2.2 MCU clock circuit

There are two oscillation circuits for MCU, two crystal oscillators are included,

one is 16 MHz and the other is 4.194304 MHz.

2.3 MCU reset circuit

U15 is a reset chip for MCU, it works when you press the reset button and pin 2

becomes low level. It doesn't work if the power at pin 2 is a high level.

2.4 ACC detection circuit

ACC_CO input a 12V to the voltage-regulator diode Z1, after Z1 and R121, the

voltage at the base of Q18 will be 0.58V, then collector and emitter will be short

circuit. Then the voltage of POT_ACC will be changed from high level to 0V (low

level) and it will be activated.

MCU Situation Analysis after Working Properly

1. When MCU is working, it will send a 3.3V high level signal (SYS-POWER) to pin 7

of U11, that makes U11 start work and provide a 5V for front panel.

2. System main power supply

The system main power supply is composed of T_5V、12V、9V、+5V、+7.5V、-7.5V、

+5V、VCC 5V

a. System power supply T_5V

T5V is the power supply for front panel, CCD circuit, AV switching chip(U26),

Q1 stabilizing circuit, DSP voltage-stabilizing circuit, fan power supply circuit,

and USB/ iPod circuit.

at 4th pin.

9V from 4th pin of U4 +5V for radio

g. Positive power supply for operational amplifier +7.5V

When the 9V go through a current-limiting resistances, it will be changed to 7.5V

as a power supply for the operational amplifiers (U17&U25).

+7.5V for operational

amplifiers (U17&U25)

h. Negative power supply for operational amplifier -7.5V

When 5V AC signal go through D15, it will be changed to negative voltage -5V,

then the diode will double the voltage to -10V, after a current-limiting resistance,

it will be reduced to -7.5V as a power supply for operational amplifiers (U17&U25).

i. System power supply CAN_VCC(5V)

U8 gets the normal B+12V at 3rd pin, it will provide a 5V voltage for CANBUS

transceiver, remote control receiver. So when the ACC of the vehicle is ON,

we can use the remote control to power on the unit.

5V for CANBUS transceiver

and remote control receiver

3. Data bus work properly

Date bus is the serial data bus which provides a way to sending and receiving

data or signals for MCU. MCU communicates with EPROM (U14) via data bus to

memorize the system working status, such as the system volume, OSD adjusting

info, power-on/off mode etc. The data bus connects with different parts and

controls different functions. For example, DSP(U16), AMP, TW8816, and AV

switching chip(U26).
