The only limitation the 7530 has is due to the speed and performance of microprocessor chips available in the mid-1970s.

The only solution at the time that would be fast and precise enough was to create a 24-bit wide CPU using [[AM25LS381]] bit-slice chips.
The only solution at the time that would be fast and precise enough was to create 12- and 24-bit wide CPUs using [[AM25LS381]] bit-slice chips.


The result is a 3-wide, 1 Hz to 100 kHz FFT Spectrum Analyzer plugin for the 7000 series scopes that meets or exceeds the specs of the [[7L5]] in the same frequency range.
