Tektronix 4 Series B Mixed Signal Oscilloscope boosts power processing
Tektronix and Fortive have launched an updated version of the 4 Series mixed signal oscilloscope which doubles the responsiveness of the onboard processor.
The Tektronix 4 Series B MSO provides measurement bandwidths from 200 MHz to 1.5 GHz, real-time sampling at 6.25 GS/s and up to 16-bit vertical resolution for power measurements. It also includes the same 13.3in touch user interface, but with an upgraded processor system.
“The 4 Series B MSO was engineered to enable designers to analyze their systems faster to combat time-to-market pressure,” said Daryl Ellis, Tektronix Mainstream Portfolio General Manager. “The user interface, designed for touch, is intuitive, informative, and now more responsive.”
The 4 Series B MSO is available with up to six input channels, making it suited for three-phase power analysis, and exclusive Spectrum View provides multi-channel spectrum analysis in sync with time domain waveforms.
Along with accelerating front-panel operation, the upgraded processor system also speeds up remote operation. The MSO can be remotely accessed and controlled using a simple web browser, dedicated TekScope PC software, or custom program via a full programming interface.
The increased performance improves the ‘time to answer’ across 25 serial decode packages for inter-chip, automotive, power, aerospace buses, and more. It also speeds up algorithms and plotting used in existing analysis packages for power supply measurements, motor drive analysis, and double pulse testing.
“This instrument provides accuracy and analysis capabilities that make it ideal for challenges faced every day by design engineers, such as signal chain debugging, power analysis, protocol analysis, and noise analysis—to name a few,” said Jeffrey Miller, 4 Series Product Planner. “What sets the 4 Series B MSO apart from the rest is the premier user experience and faster analysis capabilities.”
The Tektronix 4 Series B MSO is now available globally.
