Experience unparalleled signal fidelity and advanced analysis features with the Tektronix MSO5204B Mixed Signal Oscilloscope. Designed for high-performance applications, this oscilloscope boasts a robust 2 GHz bandwidth and a 10 GS/s sample rate, making it ideal for today’s high-speed data rates and stringent timing requirements.
With a user-friendly Windows®-based interface, the MSO5204B allows seamless execution of sophisticated analysis software directly on the device. Its Point and Click Visual Triggers enable quick and easy capture of complex signals, while the instrument's capability to decode common serial protocols provides a comprehensive view of your system's performance.
Mixed Signal Design and Analysis
The Tektronix MSO5204B is equipped with 16 digital channels that integrate tightly into the oscilloscope's interface, facilitating straightforward operation and the efficient resolution of mixed-signal challenges. Included with your purchase are four TPP01000 probes, offering up to 1 GHz of analog bandwidth and minimizing circuit loading with less than 4 pF of capacitive loading. This enables accurate signal observations critical for high-speed applications.
Impressive Record Length
Capture numerous events of interest effortlessly, with a stunning record length of up to 250 M points. Unlike many oscilloscopes in its class, the MSO5204B allows for flexible setup of record length and sampling rate to achieve optimal resolution.
Fast Discovery Features
Leverage the industry’s most comprehensive performance to swiftly capture and isolate events. The proprietary FastAcq™ technology offers waveform capture rates exceeding 250,000 waveforms per second, enabling quick visibility into glitches and infrequent transients. The Segmented Memory mode allows selection of up to 290,000 memory segments, with a trigger capture rate surpassing 310,000 triggers per second.
MagniVu™ High-Speed Acquisition
The Tektronix MSO5204B features a primary acquisition mode capable of capturing up to 40 M points at 500 MS/s (2 ns resolution). For ultra-high resolution, the MagniVu mode captures 10,000 points at 16.5 GS/s (60.6 ps resolution). Both waveforms can be displayed at any time, providing unparalleled insight and control.
Innovative Navigation and Searching Capabilities
Utilize the Wave Inspector® controls for advanced search and navigation through waveforms. The system’s unique force-feedback allows rapid movement through long recordings, enhancing analysis capabilities. The Visual Trigger and Search functionality significantly streamline the identification of specific waveform events through shape recognition.
