Chapter 5: Troubleshooting
Power Supply Trouble Isolation
Reconnect Assemblies and Cables
Reconnect all assemblies after testing. The oscilloscope must have all cables connected for correct power
up.
If you want to test the power supply without any assemblies connected, the +5 V supply must be loaded
to 2 A. Use two 5 Ω , 10W resistors between the +5 V output and ground.
