Re: Question regarding HP 334A (Distortion Analyzer)
I checked the indicated transistors and they check good. HOWEVER: I noticed that if I change the frequency range switch to a different range, A5TP4 springs to life. Basically, if the input frequency

Re: N-Connectors at uW Frequencies
Hi Rainer In the past I have looked at Aeroflex Planar Crown but cannot remember how good they are compared to a APC 3.5 or a 2.92 connector Do you have any practical experience in using them also

Re: N-Connectors at uW Frequencies
Yup fully understand all this......even going to 22 GHz can be risky depending on what you are doing but using a N-connector at 26.5 GHz still puzzles me esp for later models made by Agilent. Not sure

Re: HP 4195A NiCad Battery replacement
Tobias, In the 4194A you can store 3 OSL cal data with frequency range, etc... That's an nice feature since it's ready, right from power on, with up to the 3 cal/config you need for the current job.

Re: HP 4195A NiCad Battery replacement
I am not an expert, but from what I have read, if you reduce reduce the charge current NiMH will be fine to replace NiCd. From memory C/20 is fine. You can achieve that by just using *high capacity*

Re: HP 53310A debugging
It's working! Interesting problem, never would have found it without the CLIPs. There are a number of voltage 'sub-regulators' and filters downstream of the main power supply. One filter, an inductor

Re: N-Connectors at uW Frequencies
You might note that many of the Hewlett Packard spectrum analyzers of the past, that went much higher than 18 GHz, use female type N connectors on their inputs; this includes the popular 8566A and B.

Re: HP 4195A NiCad Battery replacement
Correct - The reset circuit checks the battery voltage under charge. It measures the battery voltage and the charging current and suppresses the Reset signal for both CPUs. Cheers! Bruce Quoting

New (off) Topic: Setting clock references on various equipment using WWV, guitar tuner, HF receiver, RF generator
I didn't mean to hijack the thread "How to check the accuracy of an HP 5342A frequency counter". So I am starting a new thread. I will paste in what I placed in the other thread too.

Re: HP 4195A NiCad Battery replacement
I purchased two of these and will let you know if they are successful replacement. The part number to look for is COMP-34SPC of N-SP2 replacement. It is a 2.4V 90maHr NiCad. Cheers Quoting Tobias

Re: N-Connectors at uW Frequencies
Hi Gedas. I'm in the same quandary with my 26.5 GHz 8563E.? I'm thinking that if it was designed to meet a government contract requirement like I think my unit was, the N connector might have been

Re: HP 4195A NiCad Battery replacement
Interesting. What types of settings are stored in that SRAM? so far I did not manage to store calibration (open short load). It is always lost when the instrument is switched off. Just checked it:

Hi Tobias, I didn't check what's stored in the 4195A SRAM, but for the 4194A, some user calibration data (as when you cal a VNA with a cal kit) and also some setup configurations (you can store of

Re: How to check the accuracy of an HP 5342A frequency counter
To address what Greg Muir stated, that's why I use the guitar tuner. I can 'hear' when the WWV signal fades away because the beat frequency of 440 hz goes away and the tuner needle will leave center,

Re: HP 4195A NiCad Battery replacement
If you look carefully at the diagram, HP has built the 4195 so that the unit will not boot if the charging voltage is high or the battery voltage is low. There is a narrow window around 2.4 volts
