Tektronix TDS6154C Oscilloscope

The Tektronix TDS6154C Oscilloscope has a double processor framework that controls the oscilloscope. The oscilloscope has an XGA resolution flat screen, straightforward touch screen, and front board with direct access to usually utilized oscilloscope capacities. The user can also operate the oscilloscope with a mouse or console pointing gadget.

The capacity to trigger an oscilloscope on events of interest is vital in high-speed debug and validation. Regardless of whether the user is attempting to discover a framework mistake or needs to isolate a segment of an unpredictable signal for further examination, Tektronix's Pinpoint triggering is the solution. The Pinpoint trigger framework utilizes Silicon Germanium (SiGe) innovation to deliver a trigger sensitivity as high as 9 GHz, while permitting selection of every trigger type on A and B trigger circuits. It can catch glitches down to 100 ps wide with 1 psRMS trigger jitter typical. Other trigger frameworks offer various trigger types just on a single event (A Event), with delayed trigger (B Event) selection limited to edge type triggering. They also frequently do not give an approach to reset the trigger sequence if the B-event does not happen.

The Tektronix TDS6154C allows the user to effectively decode 8b/10b and other encoded serial data streams and set wanted encoded words for the serial sample trigger to capture. 8b/10b decoding on data rates over 10 GB/s is conceivable on the TDS6154C models. In addition, option PTD recovers the clock signal, distinguishes the advances, disentangles the characters and other protocol data. The TDS6154C can trigger on a maximum of four successive 10-bit words or specified error conditions at data rates up to 3.125 Gb/s.
