The Tektronix 7A42 is a four-channel 350 MHz plug-in for 7000-series scopes.

It was specifically designed for logic signals (TTL, ECL, CMOS) and supports triggering based on Boolean conditions of the four inputs.

A fifth trace, "Trigger View", displays the trigger function output or external clock input.

Internals

The 7A42's functions are controlled by an 8085A microprocessor.

Each of the four input attenuator circuits contains five miniature relays. The bistable relay coils are wired in a 4x5 matrix.
