Tektronix Technologies has introduced a 6-series MSO mixed-signal oscilloscope. The new mixed-signal oscilloscope boosts the performance of the mid-range oscilloscope to 8 GHz, achieving a 25 GS/s sampling rate on all four channels, creating an industry-leading oscilloscope. First, it meets the needs of designers to develop faster, more complex embedded systems. With 25 GS/s sampling rates on all channels, designers can now accurately view up to four high-speed signals at once, such as A single DDR3 clock channel and three DDR3 data channels can be viewed and analyzed simultaneously, reducing the time spent on fully characterizing the design compared to instruments that use a single instrument to share the sampling system between different channels.
The new 6 Series MSOs also offer multiple low noise inputs, especially in the most critical ultra-high sensitivity designs, which increase measurement confidence. For example, modern embedded designs require clean, precisely controlled DC power supplies for ASICs and FPGAs. The device delivers signals. For these applications, the Series 6 MSO allows designers to measure DC power with higher resolution and accuracy, reducing the time it takes to understand the source of high frequency effects on the power supply in the design.
