Data Sheet
Wave Inspector controls provide unprecedented efficiency in viewing, navigating, and
analyzing waveform data. Zip through your 5 Mpoint record by turning the outer pan
control (1). Get from the beginning to end in seconds. See something of interest and want
to see more details? Just turn the inner zoom control (2).
Wave Inspector®Navigation and Search
A 5 Mpoint record length represents thousands of screens of information.
The MSO/DPO3000 Series enables you to find your event in seconds with
Wave Inspector, the industry’s best tool for navigation and search.
Wave Inspector offers the following innovative controls:
Zoom/Pan
A dedicated, two-tier front-panel control provides intuitive c ontrol of both
zooming and panning. The inner control adjusts the zoom factor (or zoo m
scale); turning it clockwise activates zoom and goes to progressively higher
zoom factors, while turning it counterclockwise results in lowe r zoom factors
and eventually turning zoo m off. No longer do you need to navigate through
multiple menus to adjust your zoom view. The outer control pans the zoom
box across the waveform to quickly get to the portion of waveform you are
interested in. The outer control also utilizes force-feedback to determine
how fast to pan on the waveform. The farther you turn the oute r control, the
faster the zoom box moves. Pan direction is changed by simply turning the
control the other way.
Play/Pause
A dedicated Play/Pause front-panel button scrolls the waveform across the
display automatically while you look for anomalies or an event of int erest.
ack speed and direction are controlled using the intuitive pan control.
Playb
Once again, turning the control further makes the waveform scroll faster and
changing direction is as simple as turning the control the other way.
Search step
Search step 2: Wave Inspector automatically searches through the record and marks each
event with a hollow white triangle. You can then use the Previous and Next buttons to
jump from one event to the next.
1: You define what you would like to find.
User Marks
Press the Set Mark front-panel button to place one or more marks on
the waveform. Navigating between marks is as simple as pressing the
Previous ()andNext () buttons on the front panel.
Search Marks
The Search button allows you to automatically search through your lon g
acquisition looking for user-defined events. All occurrences of the event
are highlighted with search marks and are easily navigated to, using the
front-panel Previous () and Next () buttons. Search types include
pulse width/glitch, runt, logic, setup and hold, rise/fall time parallel

Digital phosphor technology enables greater than 50,000 wfm/s waveform capture rate
and real-time intensity grading on the MSO/DPO3000 Series.
Digital Phosphor Technology
The MSO/DPO3000 Series’ digital phosphor technology provides you with
fast insight into the real operation of your device. Its fast waveform capture
rate – greater than 50,000 wfm/s – gives you a high probabil
ity of quickly
seeing the infrequent problems commo n in digital systems: runt pulses,
glitches, timing issues, and more.
Waveforms are superimposed with one another and waveform points that
occur more frequently are intensified . This quickly highlights the events
that over time occur mo re often or, in the case of infrequent anomalies,
occur less often.
With the MSO/DPO3000 Series, you can choose infinite persistence
or variable persistence, determining how long the previous waveform
acquisitions stay on screen. This allows you to determine how often an
anomaly is occurring.
Mixed Signal Design and Analysis
(MSO Series)
The MSO3000 Series Mixed Signal Oscilloscopes provide 16 digital
channels. These channels are tightly integrated into the oscilloscope’s user
interface, simplifying operation and making it possible to solve mixed-signal
issues easily.

Data Sheet
White edges indicate additional information is available by zooming in. As shown here,
zooming in on the white edge reveals a hidden glitch.
The P6316 MSO probe offers two eight-channel pods to simplify connecting to your
device.
Once a group is formed, you can position all the channels contained in that
group collectively. This greatly reduces the normal setup time associated
with positioning channels individually.
The MagniVu high-resolution record provides 121.2 ps timing resolution, enabling you to
make critical timing measurements on your digital waveforms.
The multiple transition detection hardware of the MSO3000 Series will
show you a white edge on the display when the system detects multiple
transitions. White edges indicate that more information is available by
zooming in or acquiring at faster sampling rates. In most cases zooming in
will reveal the pulse that was not viewable with the previous settings. If the
white edge is still present after zoomi
ng in as far as possible, this indicates
that increasing the sample rate on the next acquisition will reveal higher
frequency information than the previous settings could acquire.
The MSO3000 Series simplifies channel setup by allowing you to group
digital waveforms and enter waveform labels by using a USB keyboard.

MagniVu™ High-speed Acquisition
The main digital acquisition mode on the MSO3000 Series will capture up
to 5 M points at 500 MS/s (2 ns resolution). In addition to the main record,
the MSO30
00 provides an ultra high-resolution record called MagniVu which
acquires 10,000 points at up to 8.2 5 GS/s (121.2 ps resolution). Both main
and MagniVu waveforms are acquired on every trigger and can be switched
between in the display at any time, running or stopped. MagniVu provides
significantly finer timing resolution than comparable MSOs on the market,
instilling confidence when making critical timing measurements on digital
ms.
