Understanding the 8753ES frequency loop
I'm having a little difficulty fully understanding the YTO frequency control loop. There is a pretune DAC which gets the Main Coil to the right general vicinity.? The fine tuning (including sweeping

Re: Possible to repair HP 8120-2292 (part of HP 11853A accessory kit) coax cable?
I like the "attack" concept (!), however, that's the crux of my question - can I gracefully disassemble the problem end (agree I should be able determine which), or should I cut away the boot and try

Re: Signal Generator Comparison Chart ?
Also check the HP memory site, I may have seen some comparison guides to there, there will not be comparisons to anything Agilent and later though. Don Bitters

Re: HP 8664A signal generator repairability
Agreed on the Bird reference. They're great inline watt meters for high power needs, but not for fine performance verification. I use the E4418B and E4419B w/8482A and E9300A heads, or a U2001H USB

Over the years there have been several HP/Agilent/Keysight sig gen/ sweep gen comparison/purchase guides, generally in the sales literature. I have also seen comparison guides between Fluke and

Re: HP 8664A signal generator repairability
For a decent power meter you do NOT want a Bird.? They are pretty sloppy. I use my HP410B for example.? I calibrate it with my HP 3456A in the audio range and then it's good up to at least 500

Re: Signal Generator Comparison Chart ?
Hi James, That model is a candidate _BUT_ they don't ship internationally and that makes it harder to get. The freight can be enormous on these units too, so finding one at-the-right-price and with

Re: HP 8664A signal generator repairability
Hi, I am looking into getting one. The purpose of the above exercise is simply to make sure there are no gross problems with the 8664. Of that I am quite sure now, so I am keeping the instrument and

Re: HP 8664A signal generator repairability
Dear All, Measuring signal generator output accuracy with a spectrum analyser, even as nice a one as the 8566B, does not make a lot of sense since the amplitude accuracy is limited. The 8566B flatness

Re: 8970b
I think that's all it's doing, just applying the ENR amplitude for the DUT's input frequency instead of the frequency to which the 8970 is tuned. -Dave

Re: 8970b
Isn¡¯t the noise source broadband? You would only need to correct for the proper noise output at the different frequency vs. the frequency being measured, right? Peter
