Digital precision for accurate measurements

With up to 150 MHz bandwidth and 1 GS/s maximum sample rate, no other digital storage oscilloscope offers as much bandwidth and sample rate for the price. Tektronix proprietary sampling technology provides real-time sampling with the stated sampling rate on all channels, all the time to accurately capture your signals. Sampling performance is not reduced when using multiple channels.

The TBS1000 Digital Oscilloscope Series is especially well suited to meet the needs of today's demanding measurement requirements. Packed with features and built-in tools, the TBS1000 is easy to learn and simple to operate - ideal for first-time oscilloscope users or experienced veterans. Featuring the same user interface as the Tektronix TDS Oscilloscope Family, when operating a TBS1000 you’ll be using the world's most popular oscilloscope platform, with over 500,000 oscilloscopes in operation worldwide.

 

 

Quickly and easily capture waveforms

To simplify integration with your existing curriculum, the TBS1000 also includes an Education Resource CD filled with tools to help beginners master the use of an oscilloscope. The TBS1000 offers the tools and performance you need at a price you can afford.

Critical tools for troubleshooting your device

Advanced triggers - rising/falling edge, pulse width, and video - help you quickly isolate your signals of interest. Once you've captured a signal, advanced math capabilities and automated measurements can speed your analysis. Quickly perform an FFT or add, subtract, or multiply waveforms. Sixteen automated measurements quickly and reliably calculate important signal characteristics such as frequency or rise time, while the built-in Limit Test function enables you to easily identify problems in your signal.

 

 

Quickly perform an FFT with the advanced math functions

Designed to make your work easy

The TBS1000 series oscilloscopes are designed with the ease of use and familiar operation you have come to expect from Tektronix.

Intuitive operation

The intuitive user interface with dedicated per-channel vertical controls, auto-setup, and auto-ranging makes these instruments easy to use, reducing learning time and increasing efficiency.

Help when you need it, where you need it

 

 

The context-sensitive help system provides important information specific to the task you are working on

The built-in Help menu provides you with important information on your oscilloscope's features and functions. Help is provided in the same languages as the user interface.

Probe check wizard

Check out your probe compensation before making measurements with just one button that starts a fast, easy procedure.

Limit test

 

 

Limit test provides a quick Pass/Fail comparison of any triggered input signal to a user-defined template

The oscilloscope can automatically monitor source signals and output Pass or Fail results by judging whether the input waveform is within predefined boundaries. Specific actions can be triggered on violation including stopping waveform acquisition, stopping Limit Test functions, saving the failed waveform data or screen image to a USB memory device, or any combination of the above. This is an ideal solution for manufacturing or service applications where you need to make decisions quickly.

Flexible data transfer

 

 

Data logging enables automatic saving of triggered waveforms

The USB host port on the front panel enables you to save your instrument settings, screenshots, and waveform data in a flash. The built-in Data Logging feature means you can set up your oscilloscope to save user-specified triggered waveforms to a USB memory device for up to 24 hours. You can also select the "Infinite" option for continuous waveform monitoring. With this mode you can save your triggered waveforms to an external USB memory device without a duration limitation until the memory device is full. The oscilloscope will then guide you to insert another USB memory device to continue saving waveforms.

Easy PC connectivity

Easily capture, save, and analyze measurements results by connecting to your PC with the rear-panel USB device port and the included copy of OpenChoice PC Communications Software. Simply pull screen images and waveform data into the stand-alone desktop application or directly into Microsoft Word and Excel. Alternatively, if you prefer not to use your PC, you can simply print your image directly to any PictBridge-compatible printer.

Performance you can count on

In addition to industry-leading service and support, every TBS1000 series oscilloscope comes backed with a 5-year warranty as standard.

Educational resources

Every TBS1000 model includes an education resource CD filled with tools to help beginners master the use of an oscilloscope. The education resource CD includes two labs and instructor's guides, and two primers. TheIntroduction to Oscilloscopeslab and instructor's guide explains the basics of oscilloscope operation complete with hands-on exercises for classroom environments. TheIntroduction to Oscilloscope Probeslab and instructor's guide explains the fundamentals of probing and how probes can affect measurement quality. The two primers included are the most popular and widely-used from Tektronix - theXYZs of OscilloscopesandABCs of Probes.
