The '''Tektronix 5000-series''' was a range of lower-speed modular scopes made from 1971 to 1991, covering target markets like mechanical or biomedical instrumentation, or audio. They complemented the high-end, modular [[7000-series scopes|7000 series]] of lab instruments to which they were mechanically similar but not directly compatible, although there are some plug-in modules that come in almost identical 5000- and 7000-series versions, e.g. the [[7A14]]/[[5A14]] sampler or [[7CT1N]]/[[5CT1N]] curve tracer.
