2 Functional description
The block circuit diagram of the entire instrument in Section 1.1 and the functional
blocks of circuit diagram sheets (P-plans) describe the individual functional blocks.
The switching power supply generates the fundamental device voltage for the PCB
Control CS_CI and for the PCB NC Battery Charge.
MAC1200 and MAC1100 with the option “Battery” can operate battery powered. With
a new, fully charged NC battery, in Automatic Mode up to 50 ECG can be recorded.
The PCB NC Battery Charge, controls and monitors the charging process, depending
on the status of the battery and the status of the device.
Section 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 is not valid for MAC1100 without option “Battery”.
Applying the line power to the MAC 1200, or insertion of the battery activates the
charging circuit.
During a recording, the charging current is reduced.
In standby mode, a depleted battery is fully charged within 4 hours.
Marquette Hellige GmbH MAC 1100/1200 V 1.1 Page 12
227 492 20 D - 0002
Depending on the status of the battery and the status of the device, the following
behavior occurs:
State 5: Battery depleted, line power supply is connected up, device is switched
on:
Battery is charged in rapid mode, device is fully operative, including
recording.
During recording, the charging current is reduced. If in this phase, a lot
of recordings take place, the battery is not fully charged within 4 hours.
The PCB Control CS_CI is the mainboard of the MAC 1200, the PCB Control CS_C
is the mainboard of the MAC1100, which has not all memory circuit mounted. The
mainboard accommodates the control functions of the device, except the line power
supply and the NC battery-charging controller.

227 492 20 D - 0002
Both the + 3.3V and the + 5V are generated separately by a clock-rated voltage
controller. By using the „adjustable version“ of the voltage controller, both supplies
are based on the same voltage controller. The output voltage is determined by
appropriate dimensioning of the voltage divider at the feedback input of the voltage
controller.
The standby supply + 5VSTB supplies the ON/OFF Control, the + 3.3VSTB buffers
the patient ECG memory when the device is turned off.
Both supplies are generated together from one low-power linear regulator with low
quiescent supply current.
+ 12V is used for the heating control and temperature monitoring of the printing unit,
which requires only a current of a few milliamperes.
This supply is generated by a linear regulator with feedback input.
The Switch On/Off Circuit consists of the On/Off Control and the Voltage Control.
The On/Off Control switches the device on or off by switching the device supplies
+UVERS and +USUPPSW.
The On/Off Control is supplied from the + 5VSTB.
Device On Sequence:
The transition from Device Off State, or Standby State when line power is connected
to Device On State can only be activated by pressing the On/Off button.
The transition from Device On State to Device Off State, or Standby State when line
power is connected can be achieved as follows:
when the voltage control applies the signal REG_OFF_, because the battery
voltage gets too low during battery operation.
The Voltage Control controls the battery voltage during battery operation.
The signal BATT_LEV2 indicates that the battery charge has gone down, and the
device should be connected to the line power soon.
The signal BAT_LEV1 indicates that the battery has been discharged almost
completely, the device should be connected to the line power immediately, otherwise
the device will shut down within few minutes.
If battery discharge is continued without connecting to the line power, the signal
REG_OFF_ is activated and the device is switched off.
The patient leads are connected with a 15-pin connector with a special form for the
specified and released patient cables for the MAC1100/1200.
The main element of the ECG recording and front-end processing is a set of chips
comprising 3 ASICs. Pace detection is realized by a separate circuit.
To protect patients, the ECG recording and front-end processing are assembled as
floating components. Digital signals from and to the controller core are transmitted
via opto-electronic couplers. The floating supply +/- 5V is generated by an isolated
flyback converter from the + 5V logic power supply.

227 492 20 D - 0002
The actual core comprises the Motorola Power PC MPC821, which contains the
following integrated components:
chipselect logic
DRAM controller
SCC and SMC for RS-232
LCD controller
SPI Interface
I/O ports
Real-Time Clock counter register
In addition, the MPC821 contains a JTAG port with test and programming
capabilities.
The clock generation for the MPC821 is realized by a quartz oscillator with
32.768KHz. The system clock CLOCKOUT is adjusted with the internal PLL register.
The system frequency is 25 MHz.
The Reset Configuration defines startup conditions like boot port size and clock
generation source.
The control register comprises device control signals to switch off the device,
control battery charging and display control signals.
The status register contains information on the device hardware configuration and
the state of the battery charge.
Marquette Hellige GmbH MAC 1100/1200 V 1.1 Page 16
227 492 20 D - 0002
Since the internal Real-Time Counter Register of the MPC821 is used, no external
Real Time Clock chip is required. The internal RTC Register is buffered by the
voltage KAPWR.
2.3.6 Memory
The complete memory of the MAC1100/1200 is located on the PCB Control CS_C(I).
The software of the device can be loaded through the JTAG Port during the
production process, or for service purposes with the appropriate programming
software through the RS-232 interface.
Program Memory:
DRAM:
Configuration Memory:
The configuration memory is part of the program memory Flash. With special
hardware and software protection facilities, write access to the Flash is only possible
in the defined configuration memory of the Flash. Thus an external configuration
Memory like an EEPROM is not required.
Marquette Hellige GmbH MAC 1100/1200 V 1.1 Page 17
227 492 20 D - 0002
For the LCD interface to the ¼ VGA monochrome LCD interface, the internal LCD
controller of the MPC821 is used.
Controller Interface:
For the digital control signals, delivered from the MPC821, only an output driver is
required.
The LCD power supply VEE of -23V is generated from the +5V logic supply. The
generation starts after HRESET_ becomes inactive to ensure that the logic supply of
+5V first is applied to the display.
Adjusting Contrast:
Contrast adjustment of the Display is accomplished with the contrast voltage V0. The
level of V0 is controlled with the PWM signal BLCD_CONTR from the timer module
of the MPC821. In addition, the contrast voltage is temperature compensated.
Backlight:
The LCD backlight converter for the CCFL tube is located on the PCB Control
CS_CI too. The backlight converter is generated from the +5V logic power supply.
The signal BLCD_ENBA switches the backlight on or off.
The user can define the backlight active time in the configuration menu.
The keypad interface contains the control register for 8 keypad columns and the
receiving register for 7 keypad rows, and the control signals for the status LEDs:
LED_LIN, LED_BATT, LED_START and LED_STOP.
The printhead controller takes on the complete control of the 216-mm thermal
printhead with a line width of 200 mm.
The output rate to the printhead is 1000 /sec. The resolution in the Y-direction is
8 dot/mm, in the X- time axis up to 40 dots/mm.
The MPC821 prepares a complete dot column and sends it to the FIFO. A complex
PLD reads out a complete column of the FIFO and generates the digital control
signals for the printhead, which are shifted in series.
The duration of heating a dot column is defined through the pulse width of the PWM
Signal HEAT that is generated from the complex PLD too.
In addition, the duration of heating a dot column is influenced by the thermal
printhead monitoring.
Paper transportation for the speeds 5mm/s, 25mm/s and 50mm/s is driven by a
stepping motor. The stepping motor is controlled by an integrated stepping motor
driver circuit. The current for the motor is adjusted by the sense resistors of the
stepping motor driver.
For the speed 5mm/s, the motor current is reduced, triggered by the signal
LOW_SPEED.
The motor speed is controlled by the frequency of the signal RECTMR_STEP, which
is generated by the timer unit of the MPC821.
The driver circuit is enabled by the signal REC_MOTEN, the driver is powered from
+22,5V.

2.3.12 Buzzer
The buzzer is an integrated signal generator with fixed frequency, directly operating
from the +5V logic power supply.
Activating and deactivating is controlled with the signal SPEAKER.
PCB Modem Supply CS_M generates a supply voltage of +8V dc, to operate a
special GE marquette modem direct on the RS-232 interface on the MAC1200
without the need of an external power supply for the modem.
The Voltage is generated by a switching regulator with current limit and thermal
protection from the +26,5V.
The modem supply voltage +8V is accessible on Pin 6 of the RS232 interface.
The protection against ESD is realized with a Transzorb diode on the PCB Control
CS_CI

The suggested Safety Analysis Tests refer to the international standard IEC 601-1.
The tests are generally performed with Safety Testers, on most of them, the measuring
circuits according IEC 601 are already implemented.
The following is a general description of the tests to be performed. For the handling of
your Safety Tester follow the user manual.
The tests may be performed under normal ambient conditions of temperature, humidity
and pressure and with line voltage.
The leakage currents correspond to 110 % of rated voltage for the tested unit. Most
Safety Testers take this into account, otherwise the measured values have to be
calculated.
This test is performed to measure leakage current from chassis to ground during
normal condition (N.C.) and single fault conditions (S.F.C.).
In all cases, the leakage current is measured from any exposed conductive parts to
ground, the unit being tested has to be switched on and off.
- During single fault conditions (S.F.C.), referring to the electrical diagram, the
measurements have to be done under the following conditions:
N.C. S.F.C
100 µA 500 µA
300 µA (UL requirements)
Referring to the electrical diagram, measurements have to be done under the fol-
lowing conditions:
Test has failed if the measured values are greater than 50 µA.

For the protection of the test person, the following values of resistor R may be used:
Applications requiring extensive recordings may result in deposits on the thermal array
printhead which normally do not, however, have any adverse effect on the printing
quality. This can be removed with a soft, fluff-free cloth soaked in an alcohol-based
cleaning agent (e.g., surgical spirit).
