Re: A Tale of Two 7D14s
Now I'm not sure.? I'll have to go look and find out.? Was using a TDS540A, which should go to 500 Mhz.? I can switch to an active probe and see what goes on. Back after a bit. Thanks. Harvey

Re: tek 577 non linear behavior in both vertical and horizontal deflection amplifiers
Rogerio, R110/1/2/37 are stressed at 1/2W. Mouser has MFR200 types in stock, if you do not have 1 or 2W in stock. The 2W Mouser has is cheaper than the 1W types and the additional power capacity will

Re: A Tale of Two 7D14s
Perhaps input frequency is too high for your scope to show the sharp edges but otherwise sine wave is not expected at U329 inputs, it should look like a square wave. Do you see the correct waveform at

Thank you for teh replies. My board is the new model (670-4126-00). I have measured all the resistors, but without desoldering one leg and they all seem ok. I am suspicious of S1125 (beam finder),

Re: OT Hg bat corrosion
Mercury batteries used mercuric (II) oxide. Mercuric oxide is toxic and can be absorbed through inhalation as well as exposure to bare skin. Not nearly as bad as dimethymercury (one drop even with a

Re: OT: PID motor control
I guess it depends on your motor and mechanical system. Most of the time you can't instantaneously change the motor speed so you want the speed to ramp up to your desired speed and then ramp down to a

Re: Intermittent TEK 475A issue
Jim, Check CR1372 and CR1379 for leakage. If leaky, replace with 1N4937. When one or more are leaky, it will give a too bright trace like you have. Also check the 22 meg resistor. It is likely out of
