SECTION 8 DESCRIPTION OF CIRCUITRY
8.1 CAMERA BLOCK CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION 8.1.1 IS board The CCDs of 1/3" IT, 380,000-pixel (NTSC), 440,000-pixel (PAL) CCDs. Vsub is adjustment-free. ISB, ISG and ISR are connected through FPCs, which cannot be disconnected from the circuit boards. The CCDs are soldered directly onto the board. Therefore, soldering should be removed when replacing the CCD block assembly. The S/H circuit, which in the previous models has been located on the IS board, is located in the AFE block on the Main board that is located after the IS board. This has resulted in a simplification of the IS board.

8.1.2 Main board The main block can be divided into the three functional components of the AFE, PLD and DBE blocks. (1) AFE (Analog Front End) block IC501, 502 and 503 are the CCD signal processor ICs. They perform S/H, AGC and A/D conversions. It converts the analog output signals from the CCDs (pixel charge signals) into 12-bit digital signals and outputs them. The handling dynamic range is 400%. ICs 504, 505 and 506 form the V-driver circuit, which supplies the vertical drive pulses to the CCDs.

ing the 27 MHz clock, are input to the LPF & Down-sampling circuit and output from it at 13.5 MHz. This signal is the Data Formatter (DV) signal. It is output in 4-bit widths by switching the LSB (4-bit) and MSB (4-bit) using the 2x clock (Fig. 8-1-3), and the signals obtained by this are the 4-bit Y and C (Cb/Cr) signals. These signals are sent to the VCR as the recorded signals. The COLOR-BAR-GEN circuit generates the color bar signal for use in recording. Apart from this, the color bar signal displayed on the LCD monitor and VIDEO output is generated by the encoder circuit in the DBE IC (IC621). When "BARS" is selected, both of the color bar signals are switched ON.

1 AFE-IF:
The 12-bit RGB digital signals output from the AFE block are input to the MUX (multiplexer) in this section and output to the DBE block by sequential switching using the 3x clock (52 MHz). At the same time, this section also generates the Y(AFY) signal for use in the lens autofocusing from the RGB signals, and output the Y(AFY) signal to the lens. The LINE REVERSE circuitry inverts (by mirror image inversion) the Bch signal, which has been inverted by the gapless prism (see section 8.2, "New prism optics") to return it to the normal signal.

6 DV-PB-IF:
The 27 MHz, 4-bit wide Y and C (Cb/Cr) playback signals from the VCR are input to the Data Formatter (DV) circuit, and output as the DV signals including Y: 13.5 MHz, Cb: 6.75 MHz and Cr: 6.75 MHz (this is the reverse operation to 5). The Data Formatter (DVE) converts the Y/Cb/Cr signals respectively into 8-bit signals, switches them using the 3x clock in MUX and sends them to the DBE block through the PB switch. As the interface to the DBE block has a width of 12 bits, the signal width is adjusted by adding 4 bits (all "0") at the top of each 8-bit signal.

2 TG (Timing Generator):
This section generates the H-drive pulse and sends it to the CCDs through ICs 510 and 512 in the AFE block.

This section switches the 2x and 3x clocks, used in signal processing, based on the 14 MHz reference clock.

(3) DBE (Digital Back End) block 1 Circuit blocks in the DBE IC (IC621): IC621 is composed of the camera DSP and mainly handles camera process signals. The DSP IC is adopted for the first time with this model. Its internal functions are as described below. a) Input signals The 12-bit RGB digital signals, obtained by A/D conversion in the AFE block, are input to the PLD (IC561), rearranged (using the 3x clock) by the internal MUX (multiplexer) and sent to the DSP. b) White blemish compensation This is the first circuit block that the input signals enter. The pixels are corrected in real time "Blemish Compensation" in the figure and the blemish is detected by "Blemish Detect" in the next stage. The position data of the detected blemish is stored inside the EEPROM (IC406), loaded every time the power is turned on and applied as a correction by "Blemish Compensation". c) Shifted pixel correction To prevent false signals and in consideration of the production tools, the CCDs are bonded by adopting the 1/2 pixel shifting technique. However, the VCR of DVC (4:1:1/ NTSC, 4:2:0/PAL ) digital camcorders do not need as high signal resolution as multipurpose cameras. Also in con-

sideration of the ease of signal processing and rate conversion, it is more convenient to handle the RGB signals at the same timing. Therefore, their timing is returned to the same timing in an early stage in the DSP. It is also in this stage that the 14 MHz sampled RGB signals are oversampled for their processing in 28 MHz. d) RGB gamma circuit "RGB Gamma" compresses the dynamic range of the signals while they are still in the RGB format. The RGB signals change from 12-bit to 10-bit signals from the output of this circuit. The gamma processing method is the "table method" in place of the "polygonal line approximation Method". The "table method" is also adopted in other circuits such as "Detail" and "Y-Gamma". The table data for use in the processing is handed from the camera's CPU to the DMA block in the DSP. e) Y/Cb/Cr conversion The signals that have been in the RGB format until "RGB Gamma" are converted into the Y/Cb/Cr format in this circuit block. However, the sampling rate is still 28 MHz (4:4:4) at this stage. f) Y-gamma processing block This circuit block applies gamma processing to the Y signal, which changes from a 10-bit to an 8-bit signal in this stage. (The Cb/Cr signals are still 10-bit signals in this stage.)

g) 4:4:4 4:2:2 conversion This circuit block converts the Cb/Cr signals from 14 MHz to 7 MHz (4:4:4 4:2:2) and from 10-bit to 8-bit signals. h) Rate conversion block While the signals have been processed based on the 14 MHz and 18 MHz sampling clock rates, this circuit block converts them into 27 MHz-based signals. i) Encoder After completion of the camera input signal processing, the signals are divided into those for use by the main recording circuitry (those sent to the DVC VCR) and those for use by the LCD monitor. This circuit block generates the composite signal using the NTSC/PAL timing generator and digital encoder in the DSP. It is also in this circuit block that the sync signal is added. However, as simple addition of the sync signal causes the number of bits assigned to the effective video to be reduced, the total number of signal bits is increased to 10 bits at the time of sync addition.

In consequence, the D/A block for the analog output employs a 10-bit encoder. This circuit block also generates the color bar signal for use in display on the LCD monitor and the viewfinder (the color bar signal for recording is generated in the PLC IC (IC561)). j) DMA block This circuit block mainly handles the data exchange with the camera CPU and the storage of DSP parameters (table data).

2 Analog video amplifier:
IC625 is the analog video amp. It generates the composite signal and the Y/C signals from the analog Y/C signals, which are output from the encoder of the DBE IC (IC621), and outputs them at the connectors. For the signal level adjustments, the DBE IC adjusts the overall Y signal level and the analog video amp adjusts the C signal level.

As a result, both the recorded EE signals and playback signals can be converted into MPEG4 by the KA-DV300.

IC562 is the ROM IC storing the program for the PLD (IC561). The program can be rewritten through CN561 but this is not done in stores because a special tool is required.

NEW PRISM OPTICS

The GY-DV300 adopts a new, 1/3" three-CCD prism optics (gapless prism technique) featuring a compact size and light weight. The new prism optics incorporates new technologies that are different from those used in previous models. (1) Gapless prisms The light is divided into the three primary colors of light, R, G and B, by the combination of three color-spectral prisms. Each of these prisms has special surface treatment to reflect the light of specific wavelengths. These prisms have been bonded by reserving air gaps of 2/1000 mm in order to reflect the light using these air gaps. However, the difficulty in combining the prisms by providing these gaps uniformly and in parallel has become a factor for increasing the production costs. But the new gapless prism technique makes it possible to combine the prisms without leaving the air gaps. This has improved productivity and decreased the production costs. As this technique also allows the prism size to be reduced, it contributes to a reduction in both size and costs.

normal image) by an electrical circuit. In addition, the arrange ment of the RGB colors of the new optics is also different from the previous optics. (2) Direct bonding Previous optics attached the CCDs to the prisms by means of sheet metal soldering technique (solder bonding). As the CCD packages themselves are not made of a soldering-compatible material (or treatment), each CCD had to be fixed on a sheet metal plate (made of soldering-compatible metallic material), which was then soldered on the soldering section (copper-plated area) of the prism optics. With this technique, the CCDs can be replaced individually because they can be removed easily by melting the solder. (Nevertheless, bonding is possible only in the production line because it requires special tools and technologies for achieving register accuracy of the micrometric order.) The disadvantages of the previous optics included high costs due to an increase in the number of parts, such as the sheet metal plates used in the soldering process. An increase in the CCD block size for incorporating these parts was also a problem.

Previous prism optics

Fig. 8-2-2 Parts Required in Previous Bonding Techniques On the other hand, the direct bonding technique of the new optics bonds the CCD packages and prisms directly using a special adhesive agent that hardens under the irradiation of UV rays. Because of this property, the adhesive agent does not harden at the register alignment stage but is hardened when the UV rays are irradiated after the alignment. The adhesive agent can be used to bond the ceramic-made CCD packages and glass-made prisms without additional metallic parts. This feature makes it possible to implement the whole CCD block featuring a compact size and a light weight. However, the use of an adhesive agent for bonding the CCDs makes it impossible to peel the CCDs once they are fixed. In case of CCD trouble, it is not possible to replace only the faulty CCD. As a result, the CCD block of this model cannot be serviced even at the factory. If CCD faults are discovered during a store servicing, the whole CCD block assembly should be replaced.

New gapless prism optics

Fig. 8-2-1 As the use of gap-less prism optics results in the impossibility of reflections from the opposite directions inside the prism optics, the Bch signal is reflected only once (In the previous prism optic systems, a signal corresponding to Rch was reflected twice by the internal prisms. See Figure 8-2-1). This makes the Bch image an inverted one (the left and right of which are inverted like a mirror image). To deal with this, the Bch video signal from the CCD is inverted (returned to a

LENS CONTROL SYSTEM

Peak point It goes beyond the peak, goes back to the peak and stops there.
Modulation

Outline The lens assembly used with this model incorporates automatic control functions such as autofocusing and OIS (Optical Image Stabilizer) in addition to the auto iris control that has also been available with previous model. In order to provide compatibility with them, the Lens CPU (IC905 on the Main board) is provided for exclusive use in the lens control. This chapter gives a description of this control system. (1) Autofocusing control In general, autofocusing is performed by adopting one of the following three techniques. 1) Active autofocusing: Triangulation using IR rays or ultrasound waves 2) Passive autofocusing: Phase error detection using an optical focus sensor. 3) TTL (Through The Lens) autofocusing Electrical signal processing of an image incident through the lens The autofocusing of the lens in this model is controlled with the TTL method. The video signals obtained from the three RGB CCDs are A/ D converted and input to the PLD (IC561) in the digital signal processor block. The PLD generates the 9-bit Y signal for use in autofocusing (AFY) apart from the processing of the signals to be supplied to the main camcorder circuitry. The AFY signal data is subjected to the internal computation by the autofocusing DSP (IC906) and the results are sent to the lens CPU. The lens CPU outputs the data as serial data to the focus/ zoom driver IC (IC901) to drive the focusing motor of the lens using the DC voltages output from the D/A output ports. The factors deciding the autofocusing effect is the computation inside the DSP and the program processed by the lens CPU. Autofocusing control consists of moving the focusing lens a little beyond the AFY modulation peak and then returning it slightly so that the focusing lens stops at the peak position. The modulation peak point is defined as the optimum focus point. Due to the principles themselves, focusing may sometimes be difficult when the object has little contrast.

Focusing Lens Control

Fig. 8-3-1 (2) OIS (Optical Image Stabilizer) control The lens of this model incorporates the OIS function for correcting blurring due to a slight movement of the hands. The optical correction employs the shifting technique, the detail of which is described in section 8.4. This section deals only with the flow of control signals. Blurring is detected via the information from the gyro sensors provided on the lens. Two gyro sensors for horizontal and vertical directions are used to detect the lens blurring directions. The information output from the gyro sensors is input to the CAM CPU circuit block on the Main board. This circuit block obtains information such as the displacement and velocity (acceleration) of the lens, detects the blurring situation based on it, and sends the result signals (GYRO_X, GYRO_Y) to the lens CPU. The CPU performs software-based computations of the optimum correction amount based on the obtained information and outputs the results to the OIS D/A driver IC (IC902) (serial data). The OIS driver IC (IC902) outputs the pulse signal for driving the motor of the blurring correction shift lens. One of the important factors deciding the effects of OIS is the software program. We have performed a large number of experiments to investigate this point, and the best possible correction program has been developed and incorporated in the CPU. (3) Countermeasures against Malfunctions With both autofocusing and OIS control, the key is the digital data and the software program incorporated in the lens CPU. Even when the signal lines can be observed in servicing, it is difficult to analyze the operations. When analyzing malfunctions in stores, one should observe the changes in the analog signals (including voltage) at the input from and the output to the lens. CN901 is the point of concentration of all information exchanges between the lens and Main board. To check the operations and determine their availability, it is necessary to observe the signal pins of this connector. However, note that the lens is an assembly part. This means that it should be replaced as a whole assembly except for some parts.

CONCEPT OF IMAGE STABILIZER SYSTEM

Entire effective image area of CCD Area usually used Assuming that the camera is vibrated toward the bottom left of the object, the area capturing the object accurately in the entire imaging area of the CCDs is only the area shown by this figure. Therefore, this area is trimmed and enlarged to correct the image stabilization due to any slight shake of the camera. The center area of the CCD imaging area is used when camera shake does not occur.

8.4.1 Image stabilizer system function The new lens assembly used in this model incorporates an optical image stabilizer system. Compared to the electronic image stabilizer system used frequently in other camcorders that are commercially available, the system is better suited to lessen the video quality degradation and is therefore suitable for professional applications. In the following, the differences between electronic and optical image stabilizer and models of correction method will be described. 8.4.2 Differences between electronic and optical image stabilizer (1) Comparison table of electronic and optical techniques

Image after correction

Fig. 8-4-1 Electronic Image Stabilizer System (In Cases when Camera Shake Occurs) (3) Optical image stabilizer The optical image stabilizer device is more complicated than the electronic image stabilizer device. However, the advantage of the optical technique, which is the absence of resolution degradation causes the technique to be applied in highend type consumer-oriented camcorders as well as in handheld professional camcorders. When the camera (the whole camera including the lens) is deviated from the intended light axis due to a slight movement of the hand, optical image stabilizer corrects the light axis error optically using the lens. Its correction method can roughly be divided into "shift correction" and VAP (Vari-Angle Prism)" methods. The lens used with the GY-DV300 incorporates the optical image stabilizer system of the shift correction type. The shift type image stabilizer corrects the light axis error from the object due to slight movements of hands by displacing the position of the built-in correction optics. It is called the shift type technique because it shifts the correction optics in the up-down and left-right directions.

(2) Electronic image stabilizer In general, electronic image stabilizer loads the video signals from the CCDs into memory, compares the current and the next images and determines whether the camera is panned/tilted or has been shaken by assessing the quality of the image. This technique trims the image area to be used (the image containing the intended object) from the original image that is captured in a larger size than required. (This is possible because the CCDs receive the images through the light reflected from their whole surface). The enlarged image is then output (because the trimmed image is slightly smaller than required). As a result, the image resolution may be degraded slightly compared to that of the image before trimming. Thanks to the implementation of corrections using an electronic circuit and control software without the need of expensive, optically complex devices, this technique features low cost and compact size, which makes it suitable for use in consumer-oriented camcorders.

Correction optics Focusing lens system Other lens systems Imaging surface (CCD) Object side

a prism that can vary the refraction direction by varying its own thickness (vari-angle prism). The prism thickness is changed instantaneously by a variangle prism, in which two sheets of glass are connected by a bellows made of a special film and a high-refractivity fluid is contained inside it.

Fig. 8-4-2 Concept of Shift Correction
Sheet glass

For instance, when the lens (and the whole camera) is oriented downward by a slight movement of the hands, an error of the light axis from the object causes the image at the CCD input to be deviated downward. In this case, the correction optics should be shifted downward to refract the light for returning the object image to the intended position (center). As slight movements in the actual camera operation occur both in the up-down and left-right directions, the correction optics should be shifted in parallel in all of the updown and left-right directions on a plane that is orthogonal to the light axis.

High-refractivity fluid

Bellows

Fig. 8-4-4 Cross-Section of a Vari-Angle Prism

Camera shake

Fig. 8-4-5 Operation When Camera Shake Occurs When the optics (including the camera) is tilted, the light axis is corrected by controlling the prism so that the bellows structure is varied and the light axis is refracted in the desired direction as shown in Fig. 8-4-5. The advantage that the VAP method presents is that it does not require the space for allowing the correction optics shifting (space for the up-down and left-right shifting). It is said that the correction effects of the shift and VAP methods are almost identical. In consequence, they are usually selected according to the type of the lenses (optics) in use. As described above, the optical image stabilizer method corrects the light axis errors by refraction in the optical lenses (in a manner than can be called an analog correction). Thus it can deal with slight movements of a wide range of frequencies and uses the entire optical image received by the CCDs without quality degradation. It is therefore regarded to be suitable for use in professional-oriented cameras.

Control motor Image stabilizer system block

Fig. 8-4-3 Electronic image stabilizer detects camera shake from changes (correlations) in the images written in memory, determining the movement direction, movement amount and whether each change is due to a slight movement of the hands or panning/tilting of the camera. Meanwhile, optical image stabilizer uses gyro sensors incorporated in the lens and corrects the changes in the X/Y directions of the image by controlling two motors for shifting the correction lenses based on the direction and acceleration information obtained from the gyro sensors. Another optical correction method, though not employed in the GY-DV300, is the VAP method. While the shift correction refracts the light axis by shifting the correction optics (lenses), this method refracts and modifies the light axis using

BLEMISH COMPENSATION

8.5.1 Outline The GY-DV300 adopts a new blemish compensation technique to improve the correction accuracy. This function corrects blemish (spots caused by high signal levels) produced in CCDs in a digitally, using a memory. This function is used only after replacement of the optical block assembly or when a CCD produces new blemish, and is not used usually. Detection of the blemish to be corrected can be performed using a service menu (see section 1.8). 8.5.2 Detection Blemish is detected by the DSP (IC621) and PLD (IC561) on the Main board. A pixel on which blemish is produced outputs the signal even when no light is irradiated on it (dark current) so the level of the corresponding area becomes permanently high. The DSP sets a detection level and corrects the blemish exceeding that level. The maximum number of correctable blemish errors is 32 including all of the RGB channels (16 in the case where there is more than one on a single line). Blemish with composite output levels higher than 50 mV is corrected in priority. When the detected number exceeds 32, blemish detection is performed again by setting a higher detection level. The detected positions are reset every time detection is performed (ERROR DETECT EXECUTE). The blemish position data is stored in the SDRAM in the DSP and the CPU read in it and stored in the EEPROM (IC406). The CPU sends the address data of the positions to the DSP every time the power is turned on. The blemish detection area is equal to the effective video pixel area but 8 pixels on the left and right are not corrected with any line. The correction effect is reduced in the case of successive blemish (blemish errors on adjacent pixels). Caution The camera enters the LoLux mode and the lens iris is forced to close during detection. If the iris is not closed and light is incident on the CCDs, the message "LENS NOT CLOSED ?" is displayed on the LCD or viewfinder screen and the operation terminates in a detection error.

8.5.3 Correction At the moment power is turned on, the blemish position data stored in the EEPROM (IC406) is sent to the blemish correction block in the DSP through the SD RAM (IC622) for real-time blemish correction. Since blemish correction is performed in the LoLux mode, correction is always applied on a per-pair basis covering two pixels at a time. As shown in Fig. 8.5.3, for the pixel with blemish (P2) and the adjacent one located at its left or right, the average value of the pixels two positions down of each pixel is calculated and applied as the correction signal to each pixel.

DVC CIRCUIT

8.6.1 DV IC IC5 (JCY0176) IC5 on MAIN board is the DSP for processing DVC signals. The feature of this IC compared to the circuitry of previous models such as the GY-DV500 is the single-chip implementation of the signal interface (DVIO), compression circuit (COMPRESS), shuffling circuit (SHUFFLE), error code correction (ECC), modulation/ demodulation (DCI), IEEE1394 interface, PLL circuit, auto tracking circuit (ATF) and SDRAM function.

(3) Block diagram and signal flow The video signals input from the camera signal processor are compressed and shuffled. The AUX data and sub-code data (time codes) are input through the HOST I/F. After addition of error correction codes to all of these signals, they are coded for tape formatting and recording, and sent as the REC data to the PRE-REC processor (IC1). In tape playback, the played analog signal is input from the PRE-REC amp (IC1) and supplied via the A/D, waveform equalizer, clock reproduction, Viterbi decoding, and then goes through the error correction circuits to output the video, audio, sub-code, and AUX data.

8.6.3 Audio Circuitry (1) Signal flow The input microphone signals include the MIC1, MIC2 and built-in MIC. The reference input level of MIC1/MIC2 is -56 dBs and built-in MIC is -40 dBs. The MIC1 and MIC2 inputs are phantom microphone compatible so that +48 V DC can be supplied. The MIC signal inputs are sent to amplifiers for level boosting to -25 dB. Then, the built-in MIC and MIC1 are input to IC708 to be selected. After this, the signal is sent through the channel switch IC708 and input to ALC/ VRs 701 and 702. VRs 701 and 702 are audio recording level controls that are effective in Manual mode. ICs 706 and 707 are the ALC circuit that are effective in Auto mode. The signal is then sent through the ATT for level attenuation to -32 dB, and input to pins 54 and 59 of IC711 (AK4560AVQ), which amplifies the signal to the reference recording level of -12 dB. The signal is then A/D converted and output at pin 29 to become the REC DATA signal. In playback, the digital data is input from pin 30, D/A converted and output at pins 19 and 21. The signal is then amplified from -12 dB to -8 dB before going to the camera output terminal. IC711 uses MCLK, LRCLK and BCLK as clocks. They are not synchronized with the video signal so the GY-DV300 does not have the audio lock function. (2) Clock signals for audio data

2 Description of LCD panel Operatins
· A vertical driver, which consists of vertical shift registers, enable-gates and buffers, applies a selected pulse to each of 228 line electrodes sequentially one line electrode at a time in a single horizontal scanning period. · The selected pulse is output when the enable pin goes to high level. PAL signal pulse elimination display and 16:9 mode pulse elimination display are possibly by using the enable pin and simultaneously controlling VCK. · A horizontal driver, which consists of horizontal shift registers, gates and CMOS sample-and-hold circuitry, applies selected pulses to each of 880 signal electrodes sequentially in a single horizontal scanning period. These pulses are used to supply the sampled video signal to the row signal lines. · The scanning direction of the horizontal shift registers can be switched with the RGT pin. The scanning direction is left to right (right scan) for RGT pin at high level (2.6 to 5.5 V), and right to left (left scan) for RGT pin at

low level (0 V). In addition, the scanning direction of the vertical shift registers can be switched with the DWN pin. The scanning direction is top to bottom for DWN pin at high level (2.6 to 5.5 V), and bottom to top for DWN pin at low level (0 V). (These scanning directions are from a front view.) · The vertical and horizontal drivers address one pixel, and then thin film transistors (TFTs ; two TFTs for one pixel) turn on to apply a video signal to the pixel. The same procedures lead to the entire 228 x 880 pixels to display a picture in a signal vertical scanning period. · Pixel are arranged in a delta pattern, where sets of RGB pixels are positioned shifted by 1.5 dots against adjacent horizontal lines. The horizontal driver output pulse must be shifted by 1.5 dots for each horizontal line against the horizontal sync signal to apply a video signal to each pixel properly. · The video signal is input with the polarity-inverted every horizontal cycle.
