SECTION 3 - CHASSIS OVERVIEW
OVERALL CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
“Figure 3-2. Overall Block Diagram” on page 23
 provides an 
overview of the AZ2-F chassis. The following are descriptions of the 
boards and their functions.
MAIN BOARD
Common to all models the Main Board, designated as the BATL 
Board, contains the TV control, video, and audio processing circuitry. 
All these functions are accomplished using the X-Reality Processor 
IC9000. 
TUNER
The tuner is a combination ATSC/NTSC unit. It can receive traditional 
analog NTSC signals via cable or terrestrial along with ATSC digital 
signals via terrestrial (8VSB) or cable (64 or 256 QAM).
X-REALITY PROCESSOR
IC9000 performs the majority of the necessary audio and video 
processing on the main board.
TV Microprocessor: The CPU internal to the X-Reality processor 
controls all aspects of the television functions. Input from the user 
along with monitoring of critical circuits is also performed by this 
CPU. 
Digital Audio and Video Decoder: The MPEG2 and Digital Dolby 
audio streams are received from the tuner for decompression. All 
video sources which are not native 1920 X 1080p 60HZ are scaled to 
this resolution. Digital audio content is output to the class D amplifier 
for processing and amplification.
HDMI Input and Switching: HDMI inputs are switched through 
IC5500. Each HDMI input contains a common EDID NVM (internal to 
IC5500) to provide display information data to any device connected 
via the HDMI inputs.
LVDS Transmitter: Integrated into IC9000 is a Low Voltage 
Differential Signaling (LVDS) transmitter. This circuit converts 
the 8-bit parallel RGB video information into a set of high speed 
serial lines for noise-free transmission to the TCON circuits located 
internally to the LCD panel.
Scan Converter: Signal processing circuit that performs resolution 
conversion (aspect ratio) and interlaced to progressive scan (IP) 
conversion
AUDIO AMPLIFIER
The audio amplifier (IC4601) amplifies the digital audio output of the 
X-Reality processor and sends it to the speakers.
TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The temperature sensor detects over-temperature conditions on the 
Main Board, LCD Panel, or ambient room temperature and sends 
the shutdown signal to the processor.
