Instruction Sheet for the PASCO Model CI 6552A 012 05783A 2 95 1 00 POWER AMPLIFIER II TRA gaS SSD MPLIFIER Ii CAUTION Introduction The PASCO CI 6552A Power Amplifier II is an acces sory to the PASCO Signal Interfaces Series 6500 and Mac65S It amplifies the output of the computer allowing it to be used as a controlled DC power source or an AC function generator With the Power Amplifier II plugged into one of the ana log channels of the Signal Interface the appropriate soft ware Power Amplifier for DOS Power Amplifier for APPLE II or Science Workshop can be used to generate the following types of waves up to 10V peak at 1A up to 5 000 Hz e sine e square e triangle and e sawtooth This means the computer can now be used as an AC sig nal generator to power external circuits while it monitors its own output current as well as other inputs The Science Workshop software can also generate a DC output Filter Select Switch The CI 6552A Power Amplifier II has a filter select switch which is preset for use with the CI 6560 Signal Interface II Mac65 The bandwidth at that switch posi tion is about 100KHz limited by the power amplifier s feedback compensation section and the load When using the Power Amplifier II with the CI 6510 Signal Interface Series 6500 the bandwidth needs to be limited to 1 5KHz To change the switch position push the filter se lect switch in the
