Self Calibration
The self calibration routine lets you quickly optimize the oscilloscope signal path
for maximum measurement accuracy. You can run the routine at anytime but you
should always run the routine if the ambient temperature changes by 5_ C or
more.
To compensate the signal path, disconnect any probes or cables from the channel
input connectors. Then, press the UTILITY button and select Do Self Cal to
confirm that you are ready to proceed.
Probe Safety
A guard around the probe body provides a finger barrier for protection from
electric shock.
Finger guard
WARNING. To avoid electric shock when using the probe, keep fingers behind the
guard on the probe body.
To avoid electric shock while using the probe, do not touch metallic portions of
the probe head while it is connected to a voltage source.
Connect the probe to the instrument and connect the ground terminal to ground
before you take any measurements.
Probe Attenuation Setting
Probes are available with various attenuation factors which affect the vertical
scale readout of the oscilloscope.
To change (or check) the probe attenuation setting, press the VERTICAL MENU
button (of the channel you’re using) and then press the menu selection next to
Probe until the correct setting is displayed.
This setting remains in effect until changed again.

Theory of Operation
This chapter describes the electrical operation of the TDS 200-Series Digital
Real-Time Oscilloscope to the module level. It describes the basic operation of
each functional circuit block shown in figures 3–1 and 3–2.
Main Board
The Main board contains a two or four channel acquisition system, trigger
system, acquisition/display controller, and system processor. Interfaces are
provided for two signal inputs, external trigger input, probe compensation, front
panel, LCD display, extension module, and power supply. Acquisition and
display functions are implemented in two application specific integrated circuits
(ASICs).
Acquisition System
Signals from the CH 1, CH 2, and EXT TRIG, or CH 1, CH 2, CH 3, and CH 4
input connectors pass through attenuators to the acquisition ASIC. The acquisition ASIC contains amplifiers and samplers for each input channel, A/D
converter, and trigger logic. The digitized waveform samples are transferred to
the display ASIC. Low voltage regulators supply isolated power to the acquisition ASIC.
Display System
The display system consists of the display ASIC, DRAM memory, and system
oscillator. Digitized acquisition samples are processed by the display ASIC and
stored into DRAM. The Display ASIC formats the waveform data and generates
drive signals for the LCD display. Front panel scanning is also performed by the
display ASIC.
Processor System
The processor system consists of the microprocessor and memory. The processor
system interprets the front panel controls, programs acquisition and display
parameters, computes waveform measurements, and manages the extension
module interface. Saved setups, waveforms, and calibration constants are stored
in nonvolatile memory. The processor system shares DRAM with the display
system.
Input Signal Interface
BNC connectors are mounted on the main board for the CH 1, CH 2, and trigger
or CH 1, CH 2, CH 3, and CH 4 inputs. The signal inputs are compatible with the
P2100 probes supplied.
Probe Compensation
The PROBE COMP and ground terminals are provided for probe adjustment.
TDS 200 Series Digital Oscilloscope Service Manual
3–1
Theory of Operation
Power Supply
The power supply module generates low voltage DC, a line trigger signal for the
main board, and high voltage AC to power the LCD backlight. The power supply
operates over a wide power line voltage and frequency range.
Display Module
The display module consists of a liquid crystal display (LCD), a display driver,
and a florescent backlight.
Front Panel
The front panel board holds the encoders and push button contacts that the
operator uses to control the instrument. An elastomer mat holds the conductive
pads for the push buttons. Circuits on the front panel convert the matrix into
serial data which is read by the display ASIC on the main Board.
Extension Modules
Each extension module also contains a GPIB, RS–232, and Centronics parallel
printer interface. A ROM on the extension module contains processor instructions to support the communications interfaces. Extension modules interface with
the processor system through the extension module port connector.

The instrument must have been operating continuously for twenty minutes
within the operating temperature range specified.
H
You must perform the Self Calibration operation described below. If the
ambient temperature changes by more than 5° C, you must perform the Self
Calibration operation again.
The time required to complete the entire procedure is approximately one hour.
WARNING. Some procedures use hazardous voltages. To prevent electrical shock,
always set voltage source outputs to 0 V before making or changing any
interconnections.
Self Test
Self Calibration
This internal procedure is automatically performed every time the instrument is
powered on. No test equipment or hookups are required. Verify that no error
messages are displayed before continuing with this procedure.
The self calibration routine lets you quickly optimize the oscilloscope signal path
for maximum measurement accuracy. You can run the routine at anytime but you
should always run the routine if the ambient temperature changes by 5_ C or
more.
1. Disconnect any probes or cables from the channel 1 and channel 2 input
connectors.
2. Press the UTILITY button and select Do Self Cal to start the routine. The
routine takes approximately one minute to complete.
3. Verify that Self calibration passed.

Adjustment Procedures
Adjustment Procedure
The adjustment procedure consists of 55 steps. Each step requires an external
voltage source for new calibration constants.
Before performing the adjustment procedure, you must warm up the instrument
for at least ten minutes in an ambient temperature between 20° C and 30° C.
Adjustments performed prior to warm-up or outside this temperature range may
result in poor performance.
If all steps in the procedure are completed successfully, a “Pass” message is
displayed and the new calibration constants take affect. If any step fails, the
procedure is aborted and the current calibration is not affected. You can choose to
abort the procedure at any step by selecting FCAL ABORT without affecting the
current calibration.
The equipment setups, shown in Figure 5–2, are required to complete the
adjustment procedure. Tables 5–2 and 5–3 list the steps in the procedure and the
signal requirement for each step.
Enable the Service Menu
You must enable the service menu to perform the adjustment procedure. With the
instrument on, insert a narrow object such as a plastic alignment tool into the
access hole, shown in Figure 5–1, until you feel the click of the momentary
button. Hold this button in and press the front panel UTILITY button.

Adjustment Procedure
Use this procedure to load new calibration constants.
1. Turn on the instrument and let it warm up for at least ten minutes.
2. Enable the Service menu as described on Page 5–2.
3. Press the UTILITY button and select Service from the menus.
4. Select FCAL INIT to initiate the factory calibration routine. You are now in
step 1 of the procedure.
5. As indicated by Step 1 in Table 5–2 on page 5–5 (TDS 210 and TDS 220)
or Table 5–3 on page 5–7 (TDS 224), connect a 0.0 VDC source to the
channel inputs.
6. Press FCAL STEP to load the calibration constant for step 1.
7. Follow the screen prompts along with Table 5–2 on page 5–5 (TDS 210 and
TDS 220) or Table 5–3 on page 5–7 (TDS 224) for the remainder of the
routine, applying the proper signal for each step.
NOTE. During some steps, the instrument may appear to be idle for several
minutes while it is processing information internally. Please have patience.
If any step in the procedure fails, the procedure terminates. Failure will result if
an incorrect signal source is connected. If this happens, you must start the
procedure over from the beginning.
If the procedure completes successfully, a “Pass” message is displayed and the
new adjustment takes effect.
8. Compensate the signal path by performing the self calibration routine.
Disconnect any probes or cables from the channel input connectors. Then,
press the UTILITY button and select Do Self Cal to confirm that you are
ready to proceed.
9. Disable the Service menu option.

containers or on a metal rail. Label any package that contains static-sensitive
modules.
TDS 200 Series Digital Oscilloscope Service Manual
6–1
Maintenance
3. Discharge the static voltage from your body by wearing a grounded antistatic
wrist strap while handling these modules. Do service of static-sensitive
modules only at a static-free work station.
4. Nothing capable of generating or holding a static charge should be allowed
on the work station surface.
5. Handle circuit boards by the edges when possible.
6. Do not slide the modules over any surface.
7. Avoid handling modules in areas that have a floor or work-surface covering
capable of generating a static charge.
Inspection and Cleaning
This section describes how to inspect for dirt and damage, and how to clean the
instrument. Inspection and cleaning are done as preventive maintenance.
Preventive maintenance, when done regularly, may prevent malfunctions and
enhance reliability.
Preventive maintenance consists of visually inspecting and cleaning the
instrument, and using general care when operating it. How often to do maintenance depends on the severity of the environment in which the instrument is
used. A proper time to perform preventive maintenance is just before adjustment
of the instrument.
General Care
Protect the instrument from adverse weather conditions. The instrument is not
waterproof.
Do not store or leave the instrument where the liquid crystal display (LCD) will
be exposed to direct sunlight for long periods of time.
The front and back cases help keep dust out of the instrument and must be in
place during normal operation.
CAUTION. To avoid damage to the instrument or probes, do not expose it to any
sprays, liquids, or solvents.

Inspection and Cleaning
Procedures
Inspect and clean the instrument and probes as often as operating conditions
require. The collection of dirt on internal components can cause them to overheat
and breakdown. Dirt also provides an electrical conduction path that could cause
an instrument failure, especially under high-humidity conditions.
Inspection — Exterior. Inspect the outside of the instrument for damage, wear, and
missing parts. Instruments that appear to have been dropped or otherwise abused
should be checked thoroughly to verify correct operation and performance.
Immediately repair defects that could cause personal injury or lead to further
damage to the instrument.
Cleaning Procedure — Exterior. To clean the instrument exterior and probes,
perform the following steps:
1. Remove loose dust on the outside of the instrument and probes with a lint
free cloth. Use care to avoid scratching the clear plastic display shield.
2. Use a soft cloth dampened with water to clean the instrument. You can use a
75% isopropyl alcohol solution for more efficient cleaning.
CAUTION. To avoid damage to the surface of the instrument or probes, do not use
any abrasive or chemical cleaning agents.
Inspection — Interior. During normal use, the instrument case guards the internal
components against common dust and dirt. However, if it appears that the
instrument may have been damaged or has been exposed to an unusually dirty
environment, you should inspect and clean the interior.
To inspect and clean the interior, disassemble the instrument by completing each
of the disassembly procedures in the order given starting on page 6–12.
Inspect the internal portions of the instrument for damage and wear using
Table 6–1 as a guide. Defects found should be repaired immediately.

Cleaning Procedure — Interior. To clean the instrument interior, perform the
following steps:
1. Blow off dust with dry, low-pressure, deionized air (approximately 9 psi).
2. Remove any remaining dust with a lint-free cloth dampened in isopropyl
alcohol (75% solution) and rinse with warm deionized water. (A cottontipped applicator is useful for cleaning in narrow spaces and on circuit
boards.)
STOP. If, after performing steps 1 and 2, a module is clean upon inspection, skip
steps 3 and 4. Proceed with step 5.
If steps 1 and 2 do not remove all the dust or dirt, all modules in the instrument
except the Display Module may be spray washed using a solution of 75%
isopropyl alcohol. Proceed with step 3.
3. Spray wash dirty parts with the 75% isopropyl alcohol solution and wait
60 seconds for the majority of the alcohol to evaporate.
4. Use hot (49_ C to 60_ C / 120_ F to 140_ F) deionized water to thoroughly
rinse the parts.
5. Dry all parts with low-pressure, deionized air.
6. Dry all components and assemblies in an oven or drying compartment using
low-temperature (52_ C to 66_ C / 125_ F to 150_ F) circulating air.
Lubrication. There is no periodic lubrication required for the oscilloscope.

Diagnostics
Other Troubleshooting
The instrument runs an extensive self diagnostics at every power-on. Running the
diagnostics from the service menu will provide no additional information than
the power-up screen and therefore is not needed. The menu selections are only
used during manufacturing of the instrument.
Use these techniques to troubleshoot other parts of the instrument.
Input Connections. Follow these steps to troubleshoot the input connections only
if the following condition is true: the instrument appears to function normally in
every way except you have determined that an input signal is not getting into the
instrument as expected.
1. Remove the rear cover using the procedure Rear Case on page 6–14.
2. Check that the coaxial connections to the back side of the BNC connectors
are intact. Use the DMM to measure continuity from the BNC connector to
the end of the coaxial cable where it attaches to the main board.
3. If no problem is found and the trouble persists, the main board is probably
defective in some way that the internal diagnostics cannot detect. Replace it.
Error Log. Failures that occur during the power-up diagnostics place an entry in
the error log. The error log list can be accessed anytime by pressing the
UTILITY button and selecting Error Log. Table 6–3 lists the possible error codes
and possible causes.
