Wavetek 3510B/3520

[Slayer666]

Hello eevblog I am new here and I was wondering if anyone has a wavetek 3510b or a 3520 signal generator.I am looking for the eprom dumps/firmware,preferably the 3520 I screwed up on reprogramming the EPROMs  any help would be awesome

[Slayer666]

And there is also a website called bitsavers.org that you can upload your eprom dumps in case anyone is interested.thanks again

ko4bb.com has manuals for those units, but not ROMs.

Yeah I have the service manuals for them on cd from Artek manuals but seems like the firmware is impossible to find

What is the difference between a 3510 and a 3510b? I've got a working 3510, and 2 parts/repair 3510s I've never powered on. Don't know if they're Bs or not.

Would a 3510 ROM be helpful?

I believe the difference is internally not a hole lol of difference ,the b version is more identical too the 3520.If you look on the back of the unit it will say on the model and serial number tag what version it is.im not sure if the original 3510 firmware would work on the B version

Well i guess I’ll have to just buy another one to get the eprom dumps

I can give you a regular 3510 dump, if you tell me how to do it. And if there's any chance of it being useful to you.

Thanks for your reply, you would need a eeprom reader/programmer to read the firmware off of each chip.each chip would have to be removed from the unit and plugged into the reader/programmer one at a time, it’s a confusing task if you’ve never done it before, hope this helps somewhat.
Thanks Dusty
