General Information
Later sections include both mechanical and electrical parts lists for this product. The parts listed are current as of the date printed. Crown reserves the right to modify and improve its products for the benefit of its customers. shipment on a C.O.D. or pre-payment (check or credit card) basis.

Terms
Normal terms are pre-paid. Net-30 Days applies to only those firms having pre-established accounts with Crown. If pre-paying, the order must be packed and weighed before a total bill can be established, after which an amount due will be issued and shipment made upon receipt of pre-payment. New parts returned for credit are subject to a 10% re-stocking fee, and authorization from the Crown Parts Department must be obtained before returning parts for credit. Crown is not a general parts warehouse. Parts sold by the Crown Parts Department are solely for servicing Crown/Amcron products. Part prices and availability are subject to change without notice.

Part Numbering Systems
As of the printing of this manual, Crown is using two numbering systems. The elder system always uses eight characters. The first character is a letter. Common letters used are C, D, H, M, P, and Q. The second through sixth characters are numbers. The numbers build sequentially (for each prefix letter) as new parts are added to our parts inventory system. (In some cases there will be a space then a four character number after the prefix letter; the space is considered a character.) The seventh character is usually a hyphen, though it may be a letter to indicate a revision or special note. The last character is called a check-digit, and is useful to Crown for internal tracking. Crown is in the process of converting to a new part number system. Length may vary from eight to twelve characters. There is still a letter prefix, then five numbers. These five numbers identify a type of part. The seventh character is a hyphen. Remaining characters identify the details of the type of part identified by the first part of the number.

Overview
It should be noted that over time Crown makes improvements and changes to their products for various reasons. This manual is up to date as of the time of writing. For additional information regarding these amplifiers, refer to the applicable Technical Notes provided by Crown for this product. This section of the manual explains the general operation of a typical Crown power amplifier. Topics covered include Front End, Grounded Bridge, and ODEP. Due to variations in design from vintage to vintage (and similarities with other Crown products) the theory of operation remains simplified. indicator for each channel which indicates signal output and distortion. In general, the packaging of this model is designed for maximum watt/price/weight/ size value with user friendly features. For additional details refer to the specification section, or to the applicable Owner's Manual.

Front End Operation
The front end is comprised of three stages: Balanced Gain Stage (BGS), Variable Gain Stage (VGS), and the Error Amp. Figure 1 shows a simplified diagram of a typical front end with voltage amplification stages. Balanced Gain Stage (BGS) Input to the amplifier is balanced. The shield may be isolated from chassis ground by an RC network to interrupt ground loops via the Ground Lift Switch. The non-inverting (hot) side of the balanced input is fed to the non-inverting input of the first op-amp stage. The inverting (negative) side of the balanced input is fed to the inverting input of the first op-amp stage. A potentiometer is provided for common mode rejection adjustment. Electrically, the BGS is at unity gain. (From an audio perspective, however, this stage actually provides +6dB gain if a fully balanced signal is placed on its input.) The BGS is a non-inverting stage. It's output is delivered to the Variable Gain Stage. Variable Gain Stage (VGS) From the output of the BGS, the signal goes to the VGS where gain is determined by the position of the Sensitivity Switch, and level is determined by the level control. VGS is an inverting stage with the input being fed to its op-amp stage. Because gain after this stage is fixed at 26dB (factor of 20), greater amplifier sensitivity is achieved by controlling the ratio of feedback to input resistance. The Sensitivity Switch sets the input impedance to this stage and varies the gain such that the overall amplifier gain is 26 dB, or is adjusted appropriately for 0.775V or 1.4V input to attain rated output. Error Amp The inverted output from the VGS is fed to the noninverting input of the Error Amp op-amp stage through an AC coupling capacitor and input resistor. Amplifier output is fed back via the negative feedback (NFb) loop resistor. The ratio of feedback resistor to input resistor fixes gain from the Error Amp input to the output of the amplifier at 26 dB. Diodes prevent

Features
Macro Tech amplifiers utilize numerous Crown innovations including grounded bridge and ODEP technologies. Cooling techniques make use of the what is essentially air conditioner technology. Air flows bottom to top, and front to side. Air flows a short distance across a wide heatsink. This type of air flow provides significantly better cooling than the "wind tunnel" technology used by many other manufacturers. Output transistors are of the metal can type rather than plastic case. This allows for a significantly higher thermal margin for the given voltage and current ratings. All devices used are tested and graded to ensure maximum reliability. Another electronic technique used is negative feedback. Almost all power amplifiers utilize negative feedback to control gain and provide stability, but Crown uses multiple nested feedback loops for maximum stability and greatly improved damping. Most Crown amplifiers have damping in excess of 1000 in the bass frequency range. This feedback, along with our compensation and ultra-low distortion output topology, make Crown amplifiers superior. Features specific to the Macro Tech Series' include two seperate power transformers (one for each channel), a full time full speed fan which also serves as the low voltage transformer, slew rate limiting, and audio muting for delay or protective action. This amplifier can operate in either a Bridged or Parallel Mono mode as well as dual (stereo). A sensitivity switch allows selection of input voltage required for rated output. Level controls are mounted on the front panel and are of the rotary type. Front panel indicators let the user know the status of the low voltage power supply (enable), an ODEP indicator for each channel which shows the reserve energy status, and a SPI/IOC 8

Theory
overdriving the Error Amp. Because the Error Amp amplifies the difference between input and output signals, any difference in the two waveforms will produce a near open loop gain condition which in turn results in high peak output voltage. The output of the Error Amp, called the Error Signal (ES) drives the Voltage Translators. limiting transistors and control/protection transistors. The ODEP transistors steal drive as dictated by the ODEP circuitry (discussed later). The control/protection transistors act as switches to totally shunt audio to ground during the turn-on delay, or during a DC/LF or Fault protective action. Last Voltage Amplifiers (LVAs) The Voltage Translator stage channels the signal to the Last Voltage Amplifiers (LVA's) in a balanced configuration. The +LVA and -LVA, with their push-pull effect through the Bias Servo, drive the fully complementary output stage. The LVAs are configured as common emitter amplifiers. This configuration provides sufficient voltage gain and inverts the audio. The polarity inversion is necessary to avoid an overall polarity inversion from input jack to output jack, and it allows the NFb loop to control Error Amp gain by feeding back to its non-inverting input (with its polarity opposite to the output of the VGS). With the added voltage swing provided by the LVAs, the signal then gains current amplification through the Darlington emitter-follower output stage.

Voltage Amplification
The Voltage Translator stage separates the output of the Error Amp into balanced positive and negative drive voltages for the Last Voltage Amplifiers (LVAs), translating the signal from ground referenced ±15V to ±Vcc reference. LVAs provide the main voltage amplification and drive the High Side output stages. Gain from Voltage Translator input to amplifier output is a factor of 25.2. Voltage Translators A voltage divider network splits the Error Signal (ES) into positive and negative drive signals for the balanced voltage translator stage. These offset reference voltages drive the input to the Voltage Translator transistors. A nested NFb loop from the output of the amplifier mixes with the inverted signal riding on the offset references. This negative feedback fixes gain at the offset reference points (and the output of the Error Amp) at a factor of -25.2 with respect to the amplifier output. The Voltage Translators are arranged in a common base configuration for non-inverting voltage gain with equal gain. They shift the audio from the ±15V reference to VCC reference. Their outputs drive their respective LVA. Also tied into the Voltage Translator inputs are ODEP

Grounded Bridge Topology
Figure 2 is a simplified example of the grounded bridge output topology. It consists of four quadrants of three deep Darlington (composite) emitter-follower stages per channel: one NPN and one PNP on the High Side of the bridge (driving the load), and one NPN and one PNP on the Low Side of the bridge (controlling the ground reference for the rails). The output stages are biased to operate class AB+B for ultra low distortion in the signal zero-crossing region and high efficiency.

Theory
High Side (HS) The High Side (HS) of the bridge operates much like a conventional bipolar push-pull output configuration. As the input drive voltage becomes more positive, the HS NPN conducts and delivers positive voltage to the load. Eventually the NPN devices reach full conduction and +Vcc is across the load. At this time the HS PNP is biased off. When the drive signal is negative going, the HS PNP conducts to deliver -Vcc to the load and the HS NPN stage is off. The output of the +LVA drives the base of predriver device. Together, the predriver and driver form the first two parts of the three-deep Darlington and are biased class AB. They provide output drive through the bias resistor, bypassing the output devices, at levels below about 100mW. An RLC network between the predriver and driver provide phase shift compensation and limit driver base current to safe levels. Output devices are biased class B, just below cutoff. At about 100mW output they switch on to conduct high current to the load. Together with predriver and driver, the output device provide an overall class AB+B output. The negative half of the HS is almost identical to the positive half, except that the devices are PNP. One difference is that the PNP bias resistor is slightly greater in value so that PNP output devices run closer to the cutoff level under static (no signal) conditions. This is because PNP devices require greater drive current. HS bias is regulated by Q18, the Bias Servo. Q18 is a Vbe multiplier which maintains approximately 3.3V Vce under static conditions. The positive and negative halves of the HS output are in parallel with this 3.3V. With a full base-emitter on voltage drop across predrivers and drivers, the balance of voltage results in approximately .35V drop across the bias resistors in the positive half, and about .5V across the bias resistor in the negative half. Q18 conduction (and thus bias) is adjustable. A diode string prevents excessive charge build up within the high conduction output devices when off. Flyback diodes shunt back-EMF pulses from reactive loads to the power supply to protect output devices from dangerous reverse voltage levels. An output terminating circuit blocks RF on output lines from entering the amplifier through its output connectors. Low Side (LS) The Low Side (LS) operates quite differently. The power supply bridge rectifier is not ground referenced, nor is the secondary of the main transformer. In other words, the high voltage power supply floats with respect to ground, but ±Vcc remain constant with respect to each other. This allows the power supply to

Theory
deliver +Vcc and -Vcc from the same bridge rectifier and filter as a total difference in potential, regardless of their voltages with respect to ground. The LS uses inverted feedback from the HS output to control the ground reference for the rails (±Vcc). Both LS quadrants are arranged in a three-deep Darlington and are biased AB+B in the same manner as the HS. When the amplifier output swings positive, the audio is fed to an op-amp stage where it is inverted. This inverted signal is delivered directly to the bases of the positive (NPN) and negative (PNP) LS predrivers. The negative drive forces the LS PNP devices on (NPN off). As the PNP devices conduct, Vce of the PNP Darlington drops. With LS device emitters tied to ground, -Vcc is pulled toward ground reference. Since the power supply is not ground referenced (and the total voltage from +Vcc to -Vcc is constant) +Vcc is forced higher above ground potential. This continues until, at the positive amplifier output peak, -Vcc = 0V and +Vcc equals the total power supply potential with a positive polarity. If, for example, the power supply produced a total of 70V from rail to rail (±35VDC measured from ground with no signal), the amplifier output would reach a positive peak of +70V. Conversely, during a negative swing of the HS output where HS PNP devices conduct, the op-amp would output a positive voltage forcing LS NPN devices to conduct. This would result in +Vcc swinging toward ground potential and -Vcc further from ground potential. At the negative amplifier output peak, +Vcc = 0V and -Vcc equals the total power supply potential with a negative polarity. Using the same example as above, a 70V supply would allow a negative output peak of 70V. In summary, a power supply which produces a total of 70VDC rail to rail (or ±35VDC statically) is capable of producing 140V peak-to-peak at the amplifier output when the grounded bridge topology is used. The voltage used in this example are relatively close to the voltages of the PB-1/460CSL. The total effect is to deliver a peak to peak voltage to the speaker load which is twice the voltage produced by the power supply. Benefits include full utilization of the power supply (it conducts current during both halves of the output signal; conventional designs require two power supplies per channel, one positive and one negative), and never exposing any output device to more than half of the peak to peak output voltage (which does occur in conventional designs). Low side bias is established by a diode string which also shunts built up charges on the output devices. Bias is adjustable via potentiometer. Flyback diodes perform the same function as the HS flybacks. The output of the LS is tied directly to chassis ground via ground strap.

Output Device Emulation Protection (ODEP)
To further protect the output stages, a specially developed ODEP circuit is used. It produces a complex analog output signal. This signal is proportional to the always changing safe-operating-area margin of the output transistors. The ODEP signal controls the Voltage Translator stage by removing drive that may exceed the safe-operating-area of the output stage. ODEP senses output current by measuring the voltage dropped across LS emitter resistors. LS NPN current (negative amplifier output) and +Vcc are sensed, then multiplied to obtain a signal proportional to output power. Positive and negative ODEP voltages are adjustable via two potentiometers. Across ±ODEP are a PTC and a thermal sense (current source). The PTC is essentially a cutoff switch that causes hard ODEP limiting if heatsink temperature exceeds a safe maximum, regardless of signal level. The thermal sense causes the differential between +ODEP and ­ ODEP to decrease as heatsink temperature increases. An increase in positive output signal output into a load will result in ­ODEP voltage dropping; an increase in negative output voltage and current will cause +ODEP voltage to drop. A complex RC network between the ±ODEP circuitry is used to simulate the thermal barriers between the interior of the output device die (immeasurable by normal means) and the time delay from heat generation at the die until heat dissipates to the thermal sensor. The combined effects of thermal history and instantaneous dynamic power level result in an accurate simulation of the actual thermal condition of the output transistors.

Electrical Checkout Procedures
General Information
The following test procedures are to be used to verify operation of this amplifier. DO NOT connect a load or inject a signal unless directed to do so by the procedure.

*Note: R30 is 102 Ohms in most units, though in some cases a different value may be used to match the installed S100/S200 LM334 (C5826-0) device grade. This is the standard value and is used with the most common LM334 grade, green. If the LM334 is marked with a blue dot, R30 should be a 107 Ohm resistor (A10265-10701); if it is marked with a yellow dot then R30 should be a 100 Ohm resistor (A10265-10001).

*Note: R30 is 102 Ohms in most units, though in some cases a different value may be used to match the installed S100/S200 LM334 (C5826-0) device grade. This is the standard value and is used with the most common LM334 grade, green. If the LM334 is marked with a blue dot, R30 should be a 107 Ohm resistor (A10265-10701); if it is marked with a yellow dot then R30 should be a 100 Ohm resistor (A10265-10001).
