User manual

Tektronix 7A17 is a utility plug-in designed for use with Tektronix 7000-series oscilloscopes. It provides 50-ohm, 50-millivolt/division access to either the vertical or horizontal deflection system in the mainframe. It also provides interfacing to the mainframe power supplies, readout encoding circuits, and other functions that allow custom circuit design to meet specific needs. The 7A17 is not factory-equipped with readout, however, access is provided so that readout encoding circuits can be connected.

Tektronix 7A17 User manual

Type
User manual

Tektronix 7A17 is a utility plug-in designed for use with Tektronix 7000-series oscilloscopes. It provides 50-ohm, 50-millivolt/division access to either the vertical or horizontal deflection system in the mainframe. It also provides interfacing to the mainframe power supplies, readout encoding circuits, and other functions that allow custom circuit design to meet specific needs. The 7A17 is not factory-equipped with readout, however, access is provided so that readout encoding circuits can be connected.
