Default Re: Siemens D1052 oscilloscope (Gould DSO 4096).

I am beginning to think that everything is fine with the components, and that only the pots mentioned in the first post needs some fine adjustment...

Noopy, today I will be changing c6 tantalum, as I have no experience in testing them for leakage and i don`t have small alligator/hook clips for inboard current testing....

Changing C6 will be no harm.

Sometimes we see problems where everything works fine...

Somehow replacing c6 with same but new capacitor gave psu higher voltage on unloaded -5v rail than on +5v. Difference is small but it was reversed when I checked it last time (+5v was higher)
It seems also that replacing c6 gave linear transistor on Q1 tolerable temperature with no load at 40c.(was 100c)...

Fingers crossed.

Perhaps the difference is so small it´s irrelevant?

This is the update...
It goes to all calibration steps and displays horizontal trace on end...
Difference is noticeable only when at load
By that what I mean is voltage at about 0.3 volts lower on -5 rail and at that time i can hear noticeable squeaking sound coming from the PSU ( it is like capacitor wanting to retire OR something like high voltage arcing) don`t know for sure) But all of that is when powered on and connected to the unit...+12v and -12v,+5v are spot on...
At that time Q1 is having a hard time at about 70c
Finally found and replaced blown tantalum capacitor that I have mentioned earlier - it was on one of the CCD boards.

By the way Noppy thanks so much for informing me that the unit does not have missing trigger board ... I was feeling so blue last night when I thought it might not be there...

That is also where mine had exploded a tantalum....

In my view -4,7V (+/-100mV?) should be good enough...

Have you checked the yellow-brownish X-/Y-capacitors in the power supply? They often have cracks and soak humidity until they finally die...

Hm... Service Manual says -5V +/-50mV... Don't know whether that is really necessary...

Yes I replaced all Rifa capacitors with x and y class pp.

I do suspect quality of capacitors for PSU I bought at local store. They are Jamicon so not really the same league as Philips and ELNA ones I removed from psu...[/I][/I]

I have just tested -5v rail with dummy load
with 3.3 ohm resistance it gave -5.4v,
with 0.55 ohm resistance it gave the same -5.4v and that`s about 9 amperes of power,
so i am guessing that to put it at -4.7v it has to draw a lot of current?
so what are your thoughts on how much this rail consumes power?

In my 4074 the -5V rail consumes 9,8A.

Can u tell me about higher series consumption altogether?
Mine cosumes 240 watts of power from mains...

Sorry, right now I have all my 409x in the attic.
Service Manual says 250Wmax for the 4074. Since the power supply is the same 240W sounds plausible.

Well it tries to draw more than 250w at stratup, but it looks like it have current limitation, because after a minute it lowers it to 240w...

But that could be caused by warmup...

I decided to raise the voltage with adjustment pot and assemble the unit...
Here goes auto setup for comparing the units if someone restores one in future:

It took me some time but now I realized you have a D1052. That is a Gould 4092 (2ch / 800MS/s) not a Gould 4096 (2ch / 800MS/s, alternative 1ch / 1,6GS/s).

Well then, it took me more until now to realize I had 4092.
Still worth the effort? I really hope it is...

Of course!


Some historical facts:

The 4074 was ready in 1986. Due to some production problems (first time SMT for Gould) the 4074 was re-released in 1987. (Related versions: 4072 and 4071)
At this time the 4074 was the fastest scope in the market (regarding sampling with 8Bit). There was the HP 54111D with 2GS/s but its resolution was only 6Bit. All the "faster" scopes worked with random sampling. HP had a lot of them.
Unfortunatelly I only have prices of 1991. At that time with todays money you would have to pay 30k€ for the 4084. But in 1991 there were already competitors. I´m sure in 1987 the 4074 was much more expensive.

In 1988 Tektronix offered the 2440 with 300MHz bandwith and 500MS/s sampling rate. In 1989 Philips offered the PM3323 with the same specifications.

Gould did a small update and released the 4084 (+4082). With the help of a small board they were able to connect two channels to sample with 800MS/s.

The bigger update was the 4094. Gould modified the whole input stage and the trigger circuit to get 200MHz bandwith.
The main part of the 40xx, the CCD, is always the same: MS1007A. Because of that the 40xx can´t do more than 4x 400MS/s.
Now Gould offered a lot of variants:
4072A, a 4072 with 200MHz bandwith
4074A, a 4074 with 200MHz bandwith
4090, a 4082 with 200MHz bandwith (not the best naming?)
4092, a 2-channel scope with 200MHz bandwith and 800MS/s for both channels (that´s the explanation for the name of the 4090)
4094, the main scope, a 4084 with 200Mhz bandwith
4096, here you can connect all four CCDs and get 1 channel 1,6GS/s

A lot of the scopes were also sold by Siemens. Different branding, 100% the same technology.

Thumbs up Re: Siemens D1052 oscilloscope (Gould DSO 4096).


Can u imagine their effort at the time, they had put it in...

So here is the result output of two resurrected oscilloscopes put in use after quite some time from yesterday. Other one "Hameg" is analogue. Signal is generated by GM328 *pwm 10bit* component tester.

This is the first time I have came in contact with oscilloscopes so I do not know much about results. I have done only auto calibration.

Also here is the sticker from one of the boards from D1052. It seems that they are identical. Might be different software though.

Can u share your thoughts with their output? If it is possible with such a signal.
