The 067-0657-00 was the result of some fundamental research by [[Bruce Hofer]] inspired by production issues in the calibration of early [[7904]] scopes. This lead to a new sweep circuit that uses current steering in a differential pair to start the charging of the timing capacitor as is discussed in [[Patent_US_4009399A|patent 4009399]]. The sweep circuit in the 067-0657-00 follows the patent application but does not implement the baseline stability circuit, which was incorporated in the [[7B92A]]. | |||
