Tektronix 2465B - Help with RAM cloning
fichamba:
Hi everybody:
I've just received a new Dallas DS1225Y +150 just to make a backup of the one inside my Tek 2465B. I have 2 programmers (I normally use the standard GX-4x4). I extracted the data from the original Dallas chip, created a .bin file, and copied into the new chip. In spite of this, when I install the new chip inside the scope, I have 4 errors. The scope starts up, but it does not show the text lines correctly. In the original Dallas chip It doesn't mark the speed (+150). Also, it has no "pin 1" marking. Was bought in Italy.
Any ideas will be appreciated.
TIA

Unfamilira with any NVRAM prog except the notorious Chinese MiniPro XGecu.
Beware of pulls, rebrand, old NVRAM. Mouse/DK are reliable sources.
If the scope is in CAL, the image is useful.
If not, or if the image is curropted/lost a recalivbbration may be needed.
See many long theread in EEVBLOG, esp "2465B teardown" 79 pages.
Suggest to mirro your screens, error messages, here and to groups.io: Tektronix and Tektronix2
Bon chance

Try reading the chip again to see if the data is the same. You can use a diff utility to compare them.

What is the date code on your new chip?
If you didn't buy it from an official supplier, you could have gotten anything....

Today Spain is on holydays, but tomorrow I will go to the lab and look to make everything you had said: trying the data, and take a pic of the "new" Dallas IC (I suspect a lot about it).
I also looked in Digikey, and find out one chip in stock which seems to be fully compatible with the original one (as I saw in one thread; one user was able to clone it):

Of course, thanks to you all for sharing your knowledge and ideas. I will keep you informed.
