HP® 8566 / 8568 COLOR LCD Retrofit Kit Part # 85662A-LCD-RK

Our 8566 TFT LCD Retrofit Kit revitalizes your 8566 / 8568 spectrum analyzer by replacing your aging CRT with a brand new, state-of-the-art TFT color LCD. The LCD system interfaces the 8566 video memory directly, producing a crisp, clear digital picture. Our interface is transparent to the existing electronics, and all features and capabilities of the old CRT display are preserved.

Note: The 8566B kits are not fully compatible with the 85685 preselector.
