TDS1000B Series Oscilloscopes

Instantly Productive. Incredibly Easy.

The TDS1000B Series digital storage oscilloscopes deliver an unbeatable combination of performance and ease of use, at a price you can afford.

Affordable Digital Precision

With up to 100 MHz bandwidth and 1 GS/s maximum sample rate, no other digital storage oscilloscope offers as much bandwidth and sample rate for the price. The TDS1000B Series oscilloscopes provide accurate real-time acquisition up to their full bandwidth, the same record length at all time base settings, advanced triggers to isolate signals of interest, and 12 standard automatic measurements on all models. Their Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and waveform add, subtract, and multiply math functions allow you to analyze, characterize, and troubleshoot circuits.

Quick and Easy Waveform Capture

Quickly and easily capture waveforms.

The simple user interface with classic analog-style controls makes these instruments easy to use, reducing learning time and increasing efficiency. Innovative features such as the Autoset Menu, Probe Check Wizard, and Context-sensitive Help Menu optimize instrument setup and operation.

Flexible Data Transfer

Conveniently use your USB flash drive to store screenshots and waveform data.

With USB host and device ports which enable removable data storage, seamless PC connectivity, and direct printing, no other digital storage oscilloscope offers as much flexibility and ease of data transfer for the price.

Simple Documentation and Analysis

Easily capture, save, and analyze measurement results with OpenChoice PC Communications Software.

Easily capture, save, and analyze measurement results with OpenChoice PC Communications Software. Simply pull screen images and waveform data into the stand-alone desktop application or directly into Microsoft Word and Excel. To complement OpenChoice, National Instruments SignalExpress Tektronix Edition Software provides you with extended capabilities, including advanced analysis, remote oscilloscope control, and live waveform analysis. Alternatively, if you prefer not to use the PC, you can simply print your image directly to any PictBridge-compatible printer using the USB device port.

Performance You Can Count On

Depend on Tektronix to provide you with performance you can count on. In addition to industry-leading service and support, every TDS1000B Series oscilloscope comes backed with a Lifetime Warranty*¹ as standard.
