Tektronix 6 series mixed signal oscilloscope

The Tektronix 6 series mixed signal oscilloscope extends the performance threshold of mid-range oscilloscopes to 8 GHz and delivers a 25 GS/s sample rate simultaneously on all four channels, to accommodate the needs of designers working on fast, complex embedded systems designs.

With a 25 GS/s sample rate on all channels, designers can view up to four high-speed signals at one time. For example, a DDR3 clock and three DDR3 data channels can be viewed and analysed simultaneously, decreasing the time it takes to fully characterise a design with an instrument that shares sampling systems between channels.

The MSO also boosts measurement confidence with its low-noise inputs, especially at high-sensitivity settings where it matters most. For example, modern embedded designs require clean, precisely controlled DC power supplies to feed ASIC and FPGA devices. For such applications, the MSO enables designers to measure DC power rails with more resolution, reducing the time it takes to understand high-frequency influencers on power rails in a design.

Based on the same platform as the 5 Series MSO, the 6 Series provides easy upgradeability for long-term investment protection.
