Re: HP 16533A Scope Card repair - HELP! :o)


 

I got curious:
"what if the calibration output is broken?"

It uses the same BNC as channel 1, sits near channel 1, what would happen if someone plugged a scope probe on calibrator output and tested something with that?

Well, with the scope connected to the output of my funcion generator and 100MHz scope, I see the SAME output of the generator on both screens O_O

Is a 7.5V square wave the right signal output for the calibrator?

I used the Probe output -> DC level option in calibration. Seems the DC Output in all calibration options are OK. Internal scope measures it OK too (I have to get out of the scope app, go to calibration, change voltage on the DC Level option, go back to scope app, measure DC voltage.

Errors: The errors are in the photo of my blog. Everything goes well up to hysteresis on channel 2. From now on, everything is an error. Trigger level, trigger delay and logic trigger fail on both channels. Hysteresis is ok on channel 1.

Same 1v square wave on channel 1 and 2, same amplitude, 10v also the same. Seems the relays are working.

I felt lost. A schematic would help, I don't know where to go next :\

It's probably not the hybrid since you're getting a signal on both channels according to your web page.? Also, the calibration cables are not so sensitive that a mm is going to matter, so the ones you made should be fine.
Is there an error shown as a result of the calibration?
If you're looking at the square wave signals as shown on your web page, can you change the scale manually and watch the signal increase and decrease in divisions correctly?? Is it the same on both channels?? Does the number of divisions make sense for your input signal?
Because you swapped the attenuators with no difference, it could be a problem with the drivers controlling the attenuator relays.? The relays are driven by the L239D mounted underneath each attenuator (U306 and U307).? If you are having a problem with both attenuators, you might also look at U709 (74ALS164) which drives the inputs to both of the L239D.
