Replaceable parts

This manual refers to any field-replaceable assembly or mechanical part specifically by its name or generically as a replaceable part. In general, a replaceable part is any circuit board or assembly, (such as the hard disk drive), or a mechanical part, (such as the I/O port connectors), that is listed in the replaceable parts list that can be replaced in the field. (See Parts ordering information.)

Where to find operating information

For information on installing, operating, and networking the instrument, refer to the online help or user manual that was provided with your oscilloscope. You can also find the manual at www.tek.com/manuals, by searching for your product.

Theory of operation

This chapter describes the electrical operation of the oscilloscope to the module level. The block diagram shows the oscilloscope module interconnections.

Block diagram

Power supply

The Power Supply board converts AC line voltage to +12 V to power for all internal circuits.

Carrier interface assembly

The Carrier interface assembly contains the following functions:

Processor system
The processor system contains a microprocessor that controls the entire instrument. The processor system also contains the solid state drive for the operating system, system RAM, and interfaces to I/O ports and the acquisition system.
Rear panel I/O ports
The Carrier interface assembly contains USB ports, an Ethernet port (LAN), a VGA Video port, a DVI Video port, a DisplayPort Video port, the USB-TMC port, an AUX OUT BNC connector, an EXT REF IN BNC connector, and the AFG Out generator BNC connector.
Power converter
The Carrier interface assembly converts the +12 V power to all voltages used for the analog and digital circuitry throughout the system. Standby power is used to keep portions of the Carrier interface assembly and Main board powered at all times that AC power is connected to the instrument.
Other functions
The Carrier interface assembly also houses the AFG generator, USB-TMC controller and interfaces to the Power supply and various cooling fans. The Carrier interface assembly also provides the interface to the optional Windows drive.

Main board and front-end board

The Main and Analog boards contain the following functions:

Acquisition system
The Acquisition system begins with the analog signal path and ends with a digitized signal in memory. The signal enters a channel input, and then passes through an attenuator and preamplifier. The analog signal from each preamplifier goes through a digitizer, and then into acquisition memory. The analog signal from each preamplifier is also distributed to a trigger circuit.
Front-end
All of the analog and digital inputs are routed to the Front-end board. The analog channels are amplified and attenuated through the front-end circuitry, and are output to the Main board. The digital channels simply pass through the front-end board to the Main board. The front-end board has a controller that is used as an I/O controller for the front-end board.
Power converter
The Main board converts the +12 V power to some of the other voltages used for the analog and digital circuitry throughout the system. This is in addition to the power conversion provided by the Processor assembly.

Front panel and display

The Front Panel board contains digital logic that reads the front-panel buttons and controls and sends this information to the processor system on the Processor assembly. The Front Panel board also generates the probe compensation output signal, provides USB ports on the front panel and houses the main power switch. The front panel routes the digital front-end signals from the probe directly to the front-end board. The front panel also provides the video interface to the internal HD display.

Adjustment procedures

Adjustment and calibration can be performed only by a Tektronix Service Center. See Contacting Tektronix, following the title page in this manual, for information on contacting Tektronix Service Support.

Adjustment interval

The voltage and timing references inside the instrument are very stable over time and do not need routine adjustment.

If the instrument fails the performance tests in the Specifications and Performance Verification manual, adjustment may be required. To download the 6 Series MSO Specification and Performance Verification manual (Tektronix part number 077-1461-XX), go to http://www.tek.com/product-support, enter the manual part number (with no dashes) in the field, click GO, and then select the Specification and Performance Verification document to download.

If your organization requires periodic calibration, a general rule is to verify performance and make adjustments (only if needed) every 2000 hours of operation or once a year if the instrument is used infrequently.

Adjustment after repair

After removal and replacement of any module, you must perform the Performance Verification procedures, found in the Specifications and Performance Verification manual (Tektronix part number 077-1461-XX), available to download from the Tektronix web site (www.tek.com/product-support).

Troubleshoot the power supply

Use this procedure to determine if the power supply is defective and needs replaced.

Before you begin

Prerequisites:
  • To prevent electrostatic damage to components whenever you work on the instrument, wear properly-grounded electrostatic prevention wrist and foot straps, and work in a tested antistatic environment on an antistatic mat.
  • Remove rear chassis assembly
  • Remove the baffle bracket

Procedure

  1. Connect the power cord to the AC connector on the back of the rear chassis.
  2. Measure for +12 V DC between chassis and pin 10 of J3203 (large connector). If there is +12 VDC at pin 10, go to step 3. If you do not measure +12 VDC at Pin 10 of J3203 connected to the circuit board:


    1. Disconnect the AC power cord.
    2. Disconnect J3203 from the circuit board.
    3. Connect the AC power cord.
    4. Measure for +12 V DC between pin 10 (+12 VDC) and pin 18 (ground) on the disconnected cable.
      If there is no +12 VDC value on pin 10, carefully check for 115 V AC at the connectors of the AC line filter. If there is AC at the line filter, replace the power supply module or reassemble and return the instrument to a Tektronix Service Center for repair.
      WARNING:Be careful when measuring the AC line voltage to avoid injury to yourself or damage to the instrument.
  3. If there is +12 V DC at pin 10 of the disconnected J3203 cable, do the following:
    1. Disconnect the AC power cord.
    2. Reconnect J3203 to the circuit board.
    3. Connect the AC power cord.
    4. Insert for one (1) second and then remove a 0.1-inch-spaced shorting jumper between pins 9 and 10 of the Service connecter pins on the edge of the circuit board (see following image). Wait five (5)seconds as the fans turn on and the power supply powers on.


    5. Measure for +12 V DC between chassis (ground) and pins 1 through 4 and pins 11 through 15 on J3203.
      If all these pins have +12 VDC present, then the power supply is working correctly. Disconnect the AC power cord, reassemble the instrument, and return the instrument to a Tektronix Service Center for repair.
