Overall Block
Overview
The BA-5 chassis is new for the 2000 model year. It is the first of the BA
type chassis to cover 13” to 32” models using the FD Trinitron tubes. In
order to accomplish this, parts common to all models are on one board,
the A board. The MA or MB board contain the video processing and
Syscon sections. If the set contains surround sound audio then it will
have a K board. CA or CB boards contain the CRT Drive and Velocity
Modulation. All 27” and above models contain a D board. Some 27” and
above sets contain P and B boards which plug into the MB board. These
boards are for PIP and a 3D Digital Comb Filter.
A Board
Power Supply
The A board contains sections that are common to all models. It contains
the standby and switching power supplies. The Standby supply is an
Energy Star complaint switching supply. It produces 7.5 volts to be used
by the MA AND MB board. The MA AND MB board contains a 5V Regu-
lator to power the System Control IC. The main switching supply pro-
duces +135 volts, Audio B+ and low voltage supplies. The low voltage
supplies are +12, +9 and +5 volts.
The A board contains a degaussing circuit which is activated by the DGC
line from System Control. This line controls a relay, which when acti-
vated, supplies 120 VAC to the degaussing coil.
Audio
The audio section on the A board contains the audio output amplifier.
There may also be a switching IC that selects the correct audio input if the
unit does not contain a K board. Any unit that features surround sound
audio or SRS will have a K board.
Video
The A board contains front and rear input jacks and the main tuner. 24”
inch and under sets will have a video input select switch on the A board.
In other models, the video switching will be handled by the YCJ on the MA
board.
Deflection
The horizontal, vertical and pincushion correction circuits are contained
on the A board. These circuits control the current through the yokes in
order to correctly scan the CRT. The FBT produces supply voltages for
the vertical output and creates high voltage, focus voltage and G2 screen
voltage. Pulses are monitored by the H protect circuit. If these pulses
become too large, they will activate the latch circuit which will shut down
the supply.
MA or MB Boards
The MA AND MB boards contain the YCJ and System Control circuits.
The MB board will be used on all 24” and under sets. All 27” and larger
sets will use the MA board. These boards use different YCJ and System
Control ICs. The different YCJ allows for more inputs and also controls
video switching in the larger sets. In addition, the larger sets contain a
different System Control IC that is utilized to produce a better OSD and
menu system.
In models that have the PIP function, a 2nd Tuner and a P board will be
added to the MA board. The P board creates the sub picture using the
video from the 2nd tuner.
The KV27FV16 contains a 3D Comb Filter that resides on the B board.
The B board plugs into the MA board similarly to the P board.
CA or CB Boards
All 24” and under sets will contain the CB board. The CB board includes
the CRT Drive and North/South Drive for tilt correction. The similar CA
board will be used on all 27” and over models.
VA or VB Boards (Not shown)
All sets contain a VA or VB board, which contains VM Drive.
D Board (Not shown)
Larger sets will contain a D board. This board contains Quadra-pole and
Dynamic Focus circuits necessary to produce a better picture on larger
screen size models.

Power Supply and Self-Diagnostics
Power Supply
When the unit is first plugged in, power is applied through the AC In block
to the Standby Supply. The Standby Supply powers the System Control
IC, EEPROM, remote sensor and reset circuits. If a Power ON command
is received after reset, the System Control IC outputs voltages to turn ON
the Power and Degauss relays. When operating correctly, the following
can be observed in sequence:
• The power relay clicks;
• One second later the degauss relay clicks and the hum of the DGC is
heard for about two seconds; and
• The degauss relay clicks again two seconds later and then a picture is
displayed.
This entire sequence occurs in the first 5-10 seconds the unit is powered
ON. During this time, the Standby/Timer LED will be flashing approxi-
mately once per second.
The main power supply in the BA-5 chassis uses one switching IC to
control switching of the B+ through a transformer. The transformer pri-
mary couples the signal to the secondary. The secondary signals are
used to create three DC voltages, which are used to supply power to the
rest of the set. Feedback from the primary side of the transformer and the
+135 volt line created by the secondary are used to control the switching
frequency. The IC also has three built-in protection circuits. They are for
over voltage, over current and thermal protection. These protection cir-
cuits will be covered in the Switching Power Supply section.
Protection
Protection circuits are included to deactivate the set if the following fail-
ures occur:
Standby +7.5 volt OVP – If over voltage occurs on this line, a LOW will
be output to the base of the relay drive transistor. This shuts the set OFF.
+135 volt OCP – This sensor monitors the voltage across a resistor that
feeds the H Out and FBT and protects against +135 volt OCP. When
OCP is detected, the protect latch is activated. When the latch is acti-
vated, drive to the relay is stopped. This shuts down the main power
supply. A signal is also sent to the Syscon IC to be used by the Self-
Diagnostics.
H Protect – Or hold down is used to keep the picture tube from emitting
harmful x-rays if a failure should occur that causes the High Voltage to
rise. When this circuit is activated, it also turns the latch ON. This turns
drive to the power relay OFF and sends a signal to the Syscon to be used
for self-diagnostics.
AKB Protect – Or IK protect causes the video to be blanked if the YCJ
does not receive the correct feedback from the IK line. The IK line’s
voltage is representative of the amount of current being drawn by the
tube. This current is monitored during vertical blanking. The YCJ outputs
one H line for each color and monitors the returning IK voltage. If this
voltage is not within the correct operating window, the YCJ alerts the
Syscon IC via the I²C bus for use by the Self-Diagnostics.
I Protect- I protect occurs when the Vertical Output IC does not return
samples of its pump-up pulse to the Syscon. When these pulses are
missing, it is an indicator that the vertical section is not working. The
Syscon IC monitors these pulses for Self-Diagnostics and protection pur-
poses. When the pulses are missing, the main power supply is turned
OFF and Self-Diagnostics are activated.

Inrush Current Protection
Overview
Sets with 20-inch tubes and below use R605 and R606 (shown in the
Power ON/Degaussing section) for inrush current protection. Since more
current is drawn when a set with a bigger CRT is turned ON, an alternate
inrush current circuit is used for sets with 24 inch and larger CRTs. The
resistors in smaller sets remain in place after turn ON. The larger sets
use a resistor that is shunted by an SCR shortly after power ON. This
allows more current to be drawn without dissipating more power.
In Rush Current Protection
RY602 is closed when the set is turned ON. This applies AC to D605
Bridge Rectifier and R637. D605 Bridge Rectifier supplies DC to the switch-
ing supply through R626. R621 is added in order to keep excessive cur-
rent from being drawn by the switching supply at initial turn ON. R621 is
placed in series between the negative terminal of D605 Bridge Rectifier
and hot ground. This resistor is not in place in smaller sets that contain
R605 and R606. The negative terminal of D605 Bridge Rectifier is con-
nected directly to hot ground in these sets.
D606 is a thyristor that is connected across R621. When the set is turned
ON, 80 volts is developed across R621. This initial voltage causes D608
to conduct since its zener voltage is 20 volts. When D608 is conducting,
Q601 is ON. Q601 keeps C610 from charging when it is ON. As the initial
inrush current begins to dissipate, the voltage across R621 decreases.
When this voltage drops below 20 volts, D608 turns OFF, causing Q601
to turn OFF. When Q601 turns OFF, C610 begins to charge. When the
charge of C610, a 10-uf capacitor, reaches about 14 volts, D606 begins
to conduct. After this occurs, the voltage drop across R621 becomes only
a few tenths of a volt.
D603 is a 33 volt zener used for protection. It is not activated during initial
turn ON because C609 needs to charge. C609 is a 100-uf capacitor.
C609 will not charge to a level of 33 volts before D606 turns ON. This
keeps the circuit from activating at power ON.
In the event that there is a problem such as D606 opening during opera-
tion, C609 will charge and D603 will turn ON. When D603 turns ON,
current flows through D607 and R619. This causes Q602 and Q603 to
turn ON. When Q603 turns ON, the VIN voltage from C620 is applied to
IC601/1 through R644. This causes IC601 to activate its own OCP cir-
cuit, stopping the supply from switching. If a failure of this nature were to
occur for a very short time, less than four seconds, the supply could re-
start itself. If the failure lasted longer, a sequence of four flashing Standby/
Timer LED followed by a pause would occur and the Power Relay would
be opened. The Standby/Timer LED will continue to flash in the above
sequence until power is removed from the set. This removes power from
the supply and it ceases to function. This is an indication that there is
a vertical failure when actually there is a problem in the power sup-
ply.

+135 OCP and H Protect
Overview
The +135 OCP and H Protect detection circuits output a HIGH to indicate
a problem. These HIGHS are input to the latch circuit that then places a
LOW at the base of the relay drive transistor. This eliminates the current
path necessary to keep the unit ON. When there is a failure, a signal is
also sent to IC1001, which will indicate these failures by flashing the
Standby/Timer LED in sequences of two.
Latch and Hold Down
The latch is activated whenever a condition in the +135 volt OCP or the H
Protect circuits causes Q506/B to go HIGH. A HIGH on Q506/B turns it
ON, causing it to turn ON Q507. This drops the drive voltage to Relay
Drive Q607/B, turning it OFF. This in turn removes the ground return path
for RY602 and the unit shuts OFF. During shutdown, the voltage from the
Standby 7.5-volt line maintains the latch. You can determine which of the
two circuits is activating the latch by checking the voltage at D520/A with
a peak hold meter. If that voltage shows a peak near 5 volts, there is a
problem with the OCP.
The LOW signal created by the latch is also applied to the HLDWN line
through R508. The HLDWN line is connected to IC1001 at pin 35. When-
ever this line goes LOW, the Self-Diagnostics are activated and the
Standby/Timer LED flashes in sequences of two.
H Protect
When the horizontal circuit is operating normally, a signal is output from
T505/7 that is also used to supply voltage for the –15 volt line. This signal
is sent through R548 and D519 and is used to maintain the charge of
C546. The DC voltage created by the charge of C546 is input to IC501/5
Non inverting input through R563. This voltage is compared to a refer-
ence voltage of 10.4 volts that is derived by a voltage divider consisting of
R561, D517 and D518. D517 is used for temperature compensation. As
long as IC501/6 is greater than IC501/5, the horizontal circuit is operating
normally. The voltage at IC501/6 is proportional to the High Voltage. If
the High Voltage becomes excessive, the voltage at IC501/5 will become
greater than that at IC501/6. This would cause IC501/7 to output a HIGH.
This HIGH voltage activates the Latch. Note: This is a departure from
the way previous models have worked. Typically when the H pro-
tect circuit was activated, it turned ON a transistor that grounded
the HP input to the YCJ. In turn, the YCJ would disable HD.
+135 Volt OCP
Over current is detected by monitoring the voltage across R556 and R553.
When this voltage, which rises as more current is drawn, gets to a level
that causes Q505 to turn ON, the latch will be activated. C534 prevents
premature triggering of OCP.
Three main components generally cause this type of failure. They are
T505 FBT, Q502 H Out and the CRT Drive (not shown). You should check
Q502 with an ohmmeter first. This component usually fails with a C-E
short. Unloading each of them from the circuit one at a time can eliminate
these components. Note: Before doing this, ensure that SW501 H
Centering Switch is in the center position. Damage will occur to the
set if it is not.
• Unplug the unit. Start with the easiest by unplugging CN502 from the
A board and reapplying power. If the symptom changes from se-
quences of two flashes to sequences of five flashes, replace IC702
CRT Drive on the C board.
• If the symptom remains, unplug the set, reconnect CN502 and re-
move Q502. Re-apply power. If the symptom changes from sequences
of two flashes to sequences of four flashes, replace Q502.
• If the symptom remains, unplug the set and remove L510 and R568.
These points were chosen because they do not have eyelets. Conse-
quently they are easier to remove compared to unsoldering T505/2.
This eliminates the T505 FBT. If the symptom changes from sequences
of two flashes to sequences of four flashes, replace T505.
In very rare cases the protection transistor, Q505 in this case, has be-
come leaky. This can generally be determined by checking the transistor
with an ohmmeter or diode checker. It is also possible that IC501 has
become faulty.

Deflection Block
Horizontal
IC1301 YCJ generates the horizontal drive signal and outputs it from pin
34. This signal is first applied to horizontal drive transistor Q501 and is
then applied to the horizontal drive transformer T501 and coupled to Q502,
the Horizontal Output. The signal from the Horizontal Output is sent to
the horizontal yoke and the FBT T505. The horizontal deflection yoke
controls the beam scan horizontally. The Horizontal Output circuit also
outputs a sample of the H output that is squared off. This signal is called
HP. HP is returned to the Pin circuit, YCJ for H phase compensation, and
the D board on applicable models to create certain signals used by Dy-
namic Focus and Quadra-pole.
T505 FBT boosts the horizontal drive signal to create the high voltage,
G2, heater and focus voltages required by the picture tube. The FBT
creates an ABL signal which is representative of the current drawn by the
tube. This signal is used to limit the picture brightness and to compen-
sate for high voltage regulation. In addition, scan derived power supplies
are generated by the FBT. They are the +200, +12 and – 15 volts.
Pincushion
A 60 Hz parabola signal is output from the IC1301/11 E/W and applied to
the Pin Out circuit. This signal is compared with the HP signal to create a
Pulse Amplitude Modulated signal that is applied to the Horizontal circuit.
The purpose of this signal is to create a uniform picture width on the
screen
Vertical
The vertical drive signals are generated by the YCJ after it successfully
completes initial communication with the Syscon. These signals are
output from IC1301/13 and 14 and are applied to IC502 Vertical Out. The
output from IC502 Vertical Out is applied to the vertical yoke to control the
scanning of the beam vertically. The vertical output also generates a
boost pulse that is returned to the Syscon IC for self-diagnostics. This
boost pulse is also sent to the D board to create certain signals.
Dynamic Focus and Quadra-pole
The D board is used in all 27” and above models. This is because dy-
namic focus and Quadra-pole are necessary for larger FD Trinitron tubes.
The dynamic focus control uses the VP and HP signals to develop a sig-
nal, which will be used to sharpen the left and right sides of the picture.
The Quadra-pole circuit uses the VP and HP signals along with the posi-
tive vertical drive signal (VD+) to create a signal that will be applied to a
series of coils. The magnetic field of these coils is used to sharpen focus
in the four corners of the picture.

Horizontal Deflection
Overview
Since the Horizontal Deflection circuitry has changed little in the last few
years, we will not discuss its circuit description. This section of the course
will be used to offer troubleshooting tips for repairing BA-5 chassis sets.
Troubleshooting
The following is a procedure to try if the set is shutting down with a four
flashing sequence indication from the Self-diagnostics and No High
Voltage present. The presence of High Voltage for even a short time is
an indication that the Horizontal circuit is functioning normally and your
problem lies in the vertical section. Keep in mind the scan supplies are
part of the Horizontal circuit.
The YCJ should always output HD whenever 9 volts is present. You can
check this by turning the set ON and checking IC1301/19 HD for the sig-
nal shown below before the set shuts down. Another method would be to
remove the MB board and connect a +9 volt power supply to the 9-volt
line. The HD signal should be output from pin 19.
If IC1301 YCJ is outputting HD, the next step is to see if this signal is
present at the base of Q501 H Drive. If the signal looks good at Q501/B
then the base of Q502 H Out could be unloaded by unsoldering 1 side of
R504. This will determine if Q501 can output a signal with its load, T501,
connected. The following waveform should be seen at R504 with Q502/B
disconnected.
R504 with Q502/B unsoldered
5V 20US
Reconnect R504 if this signal is present. In order to be certain that T501
is capable of handling a load, you should unsolder L510 and R648 (not
shown). These components pass the +135 volts through to T505 FBT.
These components were chosen because they are easier to unsolder
then more evident components, which are soldered to the board where
there are eyelets. Note: Before doing this, ensure that SW501 H Cen-
tering Switch is in the center position. Otherwise damage will occur
to the set. The signal below should be present at Q502/B.

IC1301/19 2V 20US
The only exception would be if IC1301/18 HP is shorted to ground. This
pin serves a dual function in previous chassis. In those sets it is the HP/
H OFF line. In these models, during an H protect condition, pin 18 would
be grounded and HD at pin 19 would be halted. The H protect circuit does
not operate in this manner in the BA-5 chassis, but should IC1301/18 HP R504 with Q502/6 unsoldered
be grounded, it would cause HD to cease. IC1301/18 HP should be 5V 20US
checked for a short to ground in the event that the YCJ is not outputting
HD.

Video Path 24” and Under
Overview
The following section will discuss the video path for 24” and under BA-5
chassis models. These models have two sets of video inputs and a tuner
input. The rear jack may also have an S Video input. These signals are
routed through the video switch to the YCJ, then to the Comb Filter if
necessary, back through the YCJ, and then output as RGB.
Switching
The composite video signals from the rear jack J201, the front jack J202
and the tuner are all input to IC1304 Video Switch. IC1304 has two inputs
that are used to control the switching. These inputs are V0 and V1 at
IC1304/2 and 4. The input to these pins comes from IC1001 Control
Tuning System at pins 10 and 11. The following table shows the voltage
level at these pins for different input selections:
Input IC1304/2 V0 IC1304/4 V1
Tuner 0 Volts 0 Volts
Video 1 3.3 Volts 0 Volts
Video 2 0 Volts 3.3 Volts
Whichever input is selected will be output from IC1304/7 and then input to
IC1301/41.
The separate Y and C signals from the S video jack are input directly to
IC1301/2 and 4. If the input chosen is composite video, that signal will be
switched through the YCJ and output at pin 6. Pin 6 is the monitor out line
and would have the Y signal present at its output if an S video source
were chosen. This signal will be used by IC1001 Control Tuning System
for V Chip and Closed Captioning, and by IC1302 Digital Comb Filter.
Digital Comb Filter
The Digital Comb Filter is used when composite video inputs are used.
The composite video signal output at IC1301/6 is buffered and filtered by
Q1311, Q1312, FL1301 and Q1310. You should note that the chroma
signal has a very low amplitude at FL1303. The signal is then input to
IC1302/14 A In. There is also a 3.58 MHz clock signal output at IC1301/
43 FSC and input to IC1302/13. This signal is used by IC1302 Digital
Comb Filter for timing. The Digital Comb Filter has separate Y and C
outputs at pins 20 and 17, respectively. These signals are both buffered
and filtered before being re-input to IC1301 at pins 9 and 7.
Y/C Processing
The YCJ selects which Y and C signal to use for processing. If S video is
selected then the inputs at pins 2 and 4 are used. If composite video is
selected, the inputs at pin 7 and 9 are chosen. Whichever input is cho-
sen, the Y and C signals will be used to create the RGB outputs of IC1301.
These signals will eventually be sent to the tube cathodes.
The YCJ also contains an input for IK to control AKB. The YCJ samples
this signal and determines if each color’s cathode is drawing adequate
current. If the YCJ determines that there is a problem with the IK loop,
video will be blanked. IC1301 YCJ communicates this to IC1001 Control
Tuning System through the I²C bus. This IC will then flash the Standby/
Timer LED in sequences of five to indicate an IK problem.

RGB Drive
Overview
This section describes how the RGB signals are displayed by the picture
tube. In addition, we will discuss the IK/AKB circuit and how it functions in
the BA-5 chassis. Troubleshooting no video problems by using the IK
pulses output by the YCJ will also be covered.
IK Pulses and Video Blanking
When the set is turned ON and communication is established between
the YCJ and Syscon, IK pulses are output for each color. These pulses
are one horizontal line in duration and they occur during every field. They
are output so they occur on consecutive lines with red first, followed by
green and blue. They are buffered by Q1315, Q1316 and Q1317, and
applied to CN1303.
CN1303 is connected to CN705 on the CB board. The cable connecting
the two boards is hardwired and cannot be unplugged from either end.
The RGB signals that are applied to the CB board are input directly into
pins 1, 2 and 3 of IC702 CRT Drive. IC702 amplifies and inverts these
signals, and applies them to the cathode of the tube for their respective
colors. If the tube is biased correctly, three lines will be produced in the
overscan area of the picture tube.
IC702/5 IK outputs a voltage signal that represents the amount of total
current being drawn by the tube cathodes. Since each color is outputting
a pulse for one H line, in every field we would see a waveform like that
shown below at Q1350 or Q1331 Base. It is very hard to see this wave-
form at other places so it is recommended that you only check IK return
here.
Q1331/B 1v 5ms
Place your scope in delayed mode and highlight the area that appears to
be one pulse. Expand it and you will see that there are three distinct
pulses, one for each color. Your scope should be set to 5ms per division.
Some scopes that have less than 100MHz bandwidth may have trouble
triggering on these signals.
Once the IK detect circuit in the YCJ detects that the proper current is
flowing to each cathode, the video is unblanked and a picture may be
seen. The YCJ continues to monitor the IK IN line for the proper signal
levels. If there is a failure during operation, the Standby/Timer LED will
flash in sequences of five.
Tube Bias
The CRT requires high voltage and other biasing voltages to properly
display a picture. First it requires a heater voltage, which is developed by
the FBT (not shown) on the A board. The heater is necessary to heat the
cathode so that it can emit electrons. If it is missing, the cathode will not
emit electrons and consequently there would be no picture. The wave-
form below shows the signal at CRT pin 7 H1.
CRT Socket/7 20v 10us
The G1 input on the tube is a control grid. There are three separate pins
on the tube for G1. They are pins 6, 9 and 13. These pins are connected
together and tied to ground through R715. There is approximately -.01
volts present at these pins when no video is input.
G2 is also a control grid and is used to limit the acceleration of electrons
as they travel through the neck of the tube. These changes in the accel-
eration of the beam change the picture brightness. G2 measures about
316 volts on a 20” inch sample. This voltage will increase as screen size
increases. G2 is set by inputting a gray scale pattern and adjusting the
G2 VR on the FBT (not shown) so that the darkest bar is completely
black. This is done with Contrast set to max and Brightness set to the
midpoint.

blanking problems. Blanking can be caused by faulty IK or tube bias
operation.
Troubleshooting
The first step in troubleshooting is to determine if there is a tube bias
problem or an IK blanking problem. Use of the Self-Diagnostic feature
does not seem to be of any help here. You will know if you are in video
blanking if the Standby/Timer LED flashes continuously or in sequences
of five soon after turn ON. There should also be HV and sound present.
If no HV is present, the Standby/Timer LED should be flashing in se-
quences of two or four.
If a problem occurs with one of the colors, the set will remain in video
blanking mode. This means no video or OSD will be displayed. However,
the YCJ will continue to output these IK pulses. One possible method for
seeing these lines uses the Service Mode. You can enter Service Mode
by pressing “Display”, “5”, “Vol+”, then “Power”. After the set is ON, press
the “1” button 15 times. This will bring you to the VSIZ adjustment al-
though it will not be indicated on the display. Press the “6” button until the
IK lines are visible. If one of the colors is missing, troubleshoot the path
for that color. If all the colors are missing, you may have a faulty YCJ or
tube bias. Note: This method is only valid for BA-5 chassis.

Video Path 27” and above
Overview
The video path for the 27” inch and above models is very different from
the 24” inch and under models. The larger screen size models use the
MA board in place of the MB board. This allows for more inputs, including
component video and a 2nd tuner for PIP. There are also connections for
the additional boards used for PIP and 3D Comb Filter.
Inputs and Monitor Out
Larger BA-5 chassis sets can have up to six inputs. Video 1 and 2 inputs
can be composite and S Video. Video 3 input can be composite only.
Video 4 is component only. There are also inputs for two tuners. One
main is located on the A board and one sub is located on the MA board.
The signals are input by the jacks if it is a Video input and from the tuners
if it is broadcast video. All of these signals will be output from different
connectors on the A board to connectors on the MA board, with the ex-
ception of the sub tuner which is already located on the MA board. All
signals are input to the YCJ.
The YCJ contains switching circuits for component, composite and S Video.
The selected composite video or Y signals are output IC301/17 Mon Out.
If the selected signal is a composite video signal, it is sent to Q304 and
Q306 and then back to the A board for Monitor Out. It is also sent to the
B Board or to IC302 Digital Comb Filter. In the case of an S Video, the Y
Q304 and Q306 combine their signal with the C signal from IC301/19 with
the Y from IC301/17. The output from the transistors is a composite sig-
nal that will be sent to the A board for the Monitor Out jack J204. If the
component input is chosen, there will be no signal output from Monitor
Out.
Comb Filter
If a composite video signal is selected and output from IC301/17, it must
have the Y and C components separated. IC302 Digital Comb Filter or
the B board can do this. The B board is only used on the KV27FV16
model and contains a 3D Comb Filter. Whichever comb filter is used,
they will have the same effect on the signal path. They each take com-
posite video input and output separated Y and C. These Comb Y and
Comb C signals are then re-input to the YCJ at pins 22 and 20 respec-
tively.
Y/C Processing
IC301 YCJ then switches the correct Y and C input to the demodulator
circuits. If the composite source is chosen then the Comb Y and Comb C
at pins 22 and 20 are input to the demodulator. If one of the S video
inputs is chosen then Y and C from pins 12 and 11, or pins 15 and 14 are
selected.
The chosen signals are demodulated to YUV signals. Then there is an-
other switch that switches between these signals and the YUV inputs at
pins 50, 51 and 52. The chosen YUV signal is then mixed with the PIP
YUV inputs. These inputs also contain a Y SW signal at IC301/45 which
blanks the main picture for the proper size and position of the PIP win-
dow. This signal is then processed further, matrixed to RGB and output
from IC301/37, 38 and 39.
PIP
The models that have PIP will use the P board, which plugs directly into
the MA board. The P board accepts composite video from IC301/24 PIP
Out. If the input chosen for PIP by the user is S Video, the YCJ combines
the separate Y and C and outputs them as composite video from pin 24.
The PIP board will also accept inputs from the YUV component input.
When these signals are input to the P board, they are modulated to form
a composite video signal. This is because the PIP IC on the P board only
accepts composite video inputs. The PIP processor selects one of the
composite video inputs, digitizes, demodulates and compresses it. The
reduced YUV signal is output from CN305/12, 12 and 14, along with the Y
SW signal output from CN305/15. These YUV signals will be placed into
the main video YUV signals using the Y SW input.

Audio without K Board
Overview
The BA-5 chassis can contain one of two types of audio circuits depend-
ing on the model. One type uses the K board and the other does not.
Screen size is not a factor in the use of a K board. This section discusses
models that do not use the K board.
There are also two different audio amplifiers that can be used by the BA-
5 chassis. The one shown here is used in all models that output 5Wx2 or
less. The other audio output, which will be shown in the Audio With K
Board section, is used for models with at least 10Wx2 power output.
Switching
Models without the K board use separate audio switches, IC405 and IC406,
for each channel. The left channel is switched by IC405 and the right
channel is switched by IC406. These switches each have three audio
inputs and two-control line inputs. The control lines are the same ones
used in video switching on 24” and under models. The following table
shows the state of the control lines for the input selected:
Input IC405/406 S1 IC405/406 S2
Tuner 0 Volts 0 Volts
Video 1 3.3 Volts 0 Volts
Video 2 0 Volts 3.3 Volts
Whichever input is chosen is output from its respective IC at pin 7.
Audio Amp
The output from the switching circuit is applied to a RC network on each
channel. After passing through the RC network, the signals enter IC401
Audio Amp. IC401 Audio Out amplifies the input signals and outputs
them as a differential pair. These + signals are routed to CN407 and then
to CN408 both on the A board. This method is used because the Audio
amp is in the rear and the headphone jack is in the front of the A board.
The signal then passes through the headphones and back to CN407. If
there are headphones plugged into the headphone jack J401, the audio
will not be returned back. This may be useful for troubleshooting in the
event of a bad headphone jack.
The back signal to CN407 is then applied to the R+ or L+ speaker terminal
depending on which channel you are looking at. The R- and L- speaker
terminals are connected to the – outputs of IC401 Audio Amp.
Volume Control and Muting
Volume control is adjusted by varying a PWM waveform output from the
Syscon ICs O Vol pin. This signal is connected to CN2009/10 and ap-
plied through D403 to a filter network consisting of C440, C442 and R432.
These components smooth the PWM signal to a DC voltage. This DC
voltage is applied to IC401/1 VC1 and IC401/7 VC2. The DC voltage
determines the level of the signal output.
The mute circuit is also connected to IC401/1 VC1 and IC401/7 VC2.
When mute is called for, a HIGH signal is output from CN2002/9 Mute.
This HIGH turns Q410 ON and grounds the VC1 and VC2 terminals. This
reduces the audio to no volume. It should be noted here that these sets
have the Auto Mute feature. If a BA-5 chassis were tuned to a weak
station, the audio would be muted. When this occurs, No Signal will also
be displayed on the screen.
Q411 is a Power Off Mute transistor. It is configured so that when the set
is turned OFF, Q411 turns ON. This is possible because the + 9 volt line
holds voltage longer than the +12 volt line. When power is disconnected
and voltage remains on the 9-volt line, current flows between the B-E
junction of Q411. This turns the transistor ON and grounds the VC1 and
VC2 lines.

Audio with K Board
Overview
This section discusses the second type of audio circuit that uses the K
board. The K board allows for up to six different audio source inputs. It
also contains ICs that perform all necessary audio processing, including
volume control and SRS. SRS is not contained in all models that use the
K board. We will also discuss the second type of Audio Amp.
Audio Inputs and Processing
Larger BA-5 chassis sets can have up to six audio inputs, Video 1 through
4 and inputs for two tuners. No matter what source is chosen, both chan-
nels of audio are applied to the K board via CN460 and CN450. Then
both channels of all sources are applied to IC404 Audio Processor.
IC404 Audio Processor contains a switching network that will switch the
selected source to the various outputs. The selection is performed via I²C
commands from the Syscon. The audio selected is directly output from
IC404/11 and 30 Monitor Out. This signal will be sent to J204 Monitor Out
jack on the A board.
The signals will also be applied to the following internal circuits: AGC,
BBE, volume, matrix surround sound, tone and another volume circuit.
Data from the I²C bus will determine how much audio processing is per-
formed. The left and right signals are output for the Var/Fix Output at
J402 on the A board from IC404/ 12 and 29. The customer can select
from the menu if they want this output to be fixed or variable.
The outputs from IC404/13 and 28 are the main audio outputs of the set.
Depending on the model, this audio will be input to IC403 SRS or to the A
board for amplification. If the model contains SRS, these signals are
input at IC403/23 and 24. The audio is processed by the SRS circuit
using the two control outputs from IC404/22 and 23. These control out-
puts are used because IC403 SRS is not I²C compatible. IC403 then
outputs audio from pins 15 and 16.
Whether the unit contains the SRS IC or not, audio will eventually be
applied to CN450/5 and 6. From there it will go to the A board via CN460/
5 and 6.
Audio Amp
Once the audio is on the A board, it is applied to the same RC network
used on models without K boards. The values of the resistors in this case
will determine if the set will output 10x2 watts per channel or 15x2 watts
per channel. The signals are applied to IC402 using two pins for each
channel. The output is differential and follows the same path as models
without K boards. Some larger sets do not contain headphone jacks. If
the set does not, audio is applied to the speakers from the + outputs of
IC402. The – outputs of IC402 are applied to the – side of the speakers.

excessive voltage overshoot caused by the collapsing magnetic field of
Standby Power Supply T621 SRT and returns the excessive voltage to C629. When the field
collapses fully, current begins to flow through T621/1 and 3.

chassis. The operation of the Standby Power Supply in the BA-5 chassis
is identical, but component names are different.
Overview
The standby power supply is a switching power supply used to create
Standby 5V. The Standby 5V line is used to power the Tuning Micon and
EEPROM and any other circuits which need power when the set is OFF.
Converter Operation Q621/D - 50 mv, 10 us Q621/G - 1 V, 10 us

Operation of the Standby power supply begins when the set is plugged in.
The AC line voltage is applied across the standby power supply. The AC
low side is ground for this circuit. The AC high side is applied to a half
wave rectifier consisting of D621 and D622. Two diodes are used so that
there will be protection should one of them fail. This voltage is then ap-
plied to T621/1 SRT Input through R639. R639 is a fusible resistor used
for current limiting and failure protection. It will open if the standby switch-
ing circuit draws excessive current. Please note that the board has T621
SBT silk-screened on it. This differs from the service manual, which calls
T621 SRT.
When the voltage is applied to T621/1 SRT Input, current flows through
the winding and R631 to Q621/G. Q621 Converter is a FET with added
protection. When a positive voltage is applied to the gate, it begins to
conduct drain to source. This reduces the voltage at T621/3 to close to
zero. Normally this would reduce the voltage at Q621/G, but a voltage is
supplied to the gate through R632 and C630 from T621/4. This voltage is
induced into the secondary winding of T621/4 when current flows through
the winding between T621/1 and T621/3. The voltage is not permanent
due to C630. As C630 charges, it reduces the voltage at Q621/G. Once
this voltage falls below a certain threshold, Q621 Converter turns OFF.
Once Q621 Converter turns OFF, all polarities are reversed. This rever-
sal of polarity helps speed up turn OFF of Q621. D623, along with C631
and R640, form a snubber network (voltage clamp). This network clamps
Q621/S - 1 V, 10 us
Regulation
Changing the frequency of the switching regulates the output voltage at
the secondary winding comprised of T621/8 and 9. Taking a sample volt-
age from T621/4 and applying it to rectifiers D624 and D625 does this. As
this voltage rises and falls, the rectified voltage is applied to Q622/B through
R634. When Q622 begins to conduct, it lowers the voltage at Q621/G
and changes the switching frequency.
The changing frequency will change the amount of voltage coupled to the
secondary winding consisting of T621/8 and 9. If the load on the second-
ary output increases, the frequency of switching will decrease. This brings
the frequency of the converter closer to the optimum operating frequency
of T621 SRT. Moving closer to this optimum frequency causes more
voltage to be provided at T621/9. The opposite occurs when the load on
the supply decreases. This causes the frequency of operation to be in-
creased and the amount of voltage coupled to T621/9 to be decreased.
The supply typically operates at 45 kHz when the set is OFF and at about
30 kHz when the set is operating. The incoming line voltage also effects
the frequency of switching operation.

Over Current Protection (OCP)
Monitoring the voltage across R637 is used for over current protection.
This voltage is representative of the amount of current flowing through
Q621 Converter since it is in series with the transistor. If this voltage
should rise to .6 volts, it will cause Q622 to turn ON. If Q622 were to turn
ON, it would shunt Q621/G voltage to ground. This would cause Q621
Converter to stop conducting.
Over Voltage Protection (OVP)
Over voltage protection is done by rectifying the voltage at T621/6 with
D627. This voltage is filtered by C636 and applied to D626 through R638.
If this voltage should rise above 6.2 volts, D626 begins to conduct. When
its conduction allows Q622 Protect to turn ON, over voltage protection is
employed. Q622 Protect turns ON and grounds Q621/G, which stops the
converter from switching.
D699 is also used for OVP. The signal from T621/4 is rectified by D698.
This creates a negative voltage across C699. If this negative voltage
becomes great enough, D699 conducts and the Q621/G voltage is brought
lower.
Secondary Output
The power coupled through T621 SRT places a voltage on T621/9 that,
when rectified and filtered by D628 and C637, is 7.2 volts. This voltage is
constant due to the regulation circuit on the primary side of T621 SRT.
This 7.2 volts is applied to Q646/E for backup during the start of regula-
tion by the regular power supply.
It is also applied to IC622 5-Volt Regulator, which regulates its output to 5
volts. This 5 volts is sent to CN641/10 which connects to the A board and
powers the Tuning Micon and other circuits. It is also applied to RY600
Power Relay.
Checking Q621
Testing a MOSFET device is simple. The leads show infinite resistance
to each other except for drain to source in one direction because of the
presence of a protection diode.
To prove the device is functional:
1. Connect the negative lead of the ohmmeter to the SOURCE lead.
2. Touch the ohmmeter positive lead to the gate, to pre-charge it.
3. Connect the ohmmeter positive lead to the DRAIN. If the device is
good you will get a resistance reading of about 400-1k ohms.
Some DVMs do not produce enough DC voltage in the ohms mode. The
diode check mode can be used with these models. When using the diode
mode, a low voltage drop is shown after pre-charging the gate.
