5.6 Oscillator Module
The Oscillator Module is designated A1. The module consists of one printed circuit
assembly. This assembly is interconnected to the Mother Board.
The Oscillator Module has the circuits to perform the following operations:
1. Generates the output voltage sinewave.
2. Interprets the Voltage, Frequency and Current limit commands from the front panel and
RS232/GRIB Board.
3. Attenuates the oscillator drive signal to operate in a constant current mode.
4. Measures the output voltage, current, peak current and power.
5. Performs voltage dropouts at a designated phase angle.
5.7 IEEE 488/ RS232 Interface [Option]
The 2001RP can optionally be outfitted with a combined RS232C and IEEE 488 interface
board. This board assembly has opto-couplers for interface isolation.
The GPIB address for the AC source is selected by a DIP switch on the rear panel. Only one
interface can be active at any given time and must be selected using DIP switch position 6.
(Refer to Figure 8-2).
