11000 Series plug-in interface: Difference between revisions

The '''Tektronix 11000 Series plug-in interface''' is mechanically almost identical to the [[7000 Series plug-in interface]].

The only mechanical difference is at the top of the connector.

with four holes for extra electrical contacts (only known use is  the [[7A21N|7A21N direct deflection plate access plug-in]]).

The Tektronix 11000 Series plug-in interface is electrically partially the same as the 7000 Series interface.

The power pins are the same, and the signal out pins are the same.

and also provide trigger signals on B37/B38 and B35/B36.

In the 11300, the right plug-in slot is special.

It is, in some sense, a horizontal plug-in slot.

as a built-in part of the mainframe and also an easily swappable module (i.e., a plug-in).

In 11400 and DSA600 scopes, the trigger output from the LEFT and CENTER plug-ins

are routed to the RIGHT plug-in's auxiliary trigger inputs.

as input to the digitizer, and as the vertical signal.

11000-series plug-ins do not implement the 7000-series readout interface.

The pins that are used for readout in the 7000-series are not used in the 11000 Series.

Those pins were not used on vertical plugins in the 7000-series interface.

11000-series scopes introduced a much more extensive self-checking and self-calibration than the 7000 Series.

Part of the self-calibration routine involves the

Those pins were not used in the 7000-series interface.

The 11000-series interface uses pin B20 as an "11k Detector".

11000-series plug-ins have a pull-up resistor on pin B20.

7000-series (vertical) plug-ins left pin B20 unconnected.
