MDO3000 Mixed Domain Oscilloscope

A powerful scope is only the start.

Today’s engineering world is dominated by multi-core processors, serial buses, and wireless interfaces. At the heart of the MDO3000 is a tried-and-true Tektronix oscilloscope paired with a base spectrum analyzer and digital voltmeter. Then you can customize it to your testing needs. Add 16 logic channels, a 50 MHz arbitrary/function generator, protocol analysis, and an expanded 3 GHz spectrum analyzer to help tackle today’s—and tomorrow’s—complex designs.

Embedded Serial Bus Trigger, Decode and Analysis

A single serial bus signal often includes address, control, data, and clock information; making isolating events of interest difficult. The serial application modules for the MDO3000 series transform the oscilloscope into a robust tool for debugging serial buses with automatic trigger, decode, and search.

Highlights

• I2C, SPI, RS-232 / 422 / 485 / UART
• CAN/CAN FD, LIN, FlexRay
• I2S/LJ/RJ/TDM
• MIL-STD-1553 , USB

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)

When performing design EMI/EMC testing, there is always risk it will fail; leading to schedule and budget issues. The MDO3000 with built-in spectrum analyzer enables you to perform pre-compliance testing in your lab - greatly improving the probability of a successful first pass of full EMI compliance testing.

Automotive Buses – CAN/CAN FD Trigger, Decode & Analysis

The technical requirements of today’s automobiles require more sophisticated and sensitive electronic components and systems than ever. With six instruments in one, the Tektronix MDO3000 was developed to help meet the challenges for testing and verification of these advanced technologies. Now a single instrument can be used for:

• Debugging & verifying CAN FD, CAN, LIN and FlexRay
• High power testing for hybrid/electric vehicles
• Verifying in-car wireless systems
• New component eval (MEMS sensors, LED drivers, LEDs
