Principles of operation
The following information is provided to support the troubleshooting tests and procedures
covered in this section of the manual. Refer to the following drawings:

Overall block diagram
Figure 4-1 shows an overall block diagram of the Model 2410. Circuitry is divided into three
general areas:
• Analog circuits —
includes circuits such as the DACs, clamps, output stage, and
feedback circuits, as well as measurement circuits such as the A/D converter.
• Digital circuits — includes the microcomputer that controls the analog section, front
panel, and the GPIB and RS-232 ports, as well as associated interfacing circuits.
• Power supplies — converts the AC line voltage into DC voltages that supply the power
for the digital and analog circuits, and the output stage.
