 The '''Tektronix 1230''' is a logic analyzer chassis that supports 16 to 64 channels, 100 MHz asynchronous, 25 MHz synchronous.
-It was introduced in 1989, a year after the [[1225]] and [[1220]]. It is very similar to the Tektronix [[1225]] and [[1220]], the difference being board layout and the number of channels. There were option boards available that the user could install. There was four available: parallel printer port, RS232, GPIB interface and on-line notes in foreign languages. Tektronix also had a software package (S43R101) that would run on IBM PC compatible machines. It used the RS232 port to control the analyzer. A digitizing scope card could be installed with a 100MS/s resolution, it would add two channels (1230DSM). It was also available as a all in one package (1230D)
