Interface 1000 Schematic/Block Diagrams

If you are not familiar with electronic schematics or potentiostats, you probably want to skip this chapter. This
information is for expert use only and is not required for routine use of the Interface 1000.
The following figures are partly schematic diagrams and partly block diagrams. They are intended to show the
basic principles of the Interface 1000 without the confusion of the full circuitry details. The complexity of the
Interface 1000 can be quite daunting – the Interface 1000 circuit boards contain more than 2000 components
connected by almost 5000 circuit nets.
The schematic/block diagram figures show:
the Interface 1000 in its potentiostatic control mode,
•
the circuits for signal generation,
•
the circuits for signal conditioning and A/D conversion,
•
the processors in the Interface 1000,
•
DC-DC power conversion.
•
If your instrument should malfunction, Gamry Instruments does not recommend user
repair. The information provided here is not sufficient for troubleshooting problems in
an Interface 1000. Contact Gamry Instruments at support@gamry.com or your local
Gamry representative if you have problems.
