(Redirected from 4002A)
The Tektronix 4002 (aka T4002) was the first graphics terminal offered by Tektronix. It was announced at the Fall Joint Computer Conference in December 1968 and introduced in 1969.
The 4002 was updated as the 4002A in 1971, which replaced diode memory boards in the character generator with a ROM, and succeeded by the very successful 4010 series starting in 1972.
