The Type 1A5 is a differential amplifier plug-in for [[500-series scopes]].  Bandwidth is 50MHz down to 5mV/div.  The maximum differential sensitivity is 1mV/div, with a bandwidth of 40MHz.  Common-mode rejection is 20,000 to 1 at low frequencies, deteriorating to 200:1 at 20MHz.  Like most Tektronix differential plug-ins, it has three modes: Va-Vc, Va-Vb, and Vc-Vb.  Vc is controlled by a ten-turn pot and can vary from -5V to +5V (0.5V on the 5V/div to 20V/div ranges).  There is a front-panel jack for direct connection of the Type [[P6046]] Active Differential Probe.  Type 1A5 was [[introduced in 1967]], replacing Types [[W]] and [[Z]], and lasted until the end of the classic plugin scope line in 1974.
