NewScope-8 is an LCD retrofit kit to replace the CRT display subsystem in the HP 85662A spectrum analyzer display used in:
8566A, 8566B Spectrum Analyzer
8568A, 8568B Spectrum Analyzer
8567A Spectrum Analyzer
Supports VGA, XGA and WXGA LCD panels with 1024x800 max resolution
Bitmap font with hand-optimized glyphs gives
better clarity over the original vector font when rendered on a VGA LCD panel
Enlarged markers in user
configurable shape and colors
Resolution enhancement takes advantage of the
1024 point original resolution of the 85662A display and gives a smooth curve
with reduced jaggedness
Four display schemes selectable by the align pot
Sweeps of 10ms down to 1us are now digitized and
stored in trace A memory, which can be captured via GPIB. The X axis is timed
with a crystal oscillator that requires no adjustment
Compatible with existing GPIB automation
software
The LCD back light is powered from the
unregulated +23V supply (or regulated +18V in later 85662A units) that was used
for the CRT high voltage module
