INTRODUCTION This section contains the theory of operation of the Model 3400A RMS Voltmeter. Included is. a general and detailed description of the theory of operation. 4-3, GENERAL DESCRIPTION. 4-4. ‘The Model 3400A comprises two attenuators, an impedance converter, a video amplifier, a photo: conductor chopper (modulator/demodulator), chop- per amplifier, an emitter follower, a thermocouple pair, and a direct reading meter. ‘(See Figure 4-1.) 4-5. A signal being measured with the Model 34004, 4s applied to input attenuator A through the INPUT jack, located on the Model 340A front panel. The input attenuator has an input impedance of over 10 megohms and provides two ranges of attenuation, ‘The output of the input attenuator is applied to imped ance converter A2, The impedance converter is a non-inverting unity voltage gain amplifier, Tt presents 4 high impedance to the input signal and provides a ow impedance output to drive the second attenuator AB. The second attenuator provides 6 ranges in a 1, 8, 10 sequence. The two attenuators are switched to provide 12 ranges of attenuation. 4-6. The output of the second attenuator is amplified by video amplifier Ad. ‘The video amplifier Is a wide- band, five stage amplifier. The overall gain of the video amplifier 18 controlled by an ac feedback loop. The ac output of the amplifier is applied to TC404; one of the thermocouples of the thermocouple pair. 4-1, ‘The de output of TC401 is modulated by mod- ulator AS, The modulator comprises two photocells which are alternately illuminated by two neon lamps ‘which in turn are controlled by the oscillator located ‘on power supply assembly AT. The output of the ‘modulator is a square wave whose amplitude is pro- portional to the de input level 4-8. The square wave output of the modulator is amplified by chopper amplifier A6. The chopper amplifier is a high gain ac amplifier. Its output is applied to demodulator AS. ‘The demodulator outpat is.a de level whose magnitude is proportional to the amplitude of the ac input, ‘The demodulator output is applied to two direct coupled emitter followers. The emitter follower is used to make the impedance trans formation from the high impedance output of the de- modulator to the low impedance of the direct reading meter M1 and TC402; the second thermocouple of the thermocouple pair. 4-9, The thermocouple pair TC401 and TC402 acts a8 a summing point for the ac output of the video amplifier A4 and the de output of the emitter followers. ‘The difference in the heating effect of these voltages is felt as a de input to modulator AS. This difference ‘input is amplified and is fed to TC402 and to meter Mi. This amplified de voltage represents the rms value of the ac signal applied at the INPUT jack. By using two "matched" thermocouples and measuring the difference, the output to the modulator will be Linear, Using two thermocouples also provides temperature stability. 4-10. ‘The de voltage driving meter M1 is also available at the DC OUT jack, located at the rear of the Model 3400. 4-11. DETAILED DESCRIPTION. 4-12, INPUT ATTENUATOR ASSEMBLY A. 4-13. ‘The input attenuator assembly is a eapacitive- compensated attenuator which provides two ranges of attenuation for the 12 positions of the RANGE switeh, See input aitenuator schematic diagram illustrated on Figure 6-1, 4-14, When the RANGE switch is positioned to one of the six most sensitive ranges (.001 to .8 VOLTS), the attenuator output voltage is equal to the input voltage. When the RANGE witch is positioned to one of six highest ranges (1 to 300 VOLTS), the input sig~ tal is attenuated 60 dB (1000: 1 voltage division) by the resistive voltage divider consisting of R101, R103, and R104, ‘Trimmer C102 is adjusted at 100 kiiz, and R104 is adjusted at 400 Hz to provide constant atten uation over the input frequeney range. 4-15, IMPEDANCE CONVERTER AS: MBLY A2, 4-16, ‘The impedance converter assembly utilizes a anuvistor tube cathode follower cireuit to match the high output impedance of the input attenuator to the low input impedance of the second attenuator. The cathode follower circuit preserves the phase relation- ship of the input and output signals while maintaining 2 gain of unity, See impedance converter assembly Schematic diagram illustrated on Figure 6-1 4-17, The ac signal input to the impedance converter is RC coupled to the grid of cathode follower V201 ‘through C201 and R203, The output signal is devel- oped by Q201 which acts as a variable resistance in the cathode circuit of V201. The bootstrap feedback from the cathode of V201 to R203 Increases the effective resistance of R203 to the input signal, This prevents R203 from loading the input signal and pre- Serves the high input impedance of the Model 2400A, ‘The gain compensating feedback from the plate of ‘V201 to the base of Q201 compensates for any varying ain in V201 due to age or replacement, 4-18, Breakdown diode CR201 controls the grid bias 4aSection 1V voltage on V201 thereby establishing the operating point of this stage. CR202 and R211 across the base- emitter junction of Q201 protects Q201 in the event of a failure in the +75 volt power supply. Regulated de is supplied to V201 filaments to avoid inducing ae hum in the signal path. This also prevents the gain of V201 ‘changing with line voltage variations. 4-19, SECOND ATTENUATOR ASSEMBLY A3, 4-20, The second attenuator is a resistive divider which attenuates the ac input signal while maintaining a low impedance output for the following amplification Stages, See second attenuator assembly schematic Giagram illustrated in Figure 6-1. 4-21, ‘The ac input signal is applied to a precision resistance voltage divider consisting of R902 through R312. These resistors are arranged to give six ranges of attenuation at 10 dB per range. The six ranges of the second attenuator combined with the two ranges of the input attenuator make up the 12 ranges of attenuation (0.001 to 300V), Trimmer capacitor (€303 (10 MHz 0.3V ADJ) provides an adjustment for frequency response at the higher frequencies, 4-22, VIDEO AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY A\ 4-23, ‘The video amplifier functions to provide con- stant gain to the ac signal being measured over the entire frequency range of Model 3400A. See video amplifier assembly schematie diagram iMustrated on Figure 6-2. 4-24, ‘Tho ac input signal from the secondattenuator 4s coupled through C402 to the base of input amplifier Q401. QHO1, a class A amplifier, amplifies and in- verts the signal which is then direct coupled to the base of bootstrap amplifier Q402. The output, taken from Q402 emitter is applied to the base of Q403 and fed back to the top of R406 as a bootstrap feedback. ‘This positive ac feedback increases the effective ac resistance of R408 allowing a greater portion of the signal to be felt at the base of Qi02, In this manner, the effective ac gain of Q401 is increased for the mid band frequencies without disturbing the static operating voltages of Q401. 4-25, Driver amplifier Q403 further amplifies the fac signal and the output at Q403 collector is fed to the base circuit emitter follower Q404. The feedback path from the collector of Q403 to the base of Q402 through C405 (10 MHz ADJ) prevents spurious oscil~ lations at high input frequencies. A de feedback loop exists from the emitter circuit of Q408, to the base ‘of Q4OL through R425, This feedback stabilizes the (QUO1 bias voltage. Emitter follower QiO4 acts as a driver for the output amplifier consisting of Q405 and 06; a complimentary pair operating as a push-pull amplifier, The video amplifier output is taken trom the collectors of the output amplifiers and applied to thermocouples TCA0I. A gain stabilizing feedback is @eveloped in the emitter eireuits of the output ampli- fiers, This negative feedback is applied tothe emitter of input amplifier Qi01 and establishes the overall gain of the video amplifier. 42 ‘Model 24004, 4-26, ‘Trimmer capacitor C405 is adjusted at 10 Miz {or frequency response of the video amplifier. Diodes ‘CR&O2 and CR406 are protection diodes which prevent voltage surges from damaging transistors. in the video amplifier, R401, CR407, and CR408 are ‘temperature compensating diodes to maintain the zero signal balance condition in the output amplifier over the operating temperature range. CR4Q3, a break- down diode, establishes the operating potentials for the output amplifier, 4-27. PHOTOCHOPPER ASSEMBLY AS, CHOPPER ‘AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY A8, AND THERMO- ‘COUPLE PAIR (PART OF AW]. 4-28, ‘The modulator/demodulator, chopper ampli- fier,” and thermocouple pair form a servo loop which functions to position the direct reading meter M1 to the rms value of the ac input signal. See modulator/ demodulator, chopper amplifier, and thermocouple pair schematic diagram illustrated in Figure 6-3. 4-29, ‘The video amplifier output signal is applied to the heater of thermocouple TC401. This ae voltage causes a de voltage to be generated in the resistive portion of TC401 which is proportional to the heating effect (rms value) of the ac input. The de voltage is applied to photocell V501. 4-30, Photocells V501 and V502 in conjunction with neon lamps DS501 and D$502 form « modulator cir ceait, The neon lamps are lighted alternately between 90 and 100 Hz, Each lamp illuminates one of the photocells, DS501 illuminates V501;DS502 illuminates 'V502. When a photocell is illuminated it has a low resistance compared to its resistance when dark. ‘Therefore, when V501 is illuminated, the output of thermocouple TC401 is applied to the input of the chopper amplifier through V501. When V502 is i1lumi- nated, a ground signal is applied to the chopper amp- fier, “The alternate illumination of VS01 and V502 modulates the de input at a frequency between 90 and 100 Hz, ‘The modulator output is a square wave whose amplitude is proportional to the de input level. 4-31, The chopper amplifier, consisting of Q601 through (605, is a high gain amplifier which amplifies the square wave developed by the modulator. Power supply voltage variations are reduced by diodes CR601 thru CR603. The amplified output is taken from the collector of Q503 and applied to the demodulator through emitter follower Q604. 4-32, ‘The demodulator comprises two photocells, ‘V503 and V504, which operate in conjunction with S501 and DS502; the same neon lamps usedto illumal- rate the photocells in the modulator. Photocells V503 land V504 are illuminated by DS501 and DS502, res- peetively. 4-28. ‘The demodulation process is the reverse of the modulation procese discussed in Paragraph 4-30. ‘The output of the demodulator is a de level whieh is, proportional to the demodulator input. The magnitude And phase of the input square wave determines the magnitude and polarity of the de output level. This de ‘output level is applied to two emitter follower output stages.Modet 34008 4-34, ‘The emitter follower is needed to mateh the high output impedance of the demodulator to the low input impedance of the meter and thermocouple cir- cults, ‘The voltage drop across CR604 in the collec- tor circuit of Q805 Is the operating bias for Q604. ‘This fixed bias prevents Q605 failure when the base voltage is zero with respect to ground. 4-85, ‘The de level output, takon from the emitter of Q606, is applied to meter MI and to the heating clement of thermocouple TC402, The de voltage de- veloped in the resistive portion of TC402 is effectively subtracted from the voltage developed by TC401. The Input signal to the modulator then becomes the differ- tence in the de outputs of the two thermocouples. When the difference between the two thermocouples becomes zero the de from the emitter followers (driving the meter) will be equal to the ac from the videoamplifier. 4-36. Noise on the modulated square wave is sup- pressed by feedback [rom emitter of Q606 through (C807 and C808 to the resistive element of TC402. 4.97, Pow SUPPLY ASSEMBLY AT. 4-88, ‘The power supply assombly provides de oper= ating voltages for the tube andtransistors used in the Modet 34008, See power supply assembly sehematle diagram illustrated on Figure 6-4 4-59, Either 115 or 230 volts ac is connected to the primary of power transformer Tl through fuse FY and the POWER switch SI.

The control amplifier then supplies any out~ put voltage changes to the driver transistor, which in turn changes the resistance of the series regulator to oppose the change in output vottage. Diodes CR704, CRTI3 and CRI06 across the base emitter junction of the series regulator provide overload current protection. Section IV 4-42, 415 VOLT SUPPLY. 4-43. The +15 volt supply consists of a full-wave rectifier (CR701 and CR702) whose output is filtered by CIA and C1B and regulated by series regulator Qi. ‘The #75 volt supply provides regulated +75 volts which is used as the plate supply voltage for V201. Voltage variation from tho output is felt at Q702 base circuit through C704, RT15, and RT16, ‘The C703 and R708 network provides phase correction for power supply Stability. The regulation circuitry is in the negative leg of the +75 volt supply, and uses the -17.5 volt supply as a reference, 4-44, -17.5 VOLT SUPPLY. 4-45, ‘The regulated -17.5 volt supply consists of a full-wave rectifier (CR711, and CR712) whose output is filtered by 7108 and C107 and regulated by Q2. Breakdown diod 2RT1S provides reference voltage at the base of Q. 1. Regulation operation is the same described in Parag, ~ph 4-41, 4-48, -6.8 VOLT SUPPLY. 4-47, ‘The regulated -6.3 volt supply consists of a fave rectifier (CR716 and CRT17) whose output is filtered by C2 and regulated by Q8. Emitter follow- er Q105 is connected to the -17. 5 volt supply which provides a reference for the -6. 3 volt supply. Series regulator Q3 acts as a dynamic variable resistor in series with the output to oppose changes in output voltage. 4-48, NEON LAMP DRIVE OSCILLATOR. 4-49, The neon lamp drive oscillator consists of transistor Q108, diode CR718, resistors R701, R702, R712, RIS, and capacitor C711. Transistor Q706 is held on (conducting) by the base bias developed at the junction of R712 and CR718. ‘The collector current ‘of Q106 charges up capacitor C711 through R101 or 702 depending upon the illuminated neon lamp onthe Chopper Amplifier Assembly AB. When the capacitor reaches a sufficient charge to fire the dark neon lamp, the illumination of the neon lamps alternate and the capacitor discharges through the previously dark neon amp. With the previously dark neon lamp illuminated, the capacitor charges up in the opposite direction until firing the previously illuminated neon lamp. ‘The eycle described above repeats at a frequency of 90 to 100 He as determined by the RC time constants of RTOLand C71, and R702 and C711. 43Seetion V Table 5-1, Required Test Equipment Modet 34004 INSTRUMENT |” pequineD CHARACTERISTICS se RECOMMENDED woe DC Voltmeter | Accuracy 0.1 Ril seale Performance Checks | “hp- Mods) 4408/8408 Voltage Hang! 1oniV fo 00V | AgjustmentandCatbrtion | “Digtat Votmeter Votmetor ] Votage Range: 1m to S00 nme | Pestormance Checks | “hp- Model 1905 VoI™ Trowbloshoating Supa Tay av Agjustinentandcabrtion | “Oselator Frequency Response: 0.25% Troubleshooting (Shrandseal) Osciioscope | sensitivity 0,005 v/em ‘ajastment ana Calioaton | “hp Moget 104/ Banca to 20 de Troutlesoaing ‘oan tib0A Pile Pals Wit Posformance Cheake | pe Mode 2144 Fresuency | Range: 250 fo 1000 ie Performance Checks | -Ap-Moaet 52551, Tine herve Thee Peak Votiage Range; 0.5v10000V | Pesformance Checks | tps model 4106 Tesponding | Meeuracy si fo seale MVoumeter Tyeraye | Votiage Range: 0,001 0 200 | Adjustment andaibration | “hp afoast 4008/50 Responding Accuracy: 1'b full scale ‘Troubleshooting.
