Re: Sony/Tektronix 370 : Gray Encoders unexpected value jumps
Forgive my error in terminology. It is not grey as in color, it is Gray named for the author of the patent who gave it the name Reflected Binary.

Re: OT: The analog computer lives on
I recently bought a “hybrid” - a slide rule with an electronic calculator
on the back. These were made by Faber-Castell but it was not long before
they were eclipsed by the electronic calculators

Re: Tek 2465 power supply cycling
I found out how to send pictures of the 'scope screens
This link shows TP75 on schematic 9 in yellow and the collector of Q1062 in
Purple. 10 uS/div and 5v/div
The 'scope ground is on Ref 1 just

Re: Tek 2465 power supply cycling
Thanks Mark, I replaced R1020 although it was not bad. The troubleshooting
for that circuit using a power supply says the switch should activate from
20 to 25 volts. Mine latches at 17.5 volts. I

Re: Tek 2465 power supply cycling
Peter,
R1020 is known to go bad. That should be 2W. Make sure to get a resistor that is about 15mm long. Some 2W resistors are 3.68 x 8.72mm which is smaller than a 1/2W. C1034 is originally a

I checked the Inverter Drive power supply and it works for seconds until something shuts the drive off.
The power supply draws normal current for up to 5 seconds and the pulses appear on TP75 then

I posted this once but it did not show up.
I put a power supply in from another 'scope. It starts right away. The problem is definitely in the power supply.
The power supply runs out of the 'scope

That will be a nice scope once you get it cleaned up and repaired. Congratulations on finding one. Careful, though, as they're addictive.

Re: Sony/Tektronix 370 : Gray Encoders unexpected value jumps
As all three grey-code encoders are multiplexed and all three are exhibiting large jumps, look for a failure in the components that are common to all three (e. g. selector, bus driver, diode,

Re: Sony/Tektronix 370 : Gray Encoders unexpected value jumps
Yes, you found the right info. The WE document shows in fig. 6 an example bounce of 500 us, and in chapter the 3.2 calculation the specified bounce time is 10ms. That is also the value I normally use.

Re: Sony/Tektronix 370 : Gray Encoders unexpected value jumps
It will not be dissipated by the Hi-Z of the input, but by the *Lo-Z* of the HC139 *output* transistor which selects the corresponding switch.

Re: Sony/Tektronix 370 : Gray Encoders unexpected value jumps
I've never seen bouncing that short, but you may have excellent bouncing encoders. Most people use 10..100nF and that will hurt.
