7.1.5 CPU / SYSTEM MEMORY INSPECTION

CPU /System Memory Inspection

A
Error Occurs During S/W Installation or Update through BOOTROM Board.
System Stops During Initial Booting or Operation.
Preliminary Checkpoints
If the system does not respond even though no problem was found after basic inspection,
you need to check the flash memory that contains program codes for the proper system operation,
Flash Memory Control signals that look similar to below waveforms will be repeated.
The main cause of the problems related to System Memory (i.e.Flash and DDRSDRAM)is the soldering of parts.
Therefore, first check the soldering condition and the power supply of IC.

Useful Tips
1. Check CE, OE and WE of Flash Memory when system does not operate or cannnot update for new software.
2. When the system will not operate even though the basic inspection results were normal, check Flash Memory which
contains channel data and program contents.
3. Additionally check for Local ADDRESS buses between CPU and Flash Memory.
4. Check the Memory interface of DDRSDRAM if the Flash Memory is not defected.
5. When replacing parts, be careful of static charges from the tip of the solder iron that can easily damage the parts.
Also, check for assembly condition, soldering condition, or for incorrect or reverse insertion of parts.

6. If the problems are caused by CPU, change CPU board and download Serial Number.
