I had always wanted one of these but they were really expensive. I also had read about them in this forum and EEVBlog where there were a few horror stories about the delicacy of the hall sensor probe

Here is the list of Electrolytic caps in a Tek 2215.. I am working on finding replacement caps from a single supplier like Mouser or Digikey..The list is caps only and will be adding the rest of the

I saw some comments on this and wanted to add a personal story - even adults sometimes only learn through experience. One day my PCs SMPS failed. I got another since I didn't want to be off the air

Set your oscilloscope to line triggering. If using a 7A22 or DSO, use the high frequency cutoff or averaging to remove the high frequency ripple.

Page 5-3 of the Service Manual.  This is the Section on "Adjustment Procedure" and is the first step of that procedure.  To: TekScopes@... Sent: Monday, May 30, 2016 4:01 PM Subject:

Pg 5-3 in the service manual: voltage tolerance switch_ripple (though line caused ripple must be much lower) +10V 0.1% 100mV +87V 2% 80mV +42.4V 2% 80mV +15V 1.5% 15mV D+5V 3% 150mV A+5V 1.5%

Can anyone point me to the ripple specs on the 2465? Charlie Conger

Is there an option to set 11403 to factory default? I have been playing with colors a bit, but now I don't like where I ended up and I want to return to factory settings. I have the user manual, but

Sorry for the OT post - but I figured you all would be my best shot :) I'm looking for a complete set of schematics for the Acme PS2L-1000 1KW active load. I have seen the ones

I've just been working on one of those, on and off for about a month. Check the value of the series R: R149 18 Ohms; I found the similar one for the other ranges, R162 had gone up in value from a

Hi, I just got a PG502 pulse generator. After I fixed a bad solder joint on one of the pots, everything seems to be good, , except for the 250MHz setting. It only goes up to 200MHz. All other

Hi, The way i found the easiest to replace the caps was to suck as much solder from the hole as possible, then use a flat side cutter plier to cut the leads of the caps right at the level of the

All, To ask a point of clarification, by jitter do we mean substantial “I can see this moving back and forth” or do we mean text fuzziness, or are they one in the same if the jitter is high or

General DC voltmeters are very slow compared to even general purpose operational amplifiers used as comparators. Some have a minimum and maximum peak hold mode but usually even that will be too

The funny thing is that even though the voltmeter is slow, it should be giving some sort of average. And the voltages printed on the service manual are also sort of an average. I was testing the

Does your relay click after 30-45 seconds of warm up? The relay in my 531 would click, but had dirty contacts that prevented the relay from latching on. I fixed it for a dollar - gently cleaned the

If by unregulated output you mean +6.71 volts at the collector of Q879, it has no effect on the +5 volt output unless it falls too low. Q879 is completely controlled by U870B under normal

The schematic marks the -8 volt regulated output as -8.0, -8.6, and -8.37 at different locations. Calculating it from R265 and R368 indicates that the -8 volt sense line should be exactly -8.00

That divider that generates the ref voltage for the current limit seems spot on. I calculated the expected voltage based on the resistors that were there and the voltages seen at the unregulated
