Part No. Description
89410-44101 Silpad insulator
Situation:
Analyzers with an IF section serial number less than 3313A00220 may have calibration
failures caused by the IF section’s ADC shorting to its bottom heat sink. To solve this
problem, an insulator needs to be placed between the A20 U17 ADC and its bottom heat
sink.
Solution/Action:
Install a silpad insulator which is thermal conductive between the IF section’s A20 U17
ADC and its bottom heat sink.

If the analyzer has the optional second IF channel, perform steps for channel 1, then
repeat steps for channel 2. Do not mix the A20 A/D Converter assemblies between
channels. If the A/D Converter assemblies are mixed between channels, the adjustments for the Input and A/D Converter assemblies will need to be done.
CAUTION
The following steps must be performed at a static protected site
to prevent static discharge damage during the handling of the
PC assembly.
STEP 1. Remove A/D assembly.
1. Set the IF section’s power switch to OFF and remove the top cover.
2. Remove the card nest screws from the A20 A/D Converter assembly. See
Replacing Assemblies in the 89440A Service Guide.
