Which B&K adapter to use for Nintendo?
by Noel Johnson 07 Aug '02

I just learned to use my B&K. Could someone confirm that adapter 23 is used on Nintendo Sanyo monitors? I don't have the current setup list from B&K. Thanks in advance! Noel

Sounds like the 6801 pod adapter I have. I forget what the part number is for the "roll your own" pod adapter kits Fluke sold was.

Dumper(.zip) utility...
by John Robertson 01 Aug '02

Thanks to Kevin for providing this...I find one nice addition to the program is to add: "DPY-$1" right after the line "INCR REG1", then you get the 9010 counting happily upwards as it dumps the ROM contents of your board under test. This utility is also great for dumping old game boards with lots of 1K X 4 PROMs, as it is a real pain to combine them (like to a 2732/2764)to replace defective ones or bad IC sockets. I'm working on a Atari 4 Player Football, and every time I flex the board I find another PROM socket failing...so I'm dumping the memory and going to drop the whole works into a single 2764 and wire the sucker in. I figure it will save me (and my customer) headaches! The old PROMs have the nasty oxidizing pins a few fell off just removing them to read on the burner.

9010A RAM test patterns scripts
by John Robertson 31 Jul '02

31 Jul '02

Anyone make a script for testing 5101 CMOS RAMs? I envision something like this 6800.pod REGA (SET TO BEGINNING 5101 ADDRESS) TEST LOOP1 WRITE REGA = AF 'note that as 5101's only have 4 DATA lines you only set the half in use and the other to F in this case D4, 5, 6 & D7 are tested. READ REGA =AF WRITE REGA = 5F READ REGA = 5F IF REGA=256 GOTO TEST2 INCR REGA GOTO LOOP1 TEST2 REGA = BEGINNING 5101 REGB = 0001 LOOP2 WRITE REGA =REGB READ REGA = REGB INCR REGB IF REGA = 256 GOTO END GOTO LOOP2 END Gah, this is very rough, and I need time to review it (haven't fired it up), but any suggestions for a better RAM test would be appreciated. Testing the 4 bit RAM is not very nice. I'm looking for something that would give similar results to the Short RAM test and possibly the Long RAM test... John :-#)#

Re: Wow! Are the 6809 pods L@@K RARE?
by Kev 25 Jul '02

I paid $450 for mine & felt lucky to get it. The only other ones I could find were $550 to 2x that price. The group doesn't seem to be interested in fessing up as to what equipment they have but I think I can name about 4 6809 pod holders. 6502s do seem more common & less pricey for some reason?

Fluke 9100 and CDP1806 micro availability
by Jeff George 22 Jul '02

22 Jul '02

Helllo, My name is Jeff and I am new to this list. I repair old industrial electronics. I have used a fluke 9010/9100 tester a little in the past. I just purchased one off of ebay a week or so ago. First, Does anybody know where I can find 1802 type micros and related chips ( CDP1806,CDP6823, CDP6853...). www.usbid.com has anything if you are willing to go broke buying it. In general, where do you go to look for old chips? I also have a couple of 9100 questions... How easy is it to find a SCSI interface for it? When I try to go into edit mode, I get a "keyboard not present" message when the keyboard IS there. Is this a common problem? Also...Does anyone have a 6908 pod they want to sell ? Thanks, Jeff
