WARNING
HAZARDOUS RF VOLTAGE - CONTACT CAN CAUSE DEATH, SEVERE INJURY
OR BURNS.
ANY WORK REQUIRING THE REMOVAL OF COVERS OR PANELS MUST
ONLY BE PERFORMED BY AUTHORISED PERSONNEL WHO ARE AWARE OF
THE HAZARDS INVOLVED.
SKN= c~ìäí=Çá~Öåçëáë=ÅÜ~êí=
Use the following chart to locate and identify faults. Note that the chart lists typical fault
symptoms and is not exhaustive.
SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSES ACTION
(A) Drive motors do
not respond to
automatic or
manual control
Fuse FS2 blown
Fuse FS1 or FS101 tripped.
Investigate and repair fault, which caused the
fuse to blow. Then renew the fuse.
Investigate and repair the fault, which caused
the fuse to trip. (The fuses will automatically
reset once the fault is repaired.)
Note that these components are semiconductor
fuses which respond to an increase in current
above their rating (approximately 200 mA) by
increasing their internal resistance significantly.
The voltage drop across each of these
components under non-fault conditions is
approximately 0.5V
When tripped by high current, the voltage drop
is almost the full supply voltage i.e. 24V.
After power is removed, the devices require 20
seconds to cool down and reset.
(B) C1 or C2 drive to
min or max
1. C1 or C2 starting too far
from final match position
Adjust park potentiometers (Refer to sub-
section 6.4 (page 20).
2. Match position is out of
accessible range
1. Change process conditions
2. Change component fit in AMU (skilled
personnel only). Refer to sub-section 6.3 (page
19).
(C) C1 or C2 drive to
min or max and do
not return
manually
Capacitor has travelled past
an electrical limit
1. All vane capacitors only: Continue manual
travel in the same direction (to max if capacitor
is at max). The capacitor will turn fully until it
passes the opposite limit.
2. Readjust limit settings
(D) Plasma does not
strike even though
the reflected power
is low
Gas pressure is too low or
too high
Caution: do not run for > 2 minutes in this
condition. Change gas pressure to 20 - 200
mTorr range (RIE), or 0.5 - 1.5 Torr range
(PECVD)

SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSES ACTION
(E) C1 or C2 oscillate
close to match
1. Amplifier gain too high
2. C1 or C2 spindle thread
dirty.
See sub-section 6.1.1 (page 16).
Remove capacitor, clean and re-lubricate
capacitor’s spindle thread and bearing. Re-
align; see sub-section 6.1.2 (page 17).
(F) Drive motor shafts
rotate but capacitor
spindles do not.
Coupling between the motor
shafts and capacitor spindles
has become disengaged or
loose.
See sub-section 6.1.2 (page 17).
(G) End stops don’t
work, motor drives
through.
Park potentiometers have
broken
Check park potentiometers behind AMU
control panel and replace if necessary.
(H) Error signal pots
don’t adjust the
error signal or both
adjust one signal
only.
Links placed incorrectly Check links LK6, 7, 10 & 107 to ensure they are
in the correct position. If link is open end type,
ensure that metal insert is still present.
Hints and Tips
• Do not remove anything from the Motor Control board without removing the
power (JP2) first.
• When in ‘Auto’ mode RV1 and RV2 found on the side of the AMU casing can be used
to make fine adjustments to the match position.

Refer to Symptom (E) in the Fault diagnosis chart (see sub-section 6.1, page 15).
When adjusting the amplifier gain, initially adjust the associated variable resistor (RV101 for
C1 or RV1 for C2; see for locations). These variable resistors provide a ‘fine’ adjustment. If
required, a coarse adjustment is available by using links LK102 and LK2 as shown in Fig 7.

Refer to Symptom (F) in the Fault diagnosis chart (sub-section 6.1, page 15).
If the coupling between the motor shafts and capacitor spindles, has become disengaged or
loose, use the following procedure to align the shafts/spindles to their correct relative
positions.
1) Tighten the shaft and spindle grub screws.
2) Loosen the two bolts securing the motor/gear assembly to the AMU casing.
3) Carefully slide the motor/gear assembly away from the fan housing to disengage the
gear wheels from the capacitor.
4) Align the gear wheels to the capacitor depending on the AMU version as follows:
a) Air spaced capacitor
AMUs
(i) At the AMU control panel, set the relevant MANUAL/AUTO
switch to MANUAL.
(ii) Set the relevant MAX/MIN switch to MAX.
(iii) Fully mesh the capacitor vanes.
b) Vacuum capacitor
AMUs for RIE/PECVD
applications
(i) At the AMU control panel, set the relevant
MANUAL/AUTO switch to MANUAL.
(ii) Set the relevant MAX/MIN switch to MAX.
(iii) Set the relevant capacitor to maximum by rotating its
shaft anti-clockwise until the shaft becomes loose and
starts to unscrew from the capacitor body, then rotate
the shaft one turn clockwise.
c) Vacuum capacitor
AMUs for the ICP 180
application
For C1, use the procedure in b) above.
For C2, use the following steps:
(i) At the AMU control panel, set the C2 MANUAL/AUTO
switch to MANUAL.
(ii) Set the C2 MAX/MIN switch to MIN.
(iii) Set C2 to minimum by rotating its shaft clockwise until
the physical end stop is reached, and then rotate the
shaft one turn anti-clockwise.
d) Vacuum capacitor
AMUs for RF ion
source applications
For C1 and C2 alignment in this AMU, use the procedure for C2
in c) above.
5) On completion of capacitor alignment in Step 4), re-engage the motor/gear assembly
to the capacitor and tighten the securing bolts.
6) Check capacitor travel.
