Hi All,

Has there been any advances on the failing chips (5088-7061/5088-7062) on
the 5370B?

So that's a "no" I'm guessing.

Not aware of any work. I did a hack as I recall on one unit.
That was a ecl inverter biased linearly etc. Serious hack. (Some would say
ugly)
But if its dead, its dead nothing to loose. That chip is actually pretty
complicated.
As I recall the threshold setting is handled in the chip.
Can more modern chips work and give threshold I totally believe that.
Regards
Paul.

Hi

Pretty much the same “no” as on the input circuits on the 5335 …. ( best to
avoid +5V on a 5335 input with the attenuator set to 1X ….)
