Tektronix 5 Series B Mixed Signal Oscilloscopes

Tektronix 5 Series B Mixed Signal Oscilloscopes (MSOs) provide better visibility into complex systems by offering up to eight FlexChannel inputs. The inputs measure one analog or eight digital signals per channel. These oscilloscopes feature a pinch-swipe zoom touchscreen user interface, a 15.6-inch high-definition (1,920 x 1,080) display, and 12-bit Analog to Digital Converter (ADC). The 5 series B MSOs also feature a waveform capture rate greater than 500,000wfms/s, eight maximum analog channels, and 64 maximum digital channels (with optional logic probes). Typical applications include DC-to-DC power converters, embedded systems, automotive electronics, and three-phase power electronics.
