Oscilloscopes redefined: Breakthrough technology delivers more scope for the same budget
Performance characteristics
Trigger type selections
All 3000 X-Series models
Characteristics
Edge Trigger on a rising, falling, alternating or either edge of any source
Pulse width Trigger on a pulse on a selected channel, whose time duration is less than a value, greater
than a value, or inside a time range
• Minimum duration setting: 2 ns- 10 ns (depends on bandwidth)
• Maximum duration setting: 10 s
Runt Trigger on a position runt pulse that fails to exceed a high level threshold. Trigger on a
negative runt pulse that fails to exceed a low level threshold. Trigger on either polarity runt
pulse based on two threshold settings. Runt triggering can also be time-qualified (< or >) with
a minimum time setting of 4 ns and maximum timesetting of 10 s.
Setup and hold Trigger and clock/data setup and/or hold time violation from < 0.0 to 10 s
Rise/fall time Trigger on rise time or fall time edge speed violations (< or >) based on user-selectable
threshold. Time settings range from (< or >) or 2 ns to 10 s.
N
th
edge bust Trigger on the N
th
edge of a burst that occurs after a specified idle time.
Pattern Trigger when a specified pattern of high, low, and don’t care levels on any combination of
analog, digital , or trigger channels is [entered | exited]. Pattern must have stabilized for a
minimum of 2 ns to qualify as a valid trigger condition.
Time-qualified pattern Trigger on a multi-channel pattern whose time duration is less than a value, greater than a
value, greater than a time value with a timeout, or inside or outside of a set of time values.
• Minimum duration setting: 2 ns - 10 ns (depends on bandwidth)
• Maximum duration setting: 10 s
OR Trigger Trigger on any selected edge across multiple analog or digital channels
Edge then Edge (B Trigger) Arm on a selected edge, wait a specified time, then trigger on a specified count of
another selected edge
Video (Standard) Trigger on all lines or individual lines, odd/even or all fields from composite video, or
broadcast standards (NTSC, PAL, SECAM, PAM-M)
Enhanced Video (optional) Trigger on lines and fields of enhanced and HDTV standards (480p/60, 567p/50, 720p/50,
720p/60, 1080p/24, 1080p/25, 1080p/30, 1080p/50, 1080p/60, 1080i/50, 1080i/60).
USB Trigger on start of packet, end of packet, reset complete, enter suspend, or exit suspend.
Support USB low-speed and full-speed.
I

C (optional) Trigger on I
2
C (Inter-IC bus) serial protocol at a start/stop condition or user defined frame
with address and/or data values. Also trigger on missing acknowledge, address with no accq,
restart, EEPROM read, and 10-bit write.
SPI (optional) Trigger on SPI (Serial Peripherial Interface) data pattern during a specific framing period.
Supports positive and negative Chip Select framing as well as clock Idle framing and user-
specified number of bits per frame.
RS-232/422/485/UART (optional) Trigger on Rx or Tx start bit, stop bit or data content
I²S (optional) Trigger on 2’s complement data of audio left channel or right channel (=, ≠, <, >, > <, < >,
increasing value, or decreasing value)
CAN (optional) Trigger on CAN (controller area network) version 2.0A and 2.0B signals. Trigger on the start
of frame (SOF) bit (standard). Remote frame ID (RTR), data frame ID (~RTR), remote or data
frame ID, data frame ID and data, error frame, all errors, acknowledge error and overload
frame.
LIN (optional) Trigger on LIN (Local Interconnect Network) sync break, sync frame ID, or frame ID and data.
FlexRay (optional) Trigger on FlexRay signals based on frame ID, frame type (sync, start-up, null, normal), cycle-
repetitive, cycle-base, and errors.
MIL-STD 1553 (optional) Trigger on MIL-STD 1553 signals based on word type (Data or Command/Status), Remote
Terminal Address, data, and errors (parity, sync, Manchester encoding).
ARINC 429 (optional) Trigger on ARINC 429 signals based on label, data, and errors (parity, word, gap).
