The Tektronix 836 is a portable "programmable data communications tester" (serial protocol analyzer).
It adds a multiple string trigger function on top of the capabilities of sister models 834 and 835. Compared to the 835, it has an extra Zilog Z-8 microprocessor that, according to the manual, processes data in parallel with Z80 CPU processing at baud rates above 19.2 kbit/s.
The lead software engineer and project manager for the 836 was Bill Randle. The 836 was developed in Redmond. Others on the project were Ken Spencer (software), Dennis Holmbo (hardware) and Andy ? (custom ASIC).
