Re: datasheet 1906-0231 on HP8980A
Keysight gives this:
Diode-Rectifier dual VR-200V IF-15A
Hello
?
I can't find any information on the component in the TO-3 case from power Supply HP8980A
?
It is written on it:

Re: datasheet 1906-0231 on HP8980A
Hi,
It's seem to be a R712 from Microsemi:
Hope that it will help.
Best regards.

my question/ suggestion
is - where is it in the circuit? that will sometimes tell a lot
about the device and its' function.

Dear Sir / Madam
I have only just joined this group earlier today and am still trying to work
out how to navigate my way around
I have a HP 3457A and it keeps giving me an error 256. I have replaced the
filter caps and followed the steps in as shown in a series of YouTube videos
and I can get the diagnostic 8 to pass most of the time, however it then
fails. On the YouTube series, the guy replaced 6 of the FETS as shown in the
attached document. I am trying to find modern equivalents of these to order
them. I have contacted Keysight and Element 14 to no avail. Can someone
suggest a part number and or brand of FET I can use which should do the job as
per the manufacturers original specs ?

Re: No IF latch when input 1G signal into HP 5350B
Hi Samba,
Do you have the service manual? Have you read the trouble shooting section? Please be careful around the sampler, as it is a sensitive device.
I would follow the trouble shooting, and first check the DC voltages for voltage within the required range, and also check for ripple.
Next would be to check the LO signal. Notice this is around 14dBm, so use attenuators. What test equipment do you have? (spectrum analyzer, oscilloscope with 500MHz band with, frequency counter, power meter and so on.)
Regards, Askild

Video Information for the Wiki
I have some YouTube videos on the way for some vintage HP equipment. I have a bunch made for Tek gear but the plan was never to be exclusive. I am curious if this is content that the group would like to add to the wiki pages? If so how would I be able to add links to the units under the correct model numbers. I currently have content for a modern frequency counter 51313A as well as some videos on the way for a 200CD, HP410B,and HP 412C. With more always on the way.

I know! I thought about asking a neighbor to come over and break it, and not tell me how. But then I just decided to be happy about getting a 3457A for $75. B-)

Sure. But while I own a 3457A, I've never had to repair it, so I
can't help you with your FET issue.
It was frustrating, actually. I bought it on eBay as "broken",
wouldn't power on, and got it very cheap. (like $75) The power switch
was mechanically jammed. I was looking forward to a fun
troubleshooting
session!

HP 8594A Spectrum Analyzer - garbled Display after 3.6V battery replacement
Hello HP enthusiasts,
I have an HP 8594A spectrum analyzer. One day it greeted me with the dreaded "cal constants lost" message. After replacing the 3.6V AA battery, the analyzer came up fine on first startup. But now, on subsequent boot, the display is garbled. A check with a scope on the video output shows, that that the frequencies are all wrong (frame rate is 4.4Hz instead of 60Hz and line frequency is 9.4kHz instead of 16kHz). I have seen the garbled display before, when going into preset (but after a reboot, the analyzer was fine, so I just didn't use preset...). It seems to me, that the "unfitting preset" setting, is now the power on default? I've already got the 8590A service manual from Artek, but a complication came up - the (A16) cpu board is quite different from the description! It's marked as an "08593-60005". So from an HP8593A? I'm at a bit of an loss here. Since the analyzer comes up fine on first boot, I've had the thought to overwrite the preset with the "actually applied settings" in that moment, but can't find any information on how to "update the preset", so to speak. I hope to find someone here to shed some (or any, really) light on the situation, and revive the analyzer.
Kind regards, Christian

Re: HP 3457A FET Transistors
> I will get some on order
J3xx fet's should be (used to be ?) pretty cheap, I suggest getting quite a few more than required in case you need to do some matching or parameter binning for e.g. Idss , Vgs etc...
PS Craig, if you could disable your email signature for this list that would be nice; it comes with a bunch of attached images which is annoying and takes longer to load...

Re: 5086-7337 *Yig Oscillator issue*
Also I read about this on Kerry Wong blog and CuriousMarc video.
For the first harmonic band I need to place a mixer in the upper path. So the mod only be possible on band 0 (0 to 2.5 GHz)
Because the benefits of leveling circuitry, I'll give it a try for didactic and entertainment purposes, but still not happy with the project...

Ruben

A few years ago I retrofitted the tracking generator option to my 8595E analyzer. I’m pretty sure the LO distribution amplifier (LODA) had a bias value written on the top label. There is a trim pot on the control board for setting the bias. All the information should be in the 8590 series service manual. You just have to fish through it and pick out your applicable unit.
Hello Jeremy,
thank you for your answer I will see on this side there and looked in the manual what is said about the settings to be made thank you very much joel ON4lj
