New Tektronix Entry-Level Oscilloscope

By DE Editors

Tektronix introduced the MSO/DPO2000B Series of oscilloscopes that the company says put advanced debug features within reach of engineers and educators.

The 12-model MSO/DPO2000B Series features bandwidths from 70 MHz to 200 MHz. With 1 M point record lengths, these oscilloscopes help to find events of interest in long records using the company’s Wave Inspector to perform manual or automated search.
 
The series will give customers using Tektronix TDS2000 Series oscilloscopes an upgrade path to a more capable instrument with such features as a 7-inch widescreen display, 1 GS/s sampling rate on all channels and a flexible TekVPI probe interface, the company says. The new oscilloscopes can also be used in education environments where instructors need to keep the classroom and lab experience consistent with real-world industry trends.
 
Other features include decode, trigger and search support for common serial buses including I2C, SPI, RS-232, CAN and LIN. The oscilloscopes also provide triggers to capture anomalies in digital systems including runt pulses, setup and hold violations and rise or fall time violations.
