7-A-1. INTRODUCTION
7-A-2. This Service Group has the DC Volts and DC
Current troubleshooting information for the 3478A. The
Service Group is symptoms oriented (i.e., what fails) with
two different levels of troubleshooting. The first level
determines the general area of the 3478A that causes
the failure and the second level has specific
troubleshooting information for the area that fails.
Unless otherwise specified, refer to Schematic 1 when
using the troubleshooting procedures.
CAUTION
The instrument contains CMOS Integrated
Circuits (e.g. U102) which are extremely
susceptible to failures due to static
discharge. It is especially important that
grounded tools and wrist straps be used
when handling or troubleshooting these
components.
7-A-3. PRE-TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION
7-A-4. Before doing any troubleshooting procedures,
perform the following:
a. Check the 3478A’s Floating Common Power
Supplies and make sure they are stable, have the correct
value, and are not oscillating. The power supplies are as
follows (see Schematic 4):
Power Checked Voltage
Supply at Level
+ 5V JM701 + 4.9V to + 5 . 1V
-15V JM702 -14.4V to -15.6V
+15V JM703 +14.4V to +15.6V
b. Check and make sure the Reference Supplies
are at the correct level and quiet. The +10V supply can
be checked at U405 pin 6, the -10V supply at U404 pin 6,
and the bu10V supply at JM201 (see Schematic
3).
c. Make sure the Front/Rear Switch is making good
contact and not open.
7-A-5. DC VOLTS TROUBLESHOOTING
7-A-6. Typical DC Volts Failures are Overload,
Inaccurate, Constant Zero, Floating, or Noisy Readings
on all or some ranges. The following paragraphs have
the failures and the troubleshooting procedures (see
paragraph 7-30 for a description of these failures).
7-A-7. Overload, Floating, Constant Zero (with input
applied), or Noisy Readings on All Ranges
7-A-8. If a failure is noted on all ranges, the failure can
be caused by the Input Circuitry (Input Switching or
DC/Ohms Input Amplifier) or by the A/D Converter. To
determine the inoperative circuitry, do the procedure
which follows this paragraph (the same procedure is
