CAMERA UNIT (CAMERA PCB)
The camera unit is composed a lens, color filter, CCD (IC802), driver (IC800) and signal processor (IC802).
It produces voltages R, B, and G, for the colors red, blue, and green when light from a scene is focused on
the surface. These voltage values vary according to the intensity of the respective color being scanned.
The camera unit must be replaced with whole unit when it is defective, because the precise adjustment is
required when the individual parts are replaced, and can be done only at our factory.
CIRCUIT OPERATIONS
1Lens
Concentrates light rays to a point.
2Color filter
The striped color filter in front of the CCD detector is used to provide color information.
It has three colors, yellow, green and cyan.
Array of color filter and signal processing (IC801) for camera are extremely close relationship.

Digital PCB is composed Microprocessor (IC600), D RAM (IC601), Flash Memory (IC602), Gate Array (IC700),
and V RAM (IC701).
Microprocessor controls the CCD, D RAM, Flash Memory and key operation. Gate array compresses data
for the color and the luminance from the CCD to increase the number of memory, and up to 96 images can
be stored in flash memory. The color and the luminance data are mixed in the gate array to make the video
signal.
As to spare parts for digital PCB, Casio supplies PCB ass'y and the individual parts.

It is used for encoder function.
4Flash Memory
Up to 96 images can be stored in memory. Flash memory does not require electrical power to store data,
so image data is retained in memory even when you turn camera power off.
If batteries go dead, simply load a set of new batteries or connect the AC adaptor and you will be able to
view images in camera memory.

Each picture element electrode is controlled by a transistor. To the gate electrodes, the gate pulse is applied
timesharing. VCOM voltage is applied to the common electrodes.
The above figure shows the operation of TFT-LCD. If the gate pulse is not applied to the gate electrodes,
the transistors do not operate even when the potential difference is given between the common electrodes
and source electrodes, and no effect is given to the liquid crystal. If the gate pulse is applied to Y1, the
transistorT1 is in operation during a priod of t1, and voltage of source electrode of Va is applied to the LCD
layer of picture element A, then electric charges are stored in the picture element of A. After the period of
t1, T1 is turned off, and voltage in the LCD layer of A is held until next gate pulse comes, but it drops little
by little through off leak resistance of TFT and leak resistance of LCD itself.
BACK LIGHT
The camera unit is equipped with a fluorescent light source to provide the back lighting for its LCD. The
normal service life of the backlight is approximately six years, when the camera is used for about two hours
a day.
The backlight is consumption items, so even under guarantee replace it under charge basis.

DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY
Disassembly
1. Remove two screws L.
2. Remove two screws O.
3. Take the upper case 2and the battery cover A.
4. Disconnect two connectors CN602 and CN603.
5. Remove two screws N.
6. Take out the camera unit J.
Assembly
Assembly of the QV-10 can be performed in the reverse order of the disassembly steps.
Points of assembly work and procedure.
1. Not to damage the slide switch.
Gently set the switch knob to the point of the slide switch.
Confirm that the point of the slide switch is inserted into the switch knob.
Push the upper case in the direction of the lower case.
