MDO4000
A revolutionary new instrument from Tektronix

The MDO4000  Mixed Domain Oscilloscope is the first oscilloscope to correlate the analogue, digital and RF domains.  All other oscilloscopes use the FFT to convert data from the analogue input channels, but the MDO4000 is unique in having a separate RF input with higher dynamic range.  It can also be used as a stand-alone spectrum analyser for many applications.

Below are only some of the features which should make this a must have have instrument for embedded wireless design, debug or test.

See the data sheet for full features set and specifications.

MDO4000 Features

  • Small Form Factor 
  • Time correlated acquisition of analog, digital, and RF signals
  • ≥1 GHz Capture Bandwidth
  • Investigation of spectrum over time
  • Automatic & Manual Peak Markers
  • Peak Readouts
  • RF Power Level Trigger as a source for Edge triggering
  • Cross Domain Triggers
  • Amplitude, Frequency and Phase vs. Time Waveforms
  • Spectrogram - Provides visualization of time varying spectral phenomena
  • N-to-VPI Probe Adapter - Enables use of 50 ohm TekVPI active probes for direct probing on the RF input
 

    The Spectrogram display enable you to observe slowly changing signals.

    The upper trace is like a strip chart chart with the most recent data at the bottom. 

    You can scroll through the data and view frequency of each peak at that point in time. 

 

This window demonstrates how the three domains come together. 

  • Yellow trace shows VCO enable turning on
  • Cyan trace shows VCO voltage variations in response to enable command.
  • Purple trace (when expanded) shows the decoded SPI command to set to 2.4GHZ
  • Orange trace shows RF signal after VCO locks. (The RF display indow view is determined by the small orange square above the 25MS/s box)
