Tinhead, thanks for the resistor change information. Your attached trace photo shows the difference.

Was thinking that it maybe easier to add parallel resistors instead of replacing resistors to get the 200MHz resistor values. Lucky in that the 200MHz values are all lower than the values for 100MHz or 60MHz.

Input resistors (channels and ext trigger)

    200MHz - 22R 0.1%
    100MHz - 33R 0.1% Parallel with 66R 0.1%
     60MHz  - 33R 0.1% Parallel with 66R 0.1%

Compensation resistors (channels only)

    200MHz - 10R 0.1%
    100MHz - 12R 0.1% Parallel with 60R 0.1%
     60MHz  - 12R 0.1% Parallel with 60R 0.1%


OpAmp resistors (4 x per channel)

    200MHz - 280R 0.1%
    100MHz - 301R 0.1% Parallel with 4K 0.1%
     60MHz  - 365R 0.1% Parallel with 1.2K 0.1%

OpAmp arrays (2 x per channel)

    200MHz - 33R 1%
    100MHz - 39R 1% Parallel with 215R 1%
     60MHz  - 47R 1% Parallel with 111R 1%

Trigger stage

    200MHz - 82R 0.1%
    100MHz - 100R 0.1% Parallel with 455R 0.1%
     60MHz  - 100R 0.1% Parallel with 455R 0.1%

Problem is where can you purchase these resistor values in 0.1% and 1%? Do you know what physical size the SMD resistors are.

Tinhead, what equipment do you need to calibrate the oscilloscope when the above resistors have been changed. What is the procedure. Would the normal oscilloscope push button calibration do the job? I don't know much about what the calibration is other than you only have the power cable connected to calibrate.

Just arrived:

System status shows:

model: DSO5102B
serial T1G/008xxxxxx
soft version: 2.06.3 (110118.0)
hard version: 0x555583e8

First touch... better than expected. I know it is better than Rigol but... I did not expect so much. (yes price is different and it is maybe not very clever compare these.)



Example -3dB point well over 170MHz.. if reference is 1MHz and level 300mVp-p.  (yes I need later check my test lab accuracy.. maybe my HP old workhorse signal gen need careful "flatness calibration" over frequency band 100k to 2G .. I do not trust now...)  it looks like there (in hantek oscilloscope analog front end) is littlebit "M" shape freq response and it makes some special corner shape with fast rising pulse edge.. but... not bad.. but all this need now lot of work for tests.

bad idea, this will increase the caapacitance.

Do you know what physical size the SMD resistors are.
mouser is haveing alle of them,
22.1R 0.1% or 22R 1% in 0603
280R 0.1% in 0603
10R 0.1% in 0603
82R 1% or 82.5R 0.1% in 0603
33R x 4 1% array in 1206


what equipment do you need to calibrate the oscilloscope when the above resistors have been changed. What is the procedure. Would the normal oscilloscope push button calibration do the job? I don't know much about what the calibration is other than you only have the power cable connected to calibrate.

the one you don't have (400MHz analog or DSO to compare results, 1kHz to 250MHz square/sinus generator, good set of RG316 cables, active and passive probes) but at least a 1kHz and 10kHz signal generator with stable amplitude, true rms dmm to measure the amplitude
and some luck.

The compensation can be changed by the cap value (red marked), the measured amplitude must match the real signal amplitude (square and sinus),
you will of course have to wait at leat 30mins before the DSO would be warm enough and after each step (1 and 10kHz signal) do self-calibration
and compare results again.

Still, i do not recommend to play with compensation without knowledge about and good equipment. For sure you might have luck
and no compensation will be necessary, but i would not bet on that.

Attached the official 2.6.3 for Tekway DST1102B, so you can update your scope to latest vfw version and add english language.

(Forgive me if you've already answered these before.)

Q1. Can I load v2.06.3 onto my Hantek 5102B?
Q2. What's the improvements in v2.06.3 from v2.06.2? (i.e. Is it worth upgrading?)

Yes, first I need check my calibration generators and sinewave generators calibration..

5x is not enough.

If test full specs temp range, humidity range, pressure range it need more... and also repeating so that can make some opinion about random variations... haha. (yes I do not...)

no, you can't.
Once again, because of the hack protection the firmware is now per model, so each manufacturer and each model
firmwares are different (well the update scripts, if you decryt it and copy manally the DSO.exe and other evt. changed files then it will works for you on any DSO)

Q2. What's the improvements in v2.06.3 from v2.06.2? (i.e. Is it worth upgrading?)

more measurment pre-setups, pass/fail, digital filters, nice recording option and other things, but also some new bugs :)
They should be fixed very soon so maybe is a good idea to wait fir the new fw.

I did posted these Tekway fw's just because of the chinese fw version of "nukie's" DSO.

hehe to be very honest i do check each every function and setting after each fw upgrade, HanTekway is doing great job improving
things but sometimes they creating more bugs than improvements :)

hi Mirgo,
Ni shi zhong guo ren ba ? ;D ( ::) Are you chinese ?  ;))

No sorry, I'm from germany and I did not register just to advertise for the chinese shop. I've been following this topic for some weeks now and I just wanted to give my advice for anybody that is afraid of ordering from china. I know you sell the hanteks from france too, but anybody may select his/her prefered source and there are trustworthy sources in china too (not all of them, but they exist).

I scanned the Chinese panel and replaced the characters with English.

I haven't tried it on for size yet, but it looks close!

It's very good but missed out 'PROBE CHECK' decal

Can you get these made in the same material as the original ?

Original Panel changed....

tinhead - "Khz" to "KHZ"
yachtronics - added "PROBE CHECK"

I was thinking you could use 'Water-Slide Decal Paper' to make a new front panel, I haven't done this myself so I'm not sure if it'll work!

This is my Tekway DST1102B if anyone's interested

My External trigger measures 22R vs the 33R channel input resistors

*Copy from tinhead post, updated with my scope hardware details*

Input resistors (channels and ext trigger)
    100MHz - 33R 0.1% channels
    100MHz - 22R ext trigger

Compensation resistors (channels only)
    100MHz - 12R 0.1%

OpAmp resistors (4 x per channel)
    100MHz - 301R 0.1%

OpAmp arrays (2 x per channel)
    100MHz - 39R 1%

Trigger stage
    100MHz - 100R 1%
    100MHz - 466.5R !!!

maybe you on wrong place? I mean this one (red marked) ...

Btw, Tekway is as always clean soldered, i wish Hantek will learn to soldr too ... almost every Hantek was not that clean.

Sorry, I measured again it's 100R. All good!

Tips for all users, it's good to connect the dso to a UPS battery backup to prevent mains interruption during firmware upgrades.

For those who are interested in recapping the unit, here's the list of caps

SMPS (13)
C6 - 100uF 400v
C8 - 47uF 50v
C11 - 1000uF 16v
C14 - 1000uF 16v
C15 - 22uF 16v
C17 - 2200uF 16v
C18 - 1000uF 25v
C19 - 3300uF 10v
C20 - 1000uF 16v
C22 - 330uF 6.3v
C23 - 1000uF 16v
C25 - 470uF 25v
C36 - 100uF 35v

Main PCB (16)
C512 - 220uF 16v
C514 - 220uF 16v
C636 - 220uF 16v
C675 - 1000uF 10v
C676 - 220uF 16v
C715 - 220uF 16v
C912 - 220uF 16v
C913 - 1000uF 10v
C934 - 220uF 16v
C935 - 1000uF 10v
C936 - 220uF 16v
C942 - 100uF 35v
C943 - 470uF 25v
C944 - 1000uF 10v
C948 - 1000uF 10v
C949 - 1000uF 10v

:)

you don't have to measure, just read what on the resistor, they are EIA code marked:

Mine looks fine, but not proper washed, still have un-washed rosin/flux on board, I did wash by myself. I believe all boards are made by Tekway. Slightly diff quality, guess due to diff batch and little adjustment of production line(wave soldering). Hantek's 5000B series Just OEM by tekway, Hantek load custom firmware only. This is quite normal in China now.

Hi PsI-On,

that a good job you did on the English front panel. I may need it, but I haven't decided where I'll purchase my oscilloscope from, I'm waiting for some prices before I choose.

A great Front panel, thanks.

I've made some great front panel labels from A4 size stick on labels:

http://www.kalex.net.au/timesaver-price-list

Page 15: C3897/A4 10 SHEETS SILVER LABEL $27.50

I used a colour laser printer and stick on clear book covering to protect the print. Kalex also have a can of spray on protection. The silver label colour is simular to the colour of aluminium. Looks great.

so just dw the wav and let's play left+right channels to ch1+ch2 in XY mode. Is not really good, but still better as Rigol.
I haven't tested with persistency on, so it could be even better setup.

The XY mode on HanTekway isn't really good, especially noice level - so there is definitely room for improvement.
 
Bingo, with 40kpts memory settings is much better, no dropped frames. The 4kpts as in my video was not enough.
