Usability and Display

Touch Interaction Done Right

These next-generation oscilloscopes feature the industry’s rst
oscilloscope user interface truly designed for touch. The same
intuitive gestures you use with your phone or tablet, work on the
big HD displays and the gestures are common among the 3, 4, 5
and 6 Series.

• Control inputs, triggers and acquisitions by tapping badges
in the settings bar at the bottom of the display

Drag waveforms to adjust position or to pan

Pinch to change horizontal or vertical scale

Stunning HD Displays

The 15.6" displays on 5 and 6 Series MSOs have 1920 × 1080 HD resolution. You can see many signals at once, along with critical
readouts and plots for an extensive view of your system.

Even with their bench-friendly footprints, the 3 and 4 Series offer the largest displays in their classes, with full 1920 × 1080 HD resolution.

1920 × 1080 pixels

1280 × 800 pixels

800 × 480 pixels

Display resolution on some competitors’ products is as low as 800 × 480 pixels. That’s less than 20% of the 1920 × 1080 pixel display resolution of the
3, 4, 5, and 6 Series products. Even larger 1280 × 800 pixels do not provide the same level of detail.

Performance and Measurements

More Inputs and Mixed Signal Analysis

The 4, 5 and 6 Series MSOs let you see more signals by going beyond
the traditional 4-channel limit, offering up to 8 analog input channels.

visibility even further. Whenever you need to see more signals, just
plug a TLP058 logic probe into any input. The single analog channel
converts to 8 digital channels. FlexChannel inputs are backward­compatible with TekVPI probes.

The 3 Series MDO offers 16 digital channels through a dedicated logic
probe, included with the MSO option.

Industry-leading Vertical Resolution

See more signal detail. The 4, 5, and 6 Series MSOs feature 12-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) that provide 16 times
more vertical resolution than common 8-bit ADCs.

A new High Res mode further boosts vertical resolution and uses smart ltering to limit noise. High Res mode always provides
at least 12 bits and extends all the way to 16 bits of vertical resolution.

Stacked Display Mode

Most scopes display all waveforms in the same graticule and rely on vertical
scale controls to t signals on the display. Each waveform uses a fraction of
the available ADC range, leading to less accurate measurements.

New stacked display mode lets you view each waveform in its own “slice”
of the display. Each slice represents the full ADC range for the waveform for
more accurate measurements.

The more traditional overlay display mode is also available, for easy direct
comparison of waveforms.
