It took a lot of 500-series scopes back in 1964 to bring us the first TV pictures of the lunar surface - see how many you can spot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YL9ObreaOE8 And note all

Hello-- I went to work for a computer company which had a need for isolated AC-switching controls, and as a newly-hired E.E. I was completely unfamiliar with the abilities of the engineering techs. I

Thanks for the clarification and will fix the list. Do you think replacing the 3 High voltage caps too ?? I completely forgot about the X & Y caps will have them and add them to the list.. Does anyone

While the parts list specifies capacitors as electrolytic with the notation "ELCTLT", that applies to *all* electrolytic capacitors including C374 which is actually a 150D series hermetically

(Catching up on old mail...) The actual truth is that the scope triggers just fine from all four channels with the two missing chips as shown in the EEVBlog thread. Obviously that's the first

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.

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
