2.2
SCM (Single-chip-machine) Circuit This segment is consisted of SCM 89C52, Panel Input, Frequency & Amplitude Display and Output & Indicator circuits. The main jobs are: Control waveform of output signal; Test and display the frequency of output or external input signal; Display amplitude of output waveform.
2.3
Frequency Counting Circuit: It is consisted of Broad-banded Amplifier and Square-waveform Regulator, which external signal will go through.
2.4
Power Amplifier In order to insure the stability and high slew rate, dual channel power amplifier is employed. The entire amplifier is with the characteristic of phase inversion.
2.5
FM Mode When SWP/FM switch being pressed down and MOD switch is pulled up, a 1KHz modulation signal which generated by RC oscillator is applied to VCF end.
2.6
Power Supply Four sets of power supply, ±23V/±15V/±5V/+5 are employed. ±23V is used for Amplifier. ±15V and ±5V are used for Waveform Generator. +5V is mainly for SCM circuit. 6
3. Structure This instrument has an all-metal frame and cover, plastic front panel with a elegant and small-sized appearance. Most of the components (including switches and knobs) are fixed on two PCBs. All adjustable components are located at an easy-to-adjust position. Only to unscrew the back panel and remove the cover up and down when the instrument need to be adjusted or repaired.

Service and Calibration This instrument can be operated continuously in proper ambient, but you are advised to calibrate it every three months. Calibration procedure is as: 1) Sine Distortion Calibrating: Turn Amplitude Adjusting Knob to its max, select sine waveform output and set frequency at 1kHz. Connect this signal to a distortion meter. Adjust RP102 to have distortion match technical requirement. 2) Output Amplitude Calibrating: Set the instrument in the same working status as 1), connect the signal to an oscilloscope. With observing peak-peak value of the output signal, adjust RP601 to have the output amplitude match technical requirement. 3) Frequency Calibrating: Set frequency counter at “EXT”, connect a 10MHz signal of standard oscillator to the input terminal. Adjust C607 to get standard 9999.9kHz on the LED display. Set the amplitude of the standard signal to 100mVrms, adjust RP401 to have 9999.9kHz stably displayed on LED.

Trouble Shooting Sufficient knowledge is needed when you are going to fix problems on this instrument. Locate the problem area in PCB by with observing the phenomenon, visual inspection is suggested in first place, and then check the PCB in static and dynamic mode. Replace the component which is found broken.
