The '''Tektronix Type 536''' is an X-Y scope [[introduced in 1957]] that takes two [[letter-series and 1-series plug-ins]], one for the horizontal axis and one for the vertical axis.   


The 536 contains identical vertical and horizontal amplifiers. This allows an equal bandwidth of 11MHz in both directions. It also has a special CRT with equal bandwidths in both directions. Aside from the amplifiers, the only other circuitry in the entire scope is the power supplies and calibrator.  
The Type 536 does not contain trigger and sweep circuitry.
To use a 536 as a conventional oscilloscope, a [[T|Type T timebase plug-in]] can be installed in the Horizontal bay.


The 536 contains identical vertical and horizontal amplifiers, with a front panel control to set the two in phase.
This allows an equal bandwidth of 11 MHz in both directions.
It also has a special CRT ([[T5360]]) with equal bandwidths in both directions.
Aside from the amplifiers, the only other circuitry in the entire scope are the power supplies and calibrator.
