AL-1000/1010
The lower the heat roller surface temperature is, the greater the
thermistor resistance is, and vise versa.
Therefore, the lower the heat roller surface temperature is, the
higher the thermistor terminal voltage is, and vise versa. The
thermistor terminal voltage is inputted to the CPU analog port.
The CPU controls ON/OFF of the heater lamp by this input volt-
age level.
[High temperature protect circuit in case of CPU hung up]
For IC119 3pin (reference voltage), +5V is divided by the resis-
tor.
The thermistor terminal voltage is inputted to IC119 2pin.
When, therefore, the voltage at 2pin becomes lower than the
voltage at 3pin (when the heat roller temperature is about 220
C - 230˚C), IC119 1pin becomes HIGH, and the HL signal is
lowered to the GND level through IC114, stopping generation of
the heater lamp ON signal. (IC119 1pin is normal LOW.)
[When the heat roller surface temperature is lower than the
set level]
a. Since the thermistor terminal voltage is higher than the set
level, the HL signal from the CPU becomes HIGH.
b. The HL signal is turned to be the HLOUT signal through
IC114 protect circuit, and inputted to the photo triac coupler
(PC2).
c. When the internal triac turns on, a pulse is applied to the
gate of the external triac. Consequently a current flow from
the power source through the heater lamp to the triac, light-
ing the heater lamp.
[When the heat roller surface temperature is higher than
the set level]
a. Since the thermistor terminal voltage becomes lower than
the set value, the HL signal from the CPU becomes LOW.
b. The HL turns LOW, the PC2 turns OFF, the external triac
turns OFF, and the heater lamp turns OFF.
[In case of the thermistor open]
The voltage at IC119 6pin over the voltage at 5pin to drive the
output THOPEN at 7pin to LOW. This is passed through the
selector to the CPU and the trouble code "H2" is displayed.

(5) Driver circuit (Solenoid)

(1) Outline
Since the control signal of each load outputted from the CPU
cannot drive the load directly, it is passed through the driver IC
to the load.
(2) Operation
The driver circuit forms a Darlington circuit with transistors.
Therefore a large drive current is obtained from a small current
(CPU output current). When the driver input voltage is HIGH
(+5V), the transistor turns ON to flow a current in the arrow
direction, operating the load. When the driver is ON, the driver
output terminal voltage is 0V.

(6) Toner supply motor drive circuit

The IC101 is the motor control IC, which generates the pseudo
AC waveform with the pulse signals (TM, TM-) outputted from
ASIC, driving the toner supply motor.

(7) Main motor drive circuit

The main motor is driven by the MM signal from ASIC. While
the main motor is rotating, the MM signal is driven to HIGH and
passed through IC114 to the control circuit in the main motor to
rotate the main motor. The MMLD signal is kept HIGH until the
main motor speed reaches the specified rpm, and passed
through the selector to the CPU.
