Uncompromised
Performance Oscilloscope Solution – Probing, Acquisition, Analysis,
Compliance, and Debug
TDS6000B/C Series digital storage oscilloscopes
provide unprecedented performance along with a complete feature set
designed to address design validation, debug, and compliance challenges
of next-generation computer, datacom, and communications equipment.
High bandwidth, high sample rate, and deep memory also provide the
ideal solution for data acquisition applications.
Uncompromised
Acquisition
You won’t need to need to trade off bandwidth,
record length, and sample rate for your serial data measurement and
analysis needs. The TDS6000C DSOs provides acquisition architecture
with 40 GS/s maximum sample rate and 64 Megasamples record length
on two channels (20 GS/s and 32 Megasamples on each of the four channels
simultaneously), for the acquisition power you need. They provide
the ultimate combination of bandwidth, sample rate, and record length
for the fastest signals. The TDS6154C provides matched 15 GHz performance
across any two channels using advanced, Tektronix-proprietary DSP
enhancement, important for high-speed channel-channel measurements.
The user-selectable DSP filter on each channel provides magnitude
and phase correction, plus extension of the analog bandwidth to 15 GHz
for more accurate signal fidelity on high-speed measurements – easily
capturing the fifth harmonic of 3.0 GHz embedded clocks used in next-generation
6.0 Gb/s serial data standards, and even the third harmonic of 5 GHz
clocks being developed for future systems. The DSP filter on each
channel can also be switched off to take advantage of true 12 GHz
analog bandwidth for applications needing the highest available raw
data capture.
MyScope® Custom-control Windows
MyScope control windows allow you to build your own control windows
with only the controls, features, and capabilities that you care about
and are important in your job. For the first time you can create your
own personalized “toolbox” of oscilloscope features. No longer do
you need to search through menus for features or relearn how to drive
the oscilloscope after a break from the lab. MyScope control windows
are easily created in a matter of minutes using a simple, visual,
drag-and-drop process. Once created, these customized windows are
easily accessed through a dedicated MyScope button and menu selection
on the oscilloscope button/menu bar, just like any other control window.
You can make an unlimited number of custom control windows, enabling
each person who uses the oscilloscope, in a shared environment, to
have their own unique control window. Since the control windows are
stored as files on the hard drive, they can easily be transferred
to other TDS5000B or TDS/CSA7000B Series oscilloscopes, or they can
even be e-mailed to a coworker around the world when the need arises.
MyScope control windows will benefit all oscilloscope users, from
eliminating the ramp-up time that many face when returning to the
lab after not using an oscilloscope for a while, to the power user
who can now operate far more efficiently. Everything you need is found
in one control window rather than having to constantly navigate through
menu after menu to repeat similar tasks.
Right Clicks
Right-mouse-click menus make simple things as they should be
– simple. Right-click menus are context sensitive, meaning the choices
presented in the menu depend on where you right clicked the mouse.
This makes right-click menus extremely intuitive. Want to change the
cursor type? Right click on a cursor or the cursor readouts. Want
to change the reference levels of an automatic measurement? Right
click on the measurement. Want to change trigger parameters? Right
click on the trigger readouts. Want to change a waveform’s color?
Right click on the waveform handle. Virtually all objects on the oscilloscope
display have right-click menus associated with them that include all
the appropriate actions or features relative to those objects. There
are also right-click menus for regions of the display in addition
to just objects. For example, right clicking in the main graticule
brings up a menu with choices such as Clear Data, Default Setup, Autoset,
Screen Captures, Save All Waveforms, and Add Screen Text, providing
single-click access to many of your most commonly performed tasks.
Pinpoint™ Triggering
Trigger on glitches down
to 100 ps wide.
Pinpoint trigger system
provides the most advanced, highest performance triggering available.
The ability to trigger an oscilloscope on events
of interest is paramount in high-speed debug and validation. Whether
you're trying to find a system error, or need to isolate a section
of a complex signal for further analysis, Tektronix’ Pinpoint triggering
provides the solution. The Pinpoint trigger system uses Silicon Germanium
(SiGe) technology to provide trigger sensitivity of up to 9 GHz (TDS6000C
models), and allows selection of all trigger types on both A and B
trigger circuits. It can capture glitches down to 100 ps wide with
1 psRMS trigger jitter typical (TDS6000C models). Other
trigger systems offer multiple trigger types only on a single event
(A Event), with delayed trigger (B Event) selection limited to edge-type
triggering and often does not provide a way to reset the trigger sequence
if the B Event doesn't occur. But Pinpoint triggering provides the
full suite of advance trigger types on both A and B triggers with
Reset triggering to begin the trigger sequence again after a specified
time, state, or transition so that even events in the most complex
signals can be captured. Other oscilloscopes typically offer less
than 20 trigger combinations; Pinpoint triggering offers over 1400
combinations, all at full performance.
Protocol Triggering
and Decoding Software (Opt. PTD)
Decode 8b/10b data streams
and set up to 4 data words (40 bits) to trigger on.
Easily decode 8b/10b and other encoded serial data streams,
and set desired encoded words for the serial pattern trigger to capture.
8b/10b decoding on data rates over 10 GB/s is possible on the TDS6000C
models. Option PTD recovers the clock signal, identifies the transitions,
and decodes the characters and other protocol data. The TDS6000C models
can trigger on up to four consecutive 10 bit words or specified error
conditions at data rates up to 3.125 Gb/s. And you can see the captured
bit sequences decoded into their words for convenient analysis.
Unparalleled Analysis
Waveform data analysis can take
many forms. Whether it’s a simple math expression, waveform mask testing,
a pass/fail compliance test, or a custom application that you develop,
the TDS6000B/C Series offer the industry's most comprehensive set
of analysis and compliance tools.
Built-in Analysis Tools
Measurement System. Enables over 50 parametric
measurements in the amplitude, time, and statistical domain.
8.5 Gb/s TDSRT-Eye™ diagram on the TDS6154C.
Waveform Math Equation Editor. Enables boundless

Validation, debug, and compliance testing often require
automated test tools that quickly analyze waveform data and provide
the answers you need. The TDS6000B/C models provide complete “turn-key”
solutions for the most demanding technologies. Software options are
also available for performing validation and compliance measurements
on emerging industry standards.

Differential
Probing with Performance to >12 GHz
P7313 12.5 GHz
and P7380 8 GHz Differential Probes.
Most high-speed
signals today are differential. The P7313 12.5 GHz Differential Probing
System provides true differential connection to the device under test
for a variety of connection requirements: solder-in, hand held, and
fixtured. Typical system performance with the TDS6154C exceeds 12.5 GHz
bandwidth. The P7313 offers the lowest loading, highest signal fidelity,
and lowest cost per connection in the industry. Versatile, inexpensive
Tip-Clip™ adapters provide the optimum solution for virtually any
connection need.
The P7380SMA Differential Probing System provides
a 50 Ω per side termination network with a termination voltage. The
termination voltage can be applied externally or through the TekConnect® interface from the TDS6000B/C probe menu, or not used at
all. A gain switch provides two different sensitivity settings of
the probe and an Aux Out provides an inverted version of the signal
for driving other equipment. The P7380SMA probing system used with
the TDS6000B/C oscilloscopes provides an ideal solution for validation
and compliance testing of high-speed serial data links.
