Tektronix DPO77002SX 70-GHz Real-Time Oscilloscope

The Tektronix DPO77002SX is a single-channel 70 GHz, 200 GS/s oscilloscope for applications such as RF analysis or pulsed laser studies. Using Tek’s ATI (Asynchronous Time Interleaving) architecture, the scope achieves 70 GHz single-channel bandwidth at 200 GS/s (5 ps/Sample). The scope can be configured for two channels at 33 GHz.

Additionally, this scope can be connected with either or both of CMC’s Tektronix DPO73304SX 33 GHz Real-Time Oscilloscopes using the UltraSync cable to enable higher channel counts of one 70 GHz and multiple 33 GHz and 20 GHz channels as needed.

The DPO7000SX series oscilloscopes are a modular, rack‑mountable design with a small viewing screen. They are designed to be embedded in test environments and interconnected with other DPO7000SX series oscilloscopes to enable multi‑port operation, while being operated by an external keyboard, mouse and monitor. Users must supply their own monitor.
