Re: Again a 7854 power supply beast to be repaired...
In the archive there is another document "7k_PS_currents" describing typical loads, also scanned by Zenith. In my case the total load was 50W. I connected a number of power resistors to the various LV

Re: Again a 7854 power supply beast to be repaired...
Hi Max, From my own experiments with a 7704A SMPS I remember that it needed a much heavier load for proper operation. I tried with loads on the HV outputs and also with loads on the raw rectified

Re: 577 Curve tracer ringing CRT and noisy step generator
The "filter on" position is useless except for very low sweep speeds or manual scanning - not normal operation. I found the same sort of thing when I was refurbishing the switches (Deoxit-treatment)

Re: 7S12 with S-4 and S-53 troubleshooting
Hi Nenad, I tend to disagree with your analysis. The feedback is not primarily intended to keep the base of Q36 at a constant DC level. Within limits Q36 doesn't care. The purpose is to have the
