The “A” gain position provides an overall gain of 31.5 dB and is compatible with other Arcam amplifiers. The “B” setting is for use in THX compliant systems and the low gain “C” position can be used to lower the overall system noise level in installations where the speakers are very close to the listener.

Arcam P-1000 Amplifier Board functions and operation In the amplifier portion of the board, Q2 acts as a level shifter and drives the class A transistor Q13. The voltage source for the class A stage is from Q14 and is regulated by Z1.

Arcam P-1000 Amplifier Board functions and operation With the amplifier operating at low output levels (<20 W) only the +/-20V low voltage rails are used. As the output requirements increase, the signal from U2-A also COMM increases and the peak value of this signal is compared to the low rail reference voltage at the comparators U4-A and U5-B.

P-1000 Display Board functions and operation. The P-1000 display functions are divided into two separate blocks, power on/off and channel status indications. The power on/off LED indicators are driven by the Standby Power supply on the main board and are active any time the P-1000 is connected to the AC mains supply and the rear panel power switch is on.

Arcam P-1000 Main Board functions and operation In addition to the high current supply voltages for the seven amplifier channels, the Main board also contains the circuitry for power on/off control, DC fault protection, the standby housekeeping power and other control circuits as well as the bussing interconnections to all channels.

Arcam P-1000 Main Board functions and operation To perform these functions an AC mains sine wave from the standby transformer secondary is applied to the input of U2-D. This signal is then half wave LV_AC_IN rectified and the output of gate U2-D is a square wave clock signal to the CLK input of U-1B.
