Re: HP 8662A Power up - overvoltage shutdown
I modified a 8662 with the meanwell supplies. Works great. Will not argue nor can I prove that somehow the meanwells added some noise or other artifact. Its just works. It was a job to install them.

Re: Frequency range of HP 5352B frequency counter
I have 2 5350B counters, one unit had very poor sensitivity on input 2. I found a diode on that input PCB slightly leaky in and out of circuit, it was easy to find and that corrected the problem. If

Thanks Askild - I read your thread - really interesting project - thanks for sharing it. Your current draw info is really useful. ?I had no idea the 5.2V supply drew that amount of current. The

Re: anyone have broken HP 5342a counter GPIB/HPIB i/f or know of equivalents
Hi, It's not at all unobtanium. In fact, I have purchased an option 011 (it is the HPIB, 001 is the OCXO) some time ago on eBay. It consists of the HPIB board that plugs into the backplane and the

Re: anyone have broken HP 5342a counter GPIB/HPIB i/f or know of equivalents
I'm not sure what "ham friendly" means, but HP has had many models over the years that will hit 18GHz. Some to look for are the 5340A (very old, but good), 5350, 5351, and the rest of that family. The

Re: anyone have broken HP 5342a counter GPIB/HPIB i/f or know of equivalents
The best microwave counters in my view are EIP 545 or 548 series , they are nice counters and you can get them reasonable priced , EIP used a YIG filter on the microwave input which protects the

Hi if you are looking for a counter with GPIB then the questions have to be What functions do you want ? Highest frequency ? How much is in the bank for it ? counters can do more than just count for

I've encountered a fair number of Autohet(Racal-Dana) microwave counters at hamfests and e-fleas for under $100. They're rack mount affairs, so not as convenient a form factor as your counter.? The

anyone have broken HP 5342a counter GPIB/HPIB i/f or know of equivalents
Hi again, I am installing my HP 5342a counter, which is working, but it never came with GPIB i/f. I see the manual specifies option 001, with P/N?05342-60019 HP/IB Assy and P/N 05342-60029 HP/IP

It could be that there is a software limit but the spec on option 05 was 46GHz so it should not be to hard to figure out Sent: Wednesday, May 25, 2022 1:07 PM To: HP Agilent Keysight

Re: HP 3465A offset when input shorted
Another possibility is an LED. The large bandgap leads to exceptionally low leakage. Breakdown voltage shouldn¡¯t be a problem (certainly better than a 3904¡¯s b-e Zener voltage). Capacitance is

Re: HP 3465A offset when input shorted
Agreed. The anode of CR9 is held at approximately -3.92 V unless something takes current away from CR11 and the only thing that can do that is reverse current through CR9. Orin.

Re: HP 3465A offset when input shorted
---- When the node is clamped to let's say +5V, CR9 has (+5V-(-3.92V))=8.92V reverse bias. In the sim you should see CR8 and CR9 seeing ~ 2*3.92V+0.7V reverse bias in the extremes of the over voltage
