I DO NOT SEE THE NEED FOR THE USE OF DIVISIVE NAME CALLING. It s OK (IMO) to call out CHINESE connectors of poor quality, it is ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE IN THIS FORUM TO USE THAT TERM. Cheers ??

Re: Mating APC 3.5 with APC 2.92 connectors
Hi, unless you do some very critical work and need to see 50dB of matching... :) I'd say it will not matter in practical terms. I have never "seen" the transition in normal work? And never directly mate SMA and 2.92. The tolerances of SMA are so high, it might damage the 2.92 (esp. female).

The conclusion on SMA is that there¡¯s too much variability on SMA to make any correction worthwhile. A google search of SMA/2.92 mm might get the paper.

Re: No IF latch when input 1G signal into HP 5350B
¿ªÔÆÌåÓý
Dear Askild
Thanks for your help ! I am reading service manual now . And one 26.5Ghz spectrum analyzer and one 500Mhz oscillascope are on my hand .? So i think i will check the power ,signal ?according to the manual step by step .
---- Replied Message ----
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.)

Mating APC 3.5 with APC 2.92 connectors
Hi,
I know that APC 3.5mm and APC 2.92mm connectors mechanically mate. What I would like to know: What is the electrical impact of doing so? Background: I had the chance to measure some 3,5mm DUTs on a PNA-X up to 34GHz. But there was only a 2.92mm cal kit available. How much trust can I put into the thus obtained measurements? Thanks, Tom DG8SAQ |

thank you again Joel ON4LJ |

Re: HP 3457A FET Transistors
Nice! I recently got one of those, quite by accident, along with the rest of the components for that interferometer system. It's really neat stuff.

Re: Video Information for the Wiki
Hi Zentronics
IMO, I am against it; but, if you can do it, I think anyone should be able to do it, as well.? Some of the reason for that is... well... YouTubers make money... from video views, and the rest of us posting here don't.? I think if the list is going to be monitized; then that should benefit the list.? One could argue that the members proposal does benefit the list; but, that's an argument I haven't seen. Maybe the List should have it. (Maybe the Mods will decide.) Please let me know what you all think. Best regards and wishes. Roy |

Re: SCC 1906-0231
It is CR19, part of the 5-volt rectifier circuit in the power supply assembly A22.? The HP description for part number 1906-0231 is ¡°DIODE-CT-RECT 200V 15A.¡±? ? Looks like a fairly simple device to substitute with discrete diodes except that the high current rating might take some thermal consideration unless you can measure the actual current in that circuit and determine if the total current draw is small enough so as to? use them without any heat sinking. ? If you have only lost one leg of the diode pair it shouldn¡¯t be too difficult to determine pin out with an ohmmeter.? From the way the schematic is drawn it looks like the case is the common between the two diodes. ? Varo and a few other manufacturers were well known for their ¡°creative packaging¡± of some of their devices.? This apparently was one of them. ? A portion of the schematic is attached. ? Greg |
