The '''Tektronix 160 series''' is a modular instrument system designed to generate timed pulses of variable amplitude and width for use in nerve stimulation/neurophysical experiments.  It was designed by [[Dick Ropiequet]] and made from 1952 or 1953 until at least 1970 (appearing in the catalog for that year but not subsequent years, though limited production may have continued).

A 160 series system typically includes a Type 160 or 160A power supply, a [[360|Type 360 indicator unit]], and one or more of the [[161]], [[162]], and [[163]] trigger and sweep modules. There is also a single-unit power supply, the [[126]]. The height of each module is 7U (seven rack units), and they can be installed in the FA 160 mounting frame.
