Re: HP 5335A - Need some parts. -followup

Ok, the 5335A is now working. One of the group members kindly came up with the needed cables and that led me to the original problem with the unit. A bad input fet, 1855-0300, Q5. The best I could find was around $20 for the actual part. I was able to determine the charistics of this part from the voltage readings in the manual and came up with a good replacement, a 2N5485 works great and is readly available for pennies.

The ebay seller listed the unit showing intact calibration stickers leaving one to believe it was a complete working unit at one time. This could not be the case seeing that the cables were missing. This seller is located in Chatsworth, Ca. so beware. While the seller did state correctly that the unit did not work, I feel it was misleading to have the calibration stickers on the case.

My thanks to the group for the assistance.

Regards,
Tom

Hello to the group,

I picked up an ebay special, does not power up but fan comes on.

Ok, that one almost came with an easy button.

The 5 volt regulator transistor was lose in its socket (TO-3). Fixed that, got back the +5 and panel came up.

I could not get any input to count. So I opened it back up and there is a problem, the two ribbon cables from the amp to the front panel are missing. That's amazing as the calibration stickers were untouched.

Long story short, does anyone have those two cables for sale? It's a 2 1/2 inch long ribbon cable with a 18 pin dip plug on each end. It plugs into a 18 pin x .3 IC socket on each end. There are two cables needed.


Thanks for reading,
Tom


PS. Diego, thanks for putting the 1.1 version up on KO4BB. That will be my next project after I find some cables.
