2 Generating Sync Signals

2.1 Outline

Part 2>Chapter 4>2 “Generating the BD Signal”

The BD signal used to synchronize the video signals in laser scanning direction is gener- ated by the BD PCB with reference to the laser beam reflected by the BD mirror mounted in the path of the laser beam.

The edge of paper re-picked in double-sided mode is detected by the horizontal registra- tion sensor to measure the displacement to the rear/front. Based on the measurement, the timing of laser activation is changed with reference to the BD signal so that the image will be placed at a specific position on the paper without fail.
