7-2-1 Terms and Description of the Logic Board




!LVDS Connector : A connector which receives LVDS-encoded RGB, H, V, DATAEN and DCLK.
@Activity Indicator LED : Indicates that the Logic Board is receiving normal Sync and clock.
(Normal State: Blinks every second.)
#12C Connector : Connects with the Key Scan Board that checks and adjusts the 256K data.
$256K : An EEPROM that stores the Gamma Table, APC Table, Timing for driving waveforms, and other options.
%Y-Connector : A Connector which outputs the control signal for the Y Driving Board
^X-Connector : A Connector which outputs the control signal for the X Driving Board
&CN401 (Left E-Address Buffer Connector) : Outputs the address data and control signal to the lower E-Buffer Board
*CN402 (Center F-Address Buffer Connector) : Outputs the address data and control signal to the lower F-Buffer Board
(CN403 (Right G-Address Buffer Connector) : Outputs the address data and control signal to the upper F-Buffer Board
)Power Connector : A power connector which receives the input power (5V) for the Logic Board
1Power Fuse : A fuse for the Power
2Optional Switch : It switches between Internal/External

7-2-2 The Logic Board

The Logic Board consists of the Logic Main Board and the Buffer Board. The Logic Main Board processes
video signals to produce the Address Driver Output Signal and the Buffer Board delivers the Address
Driver Output Signal to the Address Driver IC (TCP Module).


Logic Board Function Remakr
Processes Video Signals (W/L, Error Diffusion, APC)
Logic Board Outputs the Address Driver Control Signal and the
(Main) Data Signal to the Buffer Board
Outputs the XY Driving Board Control Signal

Buffer Board E-Buffer Board - left side Delivers the Data and Control Signal to the left TCP
(Buffer Board, F-Buffer Board - center Delivers the Data and Control Signal to the center TCP
on the back side)
G-Buffer Board - right side Delivers the Data and Control Signal to the right TCP



7-2-3 Waveform in a Normal State
When the PDP set is working properly and the Logic Board is normal, the Activity Indicator LED (as shown
in Fig. 1) blinks once per second.
Check the LED when the PDP has an error, and replace the Board if the LED status is abnormal.
If inspection of the board is required to clear a PDP unit error, refer to the Logic Board Inspection Guide for
the procedure (provided separately).


7-2-4 Diagnosis and Troubleshooting
A fault in the Logic Board can be caused by various reasons; follow the flow chart for troubleshooting.



No Screen Image
Check the Input Power
YES NO

Check the Activity Indicator LED
Check the Power Cable
NO YES


Check the Detailed Waveforms Check the Fuse
Replace the 256K and
(Switch to the Internal Pattern.) examine the PDP unit
Check the Power Unit Inductor

Check the Internal Pattern


Check the Detailed Waveforms
(Refer to the Inspection Guide)

(Refer to the Inspection Guide)




7-2-5 Definitions of Terms
1. Logic Main Board
Applies the PDP video signal by signaling the X, Y Driving Boards and the Logic E, F, G Buffers.
2. 5V, 3.3V
5V : Voltage that is applied to the Logic Buffer by the Logic Main
3.3V : Main voltage that is supplied to the Logic Main Board

7-2-6 Preparations Before the Inspection
1. Test Equipment / Measuring Instruments:
Equipment must retain its precision and comply with regulations.
Inspection Desk: 110V and 220V should be supplied, and there should be enough free space to hold the
instruments and test samples.
Oscilloscope: A 500MHz Frequency Band with 2 or more channels is required.

7-2-7 Switch Descriptions of the Logic Main Board
1) Internal Pattern: Switch Off (Down Position) #2, #4 and Switch On #3 (Up) on SW2001
2) External Pattern: Switch On (Up) #2, #4 and Switch Off #3 (Down) on SW2001

#Turn the set ON to apply the 5V and 3.3V power to the Logic Main Board.
Check whether the Vsync LED is blinking (located on top left side of the Logic Main Board).
An LED that is blinking too fast or does not light up means the Logic Main Board is abnormal.
$Verify each waveform of the Logic Main Board and compare them to waveforms shown below.
Each and every waveform should be verified.
%After finishing, turn off the power.
^When the inspection is finished, set SW2001 to the External Pattern.
