the O N /O FF circuitry and the optional oven oscillator are
powered.
The AC/DC module should not be repaired. Not even the
built-in fuse should be replaced. Built-in circuits protect
against external overloads, so a blown fuse indicates that a se
-
vere internal fault has occurred. Replace the complete module
instead.
Test the AC/DC module by measuring the three DC voltages
inTP9(+5.1±0.05V),TP21(-15±1V)andTP26
(+15 ± 1 V) on the main circuit board. See Figure 6-55. Note
that there is a +5 V trimmer on the module. If the +5 V is not
correct, disconnect the cable to J17 on the main circuit board.
Put a 47 W 1 W resistor on the connector according to Figure
6-55. Measure on the connector +5.1 ± 0.05 V, +15 ± 1 V and
-15±1V.
It can be dif ficult to measure the resistance in the supply con
-
nector J17 on the main circuit board, because charges are kept
by capacitors some ti me after line power is removed. Remove
the cable from the AC/DC module. The resistance between
+5 V and ground should be approximatel y 700 W. See Figure
6-55. In a timer/counter with all capacitors uncharged, +15 V
and -15 V should be >1 MW.
Another way to test J17 is to connect 3 DC voltages from a
separate bench power supply directly to J17 (suitable connec
-
tor MOLEX 09-91-0600). See Figure 6-55. The currents
drawn from the different supply voltages depend on options
installed. Before making this measurement, you should re
-
move any prescaler option.
A timer/counter without options gives the following typical
results:
+5 V 0.7 A
+15 V 0.3 A
- 15 V 0.4 A
The oven oscillator increases the + 15 V current between
0.35 A (cold) and 0.1 A (warm).
A block diagram of the secondary power supply is shown in
Figure 6-54. All secondary voltages are switched off in
standby mode except +12 VU for the optional oven oscillator.
The ON/OFF circuitry controls the ON and OFF of the sec-
ondary voltages. Its own supply voltage is always ON, as long
as the instrument is connected to line power. See Figure 6-59.
