  • Front
  • Back
accumulation of positive or negative charges on insulators or conductors
static electricity
two types of esd failures

intermittent and catastrophic



the simple theory of esd control
no charge = no discharge
esd occurs in switches, mishandling components, and between what materials
materials with different potentials
most important step taken for controlling esd

putting on an antistatic wrist strap
provides connection to wearers skin and ground

antistatic wrist strap

general material wrist straps are made of

conductive material

resistor value that is in series with the strap to ground


1 megohm



how is an antistatic wrist band worn

in contact with wearers skin

why do antistatic wrist straps have a quick release mechanism

for emergencies

3 common wrist strap cuffs

elastic adjustable, metal expansion, hook and loop

if a wrist strap fails while testing what should you do

replace the faulty ground or replace strap

when should you not use a wrist strap

0.3V

Silicon diode voltage

0.7V

what a multimeter sends through a diode to measure votage drop

A current

obvious thing to check for before troubleshooting

Blown fuses, clean contacts, good connections

troubleshooting method that has technical manuals for proceedures to follow particular symptoms

Proceedural

what is halfsplitting

starting troubleshooting proceedures within the middle of the circuit

todays circuits are contained on

circuit boards

Good fuse


((-------------))




Bad fuse

((--- ---))

volts/div knob adjust what on an o-scope

amount of voltage required to deflect the beam distance for amplitude

control on o-scope that determines the period time

time/division knob

triggering knobs on o-scope are to

stabilize the display

first step taken while conducting measurements on high voltage equiptment

de-energize the equiptment

1 to 1 probes display

voltage equal to the voltage of the circuit being tested

why do you let the scope warm up

to stabilize the internal circuits

overcompensated

turn clockwise

undercompensated

turn counterclockwise
measurements an oscopes used for

time, phase, amplitude, and other waveform charecteristics
measurements of amplitude is measured

Vertically

when can a faulty circuit card be swapped out

when a fault is officially found because its expensive to replace

ideal moisture setting for esd

medium

three things done everytime prior to using a wrist strap

clean, inspect, test

ohms law

E=R x I
when is the no hand rule applied

anytime you are touching a circuit
what regenerates the voltage of the output signal on the RF signal generator

Attenuator

two ways a power meter takes measurements

direct and indirect

power meter connected directly between the transmitter output and the load

direct

2 types of RF power that can be measured by a power meter

forward and reverse

direction the arrow on the attenuator needs to point when measuring incident and reflected power

towards the load

2 bridge circuits used with indirect power measurements
detection bridge and compensating/metering bridge
pulse parameters the pulse generator provides full control over

timing, levels, and edges

power meters give automatic and manual measurements of

radio freq and microwave power levels

must be verified with the fuse of the power meter before powering it on

rating of the fuse
