Some Analog Oscilloscopes have two independent triggers for A and B. They are used to for troubleshooting TTL and CMOS logic circuits that have read, write, control enable problems on the logic board. Since the read and write signals are opposite polarity that is why they made analog oscilloscopes using two independent triggering.
CH#1 goes to the control enable to the RAM, Oscope Trigger B is Positive Polarity slope
CH#2 goes to the Chip Enable , Oscope Trigger A is Negative Polarity slope
CH#3 goes to the Read signal to the RAM , Oscope Trigger A is Negative polarity slope
CH#4 goes to the Write signal to the RAM , Oscope Trigger B is Positive polarity slope
Read is a logic low
Write is a logic high
Have you seen technicians do something like this to troubleshooting TTL/CMOS logic boards? or troubleshooting RAM/ROM read and write faults on logic boards
