2.2.1 C417 PSB/PSE board, C482 PSH board
The power supply boards of the Stylus C50/60/C61/C62 use a RCC (Ringing Chalk
Converter) circuit, which generates +42VDC for drive line and +5VDC for logic line to
drive the printer. The application of the output voltage is described below.
Table 2-6. Application of the DC Voltages
AC voltage input from AC inlet first goes through filter circuit that removes high
frequency components and is then converted to DC voltage via the rectifier circuit and
the smoothing circuit. DC voltage is then lead to the switching circuit and FET Q1
preforms the switching operation. By the switching operation of the primary circuit,
+42VDC is generated and stabilized at the secondary circuit. This +42VDC generated
by the secondary circuit is converted to +5VDC by the chopping regulator IC of the
secondary circuit.

The C417 PSB/PSE board has the various control circuits to stop voltage output if a
malfunction occurs on the power supply board or the main board while the printer
mechanism is on duty. Following explains each control and protection circuit.
