Re: Trouble Getting Screenshots From Tektronix TDS 754D
Thank for the link to the replacement drive. I re test with a bunch of different floppy disks, even a new sealed one. And it definitely seems like the drive is to blame. I¡¯ll order the replacement

Re: Trouble Getting Screenshots From Tektronix TDS 754D
I second the faulty floppy drive in the scope few of the scopes I've had on the bench were a bit flakey. I recently converted my TDS784D and TDS794D to use the Gotek floppy adapters which work

Re: SC503 -12V power supply
Hi Barry, My comment about 2N2219A vs 2N2219 was: - "A" version is in the Tek replacement recommendation - "A" version fT matches to original Tek part - "A" version has higher Vceo of 40V. Plain

Re: SC503 -12V power supply
Ozan, I see -32.5V across at the output Q7042 was found to be bad when I started several days ago. I did not have one so I used a 2222A temoprarly. I have a couple "2N2219 PBFREE Central

Re: Trouble Getting Screenshots From Tektronix TDS 754D
Assuming you have tried different discs my first choice would be a bad drive, most likely the one in the scope. If you can do GPIB you can get screenshots that way too. /H?kan

Re: Tektronix 2465A... With error code Test 05 Fail 24
Hey John, Did you try the auto DC balance yet? Disconnect any probes or signals from CH1/CH2, then press the input coupling for CH1 and CH2 up at the same time. Wait and see whether this cleans it

BTW, if that's not a secret, can you tell us how much JLCPCB charged you for your CNC'ed part? Thank you.

Re: Tektronix 2465A... With error code Test 05 Fail 24
Well I have replaced the U500 and the scope is triggering just fine. However; when I changes Volts/Div scale without changing the input signal the display jumps off center. If I recenter the

Re: Substitute parts for 12au6s on 575 curve tracer
You can use 6AU6 in place of 12AU6. They have identical characteristic, the only difference being the heater voltage, 12.6 V @ 150 mA for the 12AU6 vs 6.3 V @ 300 mA for the 6AU6. You can compensate

Trouble Getting Screenshots From Tektronix TDS 754D
Hello, I have a TDS754D. Works fine but I¡¯m having trouble getting some simple screenshots out. I used the hardcopy function, export as .bmp mono color and export to floppy. For some reasons it will

Re: Substitute parts for 12au6s on 575 curve tracer
There were actually serious attempts at replacing some tubes with JFET alternatives in very-high-volume applications like telephony (1960s-70s). I think the most well known is Teledyne's "FETRON,"

Re: Substitute parts for 12au6s on 575 curve tracer
Any possibility that a HV MosFet might be substituted ? LND150 Mosfets have been substituted for a different tube ( the 12ax7 ; which is Not the 12au6 discussed herein for the Tek 575) See:

Re: SC503 -12V power supply
Hi Barry, I think you fixed the root cause of why shorting across C-E of Q8051 didn't work. I was expecting to see the same voltage as if Q7042 was removed (+0.6V) but at this point the regulator
