Hi guys and Merry Christmas to all of you!
Start before some days with restoring my new HP 3456A (I have one repaired and working). Get this one from Ebay UK in non working condition.
First exchange all caps in the power supply and all is OK with it.
It start with -3.0000 self test and I find a bad U13 is in inguard logic board. Good power supply to it, good clock but no any signatures on the board. Make a MCS-48 adapter and find my old Willem Programmer (lose some hours to find the programmer in the old cartoon boxes with old toys). Thanks to MadTux for this post (
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/repair/hp-3456a-inguard-8048-up-firmware/msg1136747/#msg1136747) and firmware sharing. Flash 2 new 8748 for testing and install it. Both work fine and now all signatures are OK.
Now test go from -3 to -4 and I continue to find the problems. Following the service manual I come to the A/D analog part (digital looks good - chekced all Signatures to it and output of the digital part to analog A/D part). I replace U409 with new one (have some doubt for it). Putting both (working and not working) 3456a on my desk to self test #4 (test + 4 +store + 5) and grounding the A/D input (J29 to GND position) make some pictures of the TP402 oscilograme and post it here. The integrator going always up and I can't find the problem for that. Will accept all ideas before to start to exchange the opamps U405 and U406 or some fets. I do some checks and I think U405 is bad but ask here before to exchange it - there have some mV difference in the input. Something else, can I exchange LF351 with some modern opamp for testing - I have no this one on hands.
In this test mod left one is bad and right is good one. It is with J35 to non Run position or it show only OL. The top one oscilogram is for bad unit (the output of the intergator) and the bottom one is for good unit. Just for reference I add the picture of the AD schematic.
Thank you for all ides in advance!
EDIT: Some update - I exchange U405 and U406 - it is the same. Same as before, so U405 and U406 I think is good. Will Exchange both later with what I have on hands to confirm for it.
