HP XY Display PSU Query


 

Hi,

I have an HP XY display without the matching external power supply and so Im planning to hook up my own. The input power connector is labelled as shown in the picture attached.?

My interpretation is that the pins with an ¡°R¡± suffix means ¡°return¡±. So ¡°+250R¡± is the return for the ¡°+250 IN¡±. Likewise for the 21V .


Is that the right way to read this?

thanks

tony

That's how I would interpret it. Can you find a schematic?

Odd, though, that there's a +15V and -15V, but no ground. Are +21R and +250R connected to each other on the board, meaning could that constitute a circuit-wide ground?

Possible, but it can also be that there is a resistor between the raw input and the pin marked R (either for current-limiting or filtering purposes, or both). I've seen that use of R far more often than to indicate a ground return. You can use an ohmmeter to measure between the IN and corresponding R pin to see if there is a low-value resistance between them.

That is how I also read it.

Hi Dave,

No schematics, no pictures, nothing - this XY model (1336A) seems to be a bit of a ghost.

I have not traced the +/-15V circuit yet (or indeed any of the others!)? - that's a job for the weekend coming. I had assumed that the chassis was the ground for the 15V circuits.

Would the 250/21V rails need specific returns if they were (for some reason) AC supplies?

Tony?


 

It looks like the 1336A received a revision to extend the input range for medical use and became the 1336S. There is more info available about the S rev.?

Here is a spec sheet

There are a few details in the march 1986 HP Bench Briefs.

VectorVGA has a scan of a doc listing other models in the 13xx range. None of the links work anymore so here is a copy of the important bits.

And a neat but of trivia, the 1336A was the hero display in the movie War Games. Do you want to play thermo nuclear war?

Hi Tony,

If you assume that the 1336A and 1336S are similar, then maybe the schematics for the latter can be used as a rough guide, at the very least. A quick look at the connectors supports your initial guess that "R" stands for return.

If you haven't downloaded the 1336S's manual, take a look at it and see if it's at all helpful.

Thanks Tom - I saw the spec sheet and was intrigued by the high definition of these (albeit quite small) displays.? I was aware that they had some significance for the movie mentioned :-)

Sadly there does not seem to be a manual of any kind relating to any of the different versions of the 1336 display - other than the spec sheet from various HP catalogues. Or at least my excavations on the internet have not revealed anything.

And it is not in the Artek manual portfolio either.

Internally they have a very different design to the later 1340A displays that I am more familiar with.

Oops, I was mistaken. The 1336S is an external power supply for the 1336A. Does your 1336A have AC and DC inputs?

I think thy is the problem - there is a mil spec JAE connector in the back with pins for the various supply rails. No idea is any of them are AC.

Ah now I understand. You are in luck! Keysight has the operation and service manual for the 1336S which is the 1336P power supply plus a 1336A display. It has a full parts list, schematics and diagrams for both 1336A and S.


The power pin out is:
(Power connector pin/A1J3 motherboard pin)
Pin 1/5 +250VDC
Pin 2/3 +20VDC
Pin 3/1 +15VDC
Pin 4/2 -15VDC
Pin 5/NC Chassis GND
Pin 6/NC Chassis GND
Pin 7/NC Chassis GND
Pin 8/4 GND for +20VDC
Pin 9/6 GND for +250VDC

I hope you are able to get it going!

+250V supply is current limited to 270mA.?
+15V uses an LM317T without a pass transistor so maxes out around 1.5A
-15 uses 79UG1C without pass transistor so maxes out around 1A.?
+20 uses a 21.5V zener driving a 70W Darlington as pass transistor which equates to about 3.25A but probably much less.

Ah! Outstanding. Thank you for the link - that will definitely change this project away ?from having only marginal chance of success!
