TUNER(TU3)
A horizontal mounted and Digital Half-Nim tuner is used in the product, which covers 3 Bands(From 48MHz to 862MHz for COFDM, from 45.25MHz to 863.25MHz for CCIR CH).
The tuning is available through the digitally controlled I2C bus (PLL). Below you will find info about the tuner.
In active antenna option, the following circuit are used. ANT_CTRL pin is controlled by microcontroller. If ANT_CTRL is low, ANT_PWR will be low. If ANT_CTRL is high, ANT_PWR will be high.  OVER_CUR_DETECT pin is a monitor for short circuit in antenna. OVER_CUR_DETECT is low, ANT_CTRL will be low, so ANT_PWR will be low. Finally, short circuit protection is done by circuits and micro-controller.
General description of Sony RE216
The SUT-RE216 is designed for terrestrial TV (digital & analog) and digital cable reception. It includes a full band tuner and a channel filtering for digital signals. It provides a low IF output after channel filtering to drive a channel demodulator. Tuning, band switching and initialization are made via an I2C bus interface.

POWER STAGE
The DC voltages required at various parts of the chassis and panel are provided by a main power supply unit. MB62 chassis can operate with IPS60, IPS16, IPS17, PW26, PW27 as main power supply and also with 12V adaptor.  CN706 is used for IPS60, IPS16 and IPS17 and CN1 is used for PW26 and PW27 JK9 is used for the adapter option and also CN75 inverter socket or DB32 chassis with CN709 is used to supply backlight.
The power supplies generate 18,12,5,3.3 and 12,5 volsts standy mode DC voltages.  Power stage which in ON Chassis generates 5,3.3 standby voltes and 12,8,5,3.3,2.5,1.8 and 1.2 volts supplies for other different parts of the chassis.
No Backlight Problem
If TV is working, led is normal and there is no picture and backlight on the panel.  Possible causes: Backlight pin, dimming pin, backlight supply, stby on/off pin Backlight pin should be high in open position. If it is low, please check Q181 and panel cables.
Dimming pin should be high or square wave in open position. If it is low, please check S16 for Mstar side and panel or power cables, connectors.
Back-light power supply should be in panel specs. Check CN705 for MB62, related connectors for power supply cards.
Led Blinking Problem
LED blinking, no other operation
This problem indicates a short on Vcc voltages. Protect pin should be logic high while normal operation. When there is a short circuit protect pin will be logic low. If you detect logic low on protect pin, unplug the TV set and control voltage points with a multimeter to
find the shorted voltage to ground.
No Sound Problem
No audio at main TV speaker outputs.
Check supply voltages of VDD_AUDIO, 5V_VCC and 3V3_VCC with a voltage-meter.  There may be a problem in headphone connector or headphone detect circuit (when headphone is connected, speakers are automatically muted). Measure voltage at HP_DETECT pin, it should be 3.3v.
No Sound Problem at Headphone
Check HP detect pin, when headphone is. Check 5V_VCC and 3V3_VCC with a voltemeter.
Standby On/Off Problem
Device cannot boot, TV hangs in standby mode.
Check HP detect pin, when headphone is connected. Check 5V_VCC and 3V3_VCC with a voltage meter.
Standby On/Off Problem
Device cannot boot, TV hangs in standby mode.
There may be a problem about power supply. Check 12V_VCC, 5V_VCC and 3V3_VCC with ith a voltage-meter. Also there may be a problem about SW. Try to update TV with latest SW.
It is good to check SW printout via hyper terminal [or Teraterm].  These printouts may give a clue about the problem.
