The Tektronix 7D13 is a digital multimeter plug-in for 7000-series scopes with CRT readout. It will function in any compartment. There is no analog output signal presented on the CRT; therefore, it is not necessary to select the 7D13 with the oscilloscope Vertical or Horizontal Mode switches.

The input section is galvanically isolated, allowing the input to float ±1500 volts with respect to chassis ground.

Internals

The 7D13 consists of an analog pulse width modulator front-end built with 741 op amps and dual FETs, and a 3½ digit counter section using standard 74xx TTL parts which is interfacing with the readout system (through a 155-0038-00 D/A converter). The front end is isolated by transformers used for pulses and a floating ±15 V supply. The Probe jack for the P6058 (a 4-pin LEMO S-series connector) has contacts for the temperature sensor (a diode-connected transistor) as well as the voltage input terminals.
