Re: HP-8753E Option Key Installation Failure
OK, then this gives me an idea of what you might be familiar with. I'd suggest looking for some 6800 or 6502 data sheets that include read and write timing diagrams.? Any tutorials that include basic

Re: HP-8753E Option Key Installation Failure
Hi Harvey: Thanks this is helpful information! There is, what I am pretty sure is RAM located on the same board. Based on my brief reading of the service manual while attempting to source schematics,

Re: HP-8753E Option Key Installation Failure
This is shocking. I have had other HP tests equipment of the 8753E era and they were pretty well documented to include schematics. Diagnosis of the 8753E as described in the service manual very

Re: HP-8753E Option Key Installation Failure
FW versions: That is only true for 8753D with the CPU upgrade option. The CLIP unfortunately only describes the original 8753D CPU board.

Re: HP-8753E Option Key Installation Failure
The 8753D CLIP is available at ko4bb.? The 8753D takes the same latest firmware version 7.74? as the E and ES.? The processor schematic might be close enough to help you.

Re: HP-8753E Option Key Installation Failure
Ok, the actual kind of processor is a little less important than you think.? You can pretty much interface an 8080 style (intel) chip to a motorola (68xxx) style processor with a little logic. What

Re: HP-8753E Option Key Installation Failure

Re: HP-8753E Option Key Installation Failure
I guess none of the service manuals have a schematic for the 8753E. Anyone know of a source for these schematics? If not all them, I could use the A9 CPU board Schematic.

Re: HP-8753E Option Key Installation Failure
OE is generally derived from the processor's read/write outputs (what kind of processor is it? 68xxxx series).? IIRC, it's likely a read/write level combined with a "valid memory address (i.e now do

Spec for the old 8656A is 0.5% THD, but is normally much better for the internal oscillator.? You can use a low distortion external oscillator of course, and even an MPX generator.? I don't know
