Diagrams.
Circuit
diagrams
are
given
on foldout
pages
in
Section
9.
The
component
number
and
electrical
value
of
each
component
in
this
instrument
are
shown
on
the
diagrams.
Each
main circuit is
assigned
a
series
of
com
ponent
numbers. Table
4-1
lists
the main
circuits in
the
Type
3B5
and
the
series
of
component
numbers
assigned
to
each.
Important
voltages
and
waveforms are also shown on
the
diagrams.
The
portions of
the
circuit mounted
on
circuit
boards
or cards are
enclosed
with
a blue line.
Switch
Wafer
Identification.
Switch
wafers
shown
on
the
diagrams
are
coded
to
indicate
the
position
of
the
wafer
in
the
complete
switch
assembly.
The
numbered
portion
of
the
code
refers
to
the
wafer number
counting from
the
front,
or
mounting
end
of
the
switch,
toward
the
rear.
The
letters
F
and
R indicate
whether
the
front
or rear
of
the
wafer
performs
the
particular
switching
function.
For
example,
a
wafer
designated
2R
indicates
that
the
rear of
the
second
wafer
is
used
for
this
particular
switching
function.

Boards
and

Fig.
4-6
through
4-13
show
the
circuit
boards
and
cards
used
in
the
Type
3B5.
Fig.
4-5
shows
the
location of
each
board
within
the
instrument.
Each
electrical
component
on
the boards
is
identified
by
its
circuit
number.
The circuit
boards
and
cards are
also
outlined
on
the
diagrams
with
a blue
line.
These
pictures
used
along
with
the
diagrams
will aid in
locating
the
com
ponents
mounted
on
the
circuit
boards
and
cards.
Wiring
Color-Code.
All
insulated
wire
and
cable
used
in
the
Type
3B5
is
color-coded
to
facilitate
circuit
tracing.
Signal
carrying
leads
are
identified
with
one
or
two
colored
stripes. Voltage
supply
leads are
identified
with
three
stripes
to
indicate
the
approximate
voltage using the
EIA
resistor
color code.
A
white
background
color
indicates
a
positive
voltage
and
a
tan
background
indicates
a
negative
voltage.
Table
4-2
gives
the
wiring
color-code
for
the
power-supply
voltages
used
in
the
Type
3B5.
Resistor
Color-Code.
In
addition
to
the
brown
composi
tion
resistors,
some
metal-film
resistors
(identifiable
by
their
gray
or
blue
body
color)
and
some
wire-wound
resistors
(usually
light blue or
gray-green)
are
used
in
the
Type
3B5.
The
resistance
values
of
wire-wound
resistors
are printed
on
the
body
of
the
component.
The
resistance values
of
com
position
resistors
and
metal-film
resistors
are
color-coded
on
the
components
(some metal-film resistors
may
have
the
value
printed on
the
body)
with
the
EIA
color-code. The
color-code is read starting
with
the
stripe
nearest
the
end
of
the
resistor.
Composition
resistors
have
four stripes
which
consist
of
two
significant
figures,
a
multiplier
and
a
tolerance
value
(see
Fig.
4-1).
Metal-film
resistors
have five
stripes
consisting
of
three
significant
figures,
a
multiplier
and
a
tolerance
value.

Capacitor
Marking.
The
capacitance values
of
common
disc
capacitors
and
small
electrolytics
are
marked
in
micro
farads
on
the
side
of
the
component
body.
The
white
ce
ramic
capacitors
used
in
the
Type 3B5
are
color
coded
in
picofarads
using
a modified
EIA
code (see Fig.
4-1),
Diode
Color
Code.
The
cathode
end
of
each
glass-
encased
diode
is
indicated
by
a
stripe,
a
series
of
stripes
or
a
dot.
For
most
silicon
or
germanium
diodes
with
a series
of
stripes,
the
color-code
also
indicates
the
type
of
diode
and
identifies
the
Tektronix
Part
Number
using
the
resistor
color-code system
(e.g.,
a diode
color-coded
blue-brown-
gray-green
indicates
diode
type
6185
with
Tektronix Part
Number
152-0185
-00).
The
cathode
and
anode
end
of
metal-
encased
diodes
can
be
identified
either
by
the
diode
symbol
marked
on
the
body
or
by
the
flared
end
at
the
anode.
