For a TekSelect product will the option being added get the same discount as the main unit? Yes, for soft options activated by a keycode or dongle as long as the unit has not already been reconditioned (those with a 1 week or less delivery). Eligible soft options are outlined in a note on the TekSelect availability list. The option must be...	835666
For TekSelect products when are installation charges applied to option additions? Installation charges will normally apply for option additions to units that have already been reconditioned (units that show a 1 week or less delivery). Installation charges will not be incurred if we install the option during the reconditioning...	835667
How are datagrams transmitted using multiprotocol encapsulation? The data broadcast specification profile for multiprotocol encapsulation supports data broadcast services that require the transmission of datagrams of communication protocols via DVB compliant broadcast networks. The transmission of datagrams... This FAQ applies to: MTS4SA, MTS400, MTS430, MTM400, MTS4EA, MTX100B, RTX130B	835668
How can I communicate to a Tektronix instrument with Unix or Linux? The Tektronix version of VISA (TekVisa) is supported only under Windows and so for communication with Unix or Linux operating system would require another VISA such as National Instruments VISA or NI-VISA.	835669
How can I communicate to my scope with Labview? Please see the information in the Software Developers Kit, which can be found here.	835670
How can I contact someone about purchasing a TekSelect product? In the US/Canada: (800) 833-9200 , option 1. Contact information for outside US/Canada is available here.	835671
How can I test a MOSFET for drain-source breakdown voltage on my curve tracer? Drain-Source Breakdown Voltage - V(br)DSSWhat It Is:Drain-source breakdown voltage is the VDS at which a specified value of ID flows, with VGS=0. Since it's the reverse current through a pinched-off channel, ID exhibits a knee shaped rise,...	835672
How can I test a MOSFET for Drain-Source On-Resistance on my curve tracer? Drain-Source On-Resistance - RDS(on)What It Is:Drain-source on-resistance is the resistance between drain and source with a specified VGS applied to bias the device to the on-state. The measurement is made in the ohmic (i.e. linear) region of the...	835673
How can I test a MOSFET for Forward Gate Body Leakage Current on my curve tracer? Zero Gate Voltage Drain Current - IDSS What It Is:Zero gate voltage drain current is the ID that flows when VGS=0. It’s the on-state current in a depletion mode MOSFET and the off-state current in an enhancement mode MOSFET.On the curve tracer, the...	835674
How can I test a MOSFET for Gate Threshold Voltage on my curve tracer? Gate Threshold Voltage - VGS(th) What It Is:Gate threshold voltage is the lowest VGS at which a specified small amount of ID flows. The test is run with VGS = VDS.On the curve tracer, the Collector Supply provides VDS. Patch cords are used to...	835675
