CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 4.5 Reset Circuit The reset state is effectuated by setting the RES terminal to "Low." To surely reset, it is necessary to set it to "Low" at least for 20ms at power-on and for 625ns while operating. If an external reset is not used, the parts enclosed by dotted lines are not required.
CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 4.6 Oscillation Circuit The oscillation circuit incorporates a clock oscillator which generates a system clock and an internal clock. There are two methods to supply a clock; one is to connect a ceramic oscillator, and the other is to input an external clock. When using the ceramic oscillator, we recommend the CSTCS16.00MXOC3 (With capacitor) made by MURATA.
CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 4.7 Head-up Detection Circuit Print head up/down is detected by a head-up sensor built in the printer so that the printer will not be energized on with the head up. The circuit is "opened" when the print head is up, and "closed" when down. When the print head is up, HEADUP (Pin 88) of the CPU is turned to "High," and if the printer is printing, it will immediately stop printing and output an error. It resumes printing when the print head is down.
CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 4.8 Head Control Circuit VP is controlled in order to prevent electrolytic corrosion of the printing head. HVC(Pin-4) of the Gate Array is turned to "HIGH" when turning on VP, and turned to "LOW" when turning it off. A temperature detection circuit is provided in order to prevent deterioration of the printing quality or breakage of the printing head due to a temperature.
CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 4.9 Paper End Detection Circuit A paper sensor built in the printer detects whether there is the printing paper, so that the printer will not be turned on when it has no paper. When the printer has no paper, PAPER (Pin 7) of the CPU is turned to "HIGH." If printing is under way, it will stop after printing that line, and output an error. When the paper is set, printing is automatically resumed.
CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 4.10 Motor Control Circuit Avoid running the motor continuously for 15 minutes or more.
CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 4.11 Auto Cutter Control Circuit This CPU has a function to control the auto cutter, using the Pin 33 of the Gate Array. When the auto cutter is not used, set the Pin 33 of the Gate Array to "HIGH." If set to "LOW," the printer will not function properly, resulting in an alarm.
CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 4.12 Parallel Interface Circuit The Gate Array ports are mainly used to provide an 8-bit parallel interface. When the parallel interface is not used, pull up STB(Pin 52) of the Gate Array with a 10k resistor. STB(Pin 87) of the CPU should be connected to INTR(Pin 56) of the Gate Array or pulled up with a 10k resistor.

CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 4.14 Switch Circuit The printer has a switch input function for paper feed. Also provided is a function to perform self-printing, using this switch. (Turn on the power while holding down this switch, or apply a reset with this switch held down when the power has been already turned on. The printer automatically starts self-printing and returns to the normal waiting state after printing is completed.
CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 4.15 Error Output Circuit The printer has two kinds of error outputs. (Up to a current of 10mA is available in order to mainly indicate with the LEDs. If this limit is exceeded, the CPU may be destroyed. Select the current control resistors, LEDs, etc. carefully.) LEDPE(Pin 4) of the CPU is a paper error exclusive output. "LOW" is output when the printing paper runs out, and "HIGH" is output when new printing paper is set.

VH voltage error Head temperature error Cutter lock(ACS-220-5v) Set the VH voltage to within the allowable range(4.2~8.5 V) and turn on the power again, or set the LFSW(Pin-2) of the CPU to Active. See Note 2. At the lower limit(Less than 0ºC), printing is enabled at 0ºC or more. At the upper limit(65ºC or more), printing is enabled at 60 C or less.
CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 4.16 Function Selection Circuit The input port of the Gate Array has function selecting terminals. switch, and so on, connect them as they are.

CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 5. PRINTER MECHANISM CONTROL SYSTEM 5.1 Head Drive 5.1.1 Thermal Head Control System The LT-286 is driven by this LSI has a 1-line printing head divided into 6 blocks of 64 dots each. With this LSI, you can choose either a Fixed Division Number System which drives the printing head by always dividing it into 6 blocks of 64 dots each or a Variable Division Number System which simultaneously drives it by consolidating several blocks according to the number of activate head dots.
CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 5.1.2 Thermal Head Application Energy This LSI automatically controls the energy applied to the thermal head according to a temperature and Vp voltage. With the function selection terminal, print density can be set to the following 4 kinds of ranks listed in Fig. 5.3. Fig. 5.3 5.
CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 5.3 Auto Loading Auto loading is a function to facilitate replacement of the printing paper. It is enabled by setting the function selection terminal(Gate Array Pin 38) to "LOW." Functioning: 1) Make the PE sensor detect PE once. 2) Insert the printing paper into the printing paper insertion slot until the PE sensor detects the paper again. When this is done, the paper should be inserted at a right angle to the insertion slot; insert it until it comes to the end.
CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 6. SELF-PRINTING This LSI displays the setting of the function selection terminal and has a test print function to print Kanji when printing the half-size characters or using the specified Kanji ROM(CBM202KG-01). The procedure is as follows: 1) Turn on the power, setting LFSW(Pin 2) of the CPU to "LOW." Turn on both Vcc and VH almost simultaneously, or turn on Vcc, followed by VH(Within 500ms after Vcc). Fig. 6.1 shows a print sample(A print differs from actual dimensions).

CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 9. PRECAUTIONS FOR MOUNTING 9.1 Precautions If a relative humidity drops, the LSI will be electrified with static electricity more easily. The surface mounting package must be stored in a dry atmosphere to prevent humidity absorption, but while it is being stored, it will not be electrified because it will not have friction, etc.
CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual 1) Temperature gradient 1 If a temperature rises abruptly, each joint of the surface mounting device to the package will have different temperature. As a result, the package may warp due to a difference in the thermal expansion factor of the material, thus damaging the chip. Therefore, it is necessary to heed the upper limit of an ascending rate. The lower limit depends on the activity rate of the reflow unit.
CBM-202PC-04 User’s Manual Fig. 9.3 Vapor Phase Reflow Recommended Conditions 6.4 Cleaning Method After soldering, eliminate/clean remaining flux off the PCB because it affects reliability of the parts and PCB wiring, as a rule. As an example, ultrasonic cleaning is employed under the following conditions. In order to prevent destruction of the device, pay attention to an applied frequency, electric power(particularly peak power), time and resonance of the device.
