Unmatched Acquisition Performance
Signal Fidelity of Tektronix Oscilloscopes Ensures Confidence
in Your Measurement Results
- High sample rate on all
models, on all channels, to capture more signal details (transients,
imperfections, fast edges)
- 40 GS/s on one channel on
the 2.5 GHz and 3.5 GHz models
- Option 2SR to double the maximum
real-time sample rate for the 1 GHz model
- High bandwidth up to 3.5 GHz, matched across 2, 3, or 4 channels
and enabled by Tektronix proprietary DSP enhancement. The user-selectable
DSP filter on each channel provides magnitude and phase correction
plus extension to 3.5 GHz for more accurate signal fidelity for complex
measurements. The DSP filter on each channel can also be switched
off to take advantage of true 2.5 GHz analog bandwidth for applications
needing the highest available raw data capture.
- The DPO7000
Series oscilloscopes include as a standard feature a series of user-selectable
bandwidth limit filters. These filters preserve the instrument’s bandwidth
roll-off characteristics, flatness, and phase linearity within the
new frequency range, thereby reducing the effects of out-of-band noise
on measurements. Now, designers can purchase one instrument for their
highest bandwidth needs and easily optimize it to handle lower-frequency
measurements as well.
User-selectable bandwidth
limiting choices.
- Very low jitter noise floor
and vertical accuracy for very accurate measurements
- Long
acquisition to provide more resolution and longer time sequence
- Standard 10 million data points per channel on the DPO7000
Series
- Optional up to 500 million total data points on 2.5 GHz
and 3.5 GHz models
- Optional up to 250 million total data
points on the 500 MHz and 1 GHz models
- Easily manage this
deep record length, provide detailed comparison and analysis of multiple
waveform segments with the MultiView Zoom™ feature. Automatically
scroll through deep records visually, or create a math expression
to instantly highlight differences
Zoom in on four areas of interest simultaneously to compare
them.
- Highest-performance probing solutions
for differential and single-ended voltage signals as well as current
measurement, because accurate design verification depends on high-bandwidth
access to critical signals and high-fidelity signal capture
Tektronix active probes achieve high-speed signal acquisition
and measurement fidelity.
Unmatched Versatility
Get the Most of Your Oscilloscope by Fully Controlling its Waveform
Acquisition and Display Parameters
3 modes of operation
of the horizontal time base.
You have the choice
of three horizontal time base modes of operation. If you are simply
doing signal exploration and want to interact with a lively signal,
you will use the Automatic or interactive default mode that
provides you with the liveliest display update rate. If you want a
precise measurement and the highest real-time sample rate that will
give you the most measurement accuracy, then the Constant Sample
Rate mode is for you. It will maintain the highest sample rate
and provide the best real-time resolution. The last mode is called
the Manual mode because it ensures direct and independent control
of the sample rate and record length.
With the MyScope® Feature, Create Your Own Control Windows with Only the Controls,
Features, and Capabilities that You Care About
Drag and drop menu items of interest to create the MyScope
control window.
Easily create your own personalized
"toolbox" of oscilloscope features in a matter of minutes using a
simple, visual, drag-and-drop process. Once created, these custom
control windows are easily accessed through a dedicated MyScope button
and menu selection on the oscilloscope button/menu bar, just like
any other control window. You can make an unlimited number of custom
control windows, enabling each person who uses the oscilloscope in
a shared environment to have their own unique control window. MyScope
control windows will benefit all oscilloscope users, eliminating the
ramp-up time that many face when returning to the lab after not using
an oscilloscope for a while, and enables the power user to be far
more efficient. Everything you need is found in one control window
rather than having to constantly navigate through menu after menu
to repeat similar tasks.
With OpenChoice® Software,

of the instrument over the internet. Using the fast embedded bus,
waveform data can be moved directly from acquisition to analysis applications
on the Windows desktop at much faster speeds than conventional GPIB
transfers. Implementation by Tektronix of industry-standard protocols,
such as TekVISA™ interface and ActiveX controls, are included for
using and enhancing Windows applications for data analysis and documentation.
Support for the DPO7000 Series is also available with NI LabVIEW SignalExpress™
Tektronix Edition. IVI-COM instrument drivers are included to enable
easy communication with the oscilloscope using GPIB, serial data,
and LAN connections from programs running on the instrument or an
external PC. Or, use the Software Developer’s Kit (SDK) to help create
custom software to automate multistep processes in waveform collection
and analysis with Visual BASIC, C, C++, MATLAB, LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI,
and other common Application Development Environments (ADE). Integration
of the oscilloscope with external PCs and non-Windows hosts is also
supported by the DPO7000 Series software solutions. In addition, the
OpenChoice architecture provides a comprehensive software infrastructure
for faster, more versatile operations. Data transfer programs, such
as the Excel or Word toolbar, are used to simplify analysis and documentation
on the Windows desktop or on an external PC.
Accelerate the
Debug of Complex Electrical Designs
FastAcq Acquisition Mode
Expedites Debugging by Clearly Showing Imperfections
Maximize the probability of capturing elusive glitches and
other infrequent events with FastAcq acquisition mode.
More than just color grading, FastAcq enabled by Tektronix
proprietary DPX® acquisition technology captures signals
up to more than 250,000 waveforms per second on all 4 channels simultaneously,
dramatically increasing the probability of discovering infrequent
fault events. And with a simple turn of the intensity knob you can
clearly see “a world others don’t see,” because frequency of occurrence
is color coded. Some oscilloscope vendors claim high waveform capture
rates for short bursts of time, but only the DPO7000 Series, enabled
by DPX technology, can deliver these fast waveform capture rates on
a sustained basis – saving minutes, hours, or even days by quickly
revealing the nature of faults so sophisticated trigger modes can
be applied to isolate them.
The Ability to Trigger an Oscilloscope
on Events of Interest is Paramount in Complex Signal Debug and Validation
Isolate glitches down to 200 ps wide.
Isolate Setup and Hold violations down to 360 ps.
Whether you’re trying to find a system error or need
to isolate a section of a complex signal for further analysis, like
a DDR Read or Write burst, Tektronix Pinpoint® triggering
provides the solution. The Pinpoint trigger system uses Silicon Germanium
(SiGe) technology to provide trigger sensitivity of up to the bandwidth
of the instrument, and allows selection of most trigger types on both
A and B trigger circuits. It can capture very narrow glitches with
very little trigger jitter. Other trigger systems offer multiple trigger
types only on a single event (A event), with delayed trigger (B event)
selection limited to edge-type triggering and often do not provide
a way to reset the trigger sequence if the B event doesn’t occur.
But Pinpoint triggering provides a full suite of advance trigger types
on both A and B triggers with Reset triggering to begin the trigger
sequence again after a specified time, state, or transition so that
even events in the most complex signals can be captured. Other oscilloscopes
typically offer less than 20 trigger combinations; Pinpoint triggering
offers over 1400 combinations, all at full performance.
With
Enhanced Triggering, you can choose to compensate for the difference
in time there is between the trigger path and the display path and
eliminate virtually any trigger jitter at the trigger point. In this
mode, the trigger point can be used as a measurement reference.
Trigger on the Most Relevant Bit Sequence of the Industry-standard
Serial Bus
Easily trigger on a specific
I
2C address.
I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) triggering is a standard feature and
includes Start Condition, Missing Acknowledge, Restart, Data Read,
Address, and/or Data Frame, in a 10 bit or 7 bit format with a specific
selection to choose whether or not to include the R/W bit.
SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) triggering is a standard
feature and includes triggering on a data pattern within a user-definable
frame.
RS-232 triggering is a standard feature.
CAN (Controller Area Network) triggering is an optional
feature (Opt. LSA) and includes synchronization to the Start or End
of a CAN frame on any CAN high or CAN low signal, triggering on Type
of Frame (Data, Remote, Overload), Identifier, Data, Missing Acknowledge,
and Bit Stuffing error.

standards like 1080i, 1080p, 720p, and 480p as well as standard video
triggering on any line within a field, all lines, all fields, odd
or even fields for NTSC, SECAM, and PAL video signals. In addition,
IRE and mV graticules can be selected for easier measurements and
visual inspection. This is a standard feature.
Serial pattern triggering to debug pattern-dependent issues.
Serial Pattern Triggering for NRZ serial
data streams with built-in clock recovery (available on models DPO7254
and DPO7354 only) to debug serial architectures. The instrument can
recover the clock signal, identify the transitions, and decode characters
and other protocol data. With the combination of the Serial Trigger
and Protocol Decode software, you can see the captured bit sequences
decoded into their words for convenient analysis (for 8b/10b and other
encoded serial data streams), or you can set the desired encoded words
for the serial pattern trigger to capture. This serial trigger option
covers NRZ serial standards up to 1.25 Gb/s.
Pattern Lock
Triggering adds a new dimension to NRZ serial pattern triggering
by enabling the oscilloscope to take synchronized acquisitions of
a long serial test pattern with outstanding time base accuracy. Pattern
lock triggering can be used to remove random jitter from long serial
data patterns. Effects of specific bit transitions can be investigated,
and averaging can be used with mask testing. This feature is included
as part of Option PTM on the DPO7254 and 7354 models.
Unmatched
Usability
The TekVPI™ probe interface provides versatility
and ease of use enabled by intelligent bidirectional oscilloscope-to-probe
communication.

and contain a comprehensive suite of features such as a touch screen,
shallow menu structures, intuitive graphical icons, knob-per-channel
vertical controls, support for right mouse clicks, mouse wheel improvements,
saving of waveforms and measurements available in Preview mode, and
Export/Save/Recall menu improvements.
Interoperability with
Logic Analyzers for Digital Design and Debug
An integrated toolset for digital design and troubleshooting.
The Tektronix Integrated View (iView™) data display
enables digital designers to solve signal integrity challenges and
effectively debug and verify their systems more quickly and easily.
This integration allows designers to view time-correlated digital
and analog data in the same display window, and isolate the analog
characteristics of the digital signals that are causing systems failures.
No user calibration is required. And, once set up, the iView feature
is completely automated.

Advanced Analysis, Jitter, Timing, and Eye Diagram
Measurements
Advanced Analysis, Jitter,
Timing, and Eye Diagram Measurements
Tight
timing margins associated with today’s serial buses demand stable,
low-jitter designs. DPO7000 models include an Essentials version of
the DPOJET software package that extends the oscilloscope’s measurement
capabilities by making measurements over contiguous clock and data
cycles in a single-shot real-time acquisition. DPOJET Essentials adds
multiple measurements, including Time Interval Error, Phase Noise,
Skew, Setup and Hold timing, Duty Cycle, Period, Positive/Negative
Width, and others, and provides the ability to measure key jitter
and timing parameters to help characterize possible system timing
issues. Analysis tools such as plots for time trends and histograms
quickly show how timing parameters change over time, like frequency
drift, PLL startup transients, or a circuit’s response to power supply
changes. Spectrum analysis quickly shows the precise frequency and
amplitude of jitter and modulation sources.
Further analysis
can be added with DPOJET Advanced (Option DJA) that offers extended
capabilities, providing a complete suite of analysis tools for insight
into jitter and timing as well as other signal quality issues. To
the basic jitter and timing measurements described above, DJA adds
advanced tools such as Rj/Dj separation, eye diagram masks, and Pass/Fail
limits for conformance testing. DPOJET Advanced is the measurement
framework that underlies several other Tektronix standards-specific
compliance test packages for applications such as DDR memory and USB.
