Agilent 6612C "Opt 760" board
« on: November 21, 2023, 12:11:55 am »
Today I took my 6612C apart and did some cleaning. I also took some pictures for those who are curious about what the "Opt 760 Isolation and Reversal relays" board looks like.

Iiuc, the 6612C (and 6632B) service manual refers to it as
"A6 5063-3434 1 Relay Board (Optional)".  Sadly, no further hints.

Is a schematic available?

It's hidden in the 6632B's service manual.

Links to the open source version of this board made by Bateau020 for 6632B power supplies (and some others):

Also front binding posts with additional sense and ground.

This design seems to have been simplified so that it is only compatible with 66xxB and will not work with 661xC.

I removed the two larger relays from the board to get more layout details under them, and I noticed that the silkscreen of the relays' outline actually covered part of the guard rings.  :-//

I have made some progress on opt-760 clone, schematic diagram, gerber files, and BOM are attached.
