content: I bought a DS1052E for about £240 shipped from Batronix in Germany and hacked it straight out of the box (only thing was I got a euro mains lead, but I have plenty of uk ones kicking around). I think this is the cheapest you can get from a good supplier (at the time I bought it anyway, cheapest uk place was £290 odd) and as it's the eu there is no import duty.Price is a bit high imo, Batronix do the DS1102E for £320 odd to the uk. Only issue is you have to send it back to Germany if anything breaks, but I have hacked mine so bye bye warranty! If it goesI'm stuffed

Wanted: Fluke 8502A Opt. 04 (Cal.-Memory) Schematic / Opt. 02 (Ohms Converter) - Page 1
Forum section: electronics / general

timestamp: February 03, 2013, 07:50:39 pm
content: Hello all,recently i got an old Fluke 8502A multimeter. Except for one option, everything works just fine, and i like to do a restoration of the unit, including brightening up the plastics (all yellow/brownish by now). It is also missing one option, the Cal-Memory.So i'm looking for the schematic of the Fluke 8502A calibration memory option (Option -04). In any manual that i could find online that option is not included. While it is listed in the index of section 6, which explains the options and has their schematics, it always goes from -03 to -05, missing the -04 part completely. I already asked a local manuals supplier, but they can't be bothered to look if their version includes that. And i'm surely not going to spend money on a manual that doesn't contain the section i'm looking for.So, does anyone here have the operation/service manual for the 8502A that includes the -04 option? And if so, is there a chance one of you could forward me the (readable) schematic and partlist of that option?Also i'm looking for a -03 option, the Ohms Converter. My unit has one, but it's broken. While i will definitely try to repair it, maybe someone has that option module and no use/need for it. If so, please let me know.Once i have some time to start restoring the unit i'll open a thread in the "Product Reviews, Photos, and Discussion" section with photos and stuff from this unit.Thanks,Chris

content: If you know this Fluke 900, then this is not at comment for you, but if you just think it could be usefull then read on.We got one of this when it was new on the marked back in the 90's.It was to time consuming to work with it, and it was not always correct when its "guessed".When we got a desoldering iron that was working it was much faster just to just to exchange the ICs. (we pluged in a socket).But can you get it at a fair price with all pods (Ours was with more than 25 different), then you have a great deal, the pods can allways be used for other things.

content: Does anyone by chance have the schematics for a Computer Products/Artesyn XL130-3630E power supply? This PSU is used in a few HP scopes.The one I have here has a problem with its single +3.5v rail which only delivers between +1.5v (with load) and +2.5v (without load). No obvious damage is visible (no burnt or blown components). Caps look fine, too.Maybe someone has some schematics, or knows where to get them, please let me know. Also if you know this PSU and this issue sounds familiar.

There are Ultrasonic transducers which send out a pulse and measure the timedelay until it arrives. As you know the distance between the transmitter & receiver, you know the time it will take (because of the speed of sound).The wind accelerates or slows the ultrasonic pulse (depending on the direction) and therefore decreases or increases the time the pulse will take. From that difference compared to the normal running time you can calculate the windspeed (in it's x-y-components)...

content: The 289 has a 50 Ohm (full scale) mode which can resolve down to 1 mOhm, but the real problem with such low resistances is that the probe-to-test point resistance becomes very significant. It also varies a lot with contact pressure and cleanliness, so you can't just expect to zero it out.Your best bet might be to pass a known current through the path you want to measure, then use the meter you already have in voltage mode to explore the voltage drop at various points - ie. do a 4 wire measurement, as already suggested.

I've got a copy of Code Composer Studio up and running, but it doesn't recognize the board even though the software is configured properly.Any chance you still have the EVM Support software?

content: The EVM Support Software was by TI, and contains the basic utilities for testing and configuring the board - but that's a useful link nonetheless, and thankyou!Don't know why TI doesn't seem to carry this on their site - not much use if you haven't already bought a board. Mostly want the board up and running to use with some older DSP books based on it.Somehow managed to pick up trojan.Generic.KDZ.4227 when I went to the page. Bitdefender seems to work much better than McAfee!

content: I'm after a 100MHz - 1GHz amplifier with around 15-20 dB gain. It's to augment my spectrum analyser so it doesn't have to have a large output power but should be reasonably low noise. I'm after either a board or boxed item, not just a chip. If someone has done a layout for a MMIC, that could be a possibility. Maybe someone has a Minicircuits unit sitting on their shelf that they no longer want? Connectors ideally BNC, but SMA or N would be OK.

All I can find online are a few advertisements, such ashttp://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ac60268a829It's a Shimadzu QV-50 spectrophotometer.See pic. Although in that I have the light source, transmission cell and photocell modules removed from the side of the case. It was pretty dirty on the outside. Here it's already cleaned.I'm not yet sure it will be possible to get this working, since there's one missing part in the detector assembly. But I still have some options for finding a spare.Can anyone suggest sources for service/user manuals for scientific gear like this?Man, you'd think with a beautiful and very expensive (for that time) instrument like this, whoever was in charge of it would have bothered to remove the damned D-cell batteries from the battery holder. But no...Fortunately the battery compartment is good old bakelite, with simple contacts, very robust, and easily repaired.And _most_ of the optics is inside an airtight compartment intended to be operated in vacuum. So they seem OK.

Whether this is actually enforced is up to the distributor/manufacturer.An unrealistically high asking price might also scare away potential buyers. I will usually move on rather than see whether the seller will accept a reasonable offer. Just like you will probably ignore Noize's offer rather than make a counter-offer.
