Atari's own field service manual for the Atari 5200, document FD100127 Rev. 4, July 1983. Section 1 sets out the three production boards โ€” CA018087 (original 4-port), CA020108 (4-port Universal) and CA021374 (2-port) โ€” and exactly how they differ, including how to identify a Universal board from the serial number. Section 2 carries the silkscreens and schematics, Sections 3/3A and 4/4A the test procedures and diagnostic flow charts with expected voltages, Section 6 the CX52 controller with flex-circuit continuity tables and potentiometer adjustment figures, and Section 8 the parts lists for all three boards with designators, values and Atari part numbers.
