HP Network and Spectrum Analyzer Accessory Power Plug
Description
Hp Rf Test Equipment Uses A Small 3 Pin Connector To Provide Power To External Probes And Accessories. Hp Doesn'T Provide These Easily And They Are Not A Standard Digi-Key Type Of Buy. If You Want To Make Accessories For Hp Network Or Spectrum Analyzers- Custom Probes, Pre-Amps, Fixtures, Etc- Its Nice To Be Be Able To Power Them From This Internal Power Source Rather Than A Power Brick Or Batteries. This Is A Simple Design That I'Ve Used With Several Cables And Gadgets- I Generally Use A 7805 And 7905 Regulator In My Designs To Regulate The Power Down To +-5V. The Connector Body Has The Correct Geometry To Line Up With The Pins Of The Hp Female Connector. Ic Socket Pins, Discarded Db-25 Pins, Etc Can Be Soldered And Friction Fit In The Hole. Some Scrounging Required. A Groove That Will Enhance The Grip Of Heat Shrink At The Transition From The Cable To The Connector Is Provided. Comments Welcome.
