The 580 was the first to, at least at Tek, to use a cross wound continuous signal [[delay line]]. The 580 used a similar horizontal system lifted from the 530’s which was too slow and insufficient writing rate. The [[P80|active probe]] and [[580 Series plug-in interface|plug in system]] left a lot to be desired. I wasn’t very proud of the 580 design as it was too compromised. | ||
