‘The OS1000A general purpose oscilloscope isa solid state,
portable, dual trace oscilloscope suitable for a diverse
umber of laboratory and television applications. DC
mode bandwidth at the -3 dB points is DC to 20 MHz,
and AC mode bandwidth is 2 Hz to 20 MHz,
Sensitivity from $ mV/em to 20V/em is covered in 12
switched ranges with a common variable overlap control
effective on all ranges. The sensitivity can be increased to
ImV/em by connecting the Y1 and Y2 channels in
cascade.
Several display modes are incorporated: Y1 or Y2 single
trace; YI and Y2 dual trace with alternate sweep or 250
kHz chopped and automaticaly selected by the setting of
the timebase switch; X ~ Y in which the precision attenua-
tors in one ¥ channel are utilised to control the amplitude
Section 1
of the X signal. ¥; +2 (algebraic addition) or YY
facilities are also available,
‘Sweep speeds from Isfem to 0.5 us/em are covered in 20
switched ranges with a common variable overlap control
effective on all ranges. A X10 facility is incorporated so
that the sweep speed can be increased to 50 ns/em,
Switch selected trigger sources are, internal from either
‘one of the two Y channels, external via a front-panel
connector, and the AC supply. A facility for triggering
from television signals is also incorporated,
Level control may be effected manually or automatically.
In the absence of trigger signals in the ‘Auto’ mode, the
time-base switches to an automatic free run condition and
produces a bright line trace.Specification

SETTING UP Y CHANNELS
Using one of the coaxial input signal leads (PL43 or
PL44), connect a signal to the YI and Y2 input
socket.
For
(a) Direct connection of the input signal, set the
associated input slide switch to DC.
(b) Capacitive coupling of the input signal through
an internal O.1F 400V capacitor, set the
slide switch to AC.
NOTE When examining low amplitude AC signals
superimposed on a high DC level, the slide
switch should be set to AC and the sensitivity of
the Y amplifier increased as in (4).
To locate the baseline, set the slide switch to GND.
At this setting, the input signal is open circuit and
the input of the amplifier is switched to ground.
To adjust the sensitivity
(2) Set the VOLTS/CM switch toa suitable
setting
To minimise pick up at sensitive settings it is
essential to ensure that the ground lead
connection is near to the signal point.
(b) If necessary, adjust the uncalibrated concen-
tric VARIABLE control.
NOTE The range of the VARIABLE control is approxi-
Section 3
mately 3:1 so that its full adjustment overlaps
the adjacent lower sensitivity range. Except at
the CAL setting, the VARIABLE control is
uncalibrated. At the CAL setting. the calibration
corresponds to the setting of the VOLTS/CM
switch,
For vertical shift of the trace, adjust the Y shilt
controls (identified with vertical arrows).
If, under no signal conditions, trace movement is
detected when the setting of the VOLTS/CM switeh
is altered, reset the BAL preset control.
NOTE This control will only need adjustment at
infrequent intervals. Before adjusting the BAL,
preset control, however, ensure that the input
slide switch is set to the ground setting, and the
VARIABLE control on the VOLTS/CM switch is
set to CAL,

35 DUAL TRACE OPERATION
In the dual trace condition, the beam switching
isin operation and results in independent display of two
signals simultaneously. Two modes of beam switching ~
chopped and alternate — are used, and automatically
selected by the setting of the TIME/CM switch, At any
fast setting from 0.5 us to 0.5 ms, inclusive, the alternate
switching mode isin operation. At slow settings from
I ms to Is, inclusive and the EXT X. the chopped switching
mode is in operation.

(b) To algebraically subtract Y2 display from Y1
display pull the PULL TO INV Y2 knob. The
common mode rejection obtained can be

‘equalize channel sensitivities. This invert
facility of the Y2 channel can also be used
usefully with the YI and Y2 channels separa-
ted for such applications as the comparison of
two signals, one the inverse of the other.
3.6 TIMEBASE AND X AMPLIFIER,
‘The speed of the internal timebase (i.e. the time scale of
the horizontal axis) is determined by the setting of the
TIME/CM switch. As explained on Page (2), the setting of
the switch automatically determines which mode of beam
switching is used during dual trace operation. In addition
to selection of the speed of the internal timebase, the switch
has two functional settings, EXT X and X-Y. at which the
internal timebase is inoperative. The gain of the internal
X amplifier may be increased X10 by pulling out the
PULL X10 control on the VARIABLE TIME/CM
switch, This facility is available at all settings except
X-Y of the TIME/CM switch. The facility effectively
increases the sweep length from 10.cm to 100 em and,
thus allows close examination of any portion of the
trace. Any portion of the increased sweep length may be
selected for viewing on the display by adjusting the X
shift control.
‘When the TIME/CM switch is set to X-Y, the Y1 input
channel is switched to the X amplifier. Under this condi-
tion, an external signal applied to the X(¥1) socket is
routed through the input attenuators in the YI channel,
‘and the full range of the sensitivity of the attenuators may
be utilised to obtain a calibrated horizontal deflection.
Only single trace operation (¥2 channel) is possible.
Phase shift is not more than 30° up to SOOKHz and the
bandwidth is 1 MHz, In this mode, the Y1 shift control
is inoperative and X shift is effected by the X shifteontrol.
368 INTERNAL
1. Toadjust the time scale of the horizontal axis
(@) Set the TIME/CM switch to suitable setting.
(b) _Ifnecessary, adjust the concentric uncali-
brated VARIABLE control.
NOTE The range of the VARIABLE control is approxi-
mately 3:1, Except onthe CAL setting, the
VARIABLE control is uncalibrated. At the CAL
setting, the calibration corresponds to the
setting of the TIME/CM switch.
If close examination of any portion of the trace is
required, operate the PULL X10 control.
3. For horizontal shift of the trace, adjust the X shift
control (identified by horizontal arrow). The control
Section 3
has a dual speed function. Initial operation provides
coarse speed control, the return adjustment provides
fine speed control.
6b EXTERNAL
In this condition, the external signal is applied directly to
the internal X amplifier to produce uncalibrated (approxi-
‘mately 0.8Vem) horizontal deflection, Dual trace Y
operation may be used. Bandwidth is 2MHz.
1, Set the TIME/CM switch to EXT X
2. Connect the external signal to the EXT X socket,
3.7 XY MODE
1. Set the TIME/CM switch to X-Y.
2. Set the YI input slide switch to DC or AC.
3. Connect the external signal which is to be used
for X deflection to the X (YI) socket.
4, Operate the Y2 channel as for single trace operation
and use the YI VOLTS/CM switch to control the
X deflection.
38. TRIGGER
‘The timebase may be operated in a free run condition or
triggered from the positive or negative slope of a signal as
determined by the setting of the TRIG SELECT switch
The triggering sources selected by the TRIG SELECT
switch are as follows:
(@) The line input frequency derived from the
transformer in the power supply section.
(©) YI or ¥2 amplifiers (irrespective of which
beam is displayed).
(©) _Anexternal triggering source connected to the
EXT TRIG socket.
‘The LEVEL control, concentric with the TRIG SELECT
switch allows selection ofthe triggering point on the
trigger waveforn and hence determination of the start
of the horizontal trace. When the LEVEL control is set to
AUTO, the trigger circuit automatically biases itself to
the most sensitive trigger level condition, and AC couples.
trigger signal. Inthe absence of a trigger signal inthis
mode, the timebase will fee run and maintain a
displayed sweep at the selected speed.
‘The TRIG SELECT switch is used in conjunction with the
‘AC/ACE/DC and the NORM/TVL/TVF slide switches.
‘To trigger from conventional signals select NORM on the
NORM/TVL/TVF switch, The AC/ACF/DC switch selects
the trigger signal coupling.
‘AC. The AC coupled wideband mode used for most
common trigger signals.
ACF A filter is switched into circuit to reject low fre:
‘quencies. High frequency triggering may be effected
from complex waveforms such as a high frequency
signal with af ripple content.
DC The trigger signal is DC coupled enabling the time-
base to be triggered from very low frequency wave-
forms or consistently triggered from variable
rmark/space waveforms.Operation
To trigger from TV video signals select either TVL or
‘TVF. In the TV modes the AC/ACF/DC coupling options
are still retained but ACF should not be used in this mode.
TVL A television sync. separator is switched into
circuit so that the timebase can be triggered from
the line pulses of a complex TV signal.
‘TV The syne. separator remains in circuit but the line
pulses are smoothed. The T.B. triggers on the
remaining frame pulses.
NOTE:— Auto mode should not be used when
triggering from T.V. signals.
Triggering control is eifected as follows
1. Ifrequited, connect the external trigger signal to
the EXT TRIG socket
2, Set the ACJACF/DC and NORM/TVLITVF
switches to the required setting,
3. Set the TRIG SELECT switch to select the required
twigger signal.
4, Adjust the LEVEL control so that the trace starts
at the required point on the waveform.
5. Ifthe amplitude of the tigger signal is Tow, the
setting of the LEVEL control may become critica.
Under this condition its recommended that the
LEVEL control be set to AUTO.
6. Ifa triggered timebase condition isnot required, set
the TRIG SELECT switch to FREE RUN.
NOTE
If,in the Auto mode, frequency of the trigger is
less than 40 Hz or the amplitude is too low for
reliable triggering, the timebase automatically
changes to a free run condition. This condition
produces a bright line atthe selected sweep speed.
3.9 ADDITIONAL FACILITIES
3.93 _USE OF OPTIONAL PASSIVE PROBE
‘AX10 passive probe may be used to extend the voltage
range and increase the input impedance of the Y amplifiers.
‘The input resistance of a Y channel is | MQ, shunted by
approximately 28 pF. The effective capacity of the input
lead must be added to this and the resultant impedance
can often load the signal source. Therefore it is advisable
touse the 10 M2 X10 probe, part number 32824.
This reduces the input capacity and increases the input
resistance, at the expense of the sensitivity. The probe
contains a shunt RC network in series with the input
and forms an attenuator with the input RC of the Y
channel, To obtain a flat frequency response itis
necessary to adjust the capacitance of the probe to match
the input capacity ofthe channel as follows
Set the Y channel VOLTS/CM switch to 0.2V, and
the TIME/CM switch to 1 ms.
2. Connect the probe to the GATE 10V socket.
3. Unscrew the small knurled portion of the locking
ring near the BNC connector at the Y channel end
of the lead of the probe
Section 3
4. Set the larger portion (this is an adjustable capacitor)
for a level response with no overshoot or under-
shoot visible on the display.
3. Tighten the knurled locking ring against the
capacitor ring.
39b cALIv
‘This socket provides a DC coupled positive-going square
wave of IV * 2% amplitude at line frequency for calibra-
tion checks. The square wave has a source impedance of
1k and a rise time of approximately 20 ps.
39 GATE 10V
This socket provides a DC coupled positive-going square
pulse of 10V amplitude from 10 kS source impedance.
‘The duration of the pulse is coincident with the duration
of the timebase sweep and may be used to compensate a
passive probe,
394 RAMP
This socket on the rear panel provides a DC coupled
positive-going timing ramp of approximately 8V ampli-
tude generated by the timebase. Source impedance is
6.8 KO and the ramp may be used asa drive for external
frequency swept oscillators etc. 10 allow display of

3.91 INT. EXT
‘This switch on the rear panel must be set to
(a) EXT for the Z MOD mode of operation,
(b) INT when dual trace operation is required.
3.99 CAMERA
‘A camera may be fitted to the oscilloscope to record
waveforms, This facility is particularly useful for the slow
speed timebase settings. Suitable cameras utilising
Polaroid or 35 mm film may be obtained from D.
Shackman & Sons, or Telford Products Ltd. Adaptors
are available for attaching the camera to the oscilloscope.
‘Almost any other oscilloscope camera may be used with
the OS1000A but a suitable adaptor must be obtained
and should be discussed with the camera manufacturer.Circuit Description

4.2__ INPUT CIRCUIT OF Y AMPLIFIERS
NOTE The Attenuator, Input Amplifier and Pre-
amplifier in the YI channel are identical to
those in the Y2 channel. Accordingly, only the
Yi channel is described.
‘The input signal is applied to the front-panel socket SKA
(Fig. 5) and then to the 3-position slide switch SI. The
switch selects AC or DC input coupling by including or
bypassing C1 in the signal path. In the third position of the
switch, the input socket is disconnected and the input
of the attenuator is connected to ground through R2,
Each of the two sections of the YI Attenuator feed into
an input impedance of 1 M2. The attenuation of the first
section is determined by the potential divider action of
RIOL and RIO2. With the input impedance of the second
section in parallel with RLO2, the effective resistance ratio
is pIgh ie. +100.
Too KR i: * 100.
Similarly, R103 and R104 in the second section together
with the 1 MQ input impedance of the.Input Amplifier
introduce a+ 10 attenuation. Each section of the Attenua-
tor is frequency compensated by trimmer capacitors (see
Table 2) to equalise the high frequency attenuation ratio
and to ensure that the input capacity remains the same at
each section of the attenuator. [nthe frst section,
trimmer capacitor C101 controls the high frequency ratio.
The parallel combination of trimmer, C102, and its padder,
C108, determines the input capacitance. In the second
section, trimmer capacitor, C103, controls the high
frequency ratio. The parallel combination of trimmer,
C104, and its padder, C109, determines the input
capacitance. The way in which the attenuation of the two
sections is combined with changes in gain of the Y1
Preamplifier is explained on this page
‘The output of the second section is applied to the high
input impedance Y| Input Amplifier which has a signal
sain of unity. Input resistance is 1 MS2, and the input
capacitance is determined by adjustment of C105. The Y1
Input Amplifier contains two matched field effect
transistors, TRIOI and TR102. Diodes, D101, D102,
103 and D104, provide overload protection for TROL.
Transistor, TR102, is for thermal compensation. Preset
resistor, RS, in the TR102 stage is the BAL YI control
accessible from the front panel. This control is adjusted
to eliminate any trace movement when the setting of the
Y1 VOLTS/CM switch is altered. Any output from TR102
fs due to thermal changes, and this output together with
the signal output + thermal signal from TRIOI is applied

Full variation of RII ensures that any adjacent lower
sensitivity range can be overlapped. High trequency com.
pensation of RII iseffected by trimmer capacitor, C211,
and high frequency compensation of the switched gain
is effected by trimmer capacitors, C209, C210 (with
padder C243), and fixed capacitor, C241
The outputs ofthe gain switching long tail pair are applied
to emitter followers, TR20S and TR206, which act as
buffers to prevent loading of the gain switching circuit by
subsequent stages. The slider of potentiometer, RIS, in
the emitter circuit is fed with ~ 15V so that adjustment
of the potentiometer introduces a DC level shift forthe
YI signal. in Y2 channel, $1Sa and b inserted between the
bases of TR230, TR231 and the position control, acts as
a Channel Invert switch
‘Two outputs are taken from each emitter circuit. One pair
of outputs is fed via transistors. T228, TR229 and TR209,
‘TR210. The guin of TR209, TR210 is preset by R242,
determining the gain of the Y1 channel. High frequency
compensation is effected by trimmer, C217. The other
pair of outputs are applied to the Y1 Trigger Amplifier
‘TR215 and TR216,
4.3 CHANNEL SWITCH
‘The Channel Switch shown in Fig. 6 contains eight diodes,
D203 to D210. inclusive. The switch is supplied with the
output signals from the Y1 and Y2 Preamplifiers and is
‘operated by signals applied in antiphase to LI and L2
from the Channel Switch Bistable. Thus, when LI is
positive L2 is negative, and under this condition diodes,
D208 and D209, conduct but diodes, D203 and D205, are
cut off. Asa result, the balanced output of the YI Pre-
amplifier is applied via diodes, D204 and D206, to the
Buffer Amplifier. Because diodes, D208 and D209, are
conductingidiodes, D207 and D210, are cut off and any
output from the Y2 Preamplifier is disconnected from
the Buffer Amplifier. When the phase of the outputs
from the Channel Switch Bistable reverses, the electrical
condition of the Channel Switch changes and the output
signal from the Y2 Pre-amplifie is applied to the Buffer
Amplifier while the output signal of the YI Pre-amplifier
is disconnected. The overall result is that on dual trace
‘operation, the switched input to the Buffer Amplifier
consists of successive alternate periods of Y1 and Y2
signals. The switching rate is determined by the setting
of the TIME/CM switch as explained later.
4.4 BUFFER AMPLIFIER
‘The Buffer Amplifier shown in Fig. 6 consists of TR213
and TR214 operating as feedback stages. The output
resistance of this stage plus the 62 2 resistors, R251 and
R255, form the drive resistance for the balanced 150 ns
Delay’ Line connected between pin 24 and pin 25. In the
ADDmode the junction of R253 and R252 (pin 59)is
connected to ~ 15V through S144. This subtracts the
necessary bias current when YI and Y2 channel are added.

tai pai configuration fed with the antiphase input

TIME/CM switch. This X-Y facility allows an X input to
be connected via the Y1 input terminal onthe Front
Panel. Capacitor, C245. in the collector circuit of

46 Y2TRIGGER AMPLIFIER
The Y2 Trigger Amplifier shown in Fig. 6 contains
transistors, TR217 and TR218, which operate asa long
tal pair fed with antiphase input signals from the Y2
Preamplifier. The output from the collector of TR2I3 is
routed to the ¥2 OUT socket SKD on the front pane.
R262 is set to give a zero volt Y2 output with ¥2 off.
‘The output from the collector of TR217 is applied to the

47 TRIGGER SELECTOR SWITCH
‘The trigger selector switch has 9 settings as follows:
LINE He of —ve
7 ‘ve or ~ve
¥2
EXT
FREE RUN
On wafer, SSAB, four positions corresponding to the +ve
and —ve functions of Y1 and Y2 are utilised to allow a
common amplifier for YI and Y2 signals to be switched
into circuit. This amplifier, shown in Fig. 6, contains
transistor, TR219, which operates in a common emitter
configuration with negative feedback. The output of the
common amplifier is connected via D229 to water, AF, of
SS together with a supply line frequency derived from a
winding on power supply transformer, TI, and an
external trigger connection applied from the front-pane!
EXT X socket SKC via the RC network of R15 and C7.
‘The network has two functions: it attenuates the input
level of the external trigger signal and, in conjunction with
D212, protects TR220. Two other wafers, BF and BB of
5 are integral with the operation of the Trigger Amplifier
and are discussed in paragraph 4.8.
‘The wiper of SSAF connects the selected trigger source to
switch, $7, the AC-ACF-DC switch on the front pang
the AC setting of the switch, the trigger signal is capaci
tively coupled via C230 to the base of emitter follower,
TR220. At the ACF setting, however, C9 and R276
function as an RC Trigger Coupling filter which attenuates
low frequencies. In this way, high frequency pulses can be
separated from a composite signal for triggering purposes.Circuit Description
‘When DC is selected by $7, the trigger signal is directly
coupled to enable triggering to take place from very low
frequency signals. D212 and zener diode, D211, protect
‘TR220 against excessive input drive. in the Trigger mode,
the emitter of TR 220 is directly coupled through emitter
follower, TR227, and the network formed by D222,
D225 and D221, to the Trigger Amplifier. S6ais closed
cuasing D222 to conduct and D225 to develop its zener
voltage. The cathode of D221 is thus sitting at approxi-
mately — 3.9V and conducts giving a D.C. path.
In the AUTOmode, Sé6a is open, D225 conducts and D222
develops its zener voltage. With its cathode at approxi-
mately + 3.9V. D221 is reversed biased. The circuit is
now A.C. coupled through C229.
4.8 TRIGGER AMPLIFIER
‘The Trigger Amplifier shown in Fig. 6 contains transistors,
‘TR222 and TR223, which operate as along tal pair.
‘The base of TR222 is connected to switch wafer, SSBF,
and the base of TR223 is connected to switch wafer, $$ BB.
Both switch wafers form part of the front-panel TRIG
SELECT switch, Examination of the circuit shows that
when the switch is set at any 4ve setting, the signal is
applied to the base of TR223, and the base of TR222
is AC coupled to ground via C10. Conversely, when the
switch is set at any —ve setting, the signal is applied to the
base of TR222, and the base of TR223 is AC coupled to
ground via C10. When the LEVEL control isin use, Séa is
closed and the centre of the potentiometer sits at about
=3.9V RIT can thus be used to trigger the trace on any
point of the incoming waveform. A single ended output is
taken from the collector of TR223 and applied via diode,
D215, to the junction of C236 and R295.
4.9 TELEVISION SYNC, SEPARATOR
AA single ended output is taken from the collector of
‘TR222 and fed toa Television Sync. Separator circuit
containing transistor, TR227, shown on Fig. 6. The
circuit is operative only when S13 is set to TVL or TVF
C234 and the base-emitter junction of TR221 selects TV
syne. pulses from complex video waveforms even though
the picture information may be varying. In the TVL
position, amplified sync, pulses are passed from the
collector ofthis transistor through D215 to the Schmitt
trigger. When TVE is selected, line pulses are integrated
‘out by the action of C233 and the R282/R283 network.
‘The remaining frame pulses are normally passed on to the
Schmitt trigger.
4.10 SCHMITT TRIGGER
‘The signal applied to the junction of C236 and R295 may
be either capacitively coupled (via C236) or DC routed
(via R295, S6B and R296) to emitter follower, TR224,
shown in Fig. 6. This transistor buffers the input to
‘TR225 which with TR226 operates in a Schmitt trigger
configuration. Switch, S6, which determines the signal
path is ganged to R17, the LEVEL control concentric
with the front-panel TRIG SELECT switch, When R17 is
set fully counter clockwise to AUTO, switch, SOB, is
Section 4
‘open and the output of the Trigger Amplifier is capaci-
tively coupled to TR224. In the AUTO POSITION, $6 is,
‘open and the wiper of R17 is at zero volts. As described
in 4.7, the trigger signal i A.C. coupled to TR222 base.
With both input bases at zero volts, TR222 and TR223
form a roughly balanced long-taled pair amplifier which
passes the trigger signal to the Schmitt trigger at an
Increased level.
In this condition with no DC level connected from the
‘Trigger Amplifier, the Schmitt Trigger automatically
goes into an astable condition which ensures that itis
biased to its most sensitive trigger point.
When R17 is turned clock-wise ftom AUTO, switch, $6,
is closed and the output of the Trigger Amplifier is DC
routed to TR224. Adjustment of R17 determines the DC
level of the base of TR222 or the base of TR223 and in
turn, the level of the output and — because of the output
is DC routed to TR224 — the time of triggering of the
Schmitt. Thus R17 can be adjusted to trigger the trace at
any point on the waveform. The function of the Schmitt
‘Trigger is to produce a constant amplitude output pulse
