SCB-68 Circuit Diagram for SE Input Attenuation
Install resistors in positions B and F, or positions D and G, depending on
the channel you are using on the SCB-68. Use Equations 5-14 or 5-15 to
calculate the gain of the circuit:
(5-14)
(5-15)
Differential Input Attenuators
To build a three-resistor circuit for attenuating voltages at the differential
inputs of the SCB-68, refer to Figure 5-21.
Figure 5-21.
SCB-68 Circuit Diagram for DIFF Input Attenuation
Install resistors in positions E, F, and G of the chosen differential channel
pair. Use Equation 5-16 to determine the gain of the circuit:
