Characteristic Description
Number of Input Channels Two (TPS2012B) or four (TPS2014B, TPS2024B) identical channels, digitized simultaneously
Input Coupling DC, AC, or GND
AC coupling connects a capacitor in series with the input circuitry. The DC input impedance
becomes very high, since capacitance is in series with all paths to ground.
Ground coupling mode provides a reference waveform derived from the values identified during
SPC. This reference waveform shows visually where signal reference (ground) is expected
to be.

The ability to set large values of Holdoff is limited by the difficulty in adjusting the Holdoff
at Sec/Div settings less than 100 ms/div. This is because Holdoff cannot be set in Scan
Mode, which begins at 100 ms/div when Trigger Mode is AUTO. By adjusting Trigger Mode
to NORMAL, the Scan Mode operation is turned off, and Holdoff can be adjusted at larger

The m inimum signal levels required for stable edge triggering of an acquisition when the trigger
Source is DC coupled. A stable trigger is one that results in a uniform, regular visual display,
triggered on the selected slope. The trigger point must not switch between opposite slopes on
the waveform, and the display must not “roll” across the screen on successive acquisitions.
Trigger Frequency Readout typically stabilizes at 25% more signal than generates a stable
visual display. At 5 mV/div, 50% additional signal is typically required.

Trigger when < (Less than), > (Greater than), = (Equal), or ≠ (Not Equal)
Positive pulse or Negative pulse
Equal: The oscilloscope triggers when the trailing edge of the pulse crosses the trigger level.
Not Equal: If the pulse is narrower than the specified width, the trigger point is the trailing
edge. Otherwise, the oscilloscope triggers when a pulse continues longer than the time
specified as the Pulse Width.
Less than: The trigger point is the trailing edge.
Greater than (also called time-out trigger): The oscilloscope triggers when a pulse continues
longer than the time specified as the Pulse Width.

Characteristic Description
Frequency Range
AC coupled, 10 Hz minimum to rated bandwidth.
Signal Source Pulse Width/ Edge Trigger: all available trigger sources.
Frequency Counter measures trigger source at all times, including when the oscilloscope
acquisition is halted due to changes in the run status, or acquisition of a single shot event
has completed.
Pulse Width Trigger: The oscilloscope counts pulses of signifi cant magnitude inside the
250 ms measurement window that qualify as triggerable events, such as narrow pulses in a
PWM pulse train if set to < mode and the width is set to a relatively small time.
Edge Trigger: The oscilloscope counts all edges of sufficient magnitude and correct polarity.
Video Trigger: The Frequency Counter does not operate.

Charge battery packs between 0 °C and 45 °C (32 °F to 113 °F). Charging battery packs outside this range can damage cells or cause them to leak.
Battery packs are rated to operate between -10 °C and +50 °C (-14 °F and +122 °F) with less than 80% relative humidity. Operating outside this range can
cause damage. Battery discharge capacity drops significantly at temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F) and above 45 °C (113 °F).
