Numbering System
In its history, Tektronix part numbers followed one of two systems:
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).
