4- Logic Analyzer (Optional)

The logic analyzer (option MDO4MSO) provides 16 digital channels which

are tightly integrated into the oscilloscope's user interface. This simplifies

operation and makes it possible to solve mixed-signal issues easily.

The MDO4000C Series provides 16 integrated digital channels enabling you to view and

analyze time-correlated analog and digital signals.

Color-coded digital waveform display – Color-coded digital traces

display ones in green and zeros in blue. This coloring is also used in the

digital channel monitor. The monitor shows if signals are high, low, or are

transitioning so you can see channel activity at a glance without having to

clutter your display with unneeded digital waveforms.

The multiple transition detection hardware shows you a white edge on the

display when the system detects multiple transitions. White edges indicate

that more information is available by zooming in or acquiring at faster

sampling rates. In most cases zooming in will reveal the pulse that was not

viewable with the previous settings. If the white edge is still present after

zooming in as far as possible, this indicates that increasing the sample rate

on the next acquisition will reveal higher frequency information than the

previous settings could acquire.

You can group digital waveforms and enter waveform labels by using a

USB keyboard. By simply placing digital waveforms next to each other, they

form a group.

With color-coded digital waveform display, groups are created by simply placing digital

channels together on the screen, allowing digital channels to be moved as a group.

Once a group is formed, you can position all the channels contained in that

group collectively. This greatly reduces the normal setup time associated

with positioning channels individually

MagniVu

high-speed acquisition – The main digital acquisition mode

on the MSO4000C Series will capture up to 20M points at 500 MS/s (2 ns

resolution). In addition to the main record, the oscilloscope provides an

ultra high-resolution record called MagniVu which acquires 10,000 points at

up to 16.5 GS/s (60.6 ps resolution). Both main and MagniVu waveforms

are acquired on every trigger and can be switched between in the display at

any time, running or stopped. MagniVu provides significantly finer timing

resolution than comparable MSOs on the market, instilling confidence when

making critical timing measurements on digital waveforms.

The MagniVu high-resolution record provides 60.6 ps timing resolution, enabling you to

take critical timing measurements on your digital waveforms.
