I got in my prototype extender cable boards from OSHPARK.COM today. OSHPARK
only builds boards in multiples of 3 and I only ordered three boards so could
only build one cable. It seems to work very well. I tested it with several
different TM500 and TM5000 modules (using another set of cables

Am I right in thinking that two of these connector/cables would give the
full facilities on the 5000 series units.

I just finished laying out a small circuit board
I believe I would be interested in two.

Mark;
Could you describe your design a bit more? E.g.,
1) There are connectors at both ends of those cables; what are your socket
provisions for the module end?
2) Do you use 0.1 40-pin headers at both ends, or some other form of
termination?
BTW, I'd be interested in some, as well, depending on
Several people on the TekScopes/Tekscopes2 forums went through this a
while back. It turned out that ribbon cable appropriate for this
application was either not available or too expensive.

Are standard disk cables a reasonable length? (and a pinout you can use)
I don't know the details, but there are two types of disk cables. The old
style uses standard 40 pin ribbon

Yes, all 56 pins are extended, including the PWR pin unique to the 5000
series (it is a power good/power-on reset sort of signal).Several of the
TM500 modules are also double-wides and need two extender cables.
I have not done an extender for the GPIB connector, but that would be easy to

Well, just for grins, I did a small board for extending the TM5000 GPIB
connector. I remember that the last time I extended the GPIB bus by hooking a
ribbon cable to the TM5000 mainframe motherboard it was a bit of a hassle to
get to. These should make life easier...
I just finished laying out a small circuit board for building an extender cable
for the Tek TM500 series mainfames / modules. Prototypes are off being fab'd
at OSHPARK. Should be here in a couple of weeks. It uses two 39/40 pin ribbon
cables (all the power pins use two wires)... e.g.
I might be interested. Have you thought about making extensions for the smaller
connector used to distribute GPIB in the 5000 series?

I think a cable made from ribbon cable edge connectors would be the
easiest/cheapest way to extend the GPIB connector.
