SECTION 3 - CHASSIS OVERVIEW
POWER SUPPLY
There are different Power Supply Boards used in the models in this 
manual. The type of board depends on the size of LCD panel. They 
are:
 
● G6 (55”)
 
● G7 (55”)
 
Note: The G7 Board s a converter circuit dedicated to 
providing B+ for the LD (LED Drive) board to control the 
groups of LED backlighting
There are 3 distinct sections on the power supply:
Standby Supply: Continuously operational as long as AC power is 
applied, the standby supply generates 3.3V for the circuits requiring 
power while the unit is turned off. An unregulated 19V line is present 
to provide power to the main relay, PFC and main power supply at 
turn-on.
Main Supply: Once the power supply receives a power-on command 
from the CPU on the Main Board, the main switching supply is turned 
on to provide a regulated 12V source and an regulated 24V source 
for the LED power supply circuits.
Converter: The G6 Board does not contain an integrated converter. It 
supplies PFC 395VDC to the G7 board where a dedicated converter 
generates the B+ for the LD Board.
POWER SUPPLY FOR BACKLIGHT SYSTEM
The 55” models utilize a separate converter circuit G7 due to the 
increased current requirements of the larger panel.
3D IR EMITTER
Designated as the HEM2 Board, this board is the internal 3D IR 
Emitter to synchronize the 3D shutter glasses.
WIRELESS LAN CARD
The wireless transmit/receive circuits are located on this board to 
communicate with a wireless network.
SWITCH UNIT
This board contains the power, channel, and volume up/down and 
menu buttons. 
CAMERA MODULE
A USB camera is located on the front bezel below the Sony logo. 
Special software is located inside IC9000 to use the camera for 
power and picture control management. Face recognition software 
can determine whether someone is viewing the television. The 
number of people, distance from the TV, location from center, and 
whether the person(s) are looking at the television provides data to 
control the picture brightness and contrast. A lack of face recognition 
(no one viewing the television) can also be used to turn off the 
backlights, and, eventually turn the TV off for power savings.
IR BOARD
Designated as the HLT2 Board, the IR Board contains the power, 
standby, and timer LED’s are located on this board along with the IR 
remote receiver and light level sensor.
