Tektronix tool box, 016-0362-02 in the 5000-series o'scopes
Good Day,
I know that this is a bit silly, but I could not resist to please myself with a Tektronix storage compartment or tool box, part number 016-0362-02.
This is a somewhat interesting accessory

Re: Another Dallas Chip Question
I have no experience with the Tek TDS series scopes but I have lost one set of data from a Dallas chip in an HP 3458A.
I have three of these meters and have removed all three Dallas chips from each

Re: Another Dallas Chip Question
More info please. What programmer are you reading and writing on? What IC equivalent? Unless you of course have a programmer that can specifically do the Dallas DS1644. What do you do to compensate

Re: 2465 no traces, no OSD
That is the normal sawtooth of a switching power supply.? As long as its low in amplitude you can ignore it and come back later.
That sounds like the microprocessor clock.? 40 mv is small enough to

Re: Another Dallas Chip Question
I have replaced enough of the Dallas parts on TDSXXX scopes that I think I can add my .02 worth. My best recommendation to replace these parts is to purchase a good desoldering tool such as a Hakko

Re: tek 465 faulty again!
Does anything in the -8 volt circuitry get hot after running for a while? Sounds like something heating up and drawing excess current and causing the supply to go into protection mode.

Re: Another Dallas Chip Question
I had no problems removing the two Dallas NVRAMs in my 2440 using just a Weller
DS227 vacuum desoldering tool. They practically fell off the printed circuit
board. I actually bought the DS227

Re: 1A4 Plug-In "Invert Switch" - Tektronix Part No. 260-0723-00
I will have to keep this in mind. The 1A4 is one of the few plug-ins which
would make my 547 regularly useful to me.

Re: 1A4 Plug-In "Invert Switch" - Tektronix Part No. 260-0723-00
@ snapdiode: True, I won't know any more about a new one, but at least if I destroy my existing plug-in while trying to fix it, I'll still have another one to use ;-)

Re: 1A4 Plug-In "Invert Switch" - Tektronix Part No. 260-0723-00
Well, you won't know any more about a new 1A4. I think 1A4s are a high-strung plugin, there's a lot that can go wrong in there.
I find the assembly of the input attenuators is fragile, it's just

Re: tek 465 faulty again!
If my calculations are correct then a "shortcut" output of -2 V (reported previously) would correspond to about 0.5 A output current. This current drop is due to foldback current limiting.

Re: Another Dallas Chip Question
The best way to remove any chip on a heavy board is to heat the chip and surrounding area with a heat gun just prior to using the desoldering tool. Now, too much heat gun can damage the board, but

Re: 2465 no traces, no OSD

I checked this out again, and it's well inside spec. The ripple is "ugly" though, e.g. there are sharp spikes at ~20/40kHz. Assuming I get it working, I'll be planning to do the recap.

Re: Another Dallas Chip Question
I do belive there is a suggestion to not to try to read it for 24 hours after desoldering.
In some other Tek scopes, it recommended to unsolder a certain pin LAST, because it's the most massive.?
