MDO3000 Series Datasheet

Today's integrated designs need an oscilloscope that is just as integrated -

such as the MDO3000 Mixed Domain Oscilloscope (MDO) Series. It is the

ultimate 6-in-1 integrated oscilloscope that includes an integrated spectrum

analyzer, arbitrary function generator, logic analyzer, protocol analyzer, and

digital voltmeter/counter. The MDO3000 is completely customizable and

fully upgradeable. Add the instruments and performance you need now - or

later.

Mixed Domain Osciloscopes -- MDO3000 Series Digital phosphor technology with FastAcq enables greater than 280,000 wfms/s waveform capture rate and real-time color-intensity grading. Triggering Discovering a device fault is only the first step. Next, you must capture the event of interest to identify root cause.
PAGE 4
Datasheet Waveform analysis Verifying that your prototype’s performance matches simulations and meets the project’s design goals requires analyzing its behavior. Tasks can range from simple checks of rise times and pulse widths to sophisticated power loss analysis and investigation of noise sources.

PAGE 6
Datasheet Limit/Mask testing (optional) TekVPI® probe interface A common task during the development process is characterizing the behavior of certain signals in a system. One method, called limit testing, is to compare a tested signal to a known good or "golden" version of the same signal with user-defined vertical and horizontal tolerances. Another common method, called mask testing, is to compare a tested signal to a mask, looking for where a signal under test violates the mask.

Use e*Scope to quickly document your work by saving screen images, waveforms, or setups for later use. Spectrum Analyzer The MDO3000 is the first oscilloscope in its class to include an integrated spectrum analyzer. Each oscilloscope includes a spectrum analyzer with a frequency range of 9 kHz up to the analog bandwidth of the instrument.
PAGE 8
Datasheet Ultra-wide capture bandwidth Today's wireless communications vary significantly with time, using sophisticated digital modulation schemes and, often, transmission techniques that involve bursting the output. These modulation schemes can have very wide bandwidth as well. Traditional swept or stepped spectrum analyzers are ill equipped to view these types of signals as they are only able to look at a small portion of the spectrum at any one time.
PAGE 9
Mixed Domain Osciloscopes -- MDO3000 Series RF probing Signal input methods on spectrum analyzers are typically limited to cabled connections or antennas. But with the optional TPA-N-VPI adapter, any active, 50 Ω TekVPI probe can be used with the spectrum analyzer on the MDO3000 Series. This enables additional flexibility when hunting for noise sources and enables easier spectral analysis by using true signal browsing on a spectrum analyzer input.

Datasheet Color-coded digital waveform display Color-coded digital traces display ones in green and zeros in blue. This coloring is also used in the digital channel monitor. The monitor shows if signals are high, low, or are transitioning so you can see channel activity at a glance without having to clutter your display with unneeded digital waveforms. Waveform type selection in the integrated AFG.

Mixed Domain Osciloscopes -- MDO3000 Series Serial Protocol Triggering and Analysis (optional) On a serial bus, a single signal often includes address, control, data, and clock information. This can make isolating events of interest difficult. Automatic trigger, decode, and search on bus events and conditions gives you a robust set of tools for debugging serial buses. The MagniVu high-resolution record provides 121.
