Default Re: HP Part Numbers

HP part numbers.
Picking up the hint from Humber888, I attach my list of commercial equivalents. I collected this some years ago, mainly for transistors and diodes when I was working on HP oscilloscopes. It wants to be read with the later Bench Briefs lists.
It raises the problem of parts specially selected from the commercial versions. As with David Radio Wrangler's comment about 2N3866 seleted = 1854-0247. It seems better to use the nearest appropriate part and accept a working machine which does not quite meet the proper performance is always better than one which does not work at all.
I admire these perfectionists who want the exact equivalent 50 years afterwards.
