All
voltages
given
on
the diagrams are
in
volts.
W'aveforms
shown
are
actual
waveform photographs taken with a
Tek-
tronix
Oscilloscope Camera System and Projected
Graticule.
Voltages
and waveforms on the diagrams (shown
in
blue}
are
not
absolute
and may vary between instruments because
of differing component
tolerances, internal
calibration or
front-panel control
settings.
