Theory of Operation

E8362B, E8363B, E8364B

Digital Processing and Digital Control Group Operation

The digital processor and control group provides digital control for the entire analyzer. It
provides:

• front panel operation,

• output to the display,

• math processing functions, and

• communications between the analyzer and an external controller or peripherals.

A block diagram of the digital control functional group is shown in

Figure 5-9 on page 5-30

The digital control functional group consists of two subgroups:

•

Front Panel Subgroup

—

A1 Keypad Assembly

—

A2 Display Assembly

—

A3 Front Panel Interface Board

—

A14 system motherboard

•

Data Acquisition and Processing Subgroup

—

A6 SPAM Board (Digital Description)

—

A15 CPU Board

—
