Re: DIY: Repair of HP 8568B Step Attenuators - another question...
For a picture of the plastic rod with attached o-rings, lookup 5060-0342 at parts.agilent.com. I bought some back in September, but they are apparently only available to Agilent inside

I recall Lothar telling me several years ago that these O-rings were available for watch repair. -Eric

Re: HP 5385A Advice
Check out Hittite for fast dividers. You may find that dividing by eight is more acceptible considering that at such high frequencies, binary dividing is much easier than any other number. You can

HP 5385A Advice
Hi Folks Anybody have any advice on getting a decade divider to go in front of a 5385 counter so I can measure frequencies around X band. Divide by 8 is not acceptable. Clugey is acceptable as long

HP859x LODA Gate Bias adjustment
Hi All, Happy new year to everyone. I have a 8593E that has a Local un-level issue. While checking the LODA Gate Bias using the service level procedure, the DMM reading was around -1.29V and all

Re: 3457a on the way
Mouser appears to have these batteries for $5.xx US. Actually searching around it appears a bunch of places have them. BR 2/3A. I wouldn't get one that I even slightly questioned it's freshness.

Re: Oscilloscopes - analog but with digital capability?
We introduced the 2230 world-wide in the fall of 1985, so 1986 was the big year for it. It has equivalent-time sampling for display of repetitive signals up to 100 MHz, and peak detection for

Re: 3457a on the way
That looks very close to what's in mine. Their warranty is only against DOA. I wonder how old their batteries are... Steve

Hmmm, I just hit Wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_battery http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_monofluoride A CR 2/3 AA might do the trick. They are 3 volt lithium's. Varta 6237 or

Re: Oscilloscopes - analog but with digital capability?
It was almost certainly a 2230 (100 MHz and 20 MS/sec) or 2220 (60 MHz and 20 MS/sec) which came out in 1986 or at least first showed up in that year's catalog. The sample clock is not dithered but

Joe and all, I will pop the covers off mine again and have a look at the A1 board revision number and resistor values. Regarding battery voltage, I noticed a couple of web sites state that their

Re: 3457a on the way
Steve, Jeff, and all, My 2703Axxxxx 3457A also has the SAFT LX 1634, Lithium 3.0V, battery and it measures 3.032 VDC. Likewise, I can not see a date code on the battery, even after removing the

Re: Oscilloscopes - analog but with digital capability?
I'm not sure that I can point to any that don't. The DSO's I am aware of sample at their maximum rate all the time, and have a simplish analog roofing filter to keep the aliasing to a minimum. They

Re: 3457a on the way
Thanks Steve, I just did some testing with the Hamon divider in 0.1x (/10) configuration. I have to say..wow does that work well. I would say anyone up to maybe 300,000 count could certainly get good

Re: 3457a on the way
Jeff, The history of the 3457A on the way to you doesn't seem unreasonable. If it was built in the early to mid 90's it may have been calibrated annually until 97, and a year later when it was due

Re: DIY: Repair of HP 8568B Step Attenuators - another question...
Tom, The dimensions are .039" ID, .024" xsection diameter, and the originals were made of nitrile. I haven't had an 8568 attenuator apart but maybe one of the list members can verify if HP used the

Re: DIY: Repair of HP 8568B Step Attenuators - another question...
Do you guys have the dimensions or a suggested part number for replacements? Since these are for the 8568, they would most likely be used in other units. If they have a minimum quantity, maybe a group

Re: 3457a on the way
I didn't know that's how the revisions numbers worked. So the one I have on the way is 1991 revision. Interesting. I do fully plan on sending the meter off to Agilent, assuming it doesn't have any
