7A16P

Template:Plugin Sidebar 2

The Tektronix 7A16P is a single channel, programmable, vertical amplifier for 7000-series digitizing mainframes. All functions of the 7A16P can be remotely programmed via the GPIB 7000-series main interface bus, with exception of the variable gain control and the probe identify switch. It is special among the 7000-series vertical amplifiers since it offers a switchable 1 MΩ/50 Ω input impedance, only paralleled by the 7A42. The 7A16P is also unique as it has two input BNC connectors, but is strictly a single channel plugin.

It was mainly intended for use in the 7612D and the 7912 family, but can also be used in the 7854 if paired with a 021-0374-00 and internally modified by adding cables for a 18 pin header and setting jumpers correctly.
