Mixed Signal Oscilloscopes — MSO4000B, DPO4000B Series
Search
Finding your event of interest in a long waveform record can be time
consuming without the right search tools. With today’s record lengths
pushing beyond a million data points, locating your event can mean
scrolling through thousands of screens of signal activity.
®
The innovative Wave Inspector controls give you the industry’s most
comprehensive search and waveform navigation capability. These controls
speed panning and zooming through your record. With a unique force-
feedback system, you can move from one end of your record to the other in
just seconds. User marks allow you to mark any location that you may want
to reference later for further investigation. Or, automatically search your
record for criteria you define. Wave Inspector will instantly search your
entire record, including analog, digital, and serial bus data. Along the way it
will automatically mark every occurrence of your defined event so you can
quickly move between events.
Analyze – Waveform histogram of a falling edge showing the distribution of edge position
(jitter) over time. Included are numeric measurements made on the waveform histogram
data. A comprehensive set of integrated analysis tools speeds verification of your
design's performance.
Mixed domain analysis
Working with RF signals? Be sure to check out the MDO4000 Series - the
world's first Mixed Domain Oscilloscope. Built on the MSO4000B
oscilloscope platform, the MDO4000 Series offers a built-in spectrum
analyzer (up to 6 GHz). This combination offers you the ability to capture
time-correlated analog, digital, and RF signals in a single instrument. For

Wave Inspector navigation and search
Search ‒ I2C decode showing results from a Wave Inspector search for Address value
50. Wave Inspector controls provide unprecedented efficiency in viewing and navigating
waveform data.
With long record lengths, a single acquisition can include thousands of
screens of waveform data. Wave Inspector , the industry’s best tool for
®
navigation and search, enables you to find events of interest in seconds.
Analyze
Verifying that your prototype’s performance matches simulations and meets
the project’s design goals requires analyzing its behavior. Tasks can range
from simple checks of rise times and pulse widths to sophisticated power
loss analysis and investigation of noise sources.
The oscilloscope offers a comprehensive set of integrated analysis tools
including waveform- and screen-based cursors, automated measurements,
advanced waveform math including arbitrary equation editing, FFT
analysis, and trend plots for visually determining how a measurement is
changing over time. Specialized application support for serial bus analysis,
power supply design, and video design and development is also available.

For extended analysis, National Instrument’s LabVIEW SignalExpress
Tektronix Edition provides over 200 built-in functions including time and
frequency domain analysis, limit testing, data logging, and customizable
reports.
