tektronix tds3000 series digital phosphor oscilloscopes

Performance You Need at a Price You Can Afford

Performance in an Affordable Package

The TDS3000C Series digital phosphor oscilloscopes (DPO) provide you with the performance you need at a price you can afford. Bandwidths range from 100 MHz to 500 MHz, with up to 5 GS/s sample rates for accurate representation of your signal.

DPOs Provide a Greater Level of Insight into Complex Signals

To solve a problem, first you need to see it. The TDS3000C Series combines 3,600 wfms/s continuous waveform capture rate and real-time intensity grading so you can see the problem and solve it.

Fast waveform capture rates on a continuous basis save time by quickly revealing the nature of faults so advanced triggers can be applied to isolate them.

Real-time intensity grading highlights the details about the history of a signal’s activity, making it easier to understand the characteristics of the waveforms you’ve captured. Unlike other comparable oscilloscopes, the history remains even after the acquisition is stopped.

Quickly Debug and Characterize Signals with DRT Sampling Technology and sin(x)/x Interpolation

The TDS3000C Series combines unique digital real-time (DRT) sampling technology with sin(x)/x interpolation to allow you to accurately characterize a wide range of signal types on all channels simultaneously. With the TDS3000C Series there is no change in sampling rate when additional channels are turned on, unlike other comparable oscilloscopes. This sampling technology makes it possible to capture high-frequency information, such as glitches and edge anomalies, that elude other oscilloscopes in its class, while sin(x)/x interpolation ensures precise reconstruction of each waveform


Look for unintentional circuit noise with the TDS3000C Series’ FFT capability.	Custom video triggering allows the TDS3000C Series to trigger on standards such as RS-343 (26.2 kHz scan rate).	The TDS3000C Series provides breakthrough test speeds for telecommunications line card testing. The telecom QUICKMENU puts all the commonly used telecom test functions on a single menu.

TThe TDS3000C Series with the TDS3LIM module is ideal for manufacturing test applications where fast Go/No-Go decisions are required.	Trace and identify ITU-R BT.601 video signals with the TDS3SDI 601 Serial Digital Video Module.	WaveAlert waveform anomaly detection alerts you to any waveform that deviates from the “normal” input such as the glitch on channel 2.
