The '''Tektronix 577''' is a curve tracer, introduced in November 1972, that uses plug-in test fixtures.  The [[177]] is the standard fixture, which is intended for testing discrete devices like transistors.  Also available is the [[178]], which is for linear ICs (voltage regulators and opamps). 
 
The 577/D1 is the storage model, the 577/D2 the non-storage.
