Information
Acquisition Features
Separate Digitizers. Ensure accurate timing measurements
with separate digitizers
for each channel. Acquisition on multiple channels is always
concurrent. The
digitizers can also be combined to yield a higher sample
rate on a single channel.
Fast Acquisition. Acquire up to 400,000 waveforms per second
to see rapidly
changing signals or intermittent signal irregularities.
Long Record Lengths. Choose record lengths from 500 points up to
500,000 points per channel (up 2,000,000 points on a single
channel). Extend the
maximum record length up to a maximum of 64,000,000 points
with memory
options.
Peak Detect Acquisition Mode. See pulses as narrow as 400 ps
even at the slower
time base settings. Peak detect helps you see noise and
glitches in your signal.
Acquisition Control. Acquire continuously or set up to
capture single shot
acquisitions. Enable or disable optional acquisition
features such as equivalent
time or roll mode. Use Fast Frame acquisition to capture and
time stamp many
events in a rapid sequence.
Horizontal Delay. Use delay when you want to acquire a
signal at a significant
time interval after the trigger point. Toggle delay on and
off to quickly compare
the signal at two different points in time.
Optical-to-Electrical Converter.
CSA7000B Series only. Test
optical signals using
the integrated optical-to-electrical converter and a fully
calibrated signal path.
Recovered clock and data signals are available. Optical
reference receivers are
available for selected optical communications standards.
SignalProcessing
Features
Average, Envelope, and Hi Res Acquisition. Use Average
acquisition mode to
remove uncorrelated noise from your signal. Use Envelope to
capture and
display the maximum variation of the signal. Use Hi Res to
increase vertical
resolution for lower bandwidth signals.
Waveform Math. Set up simple math waveforms using the basic
arithmetic
functions or create more advanced math waveforms using the
math expression
editor. Waveform expressions can even contain measurement
results and other
math waveforms.
Spectral Analysis. Display spectral magnitude and phase
waveforms based on
your time-domain acquisitions. Control the instrument using
the traditional
spectrum analyzer controls such as span and center frequency.
Display Features
Color LCD Display. Identify and differentiate waveforms
easily with color coding.
Waveforms, readouts, and inputs are color matched to
increase productivity and
reduce operating errors. Enhance visualization of waveforms
with color grading.
Digital Phosphor. The instrument can clearly display
intensity modulation in your
signals. The instrument automatically overlays subsequent
acquisitions and then
decays them to simulate the writing and decay of the
phosphor in an analog
instrument CRT. The feature results in an intensity-graded
or color-graded
waveform display that shows the information in the intensity
modulation.
Fit to Screen. The Digital Phosphor technology performs the
compression
required to represent all record points on the screen, even
at the maximum record
length settings.
MultiView Zoom. To take advantage of the full resolution of
the instrument you
can zoom in on a waveform to see the fine details. Both
vertical and horizontal
zoom functions are available. Zoomed waveforms can be
aligned, locked, and
automatically scrolled.
Measurement Features
Cursors. Use cursors to take simple voltage, time, and
frequency measurements.
Automatic Measurements. Choose from a large palette of
amplitude, time, and
histogram measurements. You can customize the measurements
by changing
reference levels or by adding measurement gating.
Mask Testing. Optional on TDS7000B Series. Provides mask
testing for verifying
compliance to optical (CSA7000B Series only) and electrical
standards. Optical
mask testing uses integrated reference receivers.
Trigger Features
Simple and Advanced Trigger Types. Choose simple edge
trigger or choose from
eight advanced trigger types to help you capture a specific
signal fault or event.
Dual Triggers. Use the A (main) trigger system alone or add
the B trigger to
capture more complex events. You can use the A and B
triggers together to set
up a delay-by-time or delay-by-events trigger condition.
Comm Triggers. Optional on TDS7000B Series. Use comm
triggers to trigger on
communication signals.
Serial Triggers. Optional on TDS7000B Series. Use serial
triggers to trigger on
serial pattern data.
Recovered Clock and Data Triggers. Use recovered clock and
data internally to
trigger your waveforms. They are also available externally
(CSA7000B Series
only).
Convenience Features
Autoset. Use Autoset to quickly set up the vertical,
horizontal, and trigger
controls for a usable display. If a standard mask is active
(optional on TDS7000B
Series), Autoset adjusts the selected waveform to match the
mask, if possible.
Touch Screen Interface. You can operate all instrument
functions (except the
power switch and the touch screen enable/disable switch)
from the touch screen
interface. If convenient, you can also install a mouse and
keyboard to use the
interface.
Toolbar or Menu Bar. You can choose a toolbar operating mode
that is optimized
for use with the touch screen, or a PC-style menu bar
operating mode that is
optimized for use with a mouse.
