===Options===
* Option 4: Change to fast digitize mode. This option trades off scan time with resolution by compressing the scan. The target is written on and read from a 256 x 256 point matrix with a maximum of 14 points stored per vertical scan. This option is achieved by setting the correct jumpers on the A16, A20, A22, A26, A46 boards.

The Tektronix 7912HB is a scan converter based digitizer in the 7912 series, introduced in 1988. It is an improved version of the previous 7912AD, increasing bandwidth to 750 MHz (using a 7A29P amplifier).

For the 7912AD and 7912HB, special GPIB-controllable plug-in modules with a 'P' (Programmable) suffix were available, e.g. 7A16P, 7A29P and 7B90P.

The 7912AD was succeeded by the 750 MHz 7912HB in 1987 (using a 7A29P amplifier).

Options

  • Option 4: Change to fast digitize mode. This option trades off scan time with resolution by compressing the scan. The target is written on and read from a 256 x 256 point matrix with a maximum of 14 points stored per vertical scan. This option is achieved by setting the correct jumpers on the A16, A20, A22, A26, A46 boards.
  • Option 13: Changes the video output to 625 lines/frame with a 50 Hz field rate (PAL). This option is achieved by setting the correct jumpers on the A20 and A28 boards.

Internals

Three output methods are provided: Video (NTSC or PAL), X-Y-Z low-speed analog, and a GPIB interface. For video-out, Tektronix recommended the 634 monitor or a monitor from the 650- and 670-series and a 75 Ω termination.
