AC/DC Relay and Ω/F Relay Control The Channel A/B AC/DC relays K171/K271, and the Channel A Ω/F relay K173 are controlled by the T-ASIC output signals ACDCA (pin 22), ACDCB (pin 23) and OHMA (pin 24). SCLK, SDAT Signals T-ASIC control data, e.g. for trigger source/mode/edge selection and relay control, are provided by the D-ASIC via the SCLK and SDAT serial control lines.. 3.3.4 Digital Circuit and ADC's Refer to the Fluke 123/124 block diagram Figure 3-1, and circuit diagrams in Figure 9-5 (Digital Circuit) and Figure 9-3 (ADC-section). The Digital part is built up around the D-ASIC HS353063 (D471A). It provides the following functions: • ADC data acquisition for traces and numerical readings • Trigger processing • Pulse width measurements, e.g. for capacitance measurement function • Microprocessor, Flash EPROM and RAM control • Display control • Keyboard control, ON/OFF control • Miscellaneous functions, as PWM signal generation, SDA-SCL serial data control, probe detection, Slow ADC control, serial RS232 interface control, buzzer control, etc. The D-ASIC is permanently powered by the +3V3GAR voltage supplied by the Power Circuit if at least the battery pack is present (+VR after filtering). The P-ASIC indicates the status of the +3V3GAR voltage via the VDDVAL line connected to D-ASIC pin N2. If +3V3GAR is >3V, VDDVAL is high, and the D-ASIC will start-up.

Amplifier 3 and 4 and connected resistors supply the REFADCT and REFADCB
reference voltages for the ADC’s.
Both voltages directly influence the gain accuracy of
the ADC’s.
The T-ASIC can select some of the reference voltages to be output to pin 8 (REFATT).
The REFATT voltage is used for internal calibration of the input A and B overall gain.
Tracerot Signal
The T-ASIC generates the TRACEROT signal, used by the C-ASIC’s.
Control signals
TROTRST and TROTCLK are provided by the D-ASIC.
AC/DC Relay and
/F Relay Control
The Channel A/B AC/DC relays K171/K271, and the Channel A
/F relay K173 are
controlled by the T-ASIC output signals ACDCA (pin 22), ACDCB (pin 23) and OHMA
(pin 24).
SCLK, SDAT Signals
T-ASIC control data, e.g. for trigger source/mode/edge selection and relay control, are
provided by the D-ASIC via the SCLK and SDAT serial control lines..
3.3.4 Digital Circuit and ADC’s
Refer to the Fluke 123/124 block diagram Figure 3-1, and circuit diagrams in Figure 9-5
(Digital Circuit) and Figure 9-3 (ADC-section).
The Digital part is built up around the D-ASIC HS353063 (D471A).
It provides the
following functions:
ADC data acquisition for traces and numerical readings
Trigger processing
Pulse width measurements, e.g. for capacitance measurement function
Microprocessor, Flash EPROM and RAM control
Display control
Keyboard control, ON/OFF control
Miscellaneous functions, as PWM signal generation, SDA-SCL serial data control,
probe detection, Slow ADC control, serial RS232 interface control, buzzer control,
etc.
The D-ASIC is permanently powered by the +3V3GAR voltage supplied by the Power
Circuit if at least the battery pack is present (+VR after filtering). The P-ASIC indicates
the status of the +3V3GAR voltage via the VDDVAL line connected to D-ASIC pin N2.
If +3V3GAR is >3V, VDDVAL is high, and the D-ASIC will start-up. As a result the D-
ASIC functions are operative regardless of the test tool’s is ON/OFF status.
The RAM supply voltage +VR and the FlashROM supply voltage +VF are also derived
from +3V3GAR.
Analog to Digital Conversion
For voltage and resistance measurements, the Input A/B (B for voltage only) signal is
conditioned by the C-ASIC to 150 mV/division.
Zero and gain measurement are done to
eliminate offset and gain errors.
The C-ASIC output voltage is supplied to the Channel
A/B ADC (D401/D451 pin 27).
The ADC samples the analog voltage, and converts it
