2. Volume adjustment, sound field processing and EQ adjustment
circuits.
All channel signalsare sent toN402 inside whichthe independent volumeadjustment,
EQ adjustment andall sound fieldmodes process areperformed.
The sound fieldprocessing and EQadjusting circuit ismainly processing theL&R
channel signals.According to theschematic diagram, theL&R channel signalsare
added simultaneously tothe pins 15,17, 13 and16 of N402.When the unitmode is in
the Hi-Fi mode,the internal circuitof the pins17&16 is connectedand the otherinput
signals are cutoff.At this time,only the L&Rchannel volume canbe adjusted andonly
the pins 31&32send out signals.Therefore, theunit is inthe 2CH outputmode. The
unit mode isnot in theHi-Fi mode, otherinput signals areconnected but thepins
17&16 signals arecutoff.At this time,all channel volumescan be adjusted
independently and thesound field processingor EQ adjustingof the L&Rchannels
can be performed.Finally,all channel signalspass out fromthe pins 31,32, 33, 34,
35&36. TheSW channel signalfrom the pin36 reaches theamplified speakers tobe
amplified through theSW output terminals.Other channel signalsreach to thepower
st
amplifying circuit tobe amplified.The L&R channelsignals will gothrough 1 grade
LPF and MIXamplification (Karaoke signalsare overlapped intoL& R channels).
3. Input signals detect, search and frequency spectrum sampling cir
cuits
3.1 Input signalsdetect and searchcircuit: Thesix channel signallines of theinput IC
N402 are connectedwith 100K samplingresistors R533, R534,R657, R676 andR678
respectively.The signalsare mixed bythese resistors andadded to theopposite-phase
input terminal tobe amplified. VD431and C481 connectedto N403B's outputend
constitute half-wave rectifyingfilter circuit.Then the signalsreach the voltagecomparer
composed of N403A.The outputend of N403A(SEARCH)is connected tothe pin 28of
CPU. Thiscontrol signal isthe search anddetect signal: whenit is lowlevel, it entersthe
search mode; whenit is highlevel, it stopssearching. Its worksas follows:
3.1.1 When thisunit is gettingstarted, theA&B control signalsfrom the pins38&39 in
the domination ofthe CPU's interprogram are addedto the inputselect circuit to
search circularly once.When there areno signals inthese four inputconnectors, the
VCD mode stopsautomatically.When there aresignals in oneof the fourconnectors,
AC signals willappear in allchannels of theinput N402.These ACsignals are
amplified by N403Band rectified andfiltered by VD434and C481 tobecome DC
signals. Atthis time, theopposite-phase voltage ofN403A is0.01V.When this DC
voltage surpasses 0.01V, the outputend of N403Bsends out ahigh level (SEARCH)
close to positivepower supply voltage(A+6V) which reachesthe pin 28of CPU. CPU
keeps searching inthe connector inwhich there areinput signals andthe unit willplay
normally.
1.2.2 When pressthe SEARCH onthe front panel,CPU sends outA&B control
signals again tostart searching. Meanwhile,the pin 27(EX) sends outa high level
which makes V446inductive. Theemitter of V446sends out ahigh level whichpasses
through R498 whichmakes the opposite-phasevoltage of N403Ato be 0.4V. Thatis
to say, if youwant to stopsearching of CPU,the gained voltageafter the inputsignals
are rectified andfiltered must exceed0.4V.This voltageis higher than0.01V when
this unit isgetting started inorder to avoidthat the CPUreceives signals mistakenly
and stops searchingdue to thelarge external interferencesignals. If theinput signals'
amplitude is nothigh enough, CPUwill continue searching.When the amplitudeis
high enough, N403Asends out highlevel to thepin 28 tostop searching.The pin 27
(EX) will becomelow level againand the opposite-phasevoltage of N403Awill also
returns back to0.01V.The wholesearching process isfinished.

1. A+25Vpasses C941 andR983 and addsan instantaneous high level at the Pin 12 of
N907D when thisunit gets started. According to the above characteristics, the Pin 14 sends
out a voltagewhich is comparatively closer to the voltage of the power supply B+23V. This
voltage measures about+17V and is fed back to the Pin 12 through R960. Then this voltage
is divided intoabout +8.5V by the resistor R959. That is to say, the inphasevoltage of the
calculating amplifier N907Dkeeps at about +8.5V. At thesame time, +8.5V is divided by
VD903, R971 andR972 and the voltage of the Pin13 of N907D measures about +7.5V. That
is to say, the inphaseopposition of N907D keeps at about +7.5V. At this moment, the inphase
voltage (ca +8.5V)of the calculating amplifier N907D is higher than the inphase opposition
voltage (ca +7.5V).The output Pin 14 also keeps at about +17V. Therefore, the above status
retains. The Pin 14's high level of +17V passes R961 and reaches the display screen and
lightens the VCDindicator. The 0 level is obtained at the controllers A&B of theelectronic
switch in theinput circuit. According to the real value table, the electronic switch elects the
VCD input mode.C941 is the open restoration capacitor because of which the input mode
is switched tothe default VCD. The inphase opposition voltage of another three calculating
amplifiers is +7.5V(Their inphase opposition ports are connected together), but the positive
voltage doesn't existin the inphase ports. According to the voltage comparing characteristics,
there is notthe high level output in the inphase opposition ports. The other three input modes
are shut off.
2. When weselect other input modes, for instance, selecting DVD mode, we press the switch
S903. The voltage of B+23V passes R984, S903 and R965 and is divided into about +18V
voltage which issent to the inphase port of N907A. At the same time, the +18V voltage is
divided by VD905,R971 and R972 and there is about +17V level input at the inphase
opposition port ofN907A. The high level from N907A is fed back by R966. When loosening
S903, N907's workingvoltages (The working principle is the same as that in the above-
mentioned VCD mode.)are as follows: +8.5V at inphase port, +7.5V at inphase opposition
port, +17V atoutput port. As mentioned before, the inphase opposition port's voltage is +17V
when the switchis turned on. This voltage also reaches the calculating amplifier N907in the
VCD mode. Becausethe inphase port of N907D remains +8.5V and the inphase opposition
port increases to+17V, the original outputmode is breached and the high level cannot be
sent out. Therefore, the VCD mode is shut off. Atthis moment, the high level of +17V of
N907A's output isdivided into two lines: One line is sent to the display screen by R967 to
lighten the DVDindicator. Another line is divided by VD908, R974 and R975 and sent to the
Port B ofthe electronic switch in the input circuit. Now, the Port A of N401 is 0level and the
Port B ofN401 is 1 level. According to the real value table, the electronic switch selects the
DVD mode, andthe whole process is finished. When selecting other modes and pressing
other switches, thecaused motions are the same as above ones.

6.2.1 Channel selection section.
When this unitgets started, +5V is charged by C943 and adds an instantaneous high level
at the PortS. The Port R is grounded and is low level. According to the real value table,the
Port Q sendsout high level and the Port Q' sends out low level. Although the Port S becomes
low level becauseC943 is full of charges, the Port D still keeps the original output modes for
it stays inlow level caused by the connection between the Ports Q and Q'. The high level of
the Port Qof N908A is about 5V and reaches the inphase port of N910 through R1015.
However, theinphase opposition of N910A is about 1.6V. Thereby, the output port of N910A
sends out highlevel according to the voltage comparison characteristics. The level is sent
by R1016 tothe display screen to lighten 2CH indicator. This unit switches to the 2CH mode
automatically when itgets started.
When pressing theswitch S905, a triggered high level is sent to CLK. The output mode is
revered. Port Qbecomes low level and Port Q' becomes high level. Because Port Q' is
connected to PortD, Port D also remains high level. Let go the switch S905, the input mode
remains due tothe reaction of Port D. Because Port Q is low level, the positive voltage of the
inphase opposition ofN910A will disappear. According to the voltage comparison characteri-
stics, there's nohigh level sent out from the output port of N910A and thus the 2CH mode is
shut off. Meanwhile, the high level passes through R989 and reaches the inphase port of
N911A. The high level from the output of N911A isdivided by R990 into two lines: One line
reaches the displayscreen to lighten the 5CH indicator. Another line reaches to the amplifi-
cation circuit viaVD916 to switch on the multi-channel output relay Y402. The channels C,
SR, SL are opened and there will be 5CH outputs. Whenpressing the switchS905, the output
mode is reversedonce and returns to the 2CH mode.
6.2.2 The MIC delay selection section.
Its working principleis approximately the same to the channel selection. The difference is
that output Qand Q' will be divided into two lines: One line is sent to the voltage comparer.
Another line issent to thePins 4&6 of the echo processing IC N905 to control the delay time
of MIC signalsin the echo circuit.

6.3 The spectrum analysis section (Figure 9)
We have mentioned a LEVELsignal in Chapter 4 Volume, Tone and Balance Adjusting
Circuits. That signal is the spectrum analysis source. It was sent to 6-band spectrum level
display circuit composedof 6 voltage comparers: N911D, N911C, N911B, N912D, N912C
and N912B.

LEVEL
The detailed workingprocess: The inphase opposition voltages of these six voltage
comparers have theircorresponding voltages respectively for the distributing resisters
are connected differently. We call these separate voltages valve voltages: N912Bca 0.2V,
N912Cca 0.4V, N912Dca 0.8V, N911Bca 1.6V, N911Cca 3.5V, N911Dca 5.2V. It's obvious
that their valvevoltages increase by degrees. The LEVEL signal is coupled byR1010,
commutated and filteredby VD911 and C946. The output DC voltage isadded at theinphase
port of thesesix voltage comparers. According to the voltage comparison characteristics,
when the sourcesignal's voltage surpassesthe valve voltage, the corresponding voltage
comparer's outputs willexport high level to lighten the display screen's illuminant. For
instance, when inputsignal's voltage is 0.3V which exceeds the inphase opposition port's
0.2V valve voltageof the bottom N912B. Then the output of N912B exports high level to
lighten the bottommostilluminant on the display screen. On the other hand, 0.3V voltage
does not exceedthe valve voltageof another five voltage comparers, so they will not export
high level. Neitherthe display screen can be lightened. When the input signal exceeds 5.3V
which is beyondthe valve voltageof these six voltage comparers. Therefore, these six
voltage comparers' outputports will sent out high level and all six-band illuminants on the
display screen arelightened to achieve maximum display. Because the music signals are
changing continuously, these six illuminants will rise or fall accompanying with strong or
weak music signals.This is the basic working principle of the spectrum display circuit.

7 Power Amplification and Protection Circuits
The power amplificationcircuit is this unit's hard core which is working under high voltage
and large currentvolume, so its failure rate is very high. A protection circuit is added to the
power amplification's outputto protect the amplifier and speakers' circuits. In addition, a
multi-channel switching circuitis also connected to the output of AB217. We take the R
channel as anample to analyzethe circuit as shown in the figure 10.

7.2.3 Short Circuit over-current Protection
The channel R'soutput end isparallel connected with a over-current sampling triode V421.
R415 and R416are over-current samplingresistor. When current soars up sharply due to
short circuit, thepotential difference between R415 and R 416 also increases. The current
passes to thebase and emitter of V421 through R433 and R434. When their potential differ-
ence is beyond0.7V, V421 is conducted and its collector's potential decreases. Finally, the
current passes VD405and R443 to make V425 conducted and thus the relay is shut off.

7.3 Multi-channel Control Circuit
In the frontpanel circuit introductions, we have explained that when we choose the multi-
channel output mode,N911A's output end sends out high level which reaches the base of
a compound tubecomposed of V434and V435 through R441. V434 and V435 are
conducted and thereis current in the coil Y402. Y402 is switched on. Channels C, SR and
SL pick up signals from channels R and L and then send them out.

7.1 Power amplification section
The R channelsignals are coupled by R401 and C401 and sent to the base of difference
amplification section V401.V401 and V402 comprise the difference amplification circuit
of single inputand output. The sound signal is sent from the collector of V401 to the base
of the voltageamplification section V404. The amplified signals reach the compound power
amplification section. V403,V405, VD401 and VD402 constitute the mirror image constant
circuit. VD401 andVD402 provide a constant base current to V403 and V405. The emitter
resistor of V403determines the working current of the difference amplification section and
the V405's emitterresistor determines the working current of the voltage amplification section.
V430, V407 andV409 constitute the upper tube (NPN) of the compound power amplification
section. V430 andV407 are first parallel-connected to function as a triode (To raise the power)
and then compoundV409 to constitute a NPN type compound tube (To make amplification
multiplied). V431, V408and V410 constitute the bottom tube (PNP) of the compound power
amplification. Its circuitconstruction is the same as that of the upper tube except that it's PNP
typed after compounding.The temperature compensation section V406 has the following two
functions in thecircuit: First, it is composed of the voltage reversed triodes of the same
parameters, so itsworking mode determines the static working current of the compound power
amplification section. That is to say, we can set up the staticworking point ofcompound power
amplification section throughadjusting the V406 conducting level. The usual way is to change
the base resistorof V406. Second, it functions as automatically adjust the working mode of the
compound power amplificationsection when temperature rises. The adjusting process goes
as follows:
TOTAL OUTPUT CURRENT = WORKING CURRENT + LEAK CURRENT
When temperature rises,the leak current increases thus the total current increases (un-
favorable condition).At the same time, the base current of V406 increases and Uce
decreases thus theoutput section's bias current decreases. Therefore, the working status
changes and theback working current decreases. The total current is limited in acertain range.
7.2 Protection Circuit
The protection ofthe power amplifier'soutput section isperformed by arelay series connect-
ed between theoutput end andthe speaker.The power amplifying circuit is not stable when
getting started andan impact currentoutput will occur. If the output end has already been
connected to thespeaker when gettingstarted, BOO soundwill come outof the speaker.
This is veryharmful to thespeaker. Therefore, we serial connect a relay between the output
end and speaker. In this way, when this unit is getting started, the relay is switched off and
the output endand the speakerwill not beconnected and thusthe impact currentwill not
occur. The relay will open only when the circuit works stably. Therefore, the protection is
realized. In asimilar way, when thecircuit goes wrong and a high voltage and large current
will occur inthe output end,the protection circuitwill also cutoff the relay to realize the
protection function.AB217 boasts itsthree protection functions:delay switch-on protection
circuit, midpoint over-voltageprotection circuit and short circuit over-current protection
circuit. The working power of the protection circuit comes from a half-wave commutating
circuit composed ofVD408 and C418.It's about +26V.

7.2.1 Delay switch-on protection circuit
When this unitis getting started,+26V passes throughR447 to chargeC417. The positive
end voltage ofC417 increases slowly. When the voltage supersedes 12V, VD409 (12V
voltage regulator diode)is penetrated andits negative endoutputs high levelwhich makes
the compound tubecomposed of V426and V427 conductive.Therefore, their collectors'
potential is draggeddown and thereis current inthe relay Y401. The relay is switched on.
The delay timedepends on theconstant of R447and C417 chargingtime. The positive end
voltage of C417is a keypoint through detectingwhich whether thereis the voltageover +12V
to judge whetherthe whole protectioncircuit is started.When there isa voltage over+12V
and the relayis not switchedon, it indicatesthat the problemonly exists inthe back compon-
ents VD409, V426,V427 and Y401. When there is a voltage below +12 and the relay is
switched on, itindicates that theprotection circuit isstarted and youneed only tocheck the
corresponding circuits.

7.2.2 Midpoint Over-voltage Circuit
A midpointover-voltage sampling resistorR462 is connected to the output end of Channel
R (Channel Lis R461). Becausethe power amplifyingcircuit is providedby twin power
supplies, the outputend usually has two conditions: positive or negative voltage. They will
be analyzed respectivelyas follows. This protection circuit's protecting range is the voltage
above +4V orbelow 4V.
When the outputend voltage surpasses +4V, the base receives a voltage above+0.7V
due to thevoltage division byR462 and R445. V424 is conducted and the collector's
potential is draggeddown.
When the outputend voltage is below 4V, the baseof V423 receivesa voltage below 0.7V
due to thevoltage division byR462 and R445. V423 is conducted and the collector's
potential is draggeddown..
According to theabove statements, the collector's voltage will be dragged down whether
the output endpotential is over +4V or below 4V. This low potential passes R444and
makes the base'svoltage of V425 decrease. V425 is conducted and thus its emitter's
voltage decreases. That is to say, the positive end voltage of C417 decreases and the
relay is shutoff, thus the protection function starts.
