*'''Switch board components'''
**'''Switches''': Power and Eject buttons
**'''Green and Red leds''', all switch board models have them, are needed to show the standby/poweron modes and the infamous YLOD
**'''Eject led''', this is the only led not controlled by syscon, the line goes to the bluray controller, so is the bluray controller who decides when is lighted on
**'''White backlight leds''', this was added for PS3 slim models with the new case design and the new pressure buttons (not touch sensitive)
**'''Unknown subcircuit leds''', this seems some kind of experiment that escaped the prototyping table and entered retail production, for some reason exists in some retail PS3 but seems deactivated and partially unpopulated
**'''IC''', there are a couple of "chips" only in the first model of the switch board, probably related with the touch sensitive feature and maybe others

note: boardmodel naming seems thus first letter of SKU motherboard (C=COK / D=DYN / K-KTE / M=MSX/MPX) + "SW-001" (with some exception, like the HSW-001 seen above)


== CSW-001 ==
*'''Switch board circuit overview''' (based on how [[HSW-001]] works, this could be different for other switch board models)
**When Power or Eject switches are pressed the correlating syscon pins are pulled down (grounded)
**All LED's have its own resistor with a different value to control the current (thus light intensity) and one or more diodes to protect the circuit
**The LED's on the switch board are turned on either by syscon (all them except one) or by the BD drive controller (only the eject blue led) by using an intermediary transistor
**That transistors connects the LED ground pin to ground when the signal to turn them on is sent by syscon or by the BD drive controller (the other pin of the LED is connected permanently to the 5 volts standby line)

*Notes
 
**The names of the first Switch Board models are composed by the first letter of the first PS3 motherboard that used the switch board + the suffix '''SW''' (acronym of '''SW'''itch). E.g: [[COK-001|'''C'''OK-001]]=[[CSW-001|'''C'''SW-001]], [[DYN-001|'''D'''YN-001]]=[[DSW-001|'''D'''SW-001]]
<gallery>
**Since [[CECH-21xx]]/[[SUR-001]] the first character of the switch board name indicates the [[Chassis_ID|Chasis Type]], included in the [[Platform ID]]. E.g: [[SUR-001]] = Cok'''H'''11 so his switch board was named [[HSW-001|'''H'''SW-001]]

PS3 2000 series [[CECH-20xx]] (with Switch board [[DSW-001]]), [[CECH-21xx]] and [[CECH-25xx]] (with Switch board [[HSW-001]]) has been designed to have a lighted line all around the top edge of the Switch board


PS3 2000 series ([[CECH-20xx]], [[CECH-21xx]], and [[CECH-25xx]], with power eject boards DSW-001 and HSW-001) has been designed to have a lighted line all around the top edge of the power eject board
The plastic plate uses a "light reactive" material along the edge and in a squared hole in the corner allows the light to "transpass" it


This is clearly visible in the plastic "light reactive" material used in the edge, and the square hole in the corner that allows the light to "transpass" the surface (with a 45 degrees angle bouncing surface at top of the hole that aligns the light rays in paralell to the buttons surface)
The ligth rays "bounces" inside this material, and the first bouncing surface over the squared hole is a plane at 45 degrees angle. This first bounce aligns the light rays in paralell to the board, the next bounces happens all along the curved surface in horizontal


Under this square there are 2 leds (placed in opposite directions and diferent type, and another 2 missing leds at this side for a total of 4 leds) that are connected to a group of capacitors, resistors, and transistors (most of them not populated) and to the ribbon cable (that goes to syscon)
The reflection of this surfaces can be increased a bit with chrome stickers (or alluminium tape). The case has a plane border of 3,5mm x 17,7cm perfect to stick in it, this way the glue layer of the sticker is at the other side, but the case doesnt have the 45 degrees surface (it has a weird hole instead), you can use other colors for the sticker/s because the color is partially visible from outside (preferably lighter colors or one that matches your led/s color to enhance it)


Why is this subcircuit present in this power eject boards is a mystery, obviously it was designed to be lighted but at some point somebody declined the idea (maybe poor lighting, maybe too scandalous for sony taste, who knows)... the point is the components are missing, so this leds at the corner are disabled from factory
For more detailed info about this boards see: [[DSW-001]] and [[HSW-001]] pages


To re-enable them is not only needed to populate the missing components, is also needed to be sure syscon is sending the correct signal to controll them (we have no idea when are supposed to be lighted). The components missing are easy to identificate because are the same than the others present at his side

*Notes
| PS3 [[CECH-20xx]] Switch board [[DSW-001]]. Tests || PS3 [[CECH-25xx]] Switch board [[HSW-001]]. Enabled subcircuit with 2 leds (blue + red)
**this mod is not recommended, because the "bridged" line is taking too much current from the new leds, because doesnt even explain what is each line, because the leds are not controlled by syscon as originally was designed
|}
**He didnt taked care of the "bouncing surface" over the square (barelly visible in the photos) and along the curve... all the "light reactive" surface needs to be covered with a "mirror" sticker to make the light rays to "bounce" first in paralell direction to the surface, and then bounce again along the curve. This sticker doesnt exists (because they decided to disable all this), but for sure it was in the initial design to preserve the lighting

Description[edit | edit source]

The Switch board is a daughterboard where are located the input switches, and some leds for outputs and fireworks

  • Switch board components
    • Switches: Power and Eject buttons
    • Green and Red leds, all switch board models have them, are needed to show the standby/poweron modes and the infamous YLOD
    • Eject led, this is the only led not controlled by syscon, the line goes to the bluray controller, so is the bluray controller who decides when is lighted on
    • White backlight leds, this was added for PS3 slim models with the new case design and the new pressure buttons (not touch sensitive)
    • Unknown subcircuit leds, this seems some kind of experiment that escaped the prototyping table and entered retail production, for some reason exists in some retail PS3 but seems deactivated and partially unpopulated
    • IC, there are a couple of "chips" only in the first model of the switch board, probably related with the touch sensitive feature and maybe others


  • Switch board circuit overview (based on how HSW-001 works, this could be different for other switch board models)
    • When Power or Eject switches are pressed the correlating syscon pins are pulled down (grounded)
    • All LED's have its own resistor with a different value to control the current (thus light intensity) and one or more diodes to protect the circuit
    • The LED's on the switch board are turned on either by syscon (all them except one) or by the BD drive controller (only the eject blue led) by using an intermediary transistor
    • That transistors connects the LED ground pin to ground when the signal to turn them on is sent by syscon or by the BD drive controller (the other pin of the LED is connected permanently to the 5 volts standby line)

Contour backlight in PS3 2000 Series boards[edit | edit source]

Switch board PS3 2000 series
Light rays schematic in contour leds

PS3 2000 series CECH-20xx (with Switch board DSW-001), CECH-21xx and CECH-25xx (with Switch board HSW-001) has been designed to have a lighted line all around the top edge of the Switch board

The plastic plate uses a "light reactive" material along the edge and in a squared hole in the corner allows the light to "transpass" it

The ligth rays "bounces" inside this material, and the first bouncing surface over the squared hole is a plane at 45 degrees angle. This first bounce aligns the light rays in paralell to the board, the next bounces happens all along the curved surface in horizontal

The reflection of this surfaces can be increased a bit with chrome stickers (or alluminium tape). The case has a plane border of 3,5mm x 17,7cm perfect to stick in it, this way the glue layer of the sticker is at the other side, but the case doesnt have the 45 degrees surface (it has a weird hole instead), you can use other colors for the sticker/s because the color is partially visible from outside (preferably lighter colors or one that matches your led/s color to enhance it)
