KD2003-DF11A Printheads Compact medium speed thick film thermal printhead (8 dots / mm) KD2003-DF11A KD2003-DF11A built in new and high density driver IC developed by the cutting edge technologies realizes the highest speed in the same class (250mm/s) at both Thermal Transfer and Direct Thermal. This Thermal Printhead is suitable for POS, ATM, KIOSK and TICKET industries which require High Speed / High Density and Graphic printing. By the implementation of highly durable protective coat, it achieves 150km as the standard abrasion life. zApplications POS printers ATM printers KIOSK printers Ticket printers zFeatures 1) The use of a special partial glaze and the latest heating element structure, along with new high-density driver chips that can accept big current, has allowed ROHM to achieve print speeds of 250mm/s with using thermal history control, the fastest in its class ( with historical control ). 2) One rank resistance value of 650Ω ± 3% eliminates the inconvenience of rank selection. 3) The required driving voltage of 3.15 to 5.25V allows wide range of power supply voltage setting. This also allows multiple choice of electronic components for printers. 4) With the standard abrasion life of 150km, long life is achieved against the largely abrasive thermal paper. zDimensions (Unit : mm) 91 5.1±0.4 80 (EFFECTIVE PRINT WITH) 4±0.2 φ2 0.0 2.6±0.1 DOT #1 No.15 No.1 No.15 CONNECTOR B No.1 CONNECTOR A 5±0.2 81±0.2 5.1±0.2 10.2±0.2 MAX. 20 DOT #640 2-M3 EFFECTIVE DEPTH 3 1/4 KD2003-DF11A Printheads zEquivalent circuit VH 13,14,15 GND 1,2,3,4, 5 VSF 12 DOT #640 5 L/S DOT #1 4 3 2 1,2,3,4 VH 12,13,14,15 GND 9 STB1 1 STB5 9 10 STB2 STB4 8 11 STB3 LATCH REGISTER 11 DI SHIFT REGISTER NC 10 TM 6 TM 7 6 LAT 5 7 DO CLK 8 VDD THERMISTOR 30kΩ B3950 CONNECTOR B CONNECTOR A Fig.1 zPin assignments CONNECTOR A No. Circuit CONNECTOR B No. Circuit 1 VH 1 GND 2 VH 2 GND 3 VH 3 GND 4 VH 4 GND 5 DO 5 GND 6 LAT 6 TM 7 CLK 7 TM 8 VDD 8 STB4 9 STB1 9 STB5 10 STB2 10 N.C. 11 STB3 11 DI 12 GND 12 VSF 13 GND 13 VH 14 GND 14 VH 15 GND 15 VH 2/4 KD2003-DF11A Printheads zTiming chart tw CLK CLOCK (CLK) t setup DI t hold DI DATA IN (DI) “High”:BLACK “Low” :WHITE td DO DATA OUT (DO) “High”:BLACK “Low” :WHITE t setup LAT t hold LAT LATCH (LAT) “High”:HOLD “Low” :THROUGH tw LAT t setup STB STROBE (STB) tdo tdo DRIVER OUT Fig.2 zCharacteristics Parameter Symbol Typical Unit Effective printing width − 80 mm Dot pitch − 0.125 mm − 640 dots Rave 650 Ω Total dot number Average resistance value Applied voltage VH 24 V Applied power PO 0.78 W/dot Print cycle SLT 0.5 ms Pulse width TON 0.19 ms Maximum number of dots energized simultaneously − 384 dots Maximum clock frequency − 16 MHz Maximum roller diameter − φ20 Running life / pulse life − 150/1×10 km/pulses Operating temperature − 5 to 45 °C mm 8 3/4 KD2003-DF11A Printheads zElectrical characteristic curves 1.8 0.8 Paper : KF50-HDA (OJI) 0.7 0.7 1.4 0.5 0.4 0.3 0.6 ENERGY (mJ/dot) OPTICAL DENSITY 0.6 ENERGY (mJ/dot) 0.8 SLT : 1.25ms/line 1.6 1.2 1.0 0.8 0.6 0.5 0.4 0.3 0.2 0.4 0.2 0.1 0.2 0.1 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 SCANNING LINE TIME (ms/line) 0.0 0.00 0.05 0.10 0.15 0.20 0.25 0.30 ENERGY (mJ/dot) Fig.3 Adaptive speed chart Fig.4 Representative density curve 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 SCANNING LINE TIME (ms/line) Fig.5 Maximum energy curve 180 160 RESISTANCE : (kΩ) 140 120 100 80 60 40 20 0 −20 −10 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 TEMPERATURE : (°C) Fig.6 Thermistor curve 4/4 Appendix Notes No technical content pages of this document may be reproduced in any form or transmitted by any means without prior permission of ROHM CO.,LTD.
