The Tektronix 11300 is a series of digitally controlled analog scopes. | |||
The series consists of four models: | |||
* 11301 | |||
* 11301A | |||
* 11302 | |||
* 11302A | |||
The four 11300 models have most of their circuitry in common. | |||
They differ in only two respects: | |||
* the 11302 and 11302A have an MCP CRT, whereas the 11301 and 11301A have a non-MCP CRT | |||
* the 11301A and the 11302A have 750 MHz counters, whereas the 11301 and 11302 have 500 MHz counters | |||
The MCP CRT has a smaller graticule than the non-MCP CRT. | |||
The 11300 vertical signal path starts with a plug-in amplifier. | |||
The signal from the plug-in goes to the channel switch. | |||
The output of the channel switch goes to the vertical amplifier. | |||
The vertical amplifier drives the deflection plates of the CRT. | |||
The 11300 horizontal signal path starts with the plug-in amplifier. | |||
The plug-in provides a trigger signal to the mainframe. | |||
The trigger signals from the plug-ins are fed to the A and B trigger circuits. | |||
The A and B triggers control the start signal of the A and B sweeps, respectively. | |||
The A and B sweep outputs (ramps) are fed to the horizontal amplifier, which contains an input multiplexer. | |||
The output of the horizontal amplifier drives the deflection plates of the CRT. | |||
The A and B triggers also send trigger pulses to the counter/timer circuit. | |||
The counter/timer measures the time between trigger events. | |||
11300-series scopes contains contains a significant amount of digital circuitry. | |||
The digital circuitry is not in the signal path. | |||
The mainframe has a 80186 microprocessor. | |||
Each 11000-series plug-in contains an 8051-family microcontroller. | |||
In addition to the microprocessors, the mainframes and plug-ins contain custom Tek digital ICs. | |||
The digital circuitry provides several externally-observable features: | The digital circuitry provides several externally-observable features: | ||
