Taconic TLF-35A Improved PTH and PIMD Performance

One of the ways to improve performance is through increasing the operating
speed. Taconic now offers a platter-type PTH with a flywheel drive that achieves
superior efficiency. It does this by generating energy at twice the normal speed and
returning it. We can achieve a small size thanks to PCB technology with this
improved performance and design.

The new PCB design produced by RayMing PCB and Assembly goes even further by
combining vertical and horizontal power supplies. This results in increased flexibility
and easy replacement of individual power supplies without disrupting the flow of
electricity throughout the machine. It offers these features combined with
the audio and data functions and low power consumption expected of a PTH. IF
NECESSARY, the PCB can be easily removed or replaced, making this PTH
appropriate for use in critical areas, such as hospitals and hotels.

Another essential feature is the “auto-power on” function. If we do not use this
function, there is still no need to connect an AC power source to start up the machine.

The high-performance Taconic TLF-35A also features a lightweight, compact body

that we can easily carry and install, a large LCD, and easy operation.

An interesting detail here is that you do not need a power source to start up the
machine.

The time from power on to final buffering can be as little as six seconds.

Design

One main objective of the Taconic TLF-35A is to reduce power consumption by as

much as 30% compared to conventional PTHs. For example, a platter-type PTH such
as the Taconic TLF-35A uses only 10W at maximum, compared to 20W or more in a
platter-type PTH. On the other hand, other functions use lower amounts of power.
The PCB design is another essential factor in the reduced power consumption. We can
easily replace the PCB of the Taconic TLF-35A with another PCB.

Even when we make a replacement PCB, it takes only 60 seconds or less to get the
machine up and running.

Another essential feature is the auto-power on the function that starts up the machine
immediately at power on. There is no need to connect an AC power source with this
function.

The auto-power on the system allows operation in environments where fluctuating

power might influence how long it takes to start up. In addition, we can use the
machine with a remote-control unit, if necessary.

The PCB allows for a low-cost installation of the tray. Also, we can easily replace and
the motors. We install a new PCB in only 60 seconds or less to get the machine up
and running.

Size

Compared with other PTHs with platters of 35cm in diameter, there is only about one
inch more of playing surface on the Taconic TLF-35A. The PTH weighs only 3.5kg,
less than 4kg (certainly lighter than most conventional PTHs).

Many companies build Laser pickup and servo control into the Taconic TLF-35A.

The Taconic TLF-35A is also small compared to PTHs with a bevel-type data system.

This PTH is small enough to transport by hand.

We can remove the top and bottom covers by loosening the thumbscrews on both
sides of the platter. Then, we install a new PCB in only 60 seconds or less to get the
machine up and running.

The Taconic TLF-35A is so light that one person can easily carry it, making it
convenient for carrying and moving.

The LCD (1.6 inches) shows pitch, rpm, and track numbers.

Why you should use the Taconic TLF-35A PCB

The Taconic TLF-35A PCB is a very convenient product. You can easily carry the
PTH and install it in the customer’s location. In addition, the time required to start up
the machine (after power-up) is less than six seconds.

Suppose there is a problem with one PCB, only that PCB needs replacement, and then
we can use the PTH immediately. There is no need to replace all of them, as in other
machines.

1. Very high thermal reliability

Because the PTH is small, we can use it on a desktop or a shelf. Consequently, the
thermal design is very critical. Also, because the main power supply uses an inverter,
there is not much margin for error in heat. Basically, with other PTHs such as
conventional ones that use a bevel type data system, this would not be an issue if the
signal does not drop off too much, not enough to cause problems.

2. Compact and portable design

The Taconic TLF-35A is so small that we can easily carry it around. It weighs only
3.5kg which is very light compared to most conventional PTHs. Its size is only about
one inch larger than a conventional PTH with a platter of 35cm in diameter, although
the playing surface is much bigger since it has a platter of eight inches in diameter.

To move around, you can carry the Taconic TLF-35A by hand or place it on the shelf.
We do not need any special vehicle. We can easily install it in difficult-to-access
locations because of its compact design and lightweight.

3. Low moisture absorption

The highly conductive PCB makes the Taconic TLF-35A suitable for hotels and
hospitals where the environment is not very stable.

No matter how long it has been sitting in a customer’s location, if there are problems
with the PCB, we can easily replace it and use the PTH again immediately.

4. Exceptionally low DF

Reducing the attraction force is very important for this type of PTH. Also, since the
PTH is so light and small that we can move around quickly, it is essential to ensure it
does not move unexpectedly. The built-in optical sensor in the platter provides
exceptional accuracy.

The Taconic TLF-35A has a DF of less than 2m (1/3N). This is a very low value. DF
is a standard measure of the amount of force that pulls a disk in one direction.

5. Low-noise turntable

The Taconic TLF-35A uses laser pickup and servo control, with very little noise and
high stability. We must replace the PCB when there are problems with performance
since there is no need to replace all of them as in other machines.

6. Excellent peel strength

Peeling a CD is not difficult if the force on the disc is strong enough. However, many
paths have problems with this. This problem is that each platter in a conventional
PTH has a separate motor for rotation and thrusting. This type of machine makes a
great deal of noise during peeling.

The Taconic TLF-35A uses one motor to do both, so there is little noise and excellent
stability during peeling.

7. Low cost

The cost of the Taconic TLF-35A PCB is much lower than that of a conventional
PTH.

Each cartridge (platter, motor, pickup, and PCB) costs approximately $300. So, if you
purchase them in bulk, they cost less than $100 each.

Applications

The Taconic TLF-35A is excellent for use in any place where the environment is not
too stable. Also, the Taconic TLF-35A provides excellent performance. So, we can
also use it to play audio CDs recorded with a PC and not with a CD recorder, as
usually is the case.

This is an automated PTH that can play audio CDs and not record them. For example,
if you want to playback songs stored on your computer, you can use this machine.

1. Filter, coupler, splitter, combiner, and mixer

We can use the Taconic TLF-35A to route audio signals. The built-in optical sensor
makes it easy to align the disc with the sensor, and therefore, it is easier to plug into
any system. (The coupler, splitter, and combiner work the same way.)

2. Antenna

The Taconic TLF-35A has a pre-amplifier and a mixer that make it easy to connect to
an antenna. We can use this type of PTH for a PC or other device with an antenna
such as a TV or VCR.

3. High power Amplifier, TMA, TMB, LNA

The Taconic TLF-35A is significant in high power amplification. We can achieve this
by using the TMA. Generally, we need a high-power amplifier when we use an
antenna as the input source of the PTH. The TMB is also available if required.

To connect to a PC via a S/PDIF interface, we must connect a digital transmission

receiver that uses the USB interface to the “SPDIF Out.” We can achieve this by
using the TMB.

4. Power Supply

A power supply is not required since the main power supply is an AC inverter. The
DC input is 5V and 100mA and can power a PC with a USB interface if necessary
(for example, to connect to the PC via a S/PDIF interface). Also, we can use the USB
interface for data transfer from a PC to the PTH.

5. Repeater

The Taconic TLF-35A has a built-in repeater, so it is possible to connect to the

Taconic TLF-35A by using an antenna and from an antenna. This is possible because
of the flexible design of this PTH. The default settings are connecting the PTH to an
antenna, but if you want to use the wireless LAN function, “Wireless Control” is
available. This mode uses a wireless connection using the 802.11b standard.

6. Passive components

It is possible to use a 100V switch mode or a standard AC power supply. The power
consumption is approximately 4W.

7. Decoupling circuits

Many electronic components contain some static electricity. Some of these

components can reduce static discharge when used in sensitive components such as
PCB Manufacturing & Assembly Services https://www.raypcb.com/
 RAYMING PCB & ASSEMBLY

CD players. Using these parts can prevent damage to the sensitive components when
used under specific conditions.

8. Medical scanners

We can use these to read the medical data from a patient’s pulse, etc. These medical
scanner designs are industrial PTHs. This type of PTH has many functions and can
apply RF energy when necessary.

Conclusion

A significant feature of the new Taconic TLF-35A is increasing performance through

PCB technology. The Taconic TLF-35A is ideal for use in hospitals and hotels. We
must always connect an AC power source because it can be easily handled and
transported, and we can remove the AC power cable when not in use. The new
Taconic TLF-35A comes with a three-year warranty period.

The PIMD, not unlike the predecessor TLF-35A, will produce some of the
best-sounding music you’ve ever heard in your vehicle. The Taconic has only four
channels and has a PLL design susceptible to radio interference. We can nullify this
radio interference by using a soft muting feature in which the unit mutes for about two
seconds to clear out noise in the radio frequency area.
