Manuals – Specifications – Links – Pictures

The Tektronix 2440 is a two-channel 300 MHz, 500 MS/s digital sampling oscilloscope from the late 1980s.

WARNING:
Operation of the 2440 (and 2432 and 2430): A/D-converter and CCD hybrids may suffer irreparable damage within a few minutes if operated out of the metal enclosure without extra cooling.
