  • Page 4: System Overview

    1-2 System Overview The PDR-M500 consists of 7 PC boards (the Main PCB, CCD PCB, Flash PCB, LCD PCB, Switch PCB, Mode PCB and Shutter PCB), a lens unit, a color LCD, a color EVF unit, a flash unit, etc.
  • Page 5 1-2-1. Startup operation When batteries are loaded or the AC adaptor is connected, a 3.0V voltage for the sub-CPU is generated by U402 and supplied to the sub-CPU (U405). When the POWER switch (S800) is turned on in this status, the camera switches to the boot-up sequence. The sub-CPU (U405) conducts the power on control until the main voltage supplied to the DSP (U901) and other parts is supplied.
  • Page 6 (PDR-M500.BIN) is provided on the SD card. When the MENU key is held in, the camera begins operating according to the program in the “PDR-M500.BIN” file on the SD card but the operation for loading in the FlashROM (U304/M28W320ETC70) in the camera is not performed.
