shouldbe ~ 350mA (EB only).
3. Protection Circuitry
The protection circuitrymayhave operatedif eitherof the following conditions are noticed:
-Nosound isheard when the power isturned on.
-Sound stops during aperformance.
The function of this circuitryis toprevent circuitrydamage if, forexample, the positive and
negative speakerconnection wires are
“shorted”, orif speakersystems withanimpedance less thanthe indicatedratedimpedance of
the amplifierare used.
If this occurs, followthe procedure outlines below:
1. Turn off the power.
2. Determine the cause of the problem and correct it.
3. Turn on the power once againafter one minute.
Note :
Whenthe protection circuitryfunctions, the unit will not operate unless the poweris first turned
off and thenon again.
4. Prevention of Electro Static Discharge (ESD) to
Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices
Some semiconductor(solidstate) devices canbe damagedeasilybyelectricity. Such
components commonlyare calledElectrostaticallySensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of typical
ES devices are integratedcircuits and some field-effect transistors and semiconductor“chip”
components. The following techniques shouldbe usedtohelpreduce the incidence of
component damage causedbyelectrostatic discharge (ESD).
1. Immediatelybefore handling anysemiconductor component or
semiconductor-equipped assembly, drainoff anyESDon your
bodybytouching aknownearth ground. Alternatively, obtainand
wear acommerciallyavailabledischarging ESDwrist strap, which
shouldbe removed for potential shock reasons prior to applying
power to the unitunder test.
2. After removing an electrical assemblyequipped with ES devices,
place the assemblyon aconductive surface such as aluminium
foil, to prevent electrostaticcharge buildup or exposure of the
assembly.
3. Use onlyagrounded-tipsoldering iron to solder or unsolder ES
devices.
4. Use onlyan anti-staticsolder remover device. Some solder
removal devices not classified as “anti-static(ESDprotected)”
