The '''Tektronix 5031''' is a dual-beam split-screen, bi-stable storage oscilloscope introduced in 1969 (no longer listed in the 1973 catalog).  There is a portable benchtop model, the 5031, and a rack-mount model, the R5031, as well as a sister model [[5030]]/R5030 without storage.  The 503x series are monolithic scopes (no plugins).
 
The 5030 and 5031 feature differential and current probe (for [[P6021]]) inputs on both channels.  Input ranges are similar to the contemporary [[3A9]] diff/current amplifier plugin but without the variable bandwidth and DC offset controls.  The horizontal deflection system is shared.
 
The 5031/5030 include a readout system which uses small lightbulb/fiber dot matrix displays external to the CRT, similar to that in the [[576]] curve tracer.  Only the first and last steps on the time/div and volts/div switches are labelled.

==Internals==
 
The channel-1 and channel-2 input attenuators use a rotary barrel cam that moves several small contact
arms to select the desired path through the attenuator networks. 
 
The design is similar to that seen in several 7000-series plug-ins. 
The front-end amplifier starts with a differential amplifier formed by
both halves of a [[151-1027-00]] dual JFET, Q46, followed by a dual PNP.
The rest of the signal path comprises differential amplifiers made of discrete
BJTs, including the deflection amplifier, which uses [[SE7056]] transistors for
its output stage.
 
The 5031 makes extensive use of relays in the signal path.
 
The 5031 has -4.1 kV on the CRT cathode, and no post-deflection acceleration.
