B (Hercules Port)
This port is used to switch “on” the +12V of the ATSC panel. It
is logic “High” (3.3V) under normal operation and in Semi
Stand-by of the TV, and “Low” (0V) during Standby.
9.4 Power Modes
Figure 9-4 Power modes transition diagram
The chassis has four power supply modes for efficient power
management and protection management. They are: “ON”,
“OFF”, “STANDBY”, and “PROTECTION”. Transitions
between any power modes are shown in figure above.
9.4.1 OFF Mode
The set is completely switched “off” from the AC Power. This is
done with the AC. For NAFTA it means disconnecting the TV
from the mains by pulling out the AC Power cable. When the
mains is connected, this mode transits to “STANDBY”. The
transition timing for a “cold” start from “OFF” state to “ON” is
such that from the instance the Hercules gets a hard reset, in
12 s or less, the audio and video must be present.
9.4.2 ON Mode
This is the normal operating mode. All the power supply lines
in the chassis are available. All the circuits in the set are active.
From this mode, it is possible to transit to “STANDBY,
“PROTECTION”, or “OFF” mode.
9.4.3 STANDBY Mode
The total power consumption of the TV set in this mode shall
be equal or less than 1 W (“GREEN” requirement).The Standby
State will be indicated by the LED (LED “off”). In this state, only
the Hercules uP and NVM are powered. Rest of the chassis
sub-systems are disconnected. Control ports STDBY_CON
and AUX_ON are defined to control this status. In this mode,
the Hercules and peripherals are set to the lowest power
consumption mode (SLEEP MODE) by software. From this
mode it shall be possible to transit to “ON” or “OFF” mode.
9.4.4 PROTECTION Mode
The power profile for the PROTECTION mode is as low as
required to allow “soft” diagnostics, error detection, and to
indicate LED flashes to flag the type of fault. The horizontal
deflection is “off” in this mode. From the protection mode the
only possible transition is to “OFF” mode and “ON” mode.
