The '''Tektronix 504''' is a monolithic oscilloscope
The '''Tektronix 504''' is a monolithic oscilloscope with a bandwidth of 450 kHz [[introduced in 1960]].  
with a bandwidth of 450 kHz [[introduced in 1960]].  


It was introduced at the same time as the [[503]],  
It was introduced at the same time as the [[503]], and is mechanically and electrically identical apart from the vertical amplifier.   
and is mechanically and electrically identical,
other than the vertical amplifier.   


The 504 was also offered in a rack mount version, the RM504.

The 503 incorporates two identical phase matched amplifiers  
The 503 incorporates two identical phase matched amplifiers with true differential inputs to support X-Y operation,

whereas the 504 contains a simple ground referenced vertical amplifier.   
Due to the low bandwidth and the need to keep the selling price low, neither the 503 or 504 include delay lines in the vertical signal path.
Due to the low bandwidth and need to keep the selling price low,  
neither the 503 or 504 include delay lines in the vertical signal path.
Both scopes use the same CRTs, the [[T5030]]. 


The CRT circuit uses a single [[5642]] to generate the -3000 V cathode voltage. 
The trigger circuit is a multivibrator made of a [[6DJ8]] tube.   
There is no post-deflection acceleration.
The vertical signal path has a [[6DJ8]] first stage, a BJT second stage, followed by the output stage.
Triggering is done using a multivibrator made of a [[6DJ8]] tube.   
The vertical signal path has a [[6DJ8]] first stage,  
a BJT second stage, followed by the output stage.
The vertical and horizontal output stages use pairs of [[6CB6]] tubes.
The vertical and horizontal output stages use pairs of [[6CB6]] tubes.
The CRT circuit uses a single [[5642]] to generate the –3 kV cathode voltage.
