This video provides an introductory overview of the Agilent DSO3000 versus the TDS1000/2000 digital storage oscilloscopes.
56k/Modem | 100k/ISDN | 300k/DSL or faster |
TDS1000/2000 | Agilent - DSO3000 |
|
When an oscilloscope has a specified bandwidth of 200 MHz, you would expect that bandwidth under all possible conditions. See what the bandwidth response of the Agilent DSO3202A is, with only a single channel on.
56k/Modem | 100k/ISDN | 300k/DSL or faster |
TDS1000/2000 | Agilent - DSO3000 |
|
Following on from the "Bandwidth (single channel)" video, see how the Agilent DSO3202A becomes a 100 MHz oscilloscope as soon as 2 channels are turned on.
56k/Modem | 100k/ISDN | 300k/DSL or faster |
TDS1000/2000 | Agilent - DSO3000 |
|
See how the ET mode in the Agilent DSO3202A can have problems displaying sine waves and how the TDS1000/2000 does not need ET mode to achieve full bandwidth on all channels, all the time.
