▶ Function Generates a required DC power of 12V or 5V in case of supplied or disconnected AC power. ▶ Description - When AC 220V is applied to CN3, D17 D20 transforms it to DC 300V. - DC 300V is generated for the LVT1 secondary source by IC3 and PC1 turning on/off.
Page 74
▶ Function Controls each driving system (VALVE, DOOR S/W, DRAIN-MOTOR) by turning RELAY or TRIAC on/off. ▶ Description - MICOM outputs a high signal of 5V from pin # 1 - 7 of IC7 and IC9. - Then, pin # 10 to 16 of IC7 and IC9 are electrically grounded (0V). - When pin # 10 to 16 are grounded, this creates an electric potential difference from the 12V that turns on RELAY 5,6,7 and TRIAC2,3,4,5.
Page 75
▶ Function Supplies power to the motor and turns it CW/CCW (Right / Reverse direction). ▶ Description - The operation of TRIAC1 is the same as that of the driving system. - If the electric potential of R48 is grounded (0V), TRIAC1 turns on. - CN1 detects if the door is locked or unlocked.
Page 76
▶ Function Detects signals from the sensor and controls the current system. ▶ Description - The water level sensor is connected to pin 4 of CN7. - The frequency of the level sensor changes according to the water amount in the tub. - Then, the frequency is input to MICOM pin 48 for detecting the water amount.
Page 77
▶ Function Detects the current RPM of the motor and controls the output. ▶ Description - The motor TACHO sensor is connected to CN10 B-pin. - According to the current RPM of the motor, a square wave is applied to pin 8. - The square wave that is input to TR2 BASE turns the motor on if high (5V), and turns it off if low (0V).
Page 78
▶ Function Applies the electric current to the silver plate during the water supply and uses the silver water to perform the bacteria-free or sterilization processes. ▶ Description - Selects the silver nano feature to operate the system. - Supplies water to the two silver plates AG_B and AG_A. Then, SINAL_A and SIGNAL_B output a high signal of 5V.
