4 Series B MSOMixed Signal Oscilloscope Datasheet The 4 Series B MSO sets a new standard for performance, analysis capabilities and overall user experience in bench oscilloscopes -ideal for debugging and validating embedded systems and power converters. The second generation of this instrument incorporates a new processing platform, more than doubling its responsiveness, and significantly accelerating measurements and data transfers with full support for remote operation and control. Models are available with 4 or 6 FlexChannel® inputs for high visibility into designs. High-resolution 12-bit sampling delivers precise measurements on a new higher-contrast 13.3-inch HD display. And synchronized, multi-channel spectrum analysis facilitates noise hunting and RF measurements. This exceptional measurement performance is paired with an intuitive award-winning user interface making it easy to achieve fast, accurate results.

FlexChannel® technology enables maximum flexibility and broader system visibility The 4 Series B MSO redefines what a Mixed Signal Oscilloscope (MSO) should be. FlexChannel technology enables each channel input to be used as a single analog channel, eight digital logic inputs (with the TLP058 logic probe), or simultaneous analog and spectrum views with independent acquisition controls for each domain. Imagine the flexibility and configurability this provides. channels. The 4 Series B MSO offers a new level of integration of digital channels. Digital channels share the same high sample rate...

Beyond just analog and digital, FlexChannel inputs include Spectrum View. This Tektronix-patented technology enables you to simultaneously view both analog and spectral views of all your analog signals, with independent controls in each domain.

Unprecedented signal viewing capability The stunning 13.3inch (338 mm) display is the largest display in its class. It is also the highest resolution display, with full HD resolution (1,920 x 1,080), enabling you to see many signals at once with ample room for critical readouts and analysis. The viewing area is optimized to ensure that the maximum vertical space is available for waveforms. The Results Bar on the right can be hidden, enabling the waveform view to use the full width of the display. Stacked display mode enables easy visibility of all waveforms while maintaining maximum ADC...

Touch interaction finally done right Oscilloscopes have included touch screens for years, but the touch interface has been an afterthought. The 4 Series B MSO display includes a capacitive touchscreen and provides the industry's first oscilloscope user interface truly designed for touch. The touch interactions that you use with phones and tablets, and expect in a touch enabled device, are supported. • • • • Drag waveforms left/right or up/down to adjust horizontal and vertical position or to pan a zoomed view Pinch and expand to change scale or zoom in/out in either horizontal or vertical...

Variable font size Historically, oscilloscope user interfaces have been designed with fixed font sizes to optimize viewing of waveforms and readouts. This implementation is fine if all users have the same viewing preferences, but they don't. Users spend a significant amount of time staring at screens, and Tektronix recognizes this. The 4 Series B MSO offers a user preference for variable font sizes; scaling down to 12 points or up to 20 points. As you adjust the font size, the user interface dynamically scales so you can easily choose the best size for your application. Comparison showing...
