2.2.2 Power Management
The power management module is PMU IC:MT6320.
2.2.2.1 Mobile power supply system
DC-DC:

2.2.3 Audio Section
2.2.3.1 Audio Codec Circuit
This phone applies YD165 which is a class D and non-crack noise YAMAHA amplifier to drive speaker.
Block diagram of the audio system is as below:

Page 13 of 22
2.2.3.2 MIC& Receiver Loop
MIC Audio path is shown below:MIC must have a bias voltage in order to operate normally——2.0±
0.1V. When MIC is in good condition but loop MIC has no echo, then you need to check the basic bias
voltage signal of the MICBIASP and MICBIASSP, the language signals of the RECEIVER and MIC also
need to be checked.
Receiver loop is simple. The output of BB drive Receiver directly through Filter and ESD protected
network, as shown below:

Page 14 of 22
2.2.3.3 Headset Loop
Headset loop includes two signals: Headset speaker and MIC,If the headset fitting were in good condition,
when the headset plug in, it appears abnormal, such as: The Headset speaker has no sound、the MIC is
invalid. All this need to check the access conditions of the circuit above.

2.2.4 Baseband Fault issues
Maintenance process of the download failure Issues:
Download Fail
Check to see if it is caused by other
factors such as: configuration, download
cable, power supply, software and PC
Exclude the reason of
download failure
caused by other factors
Yes
Check to see if the serial ports between
pc and cell phone is smooth
Check if the system
connector is poor
soldered or damaged.
NO
NO
Check the resistance,
capacitance and the
EDC devices between
the system connector
and the CPU.
NO
Connect the download cable then
observe the Ammeter to see if it
shows high current(The normal
current generally about 30mA)
Yes
Quickly disconnect the
connection, and gently
touch the chip to see if it is
hot. If not, then focus point
using the multi-meter to
measure the short circuit.
Yes
Check the power manager and open the
LDO to see if the voltage supply is
normal and whether there is power
supply circuit open.
Little or no current
Check VCORE、VDD、VADD、VTCXO、
VRTC、VMEM、Measure the clock signal of
26MHZ、32KHZ.
Current normal but download fail
Check CPU and NAND FLASH、SDRAM to
see if they are OK and the LDO is normal.

2.2.4.1 Analysis of the keyboard fault
This handset has 3 side keys. All the keyboard circuits use the scanning method to detect
except the power button .When a button is pressed the scanning signal will be triggered, then
the corresponding row and column will be detected. The function of the key can be identified
according to software definition.
a. The cell phone can power on ,but all the keys are invalid.
In general, this situation is caused by some key short-circuit, the equivalent of a
long pressing this button.
At this point ,you should analyze the following first:
⑴Check the connector external exclusion and varistor to see if they short-circuit.
⑵Then ,check the connector to see whether it is short-circuit when it is welded.
b. Failure of a single button
This situation needs to check whether the beneath of the DOME key is dirty. If the
problem still exists, you have to check whether the circuit is open.
c. Failure of a few buttons
This situation is usually caused by a short-circuit row or column. Checking the
interface circuit to see if it has open weld phenomena and detect the
disconnected phenomena of the resistance.

2.2.4.2 Analysis of Display module circuit
Display module use the 5.0"FHD LCD.
2.2.4.3 FM Module
FM adopts the design of MT 6628.

Page 18 of 22
2.2.4.4 Camera Module
This module uses the 5million pixel front camera and 13 million pixel rear camera,
connecting to baseband chip through connector. The welding of the connector is the main
reason for the camera malfunction.
Camera Interface Circuit:
5million pixel front camera
13 million pixel rear camera
Power supply circuit : VGP2_PMU _1.8V for camera I/O port, VGP1_PMU 提供 1.5V for
camera core, VCAMA_PMU _2.8V for analog power.

2.2.4.5 IO Interface
IO applies 5pin standard interface,which realize the functions of USB, charging and
download.
2.2.4.6 SIM Card Circuit
Switch of dual SIM cards is integrated into baseband.
SIM Card Tray
