2) RF Amplifier
I and J signals being I-J converted in the pickup are entered to 1 and 2 pins. Then, their difference signal (group
signal) and sum signal (bit signal) are generated on RFA1 and RFA2, respectively.
RFA2 and RFA3 are switching operational amplifiers. The amplifiers detect high reflection (Premastered) and low
reflection (Recordable) using the disc detector switch (S404) to switch to the gain selected by the serial command
HLPT or PTGR.
RF signal (46 pin) is operated and conducted to the AGC circuit and equalizer via C122 to generate RF signal (36 pin).
RF signal is maintained essentially at a constant level (approximately at 1.1 Vpp) by the AGC circuit.
This signal is entered to the signal processing LSI (IC201: 55 pins) for the data processing as well as control of the
Premastered Disc playing spindle.
1) APC (Automatic Power Control) Circuit
Since laser diode (LD) has temperature characteristics, the APC circuit is provided to control current flow using the
monitor diode so that the output may be kept at a constant level.
LD current is determined by measuring voltage across V1 and 3VD.
The current value should be approximately 40 mA (0.4V/10
Ω
).
