 The '''Tektronix 4S2''' is a two-channel [[sampling oscilloscope|sampling]] vertical plug-in for the [[661]].
-Signals enter the 4S2 through [[Connectors#GR-874|GR-874 connectors]] on the front panel. Unlike the [[4S1]], the 4S2's signal path does not contain a [[delay line]] between the input connector and the sampler.  This has the advantage of maintaining higher pulse fidelity and thus higher bandwidth.  It has the disadvantage of making it impossible to see the leading edge of the triggering event unless a pre-trigger is used.

 The 4S2 uses a four-diode sampling bridge.  The 4S2A uses a two-diode sampling bridge.
