I'll post a screen shot on the EEVBLOG thread I created as the fault in this case is different, and is common to all channels. David |

Sadly I got no further - and without a CLIP I think there's little hope.

I know that a CLIP for the THS7xxA handhelds is out there, but AFAICT nothing of that sort exists for the TDS3000 series. David -----Original Message-----

I was thinking about this occasionally (I'm also working on a TDS 3000). If the pins you accidentally shorted were some outputs, you can consider that the damaged part is the one you speak about; but if some were inputs then the damage might involve the source of signal for those pins. Without schematic it's impossible to say what is where; worst case scenario is to consider that both situations are true and damage is not only at that device. Sorry to bring this up like this; I believe you lost faith anyway (unless you have found something we don't know yet). And, related to this, has someone tried to clean the main board of a TDS3000 with something else than IPA that TEK recommends? Comes to mind times when we cleaned TDS500 boards with Simple Green...
