Archive Description

A custom ADC (Analog to Digital Converter) used in high-end Tektronix oscilloscopes. It features a beautiful gold and ceramic package.

Tektronix made their own chips because off-the-shelf parts weren't fast enough. This chip is the reason why Tek scopes were the gold standard for engineers for decades.
