ray protection, and (l) Full horizontal and vertical auto sync capability.
5. Software controlled auto shut off function activated if fH < = 29 kHz and fH > = 70 kHz.
6. Full range AC input and simplified line filter design.
3-2 Microcontrol Section
1. This monitor uses NOVATEK NT68P61 CPU. It contains a 6502 8-bit CPU core, 256 bytes of RAM
used as working RAM and stack area, 24k bytes of OTP ROM, 14-channel 8 bit PWM D/A converter,
2-channel A/D converters for key detection saving I/O pins, internal H. sync and V. sync signals processor
providing mode detection, and an I2C bus interface. When H/V sync through D-Sub signal cable enter pin
39 and pin 40, the CPU performs frequency / polarity detection and calculate and send to H/V sync OUT.
Then CPU reads the data from I703 and transfer to device 4854 and some DAC in CPU, above operation
takes about 500 ms.
2. There allowed 14 factory preset modes and 8 user modes. There are 8 functions, Contrast, Brightness, H.
Size, H. Position, V. Size, V. Position, Pincushion, and Trapezoid, all controlled by OSD icon which can
be adjusted by user.
3. The pin 24 and pin 25 are used for ATE function. When CPU receives C6 as slave address, it will operate
in ATE mode which is used for auto-alignment. After alignment the data will be stored in I703.
4. The user control parameters are selected by OSD icons, through 1 2 keys, they are detected by
sensing the voltage through R710, R740, R741, R743, R709, R742 to pin 13 and 14 of I701.
3-3 Deflection Section
1. I2C -- autosync deflection controller is TDA4854.
2. The TDA4854 is a high performance and efficient solution for autosync monitors. All functions are
controllable by I2C bus. SDA and SCL signals come from microprocessor feed to pin 19 and pin 18 to
control all functions.

A1570NSL/NST
3-3-1 Horizontal Section
1. The oscillator is driven by the currents in R419 and R420. The minimum oscillator frequency is determined
by R419 and the maximum frequency is determined by R420.
2. Horizontal sync comes into pin 15 through R318. And horizontal flyback pulse comes into pin 1 through
R401 and by pass filter C403 from pin 9 of FBT and C453, R4C2, Q414, R4C3 for HFLB loop.
3. Horizontal driver (pin8) O/P to Q401 via C410.
3-3-2 Vertical Section
1. Vertical sync comes into pin 14 through R317.
2. The free running frequency is determined by R301 and C301.
3-3-3 Vertical O/P section
1. The differential output currents from pin 13 of Vout1 and pin 12 of Vout2 can be directly coupled to the
vertical deflection booster pin 1 and pin 2 of TDA4866.
2. The TDA4866 has two output stages which are current driven in opposite phase and operate in combination
with the deflection coil in a full bridge configuration.
3. This IC is powered by two sets of positive voltage. (+12V at pin 3, +42V at pin 7).
3-3-4 E-W/Trapezoid and H. Width Controls
1. The horizontal O/P stage uses diode modulator D419, D433, C411, C412, L409 and C418 for East-West
(Pincushion) Trapezoid and H. width controls.
2. The scan current is determined by B+ minus Vm ( the voltage of C418) values and the pincushion control is
accomplished by Darlington pair Q418 and Q419 by coupling a parabola waveform from pin 11 of TDA4854.
The H. width / corner and trapezoid correction are also accomplished by this pin 11. The DC level controls
H. size. The AC level is combined with side pin and trapezoid corners functions.
3-3-5 X-Ray Protection
1. To avoid X-ray hazard, a DC voltage generated by pin 6 of FBT and rectified by D408, C432 and divided
by R403, R404 and R405 come into pin 2 of TDA4854.
2. If this voltage is higher than 6.39 V, then TDA4854 will be activated to float HUNLOCK (pin17), H. DRV
( pin 8), B DRV (pin 6), VOUT1 (pin 12), VOUT2 (pin13). After that all deflection circuit stop working.
3-3-6 G1, Blanking and Brightness
1. The vertical blanking signal comes from two ways. One is from pin 8 of I301 (TDA4866), the other is
from vertical sync (pin 32 of I701). These two positive vertical pulses through Q405 amplified and converted
into negative pulse and sent to G1 for vertical blanking.
2. In protection mode or an out-of- range situation HUNLock will send 5 V pulse to saturate Q406 and to
cutoff Q407, then G1 will go down to -140V. During the mode change, Mute acts as same as HUNLock's.
3. The brightness is controlled by CPU pin 1 through PNP transistor Q407. The lower control voltage causes
Q407 conducts darken to get lighter raster and a higher control voltage causes Q407 conducts lighter to get
lower brightness.
3-3-7 Contrast Section
1. Contrast is controlled by I701 through I2C bus to I501 (TDA4886) directly.
Operation Theory Page 11
A1570NSL/NST
2. Beam current is detected through T402 (FBT) pin 7, C429, VR401, R460, D406 and detected voltage
feeding into R455, R447, Q410, R527, R528, R524, C571 to control I501 pin 24 voltage. When I501 pin
24 voltage drops below 5V, the ABL function will happen.
3-3-8 H/V size breathing compensation
1. Beam current is sensed as above section (4-3-7 item 2) and this voltage routes through R456, C449,
Q409, R467, R457, R4A3, C436 then through R418 to I401 pin 31 for H. size compensation, through
R302 to I401 pin 21 for V size compensation.
3-3-9 Dynamic focus circuity
The dynamic focus is applied to improve the corner focus performance, it includes horizontal and vertical
dynamic focus.
1. Horizontal and vertical dynamic comes from I401 pin 32 and amplified through Q4F1, Q4F2, Q4F3,
C4F4, T4F1, R4F8 and feed to FBT dynamic focus pins.
2. This amplifier need 58V voltage supply, it comes from T802 pin 11 and rectified through L810, D813 and
C824.
3-4 Power Supply Section
3-4-1 AC Rectifier
The circuit can accept 90 V to 264 V AC input through D801~D804 bridge diodes and C808 filtering to get
DC 126 V~364 V for power conversion in T802.
3-4-2 Line Filter
It consists of C801, C802, C803, C816, C839, C840, C852, C853, C807 and T801 and meets EMI
regulation.
3-4-3 Power LED Status
1. The LED has 3 leads with common cathode to emit green and amber color light for different power
saving indications. It is controlled by CPU.
2. Normal : Green light
Amber LED is off because CPU pin 35 is high and pin 34 is low, only green LED is turned on.
3. Standby / Suspend : Yellow light
CPU pin 34 and pin 35 are low, then green and amber LED are turned on. That is yellow.
4. Off Mode : Amber light
CPU pin 34 is high and pin 35 is low, then green is off and amber is illuminated.
3-4-4 Auto Degaussing
When S701 turns on, pin 19 of I701 will send a signal to Q802 and turns on RL801 for degaussing. After 4
seconds, it will turn off RL801 automatically.

3-4-5 PWM Control
1. Start Up
The I801 (MC3842) gets power from R807, C812 and pin 7 voltage reaches 16 V for starting up. The
I801 starts oscillation at 22 kHz, sawtooth on pin 4 and pin 6 output to drive Q803/T802. Once Q803
switching on, D806, C804 set up an 15 V to keep I801 working through D808 auxiliary voltage.
2. Regulation
The DC O/P voltage is proportional to the auxiliary voltage, so I801 pin 2 senses the feedback voltage from
the divider R802, R823, VR801 and R821 to compare with the built-in 2.5 volts reference voltage for error
amplifier operation. Finally pin 6 can modulate the different duty cycle by VR801 setting to achieve
regulation purpose.
3-4-6 Synchronization
1. Normal Mode
The sync pulse from FBT (31 kHz~69 kHz) via C815, R826, D824, C814 and R816 to pin 4 of I801 to
keep I801 synchronized with horizontal sync input frequency.
2. Power Saving Modes: Standby/Suspend
Because there is no pulse from FBT, so the free-run frequency is decided by R815 and C814 and the
SMPS works at 22 kHz.
3. Override
The horizontal free run frequency is about 62.5 kHz under override condition, SMPS is synchronized to
this frequency.
3-4-7 O.V.P.
If the auxiliary voltage is higher than zener voltage ZD807 (18 volts) and makes pin 3 of I801 higher than
1 V, pin 6 duty cycle is limited to have the OVP activated.
3-4-8 O.P.P.
The excess current of T802 through Q803, R813 and R814 can develop enough voltage on pin 3 then limit the
power delivered because the pin 6 duty cycle is limited too.
3-4-9 Step Up Power Supply For FBT
1. The B+ of FBT is proportional to horizontal frequency, that is the higher frequency, the higher voltage.
The basic voltage is 58 volts from T802 pin 11 via L810, D813, C824 and the gate control of Q807 comes
from I401 pin 6 via Q808, Q809, D826 and R849. The duty cycle is controlled by C843, C844, C846,
R848 and R856, R857, R858, R873 and VR802 combination ratio.
2. The regulation and boost up (from 68 V to 160 V or more, on demand). The H.V. is set at 24.5 kV (zero
beam) by VR802 which senses the secondary O/P from FBT. The booster comprises Q807, L802, L801,
D820, C425 and T802 to offer the required B+ for different frequency modes.
3-5 Video Amplifier Section
1. RGB signal inputs are terminated by R501, R531 and R561 then pass through the coupling capacitors
C503, C533 and C563 to the IC501 TDA 4886 preamplifier.

A1570NSL/NST
2. The amplifier RGB signals (0~3 Vpp) are adjusted by I2C bus from I501, pin 5 is for clamp pulse which
comes from pin 16 of TDA4854 to set up the equal clamp level.
3. The video output stages are amplified by I901 (LM2407).
4. The RGB cathodes cut off are adjusted by VR910, VR940 and VR970.
5. Under override condition, "NO SIGNAL" will show on the screen.
3-6 OSD (On Screen Display) Circuit
1. The I502 HTV018-08 is OSD IC. The OSD signals are worked by positive vertical pulse from I701 pin 32
that goes through R517 to I502 pin 10, and positive horizontal pulse from T402 pin 9 goes through C453,
R4C2, Q414, R4C3 to I502 pin 5. CPU I701 pin 26, 27 (I2C bus) transfers information to I502 pin 7, 8.
2. The OSD R. G. B signals and blanking signal are terminated at I502 pin 15,d 14, 13, and 12 to I501 pin 2,
3,4, and 1, then the OSD picture appears.
