Request HDD image for Agilent Infiniium DCA 86100C mainframe
Hi guys!
Can anyone share the disk image for the 86100C?
This mainframe runs on Windows XP.

Re: 8711B tantalum disease
One was a 20 volt part on a 15 volt rail.? The other was a 10 volt part (!) on a 12 volt rail.
I replaced both with 35 volt parts.
Nice that the power supplies have current sensing and shut

Re: 8711B tantalum disease
My impression is that the ones that fail are those that have voltage applied to them which is close to or at the part's rated voltage. One instrument that I'm familiar with used a *lot* of parts

Re: Modifying IC socket
I did the NewScope LCD upgrade on my 85662A, 8757A, 8510C, and a beta test version on an 8510B. They are excellent upgrades, especially as one’s eyes get a little older. I don’t recall my 85662A

Re: Modifying IC socket
Glad you solved it!
Be interested to see what you think of the NewScope kit - I'm thinking of swapping out the slightly dim CRT display in my 8510C for a NewScope-7C

Interesting, not seen that before but I very much doubt it could have been 'threaded' over the pins of a through-hole socket - so I would guess it just has not got a full length bar underneath?

Peter,
I agree - tantalums are a pest.? Perhaps the problem isn't the tantalums but our fascination with equipment from the dodgy tantalum era.? We can replace tantalums, dried electrolytics, leaky
