The '''Tektronix 7B53A''' and '''7B53AN''' is a 100 MHz dual time base plug-in for [[7000-series scopes]].
The '''Tektronix 7B53A''' and '''7B53AN''' is a 100 MHz dual time base plug-in for [[7000-series scopes]].
It is similar to the [[7B52]] which is much more rarely found.  While the 7B52 has a separate mode switch, this is integrated into the TIME/DIV switch in the 7B53A.
 
It succeeded the short-lived [[7B52]], with sweep mode selection integrated into the time/Div switch, and the 7B52's combined trigger level/polarity control replaced with separate, concentric knobs.


The 7B53AN is electrically identical to he 7B53A but omits the circuits needed to drive the alphanumeric readout system provided in 7000-series mainframes.
