and distribution of amplitude over time. The TDS5000 Series digital
phosphor oscilloscopes deliver fast waveform capture rates, enabled by Tektronix
proprietary DPXTM acquisition technology, saving minutes, hours
or even days by quickly revealing the nature of faults so sophisticated
trigger modes can be applied to isolate them.

Intuitive User Interface
The TDS5000 Series graphical user interface readily adapts to any operating
style and environment, making the oscilloscope easy to learn and easy
to use. Classic analog-style controls provide instant, front-panel access
to the most frequently used functions while the large 10.4 in. (264 mm)
display and extensive use of intuitive icons create a highly visual environment
with explicit illustration of instrument features. Users can select traditional
instrument-style buttons for navigation or switch to a Microsoft Windows
menu bar. Waveform positions, cursor locations and trigger level can be
directly changed using a mouse or optional touch screen. A graphical drag-box
can be used to select a waveform area for zooming, histogram analysis
or measurement gating. The USB interface allows a mouse, keyboard and
other peripherals to be added without powering off the instrument. A context-sensitive
help program supplements graphic control windows and encourages users
to apply advanced capabilities to solve their problems. And an innovative
software package provides voice-controlled, multi-lingual operation of
the instrument.

Intuitive User Interface - Whatever your personal
preferences, needs or application environment, the TDS5000 Series
offers multiple ways to operate the instrument - classic, analog-style
knobs, familiar pull-down menus, mouse, optional touch screen and voice
commands.

Open Microsoft Windows Architecture
The TDS5000 Series combines a high performance oscilloscope and a PC
in a self-contained unit. With DPXTM acquisition technology,
an open Windows desktop and application programming interfaces (API) for
Windows and UNIX, this series provides exceptionally fast data acquisition,
analysis and network accessibility. By using the embedded PCI bus, waveform
data can be moved directly from acquisition to analysis applications on
the Windows desktop at much faster speeds than conventional GPIB transfers.The
analysis and connectivity software of the Tektronix TDS5000 Series oscilloscopes
provide a comprehensive software infrastructure for faster, more versatile
operations. Tektronix' implementation of industry-standard protocols,
such as TekVISA and ActiveX Controls, are included for using and enhancing
Windows applications such as Excel for data analysis and documentation.
Or, create custom software to automate multi-step processes in waveform
collection and analysis with Visual BASIC, C, C++, MATLAB and other common
Application Development Environments (ADE).Integration of the oscilloscope
with external PCs and non-Windows hosts is also supported by the TDS5000
Series software solutions. Plug-and-play drivers are included to enable
easy communication with the oscilloscope using GPIB, Serial, and LAN connections
from LabVIEW and Lab Windows programs running on external PCs. UNIX applications,
and other LAN resources, can connect directly using the VXI 11.2 server
included on the TDS5000 Series.

Additional Benefits
The TDS5000 Series includes virtually all modern standard interfaces
for control and peripheral expansion. An optional built-in printer provides
a snapshot and long banner print-outs of waveform and measurement results.
An optional CD-RW drive provides convenient and portable mass storage,
making data transfer much easier for the user who does not connect the
oscilloscope to the network via the standard LAN connection. Interoperability
of the TDS5000 Series with Tektronix logic analyzers enables a time-correlated
view of analog and digital signals to quickly track down elusive signal
integrity problems in designs.
Applications
The TDS5000 Series' high performance features make it ideal for a multitude
of applications, such as digital design and debug, power measurements
and video design.

Digital Design and Debug - Tektronix Integrated
View (iView) fully integrates the performance and measurement accuracy
of a Tektronix oscilloscope with the multi-channel and powerful triggering
capabilities of a Tektronix logic analyzer in one display, allowing designers
to quickly verify and debug their designs.
|
|
Digital Design and Debug
The interoperability of the TDS5000 Series oscilloscope with the Tektronix
TLA600 logic analyzer made possible by Tektronix Integrated View (iViewTM)
enables digital designers to solve signal integrity challenges and effectively
debug and verify their systems more quickly and easily. iView fully integrates
the industry-leading performance and measurement accuracy of a Tektronix
oscilloscope with the multi-channel and powerful triggering capabilities
of a Tektronix logic analyzer. This intergration allows designers to view
time-correlated digital and analog data in the same display window and
isolate the analog characteristics of the digital signals that are causing
failures in their systems.
The iView Wizard simplifies this integration of the oscilloscope and
logic analyzer by guiding the user through set up and connection. No user
calibration is required. And, once set up, iView is completely automated.
The result - an integrated tool set for digital design and troubleshooting.

Embedded Design - A source synchronous, double-pumped
bus. Channel 1 (yellow) is the clock signal, Channel 2 (blue) is the strobe
signal and Channel 3 (pink) is a data line. The upper half of the graticule
shows a long acquisition of a write-cycle, enabling designers to gauge
the throughput efficiency of their systems by comparing live writing time
with dead time. The bottom half of the graticule shows a zoomed-in view
of a small slice of time in the upper graticule, enabling designers to
make critical timing measurements to ensure that the data on the bus meets
the setup-and-hold timing requirements of the receiver.

Power Measurements
Channel 1 (yellow, labeled Voltage) shows the turn-off voltage on
the FET of a switching power supply, with current on Channel 2 (blue,
labeled Current). The Math 1 waveform, M1 (red, labeled Power), is the
instantaneous power resulting from the multiplication of the voltage and
current waveforms (Ch. 1 * Ch. 2). The Math 2 waveform,
M2 (red, labeled Energy), is the result of a calculation of the integral
of M1, a math-on-math operation of the TDS5000 Series. An energy
measurement, located to the right of the display, is a gated measurement
made on M1 and includes statistics. The TDS5000 Series' powerful
and flexible measurement, math, and math-on-math capabilities make it
an ideal solution for engineers designing today's high-efficiency power
devices
