    While your video is nicely made, when explaining to people how to put their hands on CRT circuits, please never forget to warn them about the dangers of really high voltages present on these circuits! You obviously know where not to put your fingers, like for example the solder points near the flyback transformer, high voltage capacitors, or the neck board where some high anodes voltages (at least a few hundred volts) are present... Also a warning about the voltage present under the anode cap (probably over 10kV) would be welcome. Someone who might not be aware of the high voltages present would get a nasty surprise if getting too close to dangerous points of the circuit or trying to take things apart without proprely discharging (even if well designed circuits have resistors to self discharge).
    Also... keeping a bright static focussed dot on the screen like that will pretty quickly burn the phosphor in that spot, something like a few seconds would be enough to have some damage. Never ever keep a bright spot (or even a bright small line or something) in a static position on a CRT tube, at least lower the brightness. It will irreversibly burn in! I managed to burn a few spots on a good tube once, working on CRT clock circuits, and I was careful...

    Turn off the Oscilloscope time-base and insert a sawtooth ramp generator and with that make a large screen Curve Tracer for vacuum tube and transistor testing/matching.
    Tv sets are ideal for this function, because of their large screen.
    Curve tracers for tubes are worth a fortune nowadays - if you can find one.

    I wonder if it’s possible to assemble a device on some Cortex M4 that will control the ADC, create a frame buffer in its RAM, then output this frame through the built-in DAC to an RF modulator and thus generate a ready-made signal to feed it to the antenna input of the TV? I think this is a much more interesting and versatile idea than destroying a working CRT TV. After all, in this way it will be possible to immediately draw a grid on the screen and display the values ​​of vertical sensitivity and sweep time in text form. Plus some additional information such as signal amplitude values, frequency, etc.😉

      At least tens of thousands of people have worked with CRTs for years and are not dead because of it.
      Deaths from shocks are infinitesimal. It isn't designed as a killing machine!
      There are three points that could give you a nasty shock; Transformer, end of the tube, anode; but it IS NOT likely to kill the average healthy person and is easy to avoid. Also yes, always discharge the tube even if it has a bleeder.
      I'm sure pou don't go around telling people that sticking their fingers in a wall socket could kill them!

    The impedance of these coils isn't very big so you can't measure every type of signal source. There are probably some more frequency limitations than the normal scope.

    • @imnotbeluga007
      @imnotbeluga007 Год назад +2

      Of course. Horizontal deflection happens at 15 625 Hz and vertical at 50 Hz (PAL).
      You can go a bit higher, but horizontal 25 kHz and vertical 200 Hz is max.

    I now this was the 'how to make an oscilloscope on a TV' thing but with a little more work you can make it display an XY vector as well.
    And before someone asks, no moving the coil whilst the tube is powered won't kill you.
    I wouldn't advise touching the anode though!

    Аз съм правил няколко подобни осцилоскопи до 20 kHz. Но измерваният сигнал трябва да бъде над 3 V! Под 3 V сигнал няма да бъде показан коректно! За това трябва да се направят входен усилвател и делител на напрежението и времеделение, за да стане реален ниско честотен осцилископ!
    Освен от този тио телевизори, аз съм правил осцилоскопи от crt from viwer of VHS camcoder! Стават много малки аналогови ниско честотни осцилоскопи и ако му прибавиме елементарна приставка от две съпротивленуя ще може да се наблюдават характеристиките на полупроводниците - диоди, транзистори, високо честотни бобини и много други!

      Аз в детстве съм имал само един български чернобял телевизор, който бащами всяка седмица ремонтираше, защото при нас напрежението беше различно и лампуте изгаряха! Но аз съм виждал истински осцилограф на баща ми ло70, който беше много интересен! Проблемът в тези осцилоскопи от телевизор, че без усилвател на напрежението и волт делител може да се използват само за проверка на полупроводници и индикатор на високоговорител! Аз съм си правил от немски мини телевизорпета и от crt от vhs виамери визиорът, който е 1 см диагонал и позволява да си направиш минитюрен аналогов осцилоскоп за тестване на полупроводници.. Здравейте, благодаря за мнението и поздрави от гореща и дъждовна в момента България.. Аз имам около 10 направени осцилоскопа и 6 аналогови и 3 дигитални осцилоскопи , но вече рядко се занимавам а това хоби!

    That is a good piece of equipment to pull that from. This exact circuit for Monochrome CRT is in countless products, flyback transformer and those two very interesting ICs. The equipment I pulled mine from was a radio hybrid with speakers, so the board was very wide and would have been inconvenient to mount. I was making a VCO from ICL8038 if anyone has heard of it and wanted to use it as a signal display just for kicks -- the board is too inconvenient :(

    Wrong idea, because oscilloscopes work with electrostatic deflection! TV picture tubes are far too short for this, apart from the fact that the deflection plates are missing. They can only work with magnetic deflection.
    And what for? There should be enough discarded analog oscilloscopes on the market.

    Your lucky, a lot of TV's line output/EHT tend to not work when the horizontal coil is disconnected, sometimes a substitute inductor will do the trick though.
    Also be VERY sparing with the brightness, especially with only a dot shown, as you can easily burn a hole in the phosphor. (been there, done that)
