Applying PC-based test & measurement instruments
For some features, PC-based scopes sport higher performance than similar benchtop instruments. Trevor Smith, Pico Technology The debugging and validation of electronic systems calls for versatile instruments with wide-ranging functions and easy programmability. An engineer working on high-speed … [Read More...] about Applying PC-based test & measurement instruments

Test and measurement in education
Lab classes become much more meaningful when students can operate their own test instruments rather than watch an instructor turn knobs and push buttons. Paul Cracknell, Liquid Instruments Consider the typical EE lab in the average university. Labs must be outfitted with costly equipment to give … [Read More...] about Test and measurement in education

Debugging digital and analog signals with cross-domain analysis
Multi-domain signal analysis is blurring the line between real-time oscilloscopes and real-time spectrum and signal analyzers. Fernando Gomez, Tektronix Inc. Multi-domain signal analysis is enabled by advanced oscilloscope features such as 12-bit ADC, digital down conversion (DDC), and flexible … [Read More...] about Debugging digital and analog signals with cross-domain analysis

This ground-breaking product provides exact time correlation between analog and … [Read More...] about Embedded real-time scopes sport I3C protocol-based hardware triggers

Review: Working with the Tektronix MDO3104
The model number on the Tektronix MDO3104 oscilloscope denotes that it is a 3000-Series Mixed-Domain Oscilloscope. The mixed domain moniker means it is capable of displaying a waveform simultaneously in the time domain and in the frequency domain. The time domain is more familiar, the way we … [Read More...] about Review: Working with the Tektronix MDO3104

What is the importance of resolution in an oscilloscope?
When looking at the oscilloscope feature of a multi-instrument device or when comparing two benchtop oscilloscopes, the first specifications that we look at are the bandwidth and sample rate. While these are incredibly important specs, often most design work is done well within the limits of most products and the more critical specification to consider is resolution. Did you know that while most […]
