Template:Plugin Sidebar 2 The EIP 101A is a receiver-type Spectrum Analyzer plug-in, designed to work in all Tektronix oscilloscope mainframes which accept letter-type plug-ins. Used in the 201A power supply unit, it works together with all analog oscilloscopes. It covers the frequency range of 0.7 - 15 GHz in one single band and comprises a three-resonator YIG preselector.
