80

Template:Plugin Sidebar 2 The Tektronix Type 80 is a plug-in introduced in 1959 for 580-series scopes.

It is used with the Type P80 cathode-follower probe, which attaches through an Amphenol 165-15 connector.

The system risetime of a Type P80 probe, a Type 80 plug-in, and a 581/585 non-A scope is 3.5 ns, i.e. a bandwidth of 100 MHz (slightly down-rated to 95 MHz in 1962).

The Type 80 has no active components in the signal path.
