signals.
The
amplified
input
signal
is
then
applied
through
the
differential
amplifier
(Q102
and

HIGH
FREQUENCY
AMPLIFIER.
4-12,
Trimmer
capacitors
C301,
C303
and
C305
can
be
adjusted
to
provide
the
desired
frequency
response
characteristics
for
the
instrument.
Ac
input
signals
from
the
attenuator
are
applied
through
C101
to
the
high
frequency
amplifier
Q101.
The
signal
is
amplified
by
9101
and
coupled
through
C104
to
the
base
circuit
of
Q102.
The
RC
networks,
C105,
R112,
C106
and
R114
are
used
to
improve
the
frequency
response
characteristics
ofthe
amplifier
Q102.
The
bias
volt-
age
of
Q101
is
determined
by
resistive
divider
R103
and
R104.
Ac
feedback
from
power
amplifiers
(Q1,
Q2,
Q3,
and
Q4)
is
applied
through
R148
to
provide
ac
gain
adjust
for
Q101,
4-13.
LOW
FREQUENCY
AMPLIFIER.
4-14.
When
the
AMPLIFIER/SUPPLY
selector
is
in
the
SUPPLY
position,
+7
and
-7
volts
are
supplied
from
an
internal
reference,
through
resistive
dividers,
to
the
amplifier
input.
Each
SUPPLY
position
(+1,
+2,
+4,
+10
and
+20)
permits
setting
the
de
output
voltage
to
any
+
value
within
the
range
selected.
The
low
frequency
amplifier
circuit
(Q108,
Q109
and
Q110)
am-
plifies
the
de
and
low
frequency
input
signal
and
drives
Q103.
The
bias
voltage
for
the
low
frequency
amplifier
is
controlled
by
R132
and
R133
and
the
ZERO
control
R5.
Transistor
Q110
is
a
current
source
for
the
dif-
ferential
amplifiers
Q108
and
Q109.
Inductors
1101
and
L102
control
the
frequency
response
of
the
low
frequency
amplifier
(at
higher
frequencies)
by
causing
degeneration
of
Q108
and
Q109
emitters.
High
fre-
quencies
present
at
Q109
collector
are
shorted
to
ground
by
C109.
Low
frequency
stabilization
and
over-
allamplifier
gain
(betweende
and
50
KHz)are
provided
by
applying
de
feedback
from
the
OUTPUT
to
Q109
base.
The
ZERO
potentiometer
R5
provides
an
adjust-
ment
to
compensate
for
ас
drift
in
the
instrument.
Varying
R5
changes
the
voltage
at
Q109
base,
thereby
changing
the
output
level
of
the
low
frequency
ampli-
fier,
4-15.
DIFFERENTIAL
AMPLIFIER.
4-16,
Differential
amplifiers
Q102
and
Q103
provide
an
output
proportional
to
the
input
signals
from
the
high
frequency
amplifier
9101
and
the
low
frequency
amplifier
circuit
(Q109
and
Q110).
The
high
fre-
quency
ac
signals
are
coupled
to
Q102
through
C104;
the
de
and
low
frequency
signals
from
the
low
fre-
quency
amplifier
are
direct-coupled
to
differential
amplifier
Q103.
Capacitor
C108
bypasses
any
high
frequency
ac
from
the
low
frequency
amplifier
to

ground.
C109
bypasses
any
high
frequency
signals
present
at
the
base
of
Q103.
Ac
feedback
from
Q105
collector
circuit
is
applied
through
C115
to
the
base
circuit
of
Q102
for
high
frequency
gain
stabilization.
4-17.
VOLTAGE
AMPLIFIER.
4-18,
The
voltage
amplifier
Q104
supplies
the
majority
of
the
voltage
gain
for
the
instrument.
Degeneration
at
low
frequencies
is
provided
by
R127
in
the
Q104
emitter
circuit;
C116
provides
added
phase
stability
at
high
frequencies.
Current
through
R125
provides
the
bias
current
for
Q105.
Breakdown
diode
CR104
establishes
the
proper
voltage
at
Q104
collector
and
maintains
a
de
signal
path
from
Q104
Collector
to
Q105
base.
4-20.
Driver
amplifier
Q105
is
driven
by
current
am-
plifier
Q104and
supplies
the
signal
to
the
power
out-
put
amplifiers.
Transistors
Q108
and
Q107
are
for-
ward
biased
by
diodes
CR108
through
CR112and
under
no~signal
condition
are
conducting
slightly
to
reduce
cross-over
distortion
in
the
output
signal.

Transistors
Q1
through
Q4
provide
а
comple-
mentary
symmetry
output.
Qİ
and
Q2,
driven
by
emitter
follower
Q106,
providea
low

4-23,
EXTERNAL
LOAD
PROTECTION.
4-24.
The
external
load
connected
to
the
467A
is
pro-
tected
during
turn-onand
turn-off,
from
current
surges
and
voltage
transients,
by
relay
KI.
The
relay
con-
tacts
open
the
circuit
tothe
OUTPUT
connectors
when
the
relay
is
de-energized.
When
the
instrument
is
turned
ON,
Ki
remains
de-energized
for
about
300
milliseconds.
This
delay
permits
the
instrument
to
stabilize
before
the
output
is
connected
to
the
load.
The
300
millisecond
delay
is
caused
by
the
RC
time
constant
of
C110
and
R161.
When
the
instrument
is
turned
off,
the
relay
quickly
de-energizes
and
opens
the
circuit
to
the
OUTPUT
connector.

POWER
SUPPLY
CIRCUIT
DESCRIPTION.
4-26.
The
467A
primary
power
supply
consists
of
two
regulated
power
supplies
¢34
and
+34
volts),
and
five
reference
supplies
(+7,
-7,
+15,
-15
and
+30
volts).
Either
115
or
230
volts
ac
is
connected
to
the
instru-
ment
through
switch
51
and
fuse
Fi
to
Т1
primary.
Switch
52
(slide
switch
on
rear
panel)
connects
Т1
primary
windings
in
series
for
230
voit
operation,
or
in
parallel
for
115
volt
operation.
The
LINE
ON
lamp
DSi
glows
when
primary
power
is
applied
tothe
instru-
ment.
4-27.
MINUS
34
VOLT
SUPPLY.
4-28.
Transistor
Q112
in
conjunction
with
R156,
CR129,
and
CR130
provide
a
constant
current
source
which
provides
base
drive
for
Q5
and
Q6.
Q112
also
provides
current
to
keep
СВ131,
CR132,
CRi33,
and
CR135
conducting.
R2
and
Q5
share
the
load
current
to
reduce
the
dissipation
іп
Q6.
For
small
load
currents
Q5
is
turned
off
and
resistor
R2
supplies
the
current.
As
the
load
current
increases,the
base
of
Q5
is
forward
biased
and
Q5
conducts,
sharing
the
current,
As
the
load
current
is
increased
further,
CR134
is
forward
biased
at
a
current
level
determined
by
R159.
This
will
reduce
the
current
in
СВ135
to
zero
causing
the
supply
voitage
to
go
to
zero
also,
4-29.
PLUS
34
VOLT
SUPPLY.
4-30.
The
+34
volt
supply
provides
regulated
voltage
to
the
power
amplifier
circuits.
Breakdown
diode
CR143
establishes
the
reference
at
the
base
of
Q8.
Potentiometer
R163
adjusts
the
current
limit
setting
for
the
+34
volt
supply.
4-31.
REFERENCE
SUPPLY.
4-32.
The
diode
regulated
reference
supply
(refer
to
Figure
5-14)provides
+7,
-7,
+15
and
-15
voltages.
Capacitors
C126
and
C128
filter
the
ac
voltages.
Breakdown
diodes
CR146
and
CR147
maintain
a
+15
reference
voltage
at
the
junction
of
R149
and
R150.
The
series
arrangement
of
diodes
CR120
and
СВ121
(forward
biased
diodes)
and
СВ122
and
CR123
(re-
verse
biased
diodes)
compensates
for
temperature
and
provides
a
constant
-15
reference
voltage
at
the
junction
of
В151
апа
R152.
The
plus
and
minus
7
volt
reference
voltages
are
obtained
in
the
same
manner
as
the
plus
and
minus
15
reference
voltages.
Series
regulator
Q111
provides
regulated
+30
volts
to
the
positive
side
of
the
reference
supply.
