Tektronix TDS2024 Data Sheet

Digital Storage Oscilloscopes

TDS1000 Series • TDS2000 Series

TDS1000 and TDS2000 Series Oscilloscopes.
Brilliantly Engineered. Irresistibly Priced.

The TDS1000 Series and TDS2000
Series digital storage oscilloscopes deliver
an unbeatable combination of superior
performance, unmatched ease-of-use
and affordability in an ultra lightweight,
portable package.

Affordable Digital Precision

With up to 200 MHz bandwidth and
2 GS/s maximum sample rate, no other
color digital storage oscilloscope offers
as much bandwidth and sample rate
for the price. The TDS1000 and TDS2000
Series oscilloscopes provide accurate
real-time acquisition up to their full band­width, advanced triggers to isolate signals
of interest and 11 standard automatic
measurements on all models.
Their Fast Fourier Transform (FFT)
math function allows the user to analyze,
characterize, and troubleshoot circuits
by viewing frequency and signal strength
(standard on all models).

Digital Storage Oscilloscopes

TDS1000 Series • TDS2000 Series

Unparalleled measurement accuracy with
up to 200 MHz bandwidth and 2 GS/s
maximum sample rate.

Ultra-fast Setup and Use

The simple user interface with classic,
analog-style controls makes these instru­ments easy to use, reducing learning time
and increasing efficiency. Innovative features
such as the autoset menu, probe check
wizard, context-sensitive help menu and
color LCD display (TDS2000 Series) opti­mize instrument setup and operation.

Pulse-width and field- and line-selectable
video triggers make the oscilloscope ideal
for a wide range of applications.
