7B50A
The Tektronix 7B50A is a redesign of the 100 MHz 7B50 timebase plug-in for 7000-series scopes, introduced in 1976.
The 7B50A was nothing more than a 7B80 with its fastest calibrated sweep rate limited to 5 ns/div via a modified cam-switch that locked out the two fastest settings.
Key Specifications
