17MB18 – LCD TV main board – function details, service mode, alignments and more


Many companies are using this board for their LCD TVs.  It is used with 17", 15" and 20" TFT LCD TVs
The system is a 14” to 20” TFT LCD TV solution with UOCIII Versatile Signal Processor and PW1306 Video Image
Processor chip-set on 4-layer PCB. The TV will support PAL/SECAM B/G/D/K/I/L/L’.
The other general default features of the TV are as listed below:
• 1 Full Scart input (with SVHS support)
• 1 SVHS input through standard S-Video interface.
• 1 CVBS input through standard RCA jack
• 75 ohms antenna input
• D-Sub 15 PC Input
• GERMAN + NICAM STEREO
• <3W S/B Power Consumption from mains supply
• 2x3W Speaker Output Power @16 Ohm spks; HP Output, Stereo Audio line out
• Stereo Audio line in
• Equalizer
• IR Control (RC5)
• OSD;Menu Languages ENG, FRA, GER, ITA, SPA, POR, TUR, SWE, DEN, FIN, NOR, POL, HUN, CZE, BUL, ARA, PER, RUS (subject to change and be grouped)
• Teletext
• 2H/4H Comb Filter
• White balance settings (warm/normal/cool) for TV&PC
• Full AIR&CABLE band coverage
• Auto Shut down
17MB18 Main Board consists of two major blocks. The first block is analog front-end and this block is handled by UOCIII chip that is highly multifunctional. This IC does demodulation of Video & Audio from Tuner IF, CVBS, Audio,
RGB, SVHS input selection and processing. It has an audio processor that supports equalizer or tone control, volume control, AVL, surround effect etc and supplies amplifier, headphone and CVBS & audio line outputs. It handles video
processing such as colour standard detection and demodulation, picture alignment (brightness, contrast, colour etc.). The IC also does teletext decoding with 10 pages text memory. After video processing, the processed video is applied to
PW1306 chip in RGB format.
The TV Tuner is an asymmetrical IF output type and is PLL controlled. For multistandard reception, a switchable SAW filter is used as the sound filter and it is controlled by SAW_SW output from UOC. After the SAW filter block, IF signal
is applied to UOC IF inputs (VIFIN[1,2] and SIF[1,2]).
As UOCIII can handle all the audio processing, there is no need for additional audio processor solution on the board.  UOC supports three Audio outputs. These outputs are assigned to Headphone, Speaker and Scart Audio line outputs. The
board employs TDA7056A and TDA1308 to drive speaker and headphone outputs respectively. As another dedicated output for Audio Line out from jack is not possible in UOC, this line out signal is obtained by using I2S input DAC
CS4335. UOCIII I2S output is converted to anolog signal by DAC CS4335.
As the thickness of the TV set has a limit, a horizontal mounted tuner with longer connector is used in the product. The tuning is available through the digitally controlled I2C bus (PLL). Below you will find info on the Asymmetrical Tuner in use.
General description
The tuner meets a wide range of applications. It is a combined VHF, UHF tuner suitable for CCIR systems B/G, H, L, L’, I and I’. The low IF output impedance drives a wide variety of SAW filters with sufficient suppression of triple transient.
Features
Small sized UHF/VHF tuners
Systems CCIR: B/G, H, L, L’, I and I’; OIRT: D/K
Digitally controlled (PLL) tuning via I2C-bus
Off-air channels, S-cable channels and Hyper band
ZS(AE) Aerial source impedance (unbalanced) 75 Ohm
SAW Filters
K3953M is an IF Filter for Video Applications. The package is SIP5K. Supported standards are B/G, D/K, I,L/L’.
K9656M is an IF Filter for Audio Applications. The package is SIP5K. Supported standards are B/G, D/K, I, L/L’.
Back End
The Back End section is handled by PW1306 chip. This IC has built in ADC’s for RGB and SOY support. The RGB input can handle standard interlaced RGB output from UOC, PC VGA RGB input. As only 1 set of ADC is present in PW1306 these sources should be multiplexed.  All the multiplexing operations are controlled by PW1306 via YUV_TV_SW (58) and VGA_TV_SW (57) signals.
The video output from PW1306 is a 48-bit digital RGB bus format and made available on two separate connectors with TTL control signals (i.e. HS, VS, CLK, etc.). This digital output is intended to interface to TTL compatible display
devices. As PW1306 does not have integrated LVDS transmitter, 24 bit (even part of RGB) video output and TTL control signals from PW1306 are also inputted to DS90C385 LVDS IC to produce single pixel LVDS output for LVDS
compatible LCDs.  Backlight control is also possible via PW1306 Porta7 pin (PWMOUT, PL176-10), that is a variable duty-cycle pulse generator output.
Power
Several linear regulators and switches are used to generate several separate analog and digital voltage supplies such as +5, +3.3, +1.8, etc.

SETTINGS AND FACTORY DEFAULTS
Creating Master EEPROM
• Load the new SW version to the TV.
• Place empty EEPROM to IC101 position of the mainboard.
• Turn on the TV.SW will automatically assign the initial values to the EEPROM.
• Adjust the settings of Service Menu and User Menu.
• This EEPROM can be used as Master EEPROM.
Creating Mass Production EEPROM
• The Master EEPROM prepared like above is copied and multiplied to use in mass production.
• The copy EEPROM is placed on IC 101 of 17MB18. (When TV is turned on the software will realise that EEPROM is not empty, so SW will not change the values in the EEPROM.)
Brightness and contrast values will be left unchanged after the UOC Calibration.
xx Tint value is determined automatically by software and is active in only NTSC channels. So there is no need to adjust any value in this section.
