The '''Tektronix 5403''' is a 60 MHz variable-persistence storage scope mainframe.
The '''Tektronix 5403''' is a 60 MHz scope mainframe base unit that uses [[5000-series plug-ins]]. It allows CRT readout of settings when used with plug-ins that support it.
 
It was sold preconfigured with a display unit:
* a [[D40]] single beam unit would make it a 5440 single beam (but multi-trace, depending on plug-ins) oscilloscope,
* a D41 storage display unit would make it a 5441 [[CRT storage scope]]
* a D44 dual beam display unit would make it a 5444 dual beam oscilloscope
 
Many scopes have a nameplate on top carrying the 5403 base unit model number instead of the full model (5440, 5441, 5444), sometimes confusing owners.

The Tektronix 5403 is a 60 MHz scope mainframe base unit that uses 5000-series plug-ins. It allows CRT readout of settings when used with plug-ins that support it.

It was sold preconfigured with a display unit:

  • a D40 single beam unit would make it a 5440 single beam (but multi-trace, depending on plug-ins) oscilloscope,
  • a D41 storage display unit would make it a 5441 CRT storage scope
  • a D44 dual beam display unit would make it a 5444 dual beam oscilloscope

Many scopes have a nameplate on top carrying the 5403 base unit model number instead of the full model (5440, 5441, 5444), sometimes confusing owners.
