The frequency accuracy of the unit is dependent on the
+16
volt reference supply, the

volt reference supply, the
32
volt peak-to-peak sweep ramp and the inverted
32
volt
sweep ramp. These four voltages must be precisely adjusted
in relation to each other t o maintain dial and display
accuracy.

The
+
and
-16
volt references can easily be set up accurately
as already described in paragraphs
5.5.4
and
5.5.5.
The
next problem is t o adjust the peak "positive and negative"
excursions of the sweep ramp,
M1H
pin
12,
t o within
0.1
volt o f the
+16
volt and
-16
volt references.
Since the entire
32
volt change from
-16
to
+16
volts i s
equivalent to a frequency change of
520 MHz,
the
0.1
volt
ramp accuracy would be equivalent t o a frequency error,
due to the program voltage, of
1.6 MHz,
which is allowable.
I t can be seen in the initial adjustment of the sweep ramp,
made in paragraph
5.5.6,
that the required 0.1 volt resolu-
tion when viewing the entire 32 volt sweep ramp is not ob-
tainable. Offsetting the scope position control t o view only
the positive or negative peak is not practical since the
M1H
CENT and SIZE adjustments vary both the positive and
negative peaks.
A practical approach is to use a scope
probe containing two back-to-back
12
volt zener diodes
in a zero supressing circuit. The schematic of the probe is
shown in Figure
5-14.

The

and -16 VQlt references can easily be set up accurately
as already described in paragraphs 5.5.4 and 5.5.5.
The
next prQblem is tQ adjust the peak "PQsitive and negative"
excursiQns .of the sweep ramp, M 1 H pin 12, tQ within 0.1
VQlt .of the + 16 VQlt and -16 VQlt references.
Since the entire 32 VQlt change frQm -16 tQ +16 VQlts is
equivalent tQ a frequency change .of 520 MHz, the 0.1 VQlt
ramp accuracy WQuid be equivalent tQ a frequency errQr,
due tQ the program vQltage, .of 1.6 MHz, which is allQwable.
It can be seen in the initial adjustment .of the sweep ramp,
made in paragraph 5.5.6, that the required 0.1 VQlt resolu-
tiQn when viewing the entire 32 volt sweep ramp is not .ob-
tainable. Offsetting the scQpe PQsitiQn cQntrQI tQ view .only
the PQsitive .or negative peak is nQt practical since the M 1 H
CENT and SIZE adjustments vary bQth the PQsitive and
negative peaks.
A practical apprQach is tQ use a SCQpe
prQbe cQntaining twQ back-tQ-back 12 VQlt zener diQdes
in a zero supressing circuit. The schematic .of the prQbe is
shown in Figure 5-14.
