But shortly thereafter, 16R8 (etc), the 'R' meaning "Registered", appeared. These are sequential logic devices that store state and have feedback terms. Still later, the 16V8 etc, (the 'V' meaning "Variable" or "Versatile", depending on who you ask) have still greater functionality. It's easy to implement something like a shift register using PALs and nothing else. -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA |

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýLooking at the 8340 manual it states that PIN4/10/11/17 are used and corresponding to control bits 3/1/0/2? on the testset , I was looking at the 8516 manual and it shows 4 wires from the rear panel connector running to the A5 Doubler control ending up in a PAL that decodes the adress to control filters , no control bit designation is given ! So the main challenge would be to figure out the pins on the testset side ,? since this is all logic stuff I don¡¯t think there is a risk to just rigging up a 1-1 cable using DB25 connectors and try it ?

Sent: Tuesday, February 22, 2022 1:30 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [HP-Agilent-Keysight-equipment] 8516A cable question ? To start with, the 8516 test set does not use a serial communications scheme. The cable is most likely a parallel cable. Why it was specified as RS-232 is strange, unless the thought was that those were very common so a couple of crossed wires (pins 2 & 3 as I recall) were anticipated. Or, they simply did not use those pins since I doubt they needed 25 conductors anyway. This is based on my experience with the 8753 test sets, however,. ? From: [email protected] <[email protected]>
On Behalf Of Harvey White ? PALs are combinational logic, such as (using address lines)? A4 and A3 and not A2 and A1 and not A0. To decode serial data, you need flip-flops, some storage to convert serial to parallel and then act on that. CPLD's can do that, but with most PAL chips, depending on what's internal, it would be difficult. Generally, PALs are used to decode address lines to enable a specific chip. Harvey ?

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI know it is labeled RS232 but unfortunately that does not mean a regular RS232 Cable can be used , I looked through the service manual for the 8340B and it indicates the pin numbers on the rear panel connector of the 8340 but it refers to control bit numbers which would indicate a parallel port rather than serial , also the 8516 service manual indicates that the pins are connected to a PAL on the doubler control board , I am a RF not a digital guy but I don¡¯t think you can use a PAL as a serial decoder ?

#141-66513
-- HP8558B Versus HP182T Sweep Fail. Good year 2022 without the accursed bug. Well there everyone ? In April 2019 my HP8558B decided to let it do the sweep? Fig0 , I found that only with external sweep it worked, it was on the waiting list for a better analysis, however I was around the HP8116A and with external help I got there (well there Markl). In December 2021, in a visual inspection of the HP8558B plugin, I found that some of the contacts (fingers) of the 4 switches were loose, and I thought it was here, and the novel that I summarize below began Preliminary Notes: Understanding certain details implies access to the HP182T/C Service Manual. I urge HP experts to speak up. ? 1st 2019 I lost the HP8558B scan Fig0 2nd 2021 I considered that the failure was due to lack of contact finger in the SW. Fig1 and Fig1.1 , ward work. 3rd mechanically fixing the fingers of the SW Fig2 4th Malfunction remains? 5th Test of the switches all OK, with the help of a kit adapted from the IC card HP10529-20005 Fig3 and fig4. 6th Why not use my HP180C+HP1802 and HP1821A that is stopped !! fig5 , because I haven't used it before ? Test with the Main Frame HP180C and the HP8558B, after de-rusting the switches and adjusting, voil¨¢ HP8558B OK!! 7th Use 182T with HP1801 and HP1821 OFF, I confirm the failure is in the HP182T. 8th All voltages on HP182T OK. 9th Summary measurement of transistor and diode junctions (all?) OK 10? Measurement of HT -3KV ?? and 19KV ?? , result? +-2.9 and +-? 18KV, OK 10th Use of two 1V 100 Hz sine wave generators for input on the HP1801A and the EXT INPUT sweep on the 180C 11? Results in a distorted Lissajous image by pressing FIND BEAM Fig6 12th With Intensity CW almost at MAX. clear image Lissajous Fig7 13th In sweep INT values of UNBLANKING GATE board A7 pin14 is -0.2V should be -0.7V 14th Output on board A7 ALT TRIGGER pin13 for Plug-in not detected? 15th UNBLANKING SIGNAL output values also in A7 pin w4, is between +20 and +75V when it should be between +42 and +92V?

Re: How to find patents for HP equipment
Bonjour, some misinformation in a few replies.
35 US Code ¡ì 287 - "Limitation on damages" mentions effect of lack of notice and marking ion patented devices. After issue, the patentee or assignee shoudl mark the equipment with patent numbers. Nowadays "Virtual makring" allows a website link to all the applicable patents. Check the HP manuals of the instrument for a list of applicable patents. Jon |
