A3.2.9 M17 Circuit Diagram (Page 10/17)
1. Block diagram
The circuit diagram shown on page 10/17 consists of connector CN2 that provides an interface
between M17 board and LED print head.
Figure A3.2.12 shows the related signals and block diagram of LED print head.
2. Function
Data of 1664 LEDs on the LED print head is loaded into the shift registers by the HCLCK (6.67
MHz) signal. After the 1664 bit (208mm) data is loaded in the shift registers, it is then loaded in
the latch circuit by the HLATCH signal. The turning -on and off of the LEDs are controlled by
STRB1-N to STRB4-N signals.
