The Tektronix 132 is an external enclosure | The Tektronix 132 is an external enclosure, power supply, and amplifier for a [[Letter-series_and_1-series_plug-ins|letter-series or 1-series plug-in]]. | ||

The | DC-to-16MHz differential amplifier in the 132. The resulting vertical signal is available on the front panel of the 132 either using [[Connectors#UHF|UHF connectors]] (early 132 versions) or | ||
[[Connectors#BNC|BNC connectors]] (late 132 versions). | |||
The 132's power supply is similar to Tektronix oscilloscopes | |||
of the late 1950s and early 1960s. | |||
The rectifier diodes are solid state, | |||
but the regulators are tube. | |||
An [[OG3]] tube is used to generate a -150 reference voltage. | |||
The +225V and +350V supplies are floating supplies stacked | |||
on top of the +189V unregulated DC that feeds the +100V supply. | |||
