Re: Tek History book
Thanks for the pointers, Dave! If I can find these, they ought to get me bouncing in my seat :-) Actually, there is something out there that's close to an engineering analysis, but it mostly covers

HELP! NEEDED ON 2246
I have a Tektronix 2246 100 MHz Oscilloscope powered this unit up and attempted to set the calibration. It indicates that it is trying to calibrate knob adjustment and to turn all knobs CW. I can't

Re: Tektronix 545B (V)
Hello! Thanks to both of you... but my message was from September, I think, and the oscilloscope was fixed back then ;-) It was a capacitor, as you suggest. Merry Christmas! JOSE

Re: Tektronix 545B (V)
Snips: I'm looking at the schematic of the 545A, and I suspect that the 545B has the same 350V supply. The (silicon) bridge rectifier feeds the 125uF reservoir capacitor through two ten-ohm 1W

Re: Tek History book
Hello David, I'd be interested too. But in the meantime, there are some interesting chapters in a couple of books edited by Jim Williams: 'Analog Circuit Design : Art, Science and Personalities' and

Re: Capacitance standardizers
Hi Stan and Miroslav I have a pdf of the 130LC manual which gives instructions on how to make the "inductance standardizer". This is used to calibrate the 300uH range of the S-30 transfer standard. It

Re: Tek History book
I tried to read my copy once. Couldn't finish. It was too sanitized. It said exactly what management wanted it to say, namely, good things about managers. Yawn. I wanted engineering stuff and true

Re: Input RC
Joe, It is more or less backwards from the way you ask the question. The scope input C was determined by the available technology and design skill at the time. Reducing the C at the scope input has a

Re: 2 misc tek bits FS
Hi Peter, The first item, VP-1, is a "voltage pick-off". You insert it in series with a 50 ohm cable and plug a P6056 or P6057 voltage probe tip into the little hole in the plastic part. This allows
