    Remember, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”. THEORY OF OPERATION A block diagram of the M-2665K is shown in Figure 1. Operation centers around a custom LSI chip. This IC contains a dual slope A/D converter display latches decoder and the display driver.
  • Page 3 A/D CONVERTER A simplified circuit diagram of the analog portion of the A/D converter is shown in Figure 2. Each of the switches shown represent analog gates which are operated by the digital section of the A/D converter. Basic timing for switch operation is keyed by an external oscillator.

  • Page 8: Safety Procedures

    CONSTRUCTION Introduction The most important factor in assembling your M-2665 Digital Multimeter Kit is good soldering techniques. Using the proper soldering iron is of prime importance. A small pencil type soldering iron of 25 - 40 watts is recommended. The tip of the iron must be kept clean at all times and well tinned.
  • Page 9 IDENTIFYING CAPACITOR VALUES Capacitors will be identified by their capacitance value in pF (picofarads), nF (nanofarads), or mF (microfarads). Most capacitors will have their actual value printed on them. Some capacitors may have their value printed in the following manner. The maximum operating voltage may also be printed on the capacitor. Second Digit Multiplier 103K...
  • Page 10 RESISTOR READING EXERCISE Before starting assembly of your digital multimeter project, you should be thoroughly familiar with the 5 band color code system. Many of the resistor values will be identified by color bands and it is easy to mistake their value if you read the colors (1) yellow-black-black-black-brown (3) brown-red-violet-red-brown (5) brown-black-black-black-brown...
