    The Type Z Plug-in Unit is designed to extend the accuracy of oscilloscope voltage measurements. Highly adaptable, the unit can be used in three modes of operation: as a conventional preamplifier, as a differential-input preamplifier, or as a calibrated differential comparator.
    Sensitivity is 50 mV/cm. Dynamic range is ±100 volts. The effective scale length is ±2000 cm—hence, the resolution is a maximum of 0.005%. The high accuracy of the dc comparison voltage assures precise voltage measurements.
    With the Type Z in a Tektronix plug-in oscilloscope, calibrated -dc comparison voltages can be added differentially to the input waveform via the slide-back technique. Input waveform can have an instantaneous rate of rise to 1 volt in 7 nsec, and an instantaneous rate of fall to 1 volt in 5 nsec. A 100-volt waveform can be displayed incrementally with high resolution (of 0.05 V/cm).
    The dynamic range of the unit permits common-mode signals up to 100 volts to be applied to the amplifier without attenuation.
