Re: 6502 inverse assembler for 16700 series LA
The 6502 inverse assembler for 16700 LA's is available on this thread on the eevblog forum Ironically the files there are actually from this list, so maybe they're in the list archive or files section here too. There's been quite a bit of progress working with those files in that eevblog thread though and there are a lot of resources. There's enough info there to compile any of the oldschool IAs into a dll that you can use on the newer windows based 169xx analyzers as well.

A long time ago I wrote a disassembler for 6502, and I still have the source code. It's written in Basic so shouldn't be too hard to port to a modern platform if you want it. My use for it was to disassemble the Ohio Scientific Basic-in-Rom and the monitor chip, eventually using it to figure out all the hooks to tie HexDOS into it so I could keep the RAM footprint for HexDOS down to one boot track (2048 bytes exactly).

Re: Mating APC 3.5 with APC 2.92 connectors
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHi Dave Thank you for the Paper Regarding connecting SMA to APC 3.5 or 2.92? the problem is the SMA ?and who made it? ? as a lot of inferior SMA when we are talking about working above 10 Ghz are only fit for the trash can the next reason not to use SMA with the APC 3.5 or 2.92? is Why as a good SMA will probably do 24 Ghz in a lot of work but compare the results using all APC 3.5 and the level flatness against frequency is much improved ? In the past I have found that a 2.95 mm adapter is not that much more expensive than a APC 3.5 so I tend to focus on 2.95 mm adapters So I do quite often use 2.95 and APC 3.5 together ?

Hi,
Its probably a 2.2uF tantalum capacitor.
Someone else might know for sure.

Re: Mating APC 3.5 with APC 2.92 connectors
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýAlright, I can¡¯t resist:
With China, you get what you pay for. Sometimes you pay (extra) for quality you don¡¯t get, but expected when you paid a premium.
All that said, part of the problem is either failure to force someone to adhere to tolerances and/or failure to reject the parts.
The other part is that something may look correct, and have the incorrect metallurgy, or had process changes without informing the customer.
My dad worked for a major HVAC company and their supplier initially rough machined, heat treated and finish ground motor shafts. As I recall, he told me that they deleted either the rough machine, heat treat or possibly both. Anyway, after a
few hundred motor starts the shafts started buckling internally, until the motor stator and armature made contact. It cost them a pile of money for school bus size rooftop units on large buildings to pay the warranty claims and it would¡¯ve been much cheaper
to do before installation.
In stuff that¡¯s a little more high tech, cutting corners might mean skipping electroless nickel diffusion barriers that keep precious metal coatings from diffusing into the substrate or plating less than the require thickness resulting in peeling,
or failing to live up to the number of connector mating cycles or intermittent contacts.
?If you need three nines quality, that means taking 13 random samples out of 1000 and having zero fail to meet specifications.
The thing is people do that less and less.
With the issue of SMA/3.5/2.92 connectors, since the tolerance is plus nothing minus (a half thousandth or something like that I¡¯d have to check) on the center pin a go/no go gauge is really needed or perhaps a microscope and a straight edge
that can be check for light passing under a microscope.
I¡¯ve also seen sma female sockets with the center above the Teflon or the Teflon itself proud. Again plus nothing minus something small.
Under and over side pins are probably harder to detect without a specific purpose made gage.
Silver lining, buckling from a pin sticking out too far is probably far more likely than spreading a contact that if not mated too many time, will last a while.
Ugly side of 3.5/2.92 connections¡.the biscuit supporting the center pin may allow a connector saver to transmit the thrust from a pin that¡¯s too long.
YMMV

Unknown component on HP1345A monitor
Hello :)
I had a -15V supply short circuit on the XYZ board of an HP1345A monitor.?
?
I found this to be faulty but it is an unknown component and does not exist on the documentation.
?
It is written on it 9150 20K 225K
?
Can be found on the board 03577-66581.

Re: Mating APC 3.5 with APC 2.92 connectors
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýAh, that's why the HPAK 84904, 84905, and 84906 40 GHz attenuators come with 2.4 mm connectors instead of 2.92 mm K connectors.? And why we have 2.4 mm connectors on Keysight gear at work.?

Way back when in 1986,when I first purchased 2.92 Connectors from Wiltron ( the inventor, which was why HP did the 2.4, cause they couldnt stand buying connector from their competitor, Wiltron), Wiltron assured me that the 2.92 was backwards compatible to the APC-3.5 and the SMA. Of course, this does not include Chink SMA's as they are crap, but real, SMA's made to Mil-spec standards, like OSM,Weinschel, Narda, etc.

All I need to say is look up Dean Cheng & Peter Zeihan. China has 5-15 years to collapse. Sorry, demographics dont lie.

China is easy to misunderstand. Sadly, I am not allowed by NDA with a client to go into detail.
Let me ONLY say that - while bashing the Chinese gets you brownie points with the good looking Conservative girl down the road, and pisses off the libz, you are dealing with an ancient civilization which, until about 100 years ago, could and did easily rebuff offers from Western powers. Then the century of shame came, but now they are back again to the normal status. The Chinese are a deeply manufacturing oriented civilization, are 1.2 billion strong in manpower, with a Conservative government and no social decay. For them, manufacturing and trade of durable goods is the core of civilization. By numbers alone, even if they were a decade stupider, the sheer amount of more men would be enough to ensure that they still have an equal absolute number of great engineers to the USA. And to be clear there is no evidence of the Chinese being stupider at all. Plus, their social order and culture means that they work together more efficiently by and large. Do not let Conservative pundits misguide you - OK, face orientation MAY lead to minimal inefficiencies, but the otherwise higher work ethic compensates for that. It is like a very fast one handed cigar roller, and a decently fast two handed one. To my Conservative brothers: feel free to - misguidedly - hate the Chinese.
