TDS3000B DPO provides breakthrough test speeds for telecommunications line card testing. The telecom QUICKMENU puts all the commonly used telecom testing functions on a single menu.


Custom video trigger allows the TDS3000B to trigger on standards such as RS343 (26.2 kHz scan rate).


Trace and identify ITU-R BT.601 video signals with the TDS3SDI 601 serial digital video module.

Acquisition Modes

DPO - Captures and displays complex waveforms, random events and subtle patterns in actual signal behavior. DPOs are able to provide 3 dimensions of signal information in real time: Amplitude, time, and the distribution of amplitude over time.

Peak Detect - High frequency and random glitch capture. Captures glitches as narrow as 1 ns.

WaveAlert® - Monitors the incoming signals on all channels and alerts the user to any waveform that deviates from the normal waveform being acquired.

Sample - Sample data only.

Envelope - Max/Min values acquired over one or more acquisitions.

Average - Waveform data from 2 to 512 (selectable) acquisitions is averaged.

Single Sequence - Use the Single Sequence button to capture a single triggered acquisition sequence at a time.

Trigger System

Main Trigger Modes - Auto (supports Roll Mode for 40 ms/div and slower), Normal.

B Trigger - Trigger after time or events.

Trigger After Time Range - 13.2 ns to 50 s.

Trigger After Events Range - 1 to 9,999,999 events.

External Trigger Input - >1 MΩ in parallel with 17 pF; Max input voltage is 150 V_RMS.

Trigger Types

Edge - Conventional level-driven trigger. Positive or negative slope on any channel. Coupling selections: DC, noise reject, HF reject, LF reject.

Video - Trigger on all lines, odd, even or all fields. With TDS3VID or TDS3SDI, trigger on individual lines and on analog HDTV formats (1080i, 1080p, 720p, 480p).

Logic -

PATTERN: Specifies AND, OR, NAND, NOR when true or false for a specific time.

STATE: Any logic state. Triggerable on rising or falling edge of a clock. Logic triggers can be used on combinations of 2 inputs (not 4).

Pulse -

WIDTH (or GLITCH): Trigger on pulse width less than, greater than, equal to, or not equal to a selectable time limit ranging from 39.6 ns to 50 s.

RUNT: Trigger on a pulse that crosses one threshold but fails to cross a second threshold before crossing the first again.

SLEW RATE: Trigger on pulse edge rates that are either faster or slower than a set rate. Edges can be rising, falling, or either.

Comm (requires TDS3TMT) - Provides isolated pulse triggering required to perform DS1/DS3 telecommunications mask testing per ANSI T1.102 standard.

Alternate - Sequentially uses each active channel as a trigger source.

Measurement System

Automatic Waveform Measurements - Period, Frequency, +Width, –Width, Rise Time, Fall Time, +Duty Cycle, –Duty Cycle, +Overshoot, -Overshoot, High, Low, Max, Min, P-P, Amplitude, Mean, Cycle Mean, RMS, Cycle RMS, Burst Width, Delay, Phase, Area*², Cycle Area*².

Display any four measurements from any combination of waveforms. Or display all measurements with measurement snapshot feature. Measurement statistics*².

Thresholds - Settable in percentage or voltage.

Gating - Measurements can be gated using the screen or vertical cursors.

Waveform Processing

Deskew - Channel-to-channel deskew ±10 ns may be manually entered for better timing measurements and more accurate math waveforms.

Arithmetic Operators - Add, subtract, multiply, divide, arbitrary math expressions*².

Autoset - Single-button, automatic setup on selected input signal for vertical, horizontal and trigger systems.

Display Characteristics

Waveform Style - Dots, vectors and variable persistence.

Graticules - Full, grid, cross-hair, and frame. NTSC, PAL, SECAM, and vectorscope (100% and 75% color bars) with optional TDS3VID and TDS3SDI video application modules.

Format - YT, XY and Gated XYZ (XY with Z-axis blanking available on TDS30X4B only).

*² Requires TDS3AAM module.

I/O Interface

Hard Copy Port (standard) - Centronics-type parallel.

Ethernet Port (standard) - 10Base-T LAN, RJ-45 female.

TDS3GV Communications Module -

GPIB (IEEE -488.2) programmability: Full talk/listen modes; control of all modes, settings, and measurements.

VGA: Monitor output for direct display on large VGA-equipped monitors. DB-15 female connector, 31.6 kHz sync rate, EIA RS-343A compliant.

RS-232-C interface programmability: Full talk/listen modes; control of all modes, settings and measurements. Baud Rate up to 38,400. DB-9 male connector.

Programmer manual: 071-0381-02.

Environmental and Safety

Temperature - +5 °C to +50 °C (operating), -20 °C to +60 °C (nonoperating).

Humidity - 20% to 80% RH below 32 °C, derate to 30% RH at 45 °C (operating), 5% to 90% RH below 41 °C, derate to 30% RH at 60 °C (nonoperating).

Altitude - to 3,000 m (operating), 15,000 m (nonoperating).

Electromagnetic Compatibility - Meets or exceeds EN55011 Class A radiated and conducted emissions; EN50082-1; FCC 47 CFR, Part 15, Subpart B, Class A; Australian EMC framework; Russian GOST EMC regulations.
