The '''Tektronix 021-0374-00 GPIB Decoder''' is a [[7000-series plug-ins|7000-series plug-in]] designed to allow
GPIB control of [[7A16P]] or [[7A29P]] programmable amplifiers and/or a [[7B90P]] programmable time base
plug-in in a 7854 mainframe. (The manual warns that of all 7000 series mainframes, only the 7854 has
adequate +5 V supply capacity.)
 
The -P type plugins were originally designed for the 7000 series digitizers like the [[7912AD]]
that have a built-in GPIB interface. 
 
The 021-0374-00 replicates the functions of that interface, receiving commands
from GPIB and translating them to the internal serial format expected by the plugins. 
It is based on a 6802 microcontroller and a TMS 9914 GPIB interface chip.

The interface must be installed in the left horizontal (A timebase) bay. It addresses left vertical,
right vertical and right horizontal plugins through GPIB sub-addresses 1, 2 and 3, respectively.

Template:Plugin Sidebar 2 The Tektronix 021-0374-00 GPIB Decoder is a 7000-series plug-in designed to allow GPIB control of 7A16P or 7A29P programmable amplifiers and/or a 7B90P programmable time base plug-in in a 7854 mainframe. (The manual warns that of all 7000 series mainframes, only the 7854 has adequate +5 V supply capacity.)

The -P type plugins were originally designed for the 7000 series digitizers like the 7912AD that have a built-in GPIB interface.

The 021-0374-00 replicates the functions of that interface, receiving commands from GPIB and translating them to the internal serial format expected by the plugins. It is based on a 6802 microcontroller and a TMS 9914 GPIB interface chip.

The interface must be installed in the left horizontal (A timebase) bay. It addresses left vertical, right vertical and right horizontal plugins through GPIB sub-addresses 1, 2 and 3, respectively.
