Rear interface

The SC504 has dedicated rear interface signal inputs switchable from the front panel AC/DC/GND/Int DC coupling selectors. These are terminated in 50 Ω (max.5 V_RMS, 0.5 W).

Additionally, it provides a trigger input, Z-axis input (±5 V), delayed gate input (ECL), gate select input (ground for ext gate), intensify input (ECL), Ch1 trigger output (>50 mV/Div, 30 MHz), triggered gate output (ECL), holdoff output (ECL), and ramp output (0−10 V).

Internals

The SC504 uses some custom Tek ICs, namely the 155-0124-00 preamplifier (U4345), 155-0109-01 trigger (U3238), and 155-0122-00 A-B logic (U3158). There are two passive input attenuator hybrids (HY1520, HY1420) and two 155-0161-00 attenuator/amplifier hybrids (HY1530, HY1430).

The power supply uses the pass transistors provided by two mainframe slots. On the left mainframe slot covered by the SC504, the pass transistors are the only connections.
