They are different to models P42H401 (DW3C), P42T501 (DW3C) and P42H4011 (DW3C). The Main difference is the
Panel, the "A" models use "AE1V" Plasma Panel and the non "A" H/T Models use "A5" & "AE1" Plasma Panel.
Dimensions of both Family models are SAME.
Refer to Service Manual PA0225 when servicing "A" models in regards to other adjustments not covered in this addendum.
This ADDENDUM indicates only the differences and special considerations to be taken when servicing the "A" models.

Overview

This document is a service manual for Hitachi DW3U series televisions, specifically models P42H401A, P42T501A, and P42H4011A. It provides comprehensive information for servicing and maintaining these devices.

Function Description

The Hitachi DW3U series televisions are designed for displaying video content. They incorporate a Digital Module (DW3U) and are available in 42-inch screen sizes. The models P42H401A, P42T501A, and P42H4011A are part of the DW3U chassis family. The "A" models (P42H401A, P42H4011A) are considered "AE1V" Panel Plasma, while the "T" model (P42T501A) is a "AE5" & "AE1" Plasma Panel. The main difference between these models lies in the panel type and some minor adjustments, but they share the same fundamental chassis and many common components.

The television includes various input and output options, including HDMI, and is designed to process and display both analog and digital signals. The internal architecture involves several key Printed Wiring Boards (PWBs) that manage different functions:

  • Main Digital PWB (Neptune): This is the central processing unit for digital signals.
  • Terminal PWB: Manages external connections and inputs.
  • Power Unit PWB: Regulates and supplies power to all components.
  • Filter PWB: Filters incoming power.
  • Control PWB: Manages user interface and control signals.
  • SD PWB: Likely handles standard definition video processing.
  • LED PWB: Controls LED indicators.
  • Panel PWBs (X-BUS, Y-SUS, SDR-U, SDR-D, X-SUS, A-BUS-L, A-BUS-R, Logic PWB): These boards are specific to the plasma display panel and manage its operation, including scanning, sustain, and data processing.
