The '''Tektronix 7623''' is a 100 MHz analog multi-mode storage mainframe, introduced in 1972.<br />The '''7623A''' facelift in 1975 increased standard writing speed to 150 div/µs (from 100 div/µs for a 7623 without option 12). Front panel controls were changed in the 7623A, too. The '''7623B''' version, specified at 100 MHz, added a reduced scan mode to increase stored writing speed (essentially it was a re-named [[7633]]). It replaced the [[7613]], 7623A and [[7633]] in 1991. There were also '''R7623'''(A,B) rack-mount versions. | |||
Project Engineer for the 7613 and 7623 was [[Bill DeVey]]. | |||

==Internals== | |||
The 7623 uses a [[Transfer storage CRT]] which includes an internal, fast-responding storage mesh. In fast mode, the time base is inhibited after a sweep, and the transfer cycle is started. Individual sweeps therefore occur in about one-second intervals. | |||
The vertical output amplifier is built around a [[155-0080-00]] hybrid in the non-A version. The 7623A vertical amplifier is a discrete design with [[bridged T-coil]]s. | |||
Other custom Tek ICs used in the 7623 include [[155-0011-00]] clock & chop blanking, [[155-0022-00]] channel switch, and the [[7000 series readout system]] chips. | |||
The 7623, like the other 76xx models, has a linear supply which does not provide [[7000 Series plug-in interface|+5 V for lights (A9)]] without [[Media:040-0686-01.pdf | modification]]. | |||
