SERVICE NEWSLETTER
06.01 TYPENUMBER(S): AE3350

SYMPTOM : Batteries run out quickly.

CURE : A transistor (Q7) and a resistor 1kΩ (R17) were added since week
9636 to protect the audio IC from wrong polarity of external DC
supply.
The grounding end of R17 is wrongly connected to the ground before
the power switch, so that a current of 2.5mA is drawn in the power
“OFF” condition.
To solve the problem, remove R17 and connect a 1kΩ resistor from
the base of Q7 to the negative (-) of C43.

REMARKS : Modification has been implemented in production from week 9745

1. Introduction

Set CDR870

With the introduction of the Philips CDR870 CD-Recorder it is possible to make your
audio CD at home. Of course the set can also playback pre-recorded audio CD’s like the
well-known audio CD-player. Recordings can be made from, as well as analogue, as
digital audio sources.
Applications:
• Compose your own digital audio recordings and compilations at home.
• Create your compilations to enjoy your favourite music in car, cd-soundmachine and
other portable CD-players.

2. The CD-Recordable system

The CD-Recordable system consists of a CD-Recordable player and the exchangeable


software carrier CD-Recordable disc.
As the read out system for an audio recorded CD-Recordable disc is the same as for the
conventional CD-Audio, the recorded CD-Recordable disc can be played back on any
existing CD-Audio player.

All CD systems, like CD-Audio, CD-ROM, CD-i, CD-ROM XA, Photo CD, Video CD are
pre-recorded systems, and lack the facility of recording as enjoyed by tape systems. CD-
Recordable systems address this deficiency.

CD-Recordable

CD-Recordable, a so called Write Once principle, has the advantage of full compatibility
with all pre-recorded CD Systems.

The key to CD-Recordable is an organic dye coating (the photo absorption layer) applied
over a substrate containing a wobbled tracking groove. The wobble frequency of the
groove is FM modulated with timecode information. The average wobble frequency is
used to control the turntable motor speed, while the timecode information is used to
position recordings on the disc. This groove, often called: “pre-groove”, guides the laser
beam during recording.

Philips Sound&Vision Service Department New Business LoB Disc Systems August 1997 Newsletter CDR97.01 2/10
The organic dye coating, on its turn, is covered with a reflective layer. The coating is
initially transparent, and for recording it is heated by a laser beam. When the intensity of
the laser spot passes a certain threshold, a bump appears in the layer. This is an
irreversible process that drastically alters the optical characteristics. Using this technique,
a pit (or rather, bump) pattern is written in the tracking groove by a relatively high-power
laser in a dedicated recorder. The laser power required for recording is typically an order
higher than the 0.5mW laser power used for reading.

CD-ReWritable

CD-ReWritable may be seen as a logical extension of the CD-Recordable series of


systems, based on the same pre-grooved substrate as CD-Recordable with just another
type of recording layer.
CD-ReWritable drives will be able to write read and rewrite CD-ReWritable discs, as well
as writing and reading CD-Recordable discs and reading all CD-Audio discs.

With only a minor modification in electronics, which CD-Audio players will implement, all
future Philips CD-Audio players will be able to read CD-ReWritable discs.

Philips Sound&Vision Service Department New Business LoB Disc Systems August 1997 Newsletter CDR97.01 3/10
How CD-ReWritable recordings are made and erased

An erasable CD technology must, of necessity, be in harmony with the existing CD


systems. Philips persevered with phase change technology, by itself quite challenging in
compatibility terms. Phase, in this context, refers to the physical aggregation state of the
material used for the recording layer of the disc. There are two possible phases, with quite
different optical properties. A low-reflectance domain of amorphous, or patternless, phase
(equivalent to a CD pit) is produced when a laser heats the recording material raidly
above its melting point of 500-700ºC. Cooling very quickly, the amorphous domain
“freezes”. On the other hand, if the recording material is heated to a rather lower
temperature for a somewhat longer time, a higher reflectance domain of polycrystalline
phase is formed, equivalent to a CD land.

Readout

Phase change tracks are read in the same way as regular CD tracks. The readout
mechanism does no more than detect the transitions between low and high reflectivity,
and measure the length of the periods between those transitions. Although the
reflectance is lower than the for regular CD’s, the relative proportions of light reflected
from the amorphous and polycrystalline phases remains the same.

CD’s reflectance specifications are defined at 70% minimum for lands, 28% maximum for
pits. But with these specifications , the development of a recording material is a practically
impossible task; if 70% of the light is reflected, only 30% at most remains to change the
phase. Nowadays, these levels are not necessary: the photodiodes of today are able to
detect much lower reflectance differences. All that is needed is the correct reflectance
ratio and adequate amplification. That’s why the CD-format specifications have been
adapted accordingly.

The new CD-Recordable/ReWritable drives will write and re-write the CD-ReWritable
discs - as well as writing CD-Recordable discs. And future CD-drives, fitted with automatic
gain control, will be able to read them.
The recording material for CD-ReWritable consists of a layer of silver, indium, antimony
and tellurium. The polycrystalline phase reflects about 20% of the light, the amorphous
phase only 8%. That meets the requirement for a minimum modulation of 60%, and
allows for writing by a laser of 10-15mW.

CD-ReWritable thus conforms the original CD specification except in one small respect.
The discs have equal dimensions and store the same quantity of data. The drives
embody a small modification, but in other respects are identical.

6. Servicing

For servicing CDR870 this set can be divided into two parts.
1. The Power supply board, Display board and the Input/Output interface board has to be
repaired on component level. Detailed information will be available via Service Manual
CDR870; 4822 725 25241.
2. The loader module with CD mechanism, CDM-board and the Main board will be
exchanged completely. For easy diagnostics this set is equipped with a selfdiagnose
program. To have repair costs lowered a repair procedure will be started and defective
loader modules have to be returned. Details will be given as soon as service
codenumber has been defined.

By means of the Service Test Program the playability of the set can be checked. See flow
chart on next page, ELECTRICAL SERVICE DIAGNOSTICS.
First of all do not forget to insert test disc SBC444A into the recorder, otherwise a fault
indication at disc test will be reported.
Then via actuating the PLAY NEXT and POWER ON keys simultaneously the Electrical
Service Diagnostics mode is started.
In case of an DERR or BERR fault indication the CDMLoader module has to be
exchanged.

We take it for granted that problems with power supply and display are solved before the
electrical service diagnostics has been started.

7. Block diagram of the CDR870

Finally we present the blockdiagram of CD-Recordable CDR870.


In Recording mode the analogue input has been converted into digital signal, which
signal can be monitored via the A/D switch, than the signal is encoded into EFM-format
and written onto the disc. The digital input sample rate may be converted before it is led
to the A/D switch.

In Playback mode the read EFM-signal is decoded and led to digital output stage and / or
converted into analogue audio signal in the DA Converter.

The µP is the heart of all these operations which controls the encoding and decoding
processes.

SYMPTOM : The message “HELLO” is shown on the display.

CURE : This phenomenon only appears when the mains cable is connected
to the set, i.e. when moving the set to another place.
The message automatically disappears after a few seconds, when the
set switches into the standby-mode.

SYMPTOM : Various failures disappear when the set is opened or when


connectors are reconnected.

CAUSE : During production some JST connectors were changed from XH type
to EH type with smaller head. This new EH type is more fragile and
susceptable to deformation during plugging in and out of the
connector socket. When it is deformed it will result in poor or
intermittent contact.

CURE : 1. During repair service technicians must handle the EH type


connectors with care. The correct way to plug it in and out is
indicated below.
2. All EH type connectors with an intermittent contact should be
replaced as a preventive action.
3. All the different wire assemblies had been standardized and are
available under the following service codes. For repair application
the wires should be cut to the correct length as required in the
defective set.

03.05 TYPENUMBER(S): FW332

SYMPTOM : POP Button does not function.

CURE : The problem is caused by the POP button activating point, which
does not land correctly onto tact switch 1413.
This can be solved by:
• Remounting the switch 1413 or
• Shortening the stopper pins around the switch area by 0.5mm

CAUTION: Do not overdo this cutting because it may lead to easy


breakage of the button hinge point when the customer
over-presses the button.

03.12 TYPENUMBER(S): FW670P

SYMPTOM : If the custormer changes the mode or any volume/DSC setting on the
set, the new setting will be automatically stored in the EEPROM.
If now the set is switched off after 1 second of the last setting change
on the set, it is possible that a wrong information will be written to the
EEPROM. If the set is switched on, the customer can have a strange
volume knob function.
The volume setting is at mininum but the output power is very
loud.

CURE : The solution is to clear the EEPROM.


Step 1 : Hold down button B1 & B3 (see fig.1) while
plugging in the mains.
Step 2 : Press Center
Step 3 : Disconnect mains

The EEPROM will load with default data. Please note that the

The problem can be solved by remounting the holder.
It is recommended to add a metal plain washer (outer diameter 9mm)
on the top of the holder. In this case the length of the screw must be
changed from 8mm to 10mm.

REMARKS : This information is only valid for versions using the CD93 disc drive.
Improved mounting process has been implemented in production
from week 9710 onwards, washer has been added from week 9724

SYMPTOM : The mains transformer is defective.

CURE : The capacitors C801, C802, C803 and C804 which are connected in
parallel with rectifier diodes will burn out and short circuit by high PP
transit voltage. This causes damage of the mains transformer.
Capacitors must be replaced with ceramic capacitors of 0.022µF/63V
(e.g. 4822 122 30103).

REMARKS : Capacitors with higher voltage rating are used in production from
week 9633 onwards.
When sets produced before week 9633 or the 4 capacitors are
marked with “AEC” are brought in for repair, we suggest to replace
the capacitors with 4822 122 30103 or capacitors with equivalent
