THS700 Series

Handheld Battery Operated
Oscilloscopes

The TekScope
Oscilloscope/DMM combines a full­featured real-time oscilloscope with a
True RMS digital multimeter in rugged,
battery-operated instruments. Scope and
meter modes can operate simultaneously
and independently on the same or sepa­rate signals. The high-resolution, backlit
display and pop-up menus make it easy
for users to take full advantage of the
instrument’s many features. These include
cursors, video trigger, voltage and resistance
measurements, and storage of waveforms,
data and instrument setups. In addition,
they offer the most comprehensive
triggering capabilities – external trigger

The Only Safe Measurement
Solution for Power Electronics

The THS720P TekScope IsolatedChannel
Oscilloscope/DMM is ideal for electrical/
power electronics applications.
The THS720P includes features specifically
for electrical/power electronics measure­ments which allow testing and verifying
correct operation of motors, checking
transformer efficiency, verifying power­supply performance and measuring the
effect of neutral current. These features
include harmonic analysis, power meas­urements and statistics and PWM motor
drive triggering. It also contains the
powerful features of a modern oscilloscope
that enable troubleshooting and verification
of complicated electronic control circuits
controlling the high-voltage power­electronics circuitry.
The THS720P shares measurement
features with the THS730A, THS720A
Oscilloscope/DMMs, which are ideal for
electronic applications.
