HP 3324A - sweep menu frustrations
Hi all,
I've had this minty 3324A for a pretty long time now, and I just stopped trying to use it at some point due to frustrations with setting up sweeps on it. Hopeful some good people here would

Re: HP 5334A Oscillator Support PCB
regarding grounds:
you're dealing with what's called circulating currents, or ground currents.
Let's say that you have an analog circuit, and that its ground is common (on the board) with a high

@Bruce
I believe it was Ozan who posted the image showing an LED in the stack unlit - certainly not me anyway.
I don't think we can attribute this to scanning/sweeping as that would be predictable and

Re: Agilent 8714ES missing graticule
Hi Lothar
Artek media had the 8714B schematic incl. display. The Graticule generation are probably identical and as the VGA graticule is OK then it might be possible to debug the problem when manuals

Re: Scoping the Power Rails [8566B]
-----
If 500kHz reference is not stable other input (feedback port) of the phase detector will not be stable either. No need to debug the feedback divider, 500kHz reference should be checked first. As

Re: Scoping the Power Rails [8566B]
Thanks for clarifying - anything that limits chaos is appreciated.
I remember a picture showing three LEDs of which one ws off and two were on. What board had the LED off ?
The PLL voltages may be

Re: Scoping the Power Rails [8566B]
A bit of clarification is certainly in order at this point, especially given there may be people new to the thread who haven't read it all through.
So.... the LED loop lock indicators for PLL1 and

HP 5334A Oscillator Support PCB
Hi,
I have an HP 5334A frequency counter and I want to install a 10MHz oven quartz oscillator to improve the accuracy. Although it¡¯s not hard to find the oscillator, getting the support PCB is

Re: Agilent 8714ES missing graticule
Hi John
Great thank you very much. I have found these in the schematic and also the video signal pin16. The Graticule signal is probably also missing in the video signal as processed in the video

Re: Scoping the Power Rails [8566B]
Correct, mostly if using the internal 10MHz reference. When connected to an external 10 MHz reference, the ref unlock is much less common - and if it does show up, it suggests that the 100MHz ref

Most 8566/68s show the Oven and REF Unlock initially connected to power.

Re: Scoping the Power Rails [8566B]
I thought he said that one of the 20/30 synthesizer LEDs was off - Probably best to look at that B4 the YTO. Also, the other plls fail only if the 100 MHz is drastically non functional. Try

Re: Scoping the Power Rails [8566B]
Jinxie said that the Oven and REF unlock disappear after 6-7 minutes,
so it's just an oven warmup issue. This is completely normal behavior;
the reference is fine. Also, I would expect all lock error

Re: Scoping the Power Rails [8566B]
OK -
Good information. The fact that you see the REF UNLOCK suggests that the 10MHz freq ref may need adjustment. This will mask any mis adjustment of the 100 MH REF OSC.
This suggests that ref
