The Tektronix Type 280 Trigger Countdown Unit takes in a periodic signal between 50MHz and 5GHz
The Tektronix Type 280 Trigger Countdown Unit takes in a signal with repetition rate 50MHz and 5GHz
and puts out a pulse in the 15 to 45 MHz range.  The main purpose of the 280 is to extend the
and puts out a pulse train with repetition rate in the 15 to 45 MHz range.   
The main purpose of the 280 is to extend the
frequency range of the the trigger circuitry in sampling scopes.  For example, consider a scope
frequency range of the the trigger circuitry in sampling scopes.  For example, consider a scope
with a [[3T77]] and a [[3S2]] with [[S2]] sampling heads.  The S2 has response to at least 4GHz
