Applications
Analog High-definition Video Monitoring for Broadcast or Medical Applications
The Tektronix 1735 HD is a multi-standard, wide bandwidth, television waveform monitor developed in support of high definition television production formats.
Selectable Operating Formats
In addition to high definition production formats, the 1735 HD provides monitoring capabilities in 525 line/60 field and 625 line/50 field signal standards. The 1735 HD accepts tri-level or traditional bilevel synchronizing signals.
Multiple Wideband Inputs
Six wide-bandwidth input channels are provided for monitoring composite or component signals. New input amplifiers provide flat frequency response and excellent return loss characteristics through 30 MHz.
Input signal processing provides a choice of DC restoration or an unclamped display. Inputs may be referenced to ground. One signal may be displayed in a dual filter mode, with one line or field low pass filtered and one unfiltered. When two or three different input signals are displayed, the second and third may be offset from the first to allow accurate comparison.

Accurate Timing Measurements
To facilitate timing measurements in the critical high definition environment, up to three signals may be presented side by side or overlaid. A channel subtraction mode allows timing comparison using the Bowtie signal. Calibrated timing is facilitated by a versatile horizontal magnifier.
Full Line Select
Full frame line select, with on-screen readout of line number, is provided in each television line/field format. The line to be displayed may be selected at the front panel and a predefined line may be easily recalled. The selected line is intensified in the field rate display and on the picture monitor output. A companion 1720 Series Vectorscope may be connected to display a vector presentation of a selected line or the full field signal in composite (NTSC or PAL) applications.
Microprocessor Control
The 1735 HD High Definition Waveform Monitor is a microprocessor controlled instrument with a nonvolatile memory. On-screen menus allow selection of operating standard and screen display functions. Four user-defined front panel setups are available through a remote input connector. Also available for remote operation are selection of sweep rates, input channels and activation of four line/field display. The companion 1720 Series Vectorscope's front panel setup follows the 1735 HD selection for quick recall of desired test and monitoring configurations.

Return Loss - >35 dB, 50 kHz to 30 MHz, power on or off.
Page 5
Input Impedance - >15 kilohm.
Vertical Deflection
Deflection Factor - Within 1% of 1 V. Variable Gain Range - +5, -20 dB. Position Range - 1 V signal can be positioned so that peak
white and sync tip can be placed at blanking level regardless of gain range. Channels 2 and 3 may be offset from channel
1. Channel group B may be offset from channel group A.
Frequency Response
Flat - 50 kHz to 30 MHz within 2%. Filter - >20 dB attenuation at 20 MHz. Response within 1%
of flat response at 15 kHz.
Transient Response
Overshoot - 1% or less. Tilt - 1% or less.
DC Restoration
Clamp Point - Back porch. Mains Hum Attenuation - Slow clamp passes >90% of
50 Hz mains hum (0.9 dB atten.). Fast clamp removes >95% of 60 Hz mains hum (26 dB atten.).
Blanking Level Shift with 10% to 90% APL Change - 1% or less.
Picture Monitor Output
Corresponds to waveform display.

Horizontal Deflection System
Sweep - Sweep will occur with or without input signal. Line and Field Sweep Modes, with the Following
Characteristics -
One: Displays one complete line or field. Two: Displays two lines or fields. Three: Displays sync trailing edge and video of three selected inputs. Four: Displays sync trailing edge and video of four selected inputs (mode accessed through remote connector). Line magnification equals approximately x25 in one and three line modes x10 in two line mode. Field magnification equals approximately x20. Time/div appears on-screen if readout is turned on (in line mode, not field mode).
Timing Accuracy - 1 µs/div within 2%, 0.2 µs/div within 3%.
Linearity - Within 1%. Differential Linearity - Within 2%. Sweep Magnification Registration - Magnification occurs
about the center of the screen in two line. Position Range - Any portion of the synchronized video
sweep can be positioned on screen in all sweep modes except 1-Line and 1-Field.
Synchronization
Internal or External - 1 V composite video or 300 mV (black to sync tip) sync +6 dB of nominal.
