INSTRUMENT SERIAL NUMBERS

Each instrument has a serial number on a panel insert, tag,

or stamped on the chassis . The first number or letter
designates the country of manufacture. The last five digits
of the serial number are assigned sequentially and are
unique to each instrument . Those manufactured in the
United States have six unique digits . The country of
manufacture is identified as follows :

TROUBLESHOOTING
The following information is provided to help
troubleshoot the AM 503. Information contained in other
sections of this manual should be used along with the
following information to aid in locating a defective compo-
nent . An understanding of the circuit operation is very
helpful in locating troubles, particularly where integrated
circuits are used .

Control Settings
Incorrect control settings can indicate a trouble that
does not exist . If there is any question about the correct
function or operation of any control, see the Operating

Selectable-Gain Amplifier

The selectable-gain amplifier consists of U350, gain

control R346, and associated components . Power Supply

The ac voltages from the power module (edge connec-

tor pins 13A, 13B, 1A, and 1B) are rectified by bridge
When P346 is at ground potential (through pin B of
rectifiers CR402 and CR406 . The rectifier output is filtered

Selectable-Bandwidth Amplifier

This amplifier consists of U370 and associated com-

ponents, including HF Comp (R363) ; LF Comp (R364) ; The output voltage of the -16 V supply is adjusted by
bandwidth selecting switch S370 ; and networks R370- the Volts control (R405) . The Balance control (R415) sets
R372, R373-R374 . the +16 V supply output to match the -16 V supply .

With the BANDWIDTH switch in the 5 MHz position, R403 and R407 are the load-current-sensing resistors .
U370 output is from pins 6 and 8, through a low-pass filter They set the bias on the series-pass transistors (located in
network L380-L383, C380-C383, to 0390 . the power module) . The output voltage is sensed at the
sense input (U410, pins 4 and 11) . This sense voltage
determines the current in R403 and R407 . For example, if

DIAGRAMS AND CIRCUIT BOARD ILLUSTRATIONS

Symbols and Reference Designators
Electrical components shown on the diagrams are in the following units unless noted otherwise :

Capacitors = Values one or greater are in picofarads (pF) .

Values less than one are in microfarads (pF) .
Resistors = Ohms (SZ) .
Graphic symbols and class designation letters are based on ANSI Standard Y32 .2-1975 .
Logic symbology is based on ANSI Y32 .14-1973 in terms of positive logic . Logic symbols depict the logic
function performed and may differ from the manufacturer's data .
The overline on a signal name indicates that the signal performs its intended function when it goes to the low state .
Abbreviations are based on ANSI Y1 .1-1972 .
Other ANSI standards that are used in the preparation of diagrams by Tektronix, Inc . are :

Y14 .15,1966 Drafting Practices .

Y14 .2, 1973 Line Conventions and Lettering .
Y10 .5,1968 Letter Symbols for Quantities Used in Electrical Science and
Electrical Engineering .

The following prefix letters are used as reference designators to identify components or assemblies on the diagrams .
A Assembly, separable or repairable H Heat dissipating device (heat sink, S Switch or contactor
(circuit board, etc) heat radiator, etc) T Transformer
AT Attenuator, fixed or variable HR Heater TC Thermocouple
B Motor HY Hybrid circuit TP Test point
BT Battery J Connector, stationary portion u Assembly, inseparable or non-repairable
C Capacitor, fixed or variable K Relay (integrated circuit, etc .)
CB Circuit breaker L Inductor, fixed or variable V Electron tube
CR Diode, signal or rectifier M Meter VR Voltage regulator (zener diode, etc.)
DL Delay line P Connector, movable portion W Wirestrap or cable
DS Indicating device (lamp) O Transistor or silicon-controlled Y Crystal
E Spark Gap, Ferrite bead rectifier Z Phase shifter
F Fuse R Resistor, fixed or variable
FL Filter FIT Thermistor
Plug to E .C. Board

 MANUAL CHANGE INFORMATION
At Tektronix, we continually strive to keep up with latest electronic developments
by adding circuit and component improvements to our instruments as soon as they
are developed and tested .

Sometimes, due to printing and shipping requirements, we can't get these

changes immediately into printed manuals . Hence, your manual may contain new
change information on following pages .

A single change may affect several sections . Since the change information sheets
are carried in the manual until all changes are permanently entered, some
duplication may occur. If no such change pages appear following this page, your
manual is correct as printed.

Adjustment Procedure Changes

Replace Fig. 3-3, Fig. 3-4, and steps d through h of part 3, "Adjust Compensation", with the new steps d
through i, beginning on page 3-4, as follows:

Fig. 3-3. (lain and compensation adjustment locations.

d. Examine-the long term waveform .

e. Adjust-R366 for optimum compensation .

f. Set the monitor oscilloscope TIME/DIV to 20 ns.

 .. . . .. .. .. . . .. .. .. ..
g. Examine-the front corner of the waveform for
correct compensation .

h. Adjust-R364, R345, C363, and R363 for optimum

compensation . Refer to Fig. 3-4 for example.

w -- Lia -~ W_ I NOTE
If compensation adjustments are made, it is neces-
sary to re-check the bandwidths of the instrument.
NEENEEMENE Refer to the RISE TIMEIBANDWIDTH procedure in
Section 2, Performance Check.
