CHECK OUT THE WIKI The purpose of the wiki is mainly to allow you to find information on instruments, either from either
- The model number
- The function(s) listed below. Some instruments have multiple functions - for example, the 4195A is a VNA, spectrum analyzer and an impedance analyzer. Therefore the 4195A is listed in multiple categories

HP8560A power supply repair
Today i fixed a problem in the 28 V line of our HP 8560A. The culprit was a dry elko in the voltage doubler, marked with polarity, 180 uF, 40 V. An interesting part, since it has three pins.

Re: Can I set up a 2.9 GHz (70904A) and 22 GHz (70905A) spectrum analyzer in 70004A display and 70001A mainframe?
You don¡¯t loop the IF out back into RF ¨C you could use IF out on the second section when in zero span mode to an SDR like a down convertor. That way you get real time display of something up

Re: Can I set up a 2.9 GHz (70904A) and 22 GHz (70905A) spectrum analyzer in 70004A display and 70001A mainframe?
You would still need to swap the LO between chassis. Much easier to just swap the RF sections each time in one chassis.

You can chain multiple IFs. I have two in one of my SAs and the 70900 is smart enough to select the appropriate one. There are inputs and outputs for the 21.something IF signal. But I don¡¯t think

Oh yes. The mainframe has plenty of oomph. There are many other modules besides SA that you may put in a single system. For example, one of Mine has the 70004 display and two 70001 mainframes

Are you sure the internal mainframe psu can cope wth two potentially power hungry SA's? This may preclude the worry of IF's... Regards Sent from Samsung by banging a nail into a piece of wood.

Re: Can I set up a 2.9 GHz (70904A) and 22 GHz (70905A) spectrum analyzer in 70004A display and 70001A mainframe?
But the mainframe I bought from eBay has a 70902A IF unit, and I already have a couple of IF units on the 22 GHz front end. So perhaps something like 1) Remove a partially working power sensor to free

The 21.4 MHz output from a front end module goes to the input of the IF module. The IF module has no provision for two inputs. How would you connect the two front end outputs to one IF module? You

The 22 GHz one has a minimum frequency of 100 kHz, whereas the 2.9 GHz one has a minimum frequency of 10 Hz. I was interested in the range 20 kHz -100 kHz, and the 22 GHz front end can't do that. Dr
