signal information. An error signal (spike) is produced
any time the shape of the output waveform differs from
the output of the Variable Gain Stage and LOI by more
than 0.05%. This error signal drives the error signal (ES)
input to the PIP connector, the error signal sense test
point, and the compression control circuit.
4.5.4 Compressor
The compression circuitry senses error signal and BGS
level. If the BGS overloads, or an error signal is present,
the compression control circuit (U101) produces a com-
pression drive pulse. A switch on the rear panel selects
the speed of the integrator circuit to follow. In the off
position, the error driven compression is disabled, but
the input overload compression remains on (in fast
speed) to protect the front end. The compression drive
pulse also drives the IOC Integrator (U102). The IOC
integrator not only tells the IOC indicator circuit when to
turn on, but ensures that the indicator will remain on
long enough to be visible to the human eye.
The compression integrator (U102, Q100) sets com-
pression speed and produces an output pulse which
controls attack and decay times. An optic device (U103)
provides a resistive shunt to the input audio according
to the degree of compression required and the dura-
tion of that compression. The amplifier input impedance
is not affected by compressor operation.
4.5.5 Loudspeaker Offset Integration
LOI (U104A/B) senses amplifier feedback and prevents
dynamic DC offset. It operates essentially as a dual fil-
ter system with band pass from about 35 Hz to about
50 kHz. The upper roll-off has a second order Bessel
response while the lower roll-off has a third order
Butterworth response.
4.5.6 Voltage Translator and LVA Stages
The Voltage Translator stages (Q104, Q104) channel
the signal to the Last Voltage Amplifiers (LVAs, located
on the output modules), depending on the signal polar-
ity, from the error amp U105. The ±LVAs, with their push-
pull effect through the High Side bias servo devices,
drive the fully complementary output stage. For more
information on the LVAs, refer to Section 4.2.
U106 and U107 bring in feedback information and pro-
tection muting to the Voltage Translator stages. The feed-
back controls gain from the Voltage Translators to the
output jacks. The protection inputs (±LH) pull off feed
to the Voltage Translators in proportion to ODEP limit-
ing, and completely shut down the feed in the event of
power-down or a Fault.
4.5.7 Inverting Stages
Overall, the amplifier is non-inverting. Four stages within
the amplifier, however, do invert the audio signal for a
net non-inversion. The individual stages are: the BGS,
which inverts the audio; the Variable Gain Stage, which
inverts it back; the input side of U106 and U107 (which
drives the Voltage Translators) re-inverts the audio (the
Voltage Translators are a common-base configuration
for high voltage gain); and finally, the LVAs invert the
audio for the last time for a net non-inversion through
the amplifier.
4.6 Protection Systems
The MA-5002VZ has several protection mechanisms to
limit drive or shutdown the amplifier completely in the
event of a fault of almost any kind. Mechanisms include:
ODEP (covered in depth in Section 4.4), current limit
(covered in Section 4.2.2), over-voltage (on AC mains),
DC/LFI, common mode output current, output thermal,
transformer thermal, FET thermal, loss of AC mains,
compression (covered in Section 4.5.4), LOI (covered
in Section 4.5.5), and slew rate limit (covered in Section
4.2.2). After any non-latching fault which has shut down
the amplifier clears, the amplifier will automatically power
back up via soft-start. Because the fans within the MA-
5002VZ cool the amplifier (under normal conditions) to
prevent thermal shutdowns and ODEP limiting, the fan
control circuit is also covered in this section.
Refer to Figures 4.6, 4.7, and 4.8. Figure 4.6 shows soft-
start and fan control. Figure 4.7 shows the soft-start con-
trol signals. Figure 4.8 shows the over-all protection
scheme of the MA-5002VZ. Each augments the others,
and explode the basic block diagram of the unit (Fig-
ure 4.9).
4.6.1 Soft-start
Soft-start circuitry controls the rate at which power is
initially applied to the primary of the toroid transformers
for the high-voltage power supplies. For ease of expla-
nation, assume the amplifier is operating properly and
is just being turned on from the front panel power switch.
Before the power switch push-button is depressed, the
input to the low voltage supply is open. The high volt-
age supply is isolated via input relay K700 and triac
Q701 (which is in parallel with K700).
Several things occur immediately at turn-on. First, the
low voltage supply powers up and produces its main
unregulated ±24VDC and regulated ±15VDC. It also
immediately produces pulsed DC via full-wave rectifier
D709/D714.
