Faults in the Dolby Pro-Logic Circuit
In the case of an incorrectly operating or dead set, the Dolby Pro-Logic PWB can be ruled out by
disconnecting it from the main PWB. This is easily achieved by disconnecting the large multi-way cable
from the main PWB. The set should start up normally, but there will be no sound if the television has
been set to external speakers.

Sometimes the television may appear to be dead due to the failure of the Dolby Pro-Logic power
supply. Invariably Q1701 will have failure, the +/-17V rectifier diodes (D1708 and D1710) as well as
some or all of the output devices – IC1302, IC1303, IC1304 and IC1305.
Some problems are customer generated especially when it is related to user settings. One of the most
common is that the set is not configured for external speakers (no sound from the external speakers)
or that the set has not been set up for Dolby Pro-Logic which results in no Pro Logic Function. Refer
to the operation manual for more information on this.
There are differences between the Dolby Pro-Logic PWB fitted to the FW and GF range of television
receivers. The fundamental circuits are identical, however the sub-woofer speaker drive signal is
taken from the MSP (IC305 pin 31) and not the Dolby Pro-Logic processor. As the MSP is used to
drive the sub-woofer drive IC, its impedance is different, which means that the matching circuit
comprising of Q1304 is different to the FW models. This also means that the software is different
between the models. The GF models also have a speaker mounted in the read cover, this is a sub-
woofer speaker and is driven from the sub-woofer drive amplifier (IC1305).

Control and Communication
As with all current Sharp television chassis, the microprocessor (CPU) is responsible for the control of
the set, communicating with all other areas of the chassis via various data buses. Similar to other
chassis the CPU does not operate during standby. As there needs to be some form of control on the
primary side of the power supply, a slave processor is used. This slave processor has a volatile
memory, therefore each time power is applied to the television the switch mode powers supply has to
start, enabling the slave processor program to be downloaded from the OTP before switching to
standby.

There are several types of communication lines that provide information to the CPU, and are used to
control the various devices connected to it. These are as follows.

I2C Bus
There are two I2C buses, I2C(2) is used to communicate with the NVM’s (EPROM’s), these devices

Slave
There are two data lines that communicate with the slave processor located on the primary side of the
power supply. As this has to be isolated, communication is via two opto-couplers. IC703 is used to
send information to IC702 and opto-coupler IC704 is used for the return path.

Reset Operation
It can be seen from the diagram below that all of the reset signals are a change in state, either from
low to high or high to low. The order of events is as shown, supply, reset in, reset out (1), reset out (2).
The horizontal oscillator will not start until reset out (1) has occurred. Even though IC801 generates
the horizontal drive signal, it will not be present until the mute has been released (HOUT=0V)

Audio Output
The outputs from all of the audio output stages are fed to the base of Q303 and Q304. C377 and
R361 form an averaging circuit. As the output voltage fed to the speakers should have an average DC
of 0V over a period of time, the DC voltage at the base of these transistors should be zero. If this
base voltage were to increase in a positive direction Q303 will turn on, removing the bias from IC1001
pin 100, and the television will switch to standby. The same is true if the base voltage increases
negatively, this time Q304 will turn on, turning on Q302 causing IC1001 pin 100 to fall and the
television will again switch two standby.

Beam Current
If the beam current increases, D622 will conduct due to the ABL sense pin of T601 (earth return of
the EHT over-winding) going more negative, Q606 will turn on. This will remove the bias from IC1001

Horizontal Mute
During the boot sequence the horizontal drive is muted by the HOUT signal from the microprocessor
(IC1001 pin 57). Its function is to remove the horizontal drive by turning on Q607, thus placing a
short between the horizontal drive signal and ground, at the same time this HOUT pulse will cause the
audio mute circuits to activate, preventing any noise from the speakers during start up and shut down.
HOUT will also occur when the microprocessor cannot communicate with the other devices connected
to the I2C buses
(IC1001 pin 57). Its function is to remove the horizontal drive by turning on Q607, thus placing a
