Re: HP 6012B volt zero and current regulation
Hi In my experience most bench power supplies show a similar behaviour. ?At one time I suffered repeated damage to equipment that was powered from a bench supply, when checked with a storage scope it went to a high voltage on turn on before settling back to the set voltage. I still think that for valid measurements you cannot use a light bulb, they are NOT a linear devices if you do an applied voltage plot against observed resistance, from a sixtey year old memory of an experiment they are square law devices 73 George G6HIG ??

I basically set the voltage to 20V and the amperage to 2 amps. I connected the voltmeter in series with the bulb and performed a dynamic load test by opening and closing the circuit by touching the probe lead of the voltmeter to the output of the power supply... I also have the Fluke voltmeter set to peak amperage measurement and these are the results that I found. With the 6012B set to 20V and 2A, upon closing the circuit the peak amps are 4 amps but quickly settles to 2 amps With the 6024A set to 20V and 2 A, upon closing the circuit the peaks amps are about 2.5 but quickly settles to 2 amps. The important observation here is the 6012B settles back to 2 amps, it seems the settle time is longer and the deviation is larger than the 6024A. Although these are two completely different supplies. If anything I could be nit picking here on the 6012B for its regulation settle time and overshoot, which is why I wanted to see if someone else had a similar supply and could see if they could duplicate the same results to see if this is normal... Thanks for the help |

I guess there was no problem at all transferring messages? I scraped the group awhile ago when I thought yahoo might disappear. No jails, no throttling, no VPN required. It just worked. I think it was a little slow, maybe overnight for 88K messages. Glad to see you had no troubles! Thanks again! Keith On 8/20/2018 9:08 AM, James Allen wrote:

The migration of Yahoo -> groups.io is now complete
Dr. David Kirkby from Kirkby Microwave Ltd
Hi all, The transfer of your Yahoo Group hp_agilent_equipment to your Groups.io group HP-Agilent-Keysight-equipment is complete. We've transferred the following parts of your group:
IMPORTANT: Yahoo Groups has been very unreliable lately. If you find that you are missing Photos, Files or Messages, it is because we were unable to export them due to problems with Yahoo Groups. Also, we do not transfer calendar events. Here are some statistics:
<snip list> 431 email addresses were not added because they were bouncing. ? 1396 photos were transferred. 486 files were transferred. 40 links were transferred. WARNING: Some links were not able to be transferred because of a bug in Yahoo's export system. You will need to manually review the links. 6 databases were transferred. If you have any questions, please contact [email protected]. Cheers, |
Re: migration test message
+1 ;) Have all the yahoo topics been copied to for searching the archives?First topic ever on the group? 2018-08-20 9:54 GMT+02:00 Leo Kroonenburg <castellcorunas@...>: Ok here |
