Tektronix TEKFAX ADA400A User manual

FAXable Data Sheet
ow low level differen-
tial measurements
can be made on any Tek
scope. The ADA400A pre-
amplifier is perfect for low
frequency differential mea-
surements or low ampli-
tude, single ended mea-
surements with lots of
noise.
The ADA400A preamplifier
is designed for biophysical
research and mechanical
transducer, medical diag-
nostic, and imaging equip-
ment design, as well as
audio equipment design
applications.
