The Block diagram of the apparatus is shown as Figure 1

HTC Instrument FG-2002 Get Function Generator-FIG2

  1. constant current source control circuit,
    This part of the circuit is shown as Figure 2, positive Vbe of transistor is offset due to the closed-loop of integrated circuits, if it is ignored as block offset voltage IUP=IDOWN=VC/R

  2. Square-wave generator,
    This is a constant current source controlled with triangular wave – square- wave generator, in Figure 3. Diode consisted circuit control capacitor C charging and discharging, using high-speed comparator to control the on and off of the diode switches (V105-V111). When the comparator B is high, V107 and V109 conduct, V105 and V111 cut-off, constant current source doing positive charge to integral capacitance C, when the comparator B is low, V105 and V111 conduct,V107 and V109 cut-off, constant current source doing positive discharge to integral capacitance C .So as the cycle, the output of a point is the triangle wave, the output of B points is the square wave. While wave, square wave change, you could also change the integral capacitance to change the frequency of equipment.

  1. A (Power Amplifiers)
    In order to guarantee a very high slew rate and good stability, power amplifier circuit used as the dual-channel, the entire amplifier circuit has the inverted phase features.

  1. Digital frequency meter
    The circuit is made up of broadband amplifier, square-wave shaper, microcontroller, LED display, etc. When the frequency is working at the “External measurement” state, the external signal was sent to counter to count after amplifying and regulation, finally displayed on the LED digital tube. While internal measurement, the signal entered into the counter directly, counting the time of gates, LED tube decimal point location and Hz or KHz are determined by the CPU

  1. Power
    This instrument use three groups of±23,±17,±5 powers。 The ±17 is the main regulation power supply; ±5 is obtained by three-regulator integrated circuits 7805 for the use of frequency, ±23 used as power amplifier.

Structural Features

The instrument adopts the all-metal chassis with solid structure, pasted plastic panels, new beautiful appearance。And it is small with light weight, the majority components(Including the key switch) of the circuit are installed on a printed circuit board。 All the adjustment components are placed on the apparent position. When the equipment needs to be repaired, you can remove the two fastening screws of the back plate, to unload the upper and lower plate.

  19. Frequency adjust slight: Coordinate with ” (8 )” ,used to adjust smaller frequency.

  20. Overflow display: When frequency is overflow,the instrument display。

Maintenance and calibration

The apparatus could work continuously under the required conditions, but i order to guarantee good performance, we proposed to correct every three months. The order of correction is as follows:

  1. Adjustment of sine wave distortion
    Symmetry, the DC bias and modulation control switch are not pulled out, placed the frequency multiplier to “1K”, the frequency display as 5Khz or 2KHz, slowly adjust the potentiometer RP105, RP112, RP113 so that the distortion is minimum, repeat the above work several times ,sometimes the whole band
    (100Hz-100KHz) is less than 1% distortion

  2. Square-wave
    Operating frequency to 1MHz, correct C174 so that the square-wave response is at the best moment

  3. Frequency accuracy adjustment
    Set the frequency meter as “EXT” state; connect the standard signal source 20MHz output to external counter, adjust C214 to display as 20000.0 KHz.

  4. Frequency sensitivity adjustment
    The sine-wave signal which the output range of signal source is 100mVrms and frequency is 20MHz is connected to external counter, the gate time is set to0.01s; adjust RP115 to display as 20000.0 KHz

Trouble clearing

Trouble clearing should be doing under the condition of you are familiar with the working principle and circuit. You should inspect the circuit step by step as the following order: the regulated power supply – Triangle wave – square wave generator – sine wave circuit – power amplifier – frequency count circuit – the display part of frequency meter. You should replace the integrated circuit or other components while founding which part is in trouble.
