Re: HP 8594E upgrade CRT to LCD
Stuart not to throw stones. But I have seen a fair number of tek lcd displays that have gone to heck. Normally something like crystal leakage. (I just made that up). I can think of things like the tek TDR 1503 non crt versions yet the crt versions still work. Just saying we hobbiest users use the gear far past any expectation that it should work.

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýAccording to the compatibility matrix ONLY 85090 series ECAL are supported by the 8753 series analyzers , the N469X kits can be used however with the 8719/20/22 series but in any instance the 85097B is needed and the VNA must have the appropriate FW revision ?

The 8753e should also work with some newer ECAL units(such as the n4691a/b) but finding the unique cable they require is tough. I was not able to locate one when I was searching. ? |

no , the older VNA required the use of either a 85060C controller or a 85097A PC interface ,? there were also some FW requirements on the 8753 as far as i remember?
on a side note i want to caution you on ECAL kits , having used ECAL on both Rohde and Agilent units i have to warn you that ECAL units are very easy to damage and extremly sensitive to ESD? |

Re: eCal & HP-8753E
I'd be interested in the power supply if it is available.

This is what I got.----------------- Most likely U1 is good. You have one Vbe drop from pins 3/6 to pins 4/5 which is correct and collectors at pins 12/13 are balanced. In the plots you attached I thought there was an imbalance in pin 4/5 voltages but the scales are different and they match. Input section looks fine.? From a brief analysis of the output stage, pin 13 voltage swing looks too high (2.4Vpp), even pin 12 swing is high . U2 and surrounding components look like a transimpedance stage and should keep pin 12/13 swings very small. Given the signal swings, U2 is not doing its function, but it could be because of bad components around it so it doesn't mean U2 is bad for sure. I recommend looking around U2.? DC voltages at pins 2/3/5/6/7 may give clues.? Ozan |
Re: Storage Cap Ripple
Just keeping the 8566B in good condition in case I want to sell it. But it's a good point - my Trimble GPSDO probably has pretty good phase noise and I probably could use it as the reference for the 8566B. I should see how the NOS OCXO in the 8566B is doing.? The one I mentioned below is just sitting on the bench powered by a bench power?supply. On Wed, Feb 23, 2022 at 7:34 AM Jim Ford <james.ford@...> wrote:

This is a mailing list, not some web thingy. At least that's the way *I* access it, my mail program hits the groups.io servers and downloads this stuff...
While DSL was at one time considered "broadband", it's a poor performer compared to what some folks do with cable, etc. Unfortunately this rural location doesn't provide a whole lot of choices. The point here is that when one of you guys attaches a multi-megabyte file to one of these emails, I get to download it whether I want it or not. Which ties up my connectivity until the download is done. I don't mind the occasional pictures and such, but those big files are something else!

Re: eCal & HP-8753E
Is the software coming with it ? I allready have one but without software. On Wednesday, February 23, 2022, 06:28:47 PM GMT+1, Steve Draper <steve@...> wrote: Get an 85097 as others have mentioned.

HP 8594E upgrade CRT to LCD
Last night I upgraded the monitor on my 8594E to the NewScope LCD that you find for sale on eBay.? The SA was in good shape but you could not read the text on the monitor because of burn in and no focus. I have many years of experience in TV repair but this CRT had no hope. The install of the LCD went well, just some adjustments of the no glare screen was needed.? The new image is one thousand times better than what was there.? Some people say the price is too high for the LCD but I saw a NOS CRT for sale at the same price. I rather go to the modern LCD.? The NewScope LCD did not come with instructions. You had to go online to get them.? Also you will need the service manual to remove the old CRT and disconnect various connectors to prepare the SA for the new LCD. You have to have a iron ready to jumper a resistor on the video board with another resistor.? So the install is not plug and play.? I think I was done in a hour and a half but I was taking my time.? Did not want to mess up something.? I now have an old CRT sitting in the floor. Who wants it?

Re: eCal & HP-8753E
Hello, I am in this case and could never find the software for the 85097A...

I have seen people online trying to locate the software. The 85097B doesn't need a PC - see attached, but the manual doesn't list 8753E as a compatible analyzer - only 8753ES. I have the 85060C.? It works well.? There are a couple listed in the $150 range. I have two ecal modules.? One type N and the other 3.5 mm.? I got them cheap as 'not working - parts only' Some sellers don't realize the module will show red until it warms up - about 20 minutes. |
