Tektronix MSO/DPO4000 Series vs. LeCroy WaveSurfer XS Fact Sheet


Serial Triggering and Decode
Tektronix MSO/DPO3000 Series
✔ Simple time-correlated and labeled bus form display with color coded decode
✔ Wave Inspector® controls quickly navigate through long records to find events of interest.
✔ Large easy to read tabular view with timestamp.
✔ Highlighting a packet centers the YT display on that packet.
✔ Serial search completely integrated into Wave Inspector search.
Serial Triggering and Decode
LeCroy WaveSurfer Xs-A Series
Overlaid color coding obscures waveforms, is difficult to read, and waveforms are not automatically labeled.
Zoom uses multiple zoom windows with multiplexed front panel controls. Very difficult to view two decoded buses in same graticule.
Table of packets in lower half of display only.
✔ Highlighting a packet centers the YT display on that packet.
Serial search is completely separate from WaveScan search.
