Basic operation of Plasma Display
1. After turning on power switch, power board sends Vsby +5V Volt to Micro Processor IC waiting for ON signals from Key Switch or Remote Receiver. 2. When the ON signal from Key Switch or Remote Receiver is detectedMicro Processor will send ON Control signals to Power. Then Power sends volts(VsVxg VwVfVddVcc and +9V)to PCBs working. This time VIF will send signals to display back light OSD on the panel and start to search available signal sources. If the audio signals inputthem will be amplified by Audio AMP and transmitted to Speakers. 3. If some abnormal signals are detectedfor example:over voltsover currentover temperature and under voltsthe system will be shut down by Power off.

VIF System Block Diagram
ADC Converter : AD9888 KS
The AD9888 is a complete 8 bit , 205 MSPS monolithic analog interface optimized for capturing RGB graphics signals. Its 205 MSPS encode rate capability and full-power analog bandwidth of 500 MHz supports resolutions up to UXGA(1600 x1200 @ 75 Hz).

TMDS Receiver: SIL151ACT100
The Sil153BCT100 receiver uses Panel Link Digital technology to support high resolution displays up to SXGA(25MHz~112MHz) . The Sil153B receiver supports up to true color panels (24 bit/pixel, 16.7M colors) in 1 or 2 pixels/clock mode. In addition , the receiver data output is time staggered to reduce ground bounce that affects EMI.

VIDEO Decoder:SAA7118E
The SAA7118E decoder is a ADC, too. But it can deal with the ordinary TV signals. The SAA7118E can be input Composite S-video Component signals and its outputs are digital Y(Luminance) , C(Chromaticity) signals.

And it also can adjust brightness , contrast , saturation , hue .

De-interlace:SIL504CM208
The Sil504 transfer interlacing signals into progressive signals. The advantage of progressive signals is that the scanning rate doubling to let the screen more stable and non-flickering. Besides, the sources of input may have 24 0r 30 or 25 frames per sec, so the de-interlaced chip shall tell from the differences and processing the signals. The basic function of de-interlaced IC is to combine the odd and even sub-frames to a frame , and the processing needs a memory IC(SDRAM) to store these signals for processing . For the improving the quality of image sake , more and more TVs or DVD players all have the functions of progressive scanning.

Image Processor Chip:PW171-20U(system on chip)
Image Processor chip:PW171-20U(system on chip) Scaling function :

The Image scalars provide high quality up and down image scaling . For the applications of VIF , the input signals could be VGA , SVGA , XGA formats , and its output fixed at 852 x 480 @60 HZ . For example , SVGA format:800 x 600 @75Hz , first scaling down : Horizontal 800 640Vertical 600 480 , 75 frames / sec after frame rate conversion become 60 frames per sec. Then scaling up 640 852 , to accomplish the scaling function. Micro Processor Function :

This chip includes microprocessor(on-chip 80x86) ; selectable function and I/O interface control . With 3 groups of 8-bit programmable I/O , 1 group of RS-232 communication port , IR decoder ,timer and a PWM generator OSD Function :

The on-screen-display(OSD) can be used for startup screens , menus , and scribble functions

DIF Board
DIF Structure

isplaying your vision!

Three Functions of DIF :
(1)Image Signals Processing
Transfer image signal into RGB signal respectively and according to the characteristic of a frame needed to process and adjust the signal.

(2)Waveform Controlling
This function is accomplished by IC106, it generate the controlling waveform signals of X,Y sustainer

(3)Power Controlling
The functions of APC (auto power control) are important to panel ; if APC were abnormal, it may cause power failure or even panel broken

isplaying your vision!

APC Function

isplaying your vision!

APC Function
After image data is transmitted to APC by signals processing unitthe Calculate Display Ratio begins to calculate the ratio of pattern. After checking and calculating pattern(A ,B , C) , the numbers of pattern , then sending the data of display and switching count to the window memory . . The APC is performing mathematical calculations , by reducing the sustain frequency and closing some sub-fields to accomplish. There is reference for judgment. The relative parameters has been tested by experiments to determine, so if the parameters of APC are not the optimal parameter , it may cause panel broken , scan IC burned , power supply failure.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) 1. Power on the PDP set yet without any picture on the screen a. First check both ends of the power cable are plugged into the socket appropriately then make sure power switch being turned on, survey the red standby light is lamped, if the red standby light is not lamped it means maybe input power has some problem or the safety fuse of AC line filter is burned. b. If the red standby light is lamped it means input power is OK, press key to power on the PDP set if standby light turn to green successfully it means maybe there is something wrong with VIF , DIF or X,Y sustainer. 2.At cable TV mode only find few television channels In OSD manu select TV function and press enter into sub-manu, then at source mode choose CATV and execute TV Program thus all CATV channels would be found. 3. How to do with image sticking? When static image is being displayed on the screen for a long period of time may cause image

isplaying your vision!

Easy maintenance of Plasma Display
sticking on the screen. When image sticking occurred, the only way to clear up the image sticking is press "Full White" key, using full white image to burn in the screen till image sticking disappear. 4. The signal from PC can`t output to the screen Maybe PC input signal resolution out of PDP set accepted range, please reduce the resolution to1024×768 or lower. If still have problem, check whether the signal line is connected properly or not. 5. The sound of external speaker is not loud enough Check whether the speaker cables are connected appropriately or not Whether the impedance of external speaker match that of audio board output or not, PDP audio output power is 10W × 2, the impedance of audio board output is about 8, if the impedance of external speaker is 16 or higher may cause audio output power decrease 50% or more .

isplaying your vision!

6. There are some noise being found on the higher CATV channels Maybe the signal quality from cable station is too weak or no good, please inform the cable station to improve the signal quality. 7. The signal from DVD player can`t output to the screen? Check the signal cables from DVD output to PDP input are connected appropriately and check the type of terminal (CVBS, S-Video or the component) then check whether PDP signal input select is correct or not. If all connection and setting are OK then maybe the problem is DVD output having some trouble or PDP set VIF board breakdown. 8 How to clean the screen? Use a soft cotton cloth to clean the screen gently, if also unclean may wet the soft cotton cloth by alcohol and try again. (Other solutions may cause surface filter damage)
