Re: Tek CT-6 current probe
I have successfully made a CT-6 replacement by taking apart an ethernet transformer (Bourns SM51108), cutting off the old windings and winding 10 turns of thin wire on the toroid.
This transformer

Re: TDS744A flicking
I have not read all the other responses so apologies if this is a repeat.
I owned a 744 once with the same hiccup behavior. The CRT driver circuit was bad. You report that you have (had) good VGA from

Re: TDS3034 upgrade
BW upgrade works equally well, either via GPIB or Network.

TDS3034 upgrade
Short question: Is the BW upgrade on a TDS3034 only possible with GPIB or is ethernet also possible?

Re: Tek 453
That doesn't make sense? Show the display with the calibrator as input. Set trigger to Auto.

Re: Tek CT-6 current probe
Yup, a balun (CM choke) could be in the rather long section of the mechanical mounting structure between the small core and the cable connection. It would help with CMRR.

Re: VintageTEK demo boards are back
Joe, the board seems very simple to build. If the processor was programmed is there any reason we can't assemble it?
Pretty sure we have the skills and tools to succeed!
And it seems it would take a

Re: 2430A no display
Followed the SM instructions for 'No Display' but haven't made any real progress, other than getting a dot to appear on the screen (as opposed to merely glowing off-screen) by adjusting the R587

So the flicker only shows up at slower sweep speeds it goes away as I slow the time base down.

Re: Tek CT-6 current probe
Hi all,
In addition to the obvious current transformer, there’s likely to be a balun, to make the probe less sensitive to electric (capacitive) coupling.
Thats’ probably in the longer tail, away

Re: unresponsive 492; possible memory issue
Check the CPU's reset line. It's driven by an optocoupler on the power
supply board, as I recall, and the resistor that drives the LED side of the
optocoupler can open up.

Hello everyone,
First of all, I apologize for being absent from the forum for so long.
Some time ago, I ordered the capacitors and have already replaced them. However, I made a mistake: instead of

Re: VintageTEK demo boards are back
If you go to our website and search for demo board, you find the description. eBay listings disappear when sold out.

Re: VintageTEK demo boards are back
Here is the link to the board description. It contains a link to a zip file that has some instructions, a Digikey BOM, schematic, and hex file. I assume the hex file is to load the ATMEGA328P.

Re: VintageTEK demo boards are back
Given the fact that these 25 boards were sold out rapidly I'd assume there is demand for the next 250 boards rather than the next 25! I hope I will be quick enough next time! Thanks to you volunteers

Re: VintageTEK demo boards are back
Please point to where this demo board is described. What does it do? I could not find it on the Tek museum website.When you say? "Watch the store," what store? Do you mean the Tek Museum eBay store?

Re: VintageTEK demo boards are back
We have inventory for another set of 25 and will begin building. Watch the store. We didn't expect this amount of demand and have a lot of shipping to tend to this week.

That should work. You can experiment with different cores easily and see how they measure up. Ed
