All information (waveforms, text, graticules, and pictographs) is displayed by
the A20 CRT Driver. The driver generates the high voltages necessary to drive
the CRT. It also contains the video amplifier, horizontal oscillator, and the
vertical and horizontal yoke driver circuitry. The monitor gets its supply voltages
from the A25 Low Voltage Power Supply through the A01 Backplane and the
A07 Auxiliary Power boards.
The processor system sends instructions to and receives information from the
Front Panel Processor on the A06 Front Panel board. The Front Panel Processor
reads the front-panel switches and pots. Any changes in their settings are
reported to the processor system. The Front Panel Processor also turns the LEDs
on and off, generates the bell signal, and generates the probe compensation
signal PROBE ADJ. The Front Panel Processor also processes the probe coding
interface signals.
The ON/STBY switch is not read by the Front Panel Processor. The signal
passes through the A06 Front Panel board to the A03 CPU board. There it’s
converted to a control signal for the low voltage power supply.
The GPIB connector provides access to stored waveforms and allows external
control of the oscilloscope. Other connectors accessible from the rear panel are
the AUX TRIGGER/EXT CLOCK and VIDEO.
B010100 - B079999 instruments only
. The A07 Auxiliary Power circuitry
includes the principal power switch, fuse, line trigger transformer, and line filter.
It also distributes power to the monitor and fan.
B080000 and up instruments
. The Power Factor Module produces high voltage
DC for delivery to the Low Voltage Power Supply Module input. Power is taken
from the AC input by drawing current in a waveshape similar to and in phase
with that of the voltage waveshape. AC input connector, fuse, and line trigger are
included on this module.
