Big Physics – Machine Diagnostics
Physics is constantly leading the world to exciting new scientific discoveries in both matter and energy. These experiments require digitizers and oscilloscopes with new levels of precision, performance and size when monitoring target test points. The 6 Series Low Profile Digitizer exceed these by bringing an award winning oscilloscope user interface, industry leading performance, small form factor and Tektronix’s class of reliability. Test equipment just got better.

Built-in Spectrum View inputs with DDC & IQ data offload
Whether you’re a spectrum analyzer expert or an occasional user, you’ll be able to put the built-in Spectrum View right to work. The Tektronix TEK049 ASIC has patented dual signal paths with an ADC and DDC that allow independent controls of both time domain and frequency domain.
Highlights
- Up to 2 GHz bandwidth with Digital Down Converter (DDC)
- Individual time domain and frequency domain controls
- Fast raw IQ data offloading to PC
- RF vs Time Triggering (trigger on frequency or magnitude changes)
High bandwidth manufacturing such as 5G and UWB
Higher data throughput is driving multiple technologies such as 5G mmWave, ultra wide band, WiGig and automotive RADAR. The 6 Series Low Profile is an ideal IF digitizer for multichannel systems and packs 4 high performace 25 GS/s channels into a 2U rack. By using the DDC, there’s up to 30% reduction in data sizes, which means you get your data faster for post-processing.
Highlights
- 2 rack units high (3.5 inches) with rackmount attached
- Easy Remote Control – browser access and control
- Ethernet and USB 3.0 ports for fast data transfer
- Programming support: IVI-C, IVI-COM, MATLAB, LabView, Python, VISA, Sockets, and more
Synchronize multiple high-speed digitizers
Turn two remote digitizers into a single virtual instrument. Discover, search and analyze across more channels then ever before.
- View all channels simultaneously
- Rearrange or group channels
- Unlimited automated measurements
- Easy Ethernet access
Transition from design to manufacturing test, effortlessly
Eliminate work by using exactly the same software and test routines in production that you developed during design. Use the benchtop 6 Series MSO with its 15.6-inch HD display and pinch-swipe-zoom touchscreen for design validation. Run the same user interface, similar hardware while using the compact low-profile digitizer version in manufacturing.
Automated power measurements
Today’s efficient power converters demand less input power per watt of output, but they also demand more in terms of power supply measurements. Automated power measurements ensure simple, repeatable results for verifying and optimizing power circuit performance.
Highlights
- MOSFET switching loss and safe operating area analysis
- Power factor and harmonics measurements for IEC61000-3-2 pre-compliance
- In-circuit inductor and transformer loss measurements
- USB power adapter compliance testing to USB2.0 Battery Charger Specification v1.1 and IEC 62684
Serial analysis and compliance testing, done right
Simplify advanced system design debug and verification with protocol decode and serial trigger options for low- and mid-speed buses. Ensure interoperability of mid-speed serial buses with automated compliance testing.
Highlights
- Protocol decode with serial triggering and analysis options available for I2C, SPI, RS-232/422/485/UART, USB 2.0, Ethernet, MIL-STD-1553B, CAN, LIN, and FlexRay
- Automated compliance testing packages available for USB 2.0, Ethernet, HSIC, MOST, and BroadR-Reach
Advanced signal measurement and analysis
Standard analysis tools include 53 automated measurements, measurement statistics, histograms, limit testing, advanced waveform math, user-definable filters and support for custom MATLAB and .NET math plug-ins. Optional applications such as advanced jitter and eye analysis, and wideband RF analysis, extend your capabilities, while Visual Trigger enables graphical trigger definition.
Highlights
- Characterize signal parameters with a broad suite of standard measurement tools
- Advanced jitter and timing analysis characterizes signal integrity issues and their sources
- SignalVu software provides wideband spectral analysis and measurements, with options for audio, modulation, RF pulses and settling time
- TekScope AnywhereTM software enables off-line measurements and analysis
