For reference, a. detailed fehemate diagram ie need in Section 5. 2.2, FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION 'A block diagram of the Fike 25/2 circuitry is showin Figure 2-1. As this figure shows, the instrument is composed of two major Functional sections the analog seston aad the digtal section. Each section contains one Iajor active componeat and one or more peripheral SSreita, Most anslog fonctions are performed by a ftom analog IC (UI) and analog peripherals to Ul Digital fonctions are performed by 2 CMOS, +i sierocomputer, U2 “The curtom analog ICconainsthe A/D converts, signal conditioning cout, and the digital control circuitry fequired for communiation with the microcomputer. ‘Although the custom IC is primarily analog, digital ‘Greuite provide state machiae contre for the A/D converter, a fead counter for A/D samples, decoding ROMs for analog switch drive, and bus contol for ‘communication withthe mirocomputer, “The microcomputer controls the A/D converter inate the range end function switching, formats data for display, and drives the display. The mode push buttons upp input to the microcomputer to initiate various ‘modes, Output from the microcomputer is displayed on {he iguid ental display (LCD), Section 2 Theory of Operation 2.9.

A ‘amp cireut(CR6and QIS) connecedto the vot/ ohms) ‘iode-tes inpot through Z1 and C3 provides similar pretection for the vols ohm diodexest input 2-5, Function Switching Circuits Input signals are routed from the overlond protection ‘irate fo the fonetion switch. The unetion Switch is 2 ovary swith with two double-sided wafers which provide‘THEORY OF OPERATION the necessary switching to selet each of the various functions In addition, battery voltage is routed through ‘he funeton switch rom the battery voltage regulator 0 Ul, and from UT 0 U2. 246. Signal Conditioning Circults Each input signa is routed though signal conditioning circuitry before reaching Ul. Input signals reosived ‘through the volts ohas/dode-tet input (1 are routed ‘through Z1, precision resistor network. The veistor network provides precise input sealing forthe varios Woltage ranges, and it provides precision reference "esstors forthe ohms fanetio. The capacitors paral ‘ith the various resistors in Zl are wed in thea voltage functions; the variable capacitors provide calibration adjustment forthe high frequency ae ranges. CCurrept inputs eeceived though the A) A input (32) land the A'input (3) develop a voltage across shunt resistors R14, R20, and R23 (320 yA, 32 mA, and (0A, Fespectinely). Restore RO and RIO comprise a 101 Gide for the 3200-uA and 320-mA curent ranges, 2-7. Custom Analog IC (U1) ‘The analog-o-igial converter, autorange switching, and most of the remaining active analog cireitry (ncading additional signal conditioning) are contained in Ul,a custom LSI package. Peripherals to UT include {he site clock, the reference voltage regultor forthe ‘A/D ‘converter, and. some filtering and. amplifier abiiztion components. Ul also contains digital Circuitry for state machine control over the A/D comerter phases, a read counter for A/D samples, ‘decoding ROMS for analog switch dviveandreadeountet preset, and risers t0 store contol output fom the Inirocompute. ‘Analogto-igal conversion i accomplished within UL ‘sing 4 modified dualsiope A/D converter circuit, at shown in Figure22.
