In its history, '''Tektronix part numbers''' followed one of two systems:


* The original number scheme, used up to 1964, had a 3-digit product group prefix followed by a 3-digit part number, e.g. [[013-013]].
[[File:Tek New PNs-2.1.65.pdf|300px|thumb|right|link=https://w140.com/tekwiki/images/9/98/Tek_New_PNs-2.1.65.pdf|Feb 1965 Announcement Letter Introducing the New Part Number System (click to enlarge)  ]]
* From March 1965 on, this was extended to 3-digit product group prefix, 4-digit part number and 2-digit suffix, e.g. [[013-0013-00]] instead of 013-013.<br />The suffix can indicate a version of the component or assembly, a quality or speed grade (see e.g. [[155-0078-00]]), a phosphor type (e.g. [[154-0644-05]] vs [[154-0644-09]]), or some other product variant. It is typically -00 when unused.
===6-digit Scheme (1947–1964)===
The original number scheme, used until February 1965, had a 3-digit product group prefix followed by a 3-digit part number, e.g. [[013-013]].


Note: also see this doc for more detail: [[Media:TEK Part Number System.pdf|Tektronix Part Number System (PDF)]]
===9-digit Scheme (1965–)===
On February 1, 1965, Tektronix sent [[Media:Tek New PNs-2.1.65.pdf|a letter to all their customers]] to announce their new numbering system.
The change was also announced in [[Media:Service_Scope_31_Apr_1965.pdf|Service Scope 31, April 1965]].


The known '''product groups''' are:
From that day on, the old part numbering system was extended to a 3-digit product group prefix, a 4-digit part number and a 2-digit suffix, e.g. [[013-0013-00]] instead of 013-013.


{| class=wikitable |
The suffix can indicate a version of the component or assembly, a grade (quality or speed, see e.g. [[155-0078-00]]), a phosphor type (e.g. [[154-0644-05]] vs [[154-0644-09]]), or some other product variant.
It is typically -00 when unused. <br />The -99 suffix seems to be used for non-supported in-house products that were not designed to be released to the general public (e.g. [[067-0883-99]] or [[067-0701-99]]).

Numbering System

In its history, Tektronix part numbers followed one of two systems:

Feb 1965 Announcement Letter Introducing the New Part Number System (click to enlarge)

6-digit Scheme (1947–1964)

The original number scheme, used until February 1965, had a 3-digit product group prefix followed by a 3-digit part number, e.g. 013-013.

9-digit Scheme (1965–)

On February 1, 1965, Tektronix sent a letter to all their customers to announce their new numbering system. The change was also announced in Service Scope 31, April 1965.

From that day on, the old part numbering system was extended to a 3-digit product group prefix, a 4-digit part number and a 2-digit suffix, e.g. 013-0013-00 instead of 013-013.

The suffix can indicate a version of the component or assembly, a grade (quality or speed, see e.g. 155-0078-00), a phosphor type (e.g. 154-0644-05 vs 154-0644-09), or some other product variant. It is typically -00 when unused.
The -99 suffix seems to be used for non-supported in-house products that were not designed to be released to the general public (e.g. 067-0883-99 or 067-0701-99).
