Re: selenium rectifiers in a 317
Hi Tom, The 10 Ohm resistors you see on the power supply schematics are really fuses to protect the power supplies from shorts in other parts of the scope. The series dropping resistors in a silicon

Re: Thanks to all (P6015A)
That is entirely the correct decision! If you had said otherwise, I would have offered to take it off your hands ;-) My P6015 came with a half full can of freon, which has been in the fridge for the

Re: P6015A HV Probe: Applications?

Re: P6015A HV Probe: Applications?
This needs to be put in context. The peak of ozone depelting CFC's was in the mid 80's, when R12 was used in all domestic and automotive refrigerators worldwide. In addition, other CFC's were used as

Thanks to all (P6015A)
Thanks to all who provided insight on the P6015A HV probe. After due consideration, and considering it's one of the newer type that uses a no-refill-required silicone compound instead of fluorocarbon

Re: P6015A HV Probe: Applications?
If you can use it with a DMM it gives a very high input resistance (probably about a Gigohm?) and with the sensitivity of even basic DMMs will measure 200 volts full scale with resolution down to 0.1

Does anyone out there have a front end channel module for a TDS380 scope??? The schematic shows a AT206/B2565 module. It's a hybrid part. The input channel will measure -5.3vdc on the most sensititive

Re: P6015A HV Probe: Applications?
The ones with the freon fill are P6015s, and the newer ones with the silicone gel fill are P6015As. Without freon, the P6015s are rated to 13kV. Otherwise, the rating is 20kVDC/40kV peak. It's 75MHz,
