Astra 1220U Electronic Systems
The Astra 1220U consists of several electronic component systems which work together when a document
is scanned. The systems and their functions are described as follows (see Fig. 2-1 below).
A scanning lamp to illuminate the document.
An optical system that uses mirrors and lenses (the optical system) to focus the reflected light from the
surface of the document onto a Charged Coupled Device (CCD).
A mechanical system that uses a stepping motor attached to a gear assembly. The gear assembly drives
a timing belt to move the optical assembly (carriage) when scanning.
A photo-electrical conversion system, using a CCD which produces a string of analog electrical signals
representing a straight line image of a document.
An image processing system that converts the analog signals from the CCD into digital signals.
An interface board to connect the control signals of control circuit to image processing unit, the optical
system and transmission subsystem.

Service Manual
The Opto-Mechanical
The opto-mechanical system consists of the following (see Fig. 2-2 below):
Three mirrors to guide the optical path from the document being scanned to the image sensor.
One lense to focus and reduce the size of the image.
Resolution of Lens is 600dpi.
A support chassis for the mounting of mirrors, lens mount, and CCD.
A stepping motor, gear train, and timing belt to move the optical system.
Note: Please be sure to keep all dirt, dust, moisture, and oil away from the optical system. Any small spot
in the optical system will adversely affect the image quality.
