The Tektronix TLA714 is a color portable logic analyzer mainframe. It acts as the configurable base for a portable test instrument, holding up to four C-size instrument modules from the TLA 700 Series. Powered by a 266 MHz Intel Pentium with MMX processor and running a Windows-based operating system, it integrates logic analysis and digital storage oscilloscope capabilities with a built-in color flat-panel display and standard PC-like connectivity.
