11.10 Signals at TP501 and TP502
Introduction
If the VCXO and TCXO outputs are correct, the next stage is to check the
signals at the
TP
501
and
TP
502
test points. The procedure is divided into
three tasks:
■
Task 37 : check signal at
TP
502
■
Task 38 : check signal at
TP
501 and ground
TP
501 if loop is oscillating
■
Task 39 : check signal at
TP
502
with
TP
501
grounded
These checks will reveal any faults in the mixer and LPF circuitry, and any
additional fault in the VCXO circuitry.
Task 37 —
TP502 Test Point
Check the signal at the
TP
502 test point to determine if there is a fault in the
mixer or LPF (low-pass filter) circuitry:
1. Use the oscilloscope probe to check the difference frequency at the
TP
502 test point (see Figure 11.16 ). The signal is
SYN CDC FCL
and
should be:
2. If the signal is correct, go to Task 38 . If it is not, go to Step 3 .
3. The mixer or LPF circuitry under the
FCL TOP
can is faulty. Remove
the
FCL TOP
can.
4. Locate the fault in the mixer (IC501 and associated components) or
LPF circuitry (IC502 pins 5 to 7, and associated components)
(see
Figure 11.16 ).
5. Repair the circuitry. Note that the TCXO input to the mixer at
R521
(pin 4 of IC501) (see Figure 11.16 ) should be:
Also, the VCXO input to the mixer at R522 (pin 1 of IC501)
(see
Figure 11.16 ), although noisy and difficult to measure, should
be:
6. Confirm the removal of the fault and go to Task 38 . If the repair
failed, replace the main-board assembly and go to “Final Tasks” on
page 123 .
