5-43. REPAIR PROCEDURES.
5-44. SERVICING ETCHED CIRCUIT BOARDS.
5-45. The Model 3300A has six etched circuit boards. Use caution when removing them to avoid  damaging mounted components. The -hp- Part No. for the assembly is marked on the circuit board to  identify it and on the appropriate schematic. Refer to Section VII for replacement -hp- Part No. The  etched circuit boards are of the plated-through type. The electrical connection between the two sides of the board is made by a layer of metal plated-through the component  hole. When working on these boards, observe the following rules:
a. Use a low-heat (25 to 30 watts) small-tip soldering iron, and a small diameter rosin core solder.
b. Remove circuit components by placing the soldering iron on the component lead on either side of the  board, and pulling up on the lead. If a component is obviously damaged, clip leads off as close to the
component as possible and then remove leads with a soldering iron.
CAUTION:
EXCESSIVE HEAT CAN CAUSE THE CIRCUIT AND BOARD TO SEPARATE. OR CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE COMPONENTS.
c. Clean component lead hole with the iron and inserting a wooden
toothpick. Remove the toothpick after the solder has cooled and insert the new component lead.
d. Shape the new components leads and insert them in lead holes. Reheat with soldering iron and add a  small amount of new solder as required to insure a good electrical connection.
e. Clean excessive flux from the connection and adjoining area.
CAUTION:
TO AVOID SURFACE CONTAMINATION OF THE PRINTED CIRCUIT, CLEAN WITH A WEAK  SOLUTION OF WARM WATER AND MILD DETERGENT AFTER REPAIR. RINSE  THOROUGHLY WITH CLEAN WATER AND ALLOW IT TO DRY COMPLETELY BEFORE  OPERATING. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL OR ANY OTHER CLEANING SOLUTION EXCEPT  DETERGENT AND WATER. DO NOT APPLY ANY COMMERCIAL MOISTURE SEALING SPRAY
TO THE BOARDS. APPLICATION OF THESE AGENTS WILL CAUSE LEAKAGE PATHS AND SUBSEQUENTLY, DETERIORATION TO THE OPERATION OF THE  INSTRUMENT.
f. Wear clean, lint free cotton or rubber gloves when handling the circuit boards. Avoid touching the board or components with bare, fingers as skin oils can cause contamination and leakage paths.
5-46. SERVICING ROTARY SWITCHES.
5-47. The 3300A has three rotary type switches; RANGE. CHANNEL A, and CHANNEL B. When working on these switches, observe the following rules:
a. Use a low-heat (25 to 50 watts) small tip soldering iron, and a small diameter rosin core solder.
b. When replacing components, attempt to dress them as nearly to their original alignment as possible.
c. Clean excessive flux from the connection and adjoining area.

5-48. REPLACEMENT OF FACTORY SELECTED
COMPONENTS.
5-49. Replacement of factory selected components are identified in Table 5-3 and 5-6. Should it become  necessary to replace any of the capacitors in the feedback circuit of the Triangle Integrator. the
replacement capacitor (a good quality mylar film type) must be selected so that the approximate parallel  capacitance is as indicated in Table 5-3. If after capacitor replacement, the resultant frequency is not  correct, the necessary capacitor change can be determined by the following formula:
C correction = C feedback / [( Freq- desired Freq x 100)/desired Freq]

Example: X1K range inaccurate Freq of 9.8 KHz ( Range X1K dial 10)
C correction = [ 0.011 μF / (9.8 K – 10K) x 100/ 10K] = -0.01 μF / 8       = .00137 μF
5-50. TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURE.
5-51. This section contains procedures designed to assist in the isolation of a malfunction. These  procedures are based on a systematic analysis of the instrument in an effort to localize the problem.
These operations should be undertaken only after it has been established that the difficulty cannot be  eliminated by the adjustment and calibration procedures outlined in Paragraph 5-21.
5- 52. Conduct a visual check of the 3300A for possible burned or loose components, loose  connections, or any other obvious condition which might be a source of trouble. An investigation should  also be made to ensure that the trouble is not a result of conditions external to the 3300A.
5-53. The checks outlined in this section are not designed to measure all circuit parameters, rather only to  localize the malfunction. Therefore. it is highly probable that additional checks and measurements will be  required to completely isolate the faulty component.
Amplifier gain may also vary slightly between instruments; therefore, it is not necessary to precisely duplicate waveforms or voltages described.
5-54. MALFUNCTION ISOLATION PLUG.
5- 55. A malfunction isolating tool can be fabricated for isolating a malfunction to the 3300A or the plug-in unit.
5-56. PRECAUTIONS.
5-57. In the event the -20 volt supply is inoperative, the oven heater should be disabled while  troubleshooting.
A point to disable the oven is to disconnect the smaller diameter red wire (26 gage) from XA12  Pin 1. The larger diameter red wire (22 gage) should be left connected to XA12 Pin 1. When the – 20 volt power supply is left out, the oven remains in full heat condition. Thermal fuse A11F1 will melt and open  if this heat condition exists for any extended period.
5-58. When troubleshooting Power Supply Assembly, remove the Output Amplifier Assemblies A15 and  A16.
5-59. TROUBLESHOOTING TREE.5-60. In the event of a malfunction which causes the oscillatory system to cease functioning; the output  of the triangle integrator emitter follower would most likely stabilize at either one voltages as indicated in  Figure 5-8. Approximately +25 volts in the upper limit of the positive slope, and –2,5 volts in the lower  limit of the negative slope out of the integrator circuit.
The condition of the other major circuits in the basic oscillating loop, the Voltage Comparator Bi-stable  Multivibrator and current source, can, in most instances, be used to isolate the malfunction to a given circuit as outlined in Figure 5-8. The term normal, as applied to the results obtained at the different points  tested, refers to the output at that point which would reverse the slope at the output of the triangle integrator and sustain oscillation. Abnormal refers to that output which would produce the same slope and  prevent oscillation.5-61. Figure 5-9 contains the normal voltages and waveforms which should be present at the points
indicated. Voltage levels are approximate and may vary from instrument to instrument due to differences in transistors. 5-62 . TROUBLE SHOOTING TABLES.
5-63. Table 5-4 gives additional information to assist in the isolation of a malfunction. Symptoms and  possible causes are listed. Table 5-5, Maintenance Correlation Table, lists various 3300A functions and gives the corresponding performance checks and adjustments».
