Re: Snubber capacitors
One more possibility for the failures in the 2465x scopes.? The inrush thermistors are effective only when they are cold.? Turning off and immediately back on means there will be inrush current.?

Re: Snubber capacitors
Gentlemen Thank you all so much. I have learnt so much stuff about a subject about which I knew almost nothing. Important points: SMPS does not have inductive kick, therefore a capacitor across the

Re: 2215A LVPS repair
No idea about FET temperature, as I have no way to measure temperatures yet ! A thermocouple for my DMM and a simple IR "gun" are on my list of things to buy, but the thing is sooooo long, no idea

Re: Snubber capacitors
Ed makes a good point on AC power push-push switches. When they become sluggish it is a problem. Replace them if possible. Cleaning with IPA may help but may just contaminate the PCB. One thing that

Re: 2215A LVPS repair
Hi Vincent, I will wait for the proper parts, but after the test of the transformer I wanted some confirmation I was on the right track. Question: do you have an idea of the temperature of the FET in

Re: 2215A LVPS repair
Hi Leo, Glad the scope is back to life, however as you noticed... trying to use salvaged parts that don't quite fit the bill, is a waste of your time as the scope only half works... overheating as you

Re: Snubber capacitors
I have watched this thread from the beginning - lots of good points and info. Here are some observations that tie the paths of snubbing, switch arcing, and relay response, and may indicate the true

Re: 464-466 w/dm44
And the DM44 mod kit says B050102-up so it should be OK. Obviously the correct info is missing in the RPR. /H?kan

So far as I know, I don't need any. The post was mostly for Tam's benefit. I'm a severe technogeek who has been obsessed with all the things there are to be done and all ways there are to do them

As did working with a 10 Henry choke back 25+ years ago for me.? Transistors kept dying when I switched off the power, and when I had my finger on the wrong spot, I instantly knew why!? Zap, a

Re: 464-466 w/dm44
The IC controlled Trigger board as well as other improvements was introduced at SN B200000. The Service manuals 464 / 070-4795-00 and 466 / 070-4796-00 are for B020000 and up. Before that SN the

Re: 464-466 w/dm44
Hello Jim, I owed and restored a 464 with DM44 (now given to a friend) and I don't think there are any other "optional" boards linked to the presence (or absence) of the DM44. The only optional boards
