Re: A homemade diode power sensor for HP meters
Robert, do you own a schematic of the diode sensors? The schematic for the thermocouple sensors was hard enough to obtain. In the current service manuals, there are of course no schematics at all, and

Re: A homemade diode power sensor for HP meters
Interesting project. The diagram you show is for the Thermocouple "A" suffix sensor. While the principle and basic circuit is the same for diode and thermocouple, the A2 PCB is different so there must

Re: Yet another TG project

Re: A homemade diode power sensor for HP meters
@Peter thanks. Yes, exactly, the meters themselves are really cheap. I currently don't have access to some blown 8481A or similar sensors, so I cannibalized a sensor cable :-( because the connectors

Re: A homemade diode power sensor for HP meters
Very cool, Tobias. You may want to study up on the interface between the 436 and sensor heads. There's typically a particular resistor in each head type for identification by the 436 - it then

Re: A homemade diode power sensor for HP meters
This is an interesting project.? As you say the meters themselves are dirt cheap.? I have seen blown sensors sold cheap as well and maybe it's possible to build your circuit into one of those which

A homemade diode power sensor for HP meters
Hi guys, as you all know, the HP 435A, 436A, 437A and so on are quite nice power meters and the meter itself is availabe at quite low prices. However, the power sensors are quite expensive. I own a

Re: Yet another TG project
Thanks Don, That is very interesting regarding the sweep digitizing process - I'll have to look into that. Regarding the LO shifting process, I was vaguely aware of it, seeing it mentioned years

Re: Yet another TG project
Now I'll talk about the methods used for processing the LO signals. There are many ways to do it, but I used particular arrangements depending on what I had on hand in the junk parts department. My

For those that do not know SMA, 3.5 and 2.92 are all physically compatible. SMA is good to 18GHz, 3.5… 34GHz, and 2.92 to 40GHz. 2.4 and 1.85 are physically compatible. 2.4 to 50GHz and

Re: Yet another TG project
Ed, How versed are you in the freq. tuning scheme of the 8568? Are you aware that the scheme involved toggling frequency shifts between the 1st and 2nd L.O.’s every 20MHz of freq. sweep? This was

Re: Yet another TG project
Ed, I just recalled a weird intermittent failure involving the 85662A A3A4 and A3A8 brds. The sweep ramp goes to both brds. if I recall correctly. The A3A8 digitizes the sweep ramp and when it hits

Leo, Will be good when you have already open A24 module to write-down state of the pins 8, 9 and 10 of U313 in function of the frequency bands. Milan

Re: Synthesizer module in ESG series E4435B
I'd sign up for a replacement board or even just the gerbers so I could get my own made instead of using your time. In fact I'd probably just be happy with the schematic, parts list and instructions

Hi Ed, I’ve done pretty much the same thing a few times with asst SA’s. ?You’ll find that the narrow bandwidth on the SA really isn’t that useful with an SA/TG combination as the DUT will

Re: Yet another TG project
It's been chilly out again, and the 8568/85662 has been running stable since last night without any sweep-stopping, so I took the opportunity to work on the TG some more. I took some screen shots to
