Template:Plugin Sidebar 2 The Tektronix 5S14 is a 1 GHz dual-trace delayed sweep sampler plug-in. It is almost identical to the 7S14 plugin (from the 7000 series) except for the omission of read-out circuits.
It is a complete sampling system unlike, for example, the 7S12, which requires a separate timing plug-in to provide triggering and sampling pulse generation.

Internals
The 5S14N contains two samplers, trigger and sweep circuitry, and circuitry to interface it with the 5000-series mainframe in which it operates. The mainframe provides the 5S14N with power. As a combined horizontal/vertical plug-in the 5S14N sends the mainframe both horizontal and vertical signals.
There are two 1.35 V mercury button cells, BT1 and BT2, in the sampler circuit. They act as floating bias sources, so if a 5S14 stops working it may be not defective, just dead batteries.
The sampler used by the 5S14 is a two-diode design. Each of the two input channels has its own sampler.
