3-2 Microcontrol Section
1. This monitor uses MYSON MTV212M32 CPU. It contains a 8051 8-bit CPU core, 512 bytes of RAM
used as working RAM and stack area, 32k bytes of ROM, 14-channel 8 bit PWM D/A converter, 3-
channel A/D converters for key detection saving I/O pins, internal H. sync and V. sync signals processor
providing mode detection, and an I2C bus interface. When H/V sync through D-Sub signal cable enter pin
41 and pin 42, the CPU performs frequency / polarity detection and calculate and send to H/V sync OUT.
Then CPU reads the data from EEPROM I703 and transfer to device 4841 and some DAC in CPU,
above operation takes about 500 ms.
2. There allowed MAX. 14 factory preset modes and 8 user modes. There are 11 functions, Contrast,
Brightness, H. Size, H. Position, V. Size, V. Position, Pincushion, and Trapezoid, Rotation, H. Moire, V
Moire, all controlled by OSD icon which can be adjusted by user.
3. C1570MNSL/T Communication Protocal
3.1Monitor Communication Summary
The monitor operates the communication channel in two modes, the Transmit-Only Mode and the Bi-
Directional Mode.
3.2 Transmit-Only Mode
Like DDC1 is a uni-directional channel from display to host, the device transmits data bits on the SDA pin
in response to a clock signal on the VCLK pin.
3.3Bi-Directional Mode
It is a bi-directional channel between the display and host based on I2C protocol.
In this protocol, 2 wires (SDA-serial data, SCL-serial clock) carry information between the devices


Page 10 Operation Theory
C1570MNSL/T


connected to the bus, a device that sends data on the bus is defined to be the transmitter, and a device that
receives data from the bus is defined to be the receiver. The bus must be controlled by a master device
that generates the clock (SCL), controls access to the bus and generates the START and STOP conditions,
while the monitor acts as the slave. Data on the I2C bus can be transferred at a rate up to 100KHz.
There are two communicaionts on the monitor in I2C bus.
* DDC2 mode - The Transmission from the host to the monitor which is a request by reading the EDID.
* ATE mode - The transmission from the host to the monitor which is sending or reading the data of the
device of monitor.
* Note: The devices slave address on I2C

4. The user control parameters are selected by OSD icons, through 1 & 2 keys, they are detected by
sensing the voltage through R710, R740, R741, R743, R716, R717 to pin 25 and 26 of I701.


3-3 Deflection Section
1. I2C -- autosync deflection controller is TDA4841.
2. The TDA4841 is a high performance and efficient solution for autosync monitors. All functions are
controllable by I2C bus. SDA and SCL signals coming from microprocessor feed to pin 19 and pin 18 to
control all functions.

3-3-1 Horizontal Section
1. The oscillator is driven by the currents in R419 and R420. The minimum oscillator frequency is determined
by R419 and the maximum frequency is determined by R420.
2. Horizontal sync goes into pin 15 through R318. And horizontal flyback pulse goes into pin 1 through R401
and bypass filter C403 from pin 6 of FBT.
3. Horizontal driver (pin8) O/P to Q401 via C410.

3-3-2 Vertical Section
1. Vertical sync goes into pin 14 through R317.
2. The free running frequency is determined by R301 and C301.




Operation Theory Page 11
C1570MNSL/T


3-3-3 Vertical O/P section
1. The differential output currents from pin 13 of Vout1 and pin 12 of Vout2 can be directly coupled to the
vertical deflection booster pin 7 and pin 6 of TDA4863AJ.
2. The TDA48634J has one output stages which are current driven in opposite phase and operate in combination
with the deflection coil in a half bridge configuration.
3. This IC is powered by two voltage. (+12V at pin 1, -12V at pin 4).

3-3-4 E-W/Trapezoid and H. Width Controls
1. The horizontal O/P stage uses diode modulator D419, D410, C411, C412, L409 and C418 for East-West
(Pincushion) Trapezoid and H. width controls.
2. The scan current is determined by B+ minus Vm ( the voltage of C418) values and the pincushion control
is accomplished by Q419 by coupling a parabola waveform from pin 11 of TDA4841. The H. width /
corner and trapezoid correction are also accomplished by this pin 11. The DC level controls H. size. The
AC level is combined with side pin and trapezoid corners functions.

3-3-5 X-Ray Protection
1. To avoid X-ray hazard, a DC voltage generated at pin 6 of FBT and rectified by D408, C432 and divided
by R403, R404 and R405 come into pin 2 of TDA4841.
2. If this voltage is higher than 6.39 V, then TDA4841 will be activated to float HUNLOCK (pin17), H.
DRV( pin 8), B DRV (pin 6), VOUT1 (pin 12), VOUT2 (pin13). After that all deflection circuit stop
working.

3-3-6 G1, Blanking and Brightness
1. The vertical blanking signal comes from two ways. One is from pin 2 of I301 (TDA4863AJ), the other is
from vertical sync (pin 34 of I701). These two positive vertical pulses through Q405 amplified and converted
into negative pulse and sent to G1 for vertical blanking.
2. In protection mode or an out-of- range situation HUNLock will send 5 V pulse to saturate Q407, then G1
will go down to -140V. During the mode change, Mute acts as same as HUNLocks.
3. The brightness is controlled by CPU pin 39 through PNP transistor Q407. The lower control voltage
causes Q407 conducts darken to get lighter raster and a higher control voltage causes Q407 conducts
lighter to get lower brightness.
4. The brightness is controled by I701 through I2C bus to I501 (LM1267).

3-3-7 Contrast Section
1. Contrast is controlled by I701 through I2C bus to I501 (LM1267) directly.
2. Beam current is detected through T402 (FBT) pin 7, C429, R460, D406 and detected voltage feeding into
Q406, D415, Q409, R530, R532, R454, R471, C529 to control I501 pin 22 voltage. When I501 pin 24
voltage drops below 3.9V, the ABL function will happen.

3-3-8 H/V size breathing compensation
1. Beam current is sensed as above section (4-3-7 item 2) and this voltage routes through R436, Q409,

R459 then through R418 to I401 pin 31 for H. size compensation, through R302 to I401 pin 21 for V size
compensation.

3-3-9 Dynamic focus circuitry
The dynamic focus is applied to improve the corner focus performance.
Horizontal dynamic comes from C413 through R435, C450, T403, R434, C448 and feed to FBT dynamic
focus pin.


3-4 Power Supply Section

3-4-1 AC Rectifier
The circuit can accept 90 V to 264 V AC input through D828~D831 bridge diodes and C808 filtering to get
DC 126 V~364 V for power conversion in T802.

3-4-2 Line Filter
It consists of C859, C860, C803, C816, C848, C852, C807 and T801 and meets EMI regulation.

3-4-3 Power LED Status
1. The LED has 3 leads with common cathode to emit green and amber color light for different power
saving states. It is controlled by CPU.
2. Normal : Green light
Amber LED is off because CPU pin 31 is 1.96V and pin 30 is 0.02V, only green LED is turned on.
3. Off Mode : Amber light
CPU pin 31 is 0.02V and pin 30 is 1.92V, then green is off and amber is illuminated.

3-4-4 Auto Degaussing
When S801 turns on, pin 14 of I701 will send a signal to Q802 and turns on RL801 for degaussing. After 4
seconds, it will turn off RL801 automatically.

3-4-5 PWM Control
1. Start Up
The I801 (MC3842) gets power from R807, R873, C812 and pin 7 voltage reaches 16 V for starting up.
The I801 starts oscillation at 22 kHz, sawtooth on pin 4 and pin 6 output to drive Q803/T802. Once Q803
switching on, D806, C804 set up an 15 V to keep I801 working through D808 auxiliary voltage.
2. Regulation
The DC O/P voltage is proportional to the auxiliary voltage, so I801 pin 2 senses the feedback voltage from
the divider R802, R823, VR801 and R821 to compare with the built-in 2.5 volts reference voltage for error
amplifier operation. Finally pin 6 can modulate the different duty cycle by VR801 setting to achieve
regulation purpose.

3-4-6 Synchronization
1. Normal Mode




Operation Theory Page 13
C1570MNSL/T


The sync pulse from FBT (31 kHz~69 kHz) via C815, R826, D824, C814 and R816 to pin 4 of I801 to
keep I801 synchronized with horizontal sync input frequency.
2. Power Saving Modes: Standby/Suspend
Because there is no pulse from FBT, so the free-run frequency is decided by R815 and C814 and the
SMPS works at 22 kHz.
3. Override
The horizontal free run frequency is about 62.5 kHz under override condition, SMPS is synchronized to
this frequency.

3-4-7 O.V.P.
If the auxiliary voltage is higher than zener voltage ZD807 (18 volts) and makes pin 3 of I801 higher than
1 V, pin 6 duty cycle is limited to have the OVP activated.

3-4-8 O.P.P.
The excess current of T802 through Q803, R813 and R814 can develop enough voltage on pin 3 then limit the
power delivered because the pin 6 duty cycle is limited too.

3-4-9 Step Up Power Supply For FBT
1. The B+ of FBT is proportional to horizontal frequency, that is the higher frequency, the higher voltage.
The basic voltage is 55 volts from T802 pin 11 via L811, D813, C824 and the gate control of Q807 comes
from I401 pin 6 via Q808, R4C9 and R855. The duty cycle is controlled by C843, C841, C846, R846, R877
and R856, R857, R839 and D821 combination ratio.
2. The regulation and boost up (from 68 V to 160 V or more, on demand). The H.V. is set at 24.5 kV (zero
beam) by CPU pin 33. The booster comprises Q807, L802, L801, D820, C425 and T802 to offer the
required B+ for different frequency modes.


3-5 Video Amplifier Section
1. RGB signal inputs are terminated by R507, R537 and R567 then pass through the coupling capacitors
C501, C531 and C561 to I501 LM1267 preamplifier.
2. The amplifier RGB signals (0~3 Vpp) are adjusted by I2C bus from I501, pin 23 is for clamp pulse which
comes from pin 16 of TDA4841 to set up equal clamp level.
3. The video output stages are amplified by I502 (LM2469).
4. The RGB cathodes cut off are adjusted by I701 through I2C bus.
5. Under override condition, NO SIGNAL will show up on the screen.


3-6 OSD (On Screen Display) Circuit
1. The I504 HTV021-21 is OSD IC. The OSD signals are worked by positive vertical pulse from I701 pin 34
that goes to I504 pin 10, and positive horizontal pulse from T402 pin 6 goes through R472, C419, D433 to
I504 pin 5. CPU I701 pin 12, 13 (I2C bus) transfers information to I504 pin 7, 8.
2. The OSD R. G. B signals and blanking signal are terminated at I504 pin 15, 14, 13, and 12 to I501 pin 1,
2, 3, and 4, then the OSD picture appears.
