The '''Tektronix 2440''' is a two-channel 300 MHz, 500 MS/s digital sampling oscilloscope from the late 1980s.
The '''Tektronix 2440''' is a two-channel 300 MHz, 500 MS/s digital sampling oscilloscope from the late 1980s.
It uses CCDs (essentially, analog shift registers) to store input samples at high speed and a single 8 bit flash A/D converter to digitize the time-multiplexed  CD output signals at 4 MS/s.

==Internals==
The 2440 employs several processors - an MC68B09 main CPU controls the instrument, a custom 16-bit waveform processor performs signal computations, and an MC6805 microcontroller handles the front panel interface.  The GPIB Interface is implemented with a TMS994 controller.
