TDS200

The TDS200 Series of Digital Storage Oscilloscopes created by Tektronix have the following useful features: 5 automated measurements, setup and waveform storage, a dual time base, a video trigger capability, and autoset for quick setup. These oscilloscopes each have a high-resolution, high-contrast LCD display with temperature compensation and a backlight that can easily be replaced. More capabilities can be added with optional modules, probing, and software. For example, the Communication Extension Module permits GPIB and RS-232 programmability, along with the ability to print screenshots through a Centronics-type parallel port. Also, the Measurement Extension Module has similar features to the Communications Module, but also has Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) analysis and four more measurement types.

The Tektronix TDS200 Series is ideal for people who need an economically priced oscilloscope with high-performance for the production line, training lab, or the bench. The Digital Storage Oscilloscopes in the TDS200 Series weigh 3.25 pounds and has a durable build, which enables it to be transported without fear of damage. These oscilloscopes also have two types of triggers: video and edge. Edge trigger can be utilized with digital and analog test circuits, whereas video trigger can be used on lines or fields of typical video signals.
