3 Handling Precautions For Traverse Deck
TOP
PREVIOUS
NEXT
The laser diode in the traverse deck (optical pickup) may break down due to potential difference caused by static
electricity of clothes or human body.
So, be careful of electrostatic breakdown during repair of the traverse deck (optical pickup).
Handling of traverse deck (optical pickup)
1. Do not subject the traverse deck (optical pickup) to static electricity as it is extremely sensitive to electrical
shock.
2. The short land between the No.4(LD) and No.5(GND) pins on the flexible board (FFC) is shorted with a
solder build-up to prevent damage to the laser diode.To connect to the PC board, be sure to open by
removing the solder build-up, and finishthe work quickly.
3. Take care not to apply excessive stress to the flexible board (FFC).
4. Do not turn the variable resistor (laser power adjustment). It has already been adjusted.
Grounding for electrostatic breakdown prevention
1. Human body grounding
Use the anti-static wrist strap to discharge the static electricity from your body.
2. Work table grounding
Put a conductive material (sheet) or steel sheet on the area where the traverse deck (optical pickup) is
placed, and ground the sheet.
Caution:
The static electricity of your clothes will not be grounded through the wrist strap. So, take care not to let your
clothes touch the traverse deck (optical pickup).
Caution when Replacing the Traverse Deck:
The traverse deck has a short point shorted with solder to protect the laser diode against electrostatics
breakdown. Be sure to remove the solder from the short point before making connections.
