Re: Electrolytic replacement

 

Those little adapter PCBs are an interesting spin on it. I'll dig further into that
when I get back on Sunday - maybe they have some that fit these HP Spragues.
Re: Electrolytic replacement

 

If you're replacing a can cap, the ones in the link below work nicely. I just recapped one of my Tek 7603's rectifier/filter boards with them.

For the "square" style, he now has two different configurations; one where the + pin is directly in line with the negative terminals and one where that pin is 0.050" closer to the center of the can's old pins which happened to fit the hole pattern in those boards better. I used Harwin H2105-01 PCB pins to connect the adapter disks to the board as I wasn't too fond of the pins that are provided. It turned out quite nice.



Good luck,
Barry - N4BUQ

Hayseed Hamfest manufactures a wide variety of can caps. They did some direct
replacement caps for an HP volt meter I restored.
Interesting - what a peculiar specialty. Looks like they mainly do twist-lock
tabs with
solder terminals, and a few with pigtails. No PCB pins.

Yeah they're primarily aimed at vintage stuff.

Re: HP XY Display PSU Query

 

Oops, I was mistaken. The 1336S is an external power supply for the 1336A. Does your 1336A have AC and DC inputs?

And it is not in the Artek manual portfolio either.

Internally they have a very different design to the later 1340A displays that I am more familiar with.

Thanks Tom - I saw the spec sheet and was intrigued by the high definition of these (albeit quite small) displays.? I was aware that they had some significance for the movie mentioned :-)

Hi Tony,

If you assume that the 1336A and 1336S are similar, then maybe the schematics for the latter can be used as a rough guide, at the very least. A quick look at the connectors supports your initial guess that "R" stands for return.

If you haven't downloaded the 1336S's manual, take a look at it and see if it's at all helpful.

I have not traced the +/-15V circuit yet (or indeed any of the others!)? - that's a job for the weekend coming. I had assumed that the chassis was the ground for the 15V circuits.

Would the 250/21V rails need specific returns if they were (for some reason) AC supplies?

Tony?

Re: HP XY Display PSU Query

 

It looks like the 1336A received a revision to extend the input range for medical use and became the 1336S. There is more info available about the S rev.?

Here is a spec sheet

There are a few details in the march 1986 HP Bench Briefs.

VectorVGA has a scan of a doc listing other models in the 13xx range. None of the links work anymore so here is a copy of the important bits.

Electrolytic replacement

 

The question today happens to apply to my 5385A counter, but I suspect it's a FAQ
(as in: RTFF). Nothing hard about getting a 2200uF 25V radial to replace these HP
0180-3276 parts, but it'd be nice - mechanically speaking - if I could find this kind of
three-terminal version. Can anyone suggest any leads, or do I just have to suck it up
and get the closest-fit two-terminal part I can find?

Thank you, this is what I call just in time delivery. Two days ago I managed to repair a HP 4155A, lucky me it was only the power supply, and now I'm looking into acquiring triaxial cables and build some sort of fixture to connect the devices under test. Your example setup will certainly make it easier for me to start experimenting.

I understand the 6024A is an external power supply that can be controlled with an analog voltage, VS from SMU1. Somehow it provides a 12x higher voltage at its output (your multiplication to calculate VCE). How is this 12x factor defined?
WS> The HP 6024A can be remotely controlled by applying a 0-5V voltage to terminal A2. 0-5V corresponds to 0-60V output. That's where the 12x factor comes from.

A4 must represent an output of the 6024A that is in relation with the current on its output. You measure this A4 voltage with SMU-3 and multiply it by 2 to have the collector current IC. How did you identify this 2x factor?
WS> The current monitoring terminal A4 presents a voltage range of 0-5V to indicate a zero to full scale, 10A, current output. Thus, the 2x factor.

I guess these '12x' and '2x' have something to do with how the power supply works, but as this is a completely analog device I don't know for sure.
Page 10 of the Hewlett Packard Journal, October 1982, explains more of the details. I attached it.

Happy experimenting!

Re: HP XY Display PSU Query

 

Possible, but it can also be that there is a resistor between the raw input and the pin marked R (either for current-limiting or filtering purposes, or both). I've seen that use of R far more often than to indicate a ground return. You can use an ohmmeter to measure between the IN and corresponding R pin to see if there is a low-value resistance between them.

Hi,

My interpretation is that the pins with an ¡°R¡± suffix means ¡°return¡±. So ¡°+250R¡± is the return for the ¡°+250 IN¡±. Likewise for the 21V .


Is that the right way to read this?

That's how I would interpret it. Can you find a schematic?

Odd, though, that there's a +15V and -15V, but no ground. Are +21R and +250R connected to each other on the board, meaning could that constitute a circuit-wide ground?
