Said to be the most compact lab oscilloscope available for multidomain applications, the RTO2000 from Rohde & Schwarz allows complex measurements to be made quickly.Said to be the most compact lab oscilloscope available for multidomain applications, the RTO2000 from Rohde & Schwarz allows complex measurements to be made quickly.
According to the company, the device allows developers to analyse how functional units in advanced embedded designs – such as power supplies, the processor system and the sensor technology – interact. The scope also displays correlations between time, frequency, protocol and logic analysis measurement results.
The RTO2000 is said to be the first oscilloscope in its class to offer a memory of up to 2Gsample. This supports the history function, which provides access to previously acquired waveforms, with a trigger timestamp allows time correlation. Users can view saved signals and analyse them using tools such as zoom, measurement, math and spectrum analysis functions.
New features are said to include peak list, maximum hold detectors and a logarithmic display, while a zone trigger enables the graphical separation of events in the time and frequency domains. Up to eight zones of any shape can be defined and the trigger is activated when a signal either intersects or does not intersect the zone.
Capable of capturing up to 1million waveform/s, the RTO2000 has a vertical resolution to up to 16bit, while HD mode enables configurable lowpass filtering of the signal after the A/D converter. In this way, says the company, users can trigger on the smallest signals.
The RTO2000 is available in two and four channel versions and with bandwidths of 600MHz, 1GHz, 2GHz, 3GHz and 4GHz.
