THEORY OF
OPERATION
A. GENERAL INFORMATION
This chapter provides a general overview of the
theory of operation of the Super Breakout electronics
contained on the game printed circuit board (PCB). It
also goes into specific detail of the various circuits to
explain to an individual of moderate technical back-
ground how these circuits should perform. This de-
tailed information has been organized with emphasis
placed on troubleshooting the game PCB, circuit by
circuit.
The Super Breakout game block diagram of Fig-
ure 3-1 illustrates the major components, including
all controls remote to the game PCB. The function
and direction of the information to and from these
various controls is also shown.
The Super Breakout PCB block diagram in Figure
3-2 illustrates the division and function of the various
circuits located on the game PCB and how they are
controlled by the microprocessor. Refer to Figure 3-2
as you go through the following circuit descriptions.
