pass these tests without any audible defects. 1. Warp 1.1 Insert Abex test disc TCD-732RA (or equivalent). Play track 16 (.7 mm). 1.2 Pause the CD and confirm that there are no mechanical scraping sounds. 1.3 Access track 16 again and confirm that it plays properly. 2. Eccentricity 2.1 Insert Abex test disc TCD-714R (equivalent test disc must be eccentric by 210µm). 2.2 Play track 1 (210µm). Listen for at least 4 seconds. 2.3 Access track 15 ( or furthest track on equivalent disc) and confirm that the unit plays properly. 3. Optical Defects 3.1 Insert Abex test disc TCD-725 (or equivalent). 3.2 Void: Play track 6 (1mm). Listen for at least 6 seconds. 3.3 Black dot: Play track 9 (.8mm). Listen for at least 8 seconds. 31
