W: Difference between revisions

Line 28:

An output of V<sub>C</sub> is provided on the front panel for precision measurements.

Unlike the Type Z, Type W has two gain axes, a decade attenuator and a 1−2−5−10−20−50 selector,

Unlike the Type Z, Type W has two gain axes: a decade attenuator and a 1−2−5−10−20−50 selector,

reminiscent of [[D|Type D]] from ten years before.

Type W is the only letter-series plug-in with an "infinite resistance" input mode selectable at the front panel.

([[1A5|Type 1A5]] has an internal jumper that can be cut.)

Original production uses a pair of type [[8056]] [[Nuvistor|Nuvistors]] in the front end; at serial number 7000 these were replaced with JFETs.

In the letter-series timeline of differential comparators, Type W, [[introduced in 1965]],
