Digital Phosphor Oscilloscopes
MSO2000 Series • DPO2000 Series
The Power to Solve Problems Quickly -
The MSO2000 and DPO2000 Series
digital phosphor oscilloscopes (DPOs)
deliver the performance and tools you
need to visualize your signals and find
answers quickly. The DPO2000 Series
are the first oscilloscopes to provide
1 M points of usable record length on
all channels, serial trigger and decode
analysis options, a variable low-pass
filter that also allows you to see signal
details to the oscilloscope’s full band-
width and all in a compact form factor.
The MSO2000 Series adds 16 integrated
digital channels, enabling you to visualize
and time correlate analog and digital
signals on a single instrument. This inte-
gration extends triggering functionality
across all 20 channels - which is ideal
for debugging mixed analog and
digital designs.

Navigation and Search
Imagine trying to efficiently use the
Internet if search engines such as
Google and Yahoo didn’t exist and
Web browser features such as Favorites
and Links didn’t exist. Now you know
how most modern oscilloscope users
feel when trying to use the long record
length in their digital oscilloscope.
Record length, one of the key specifi-
cations of an oscilloscope, is the number
of samples it can digitize and store in
a single acquisition. The longer the
record length, the longer the time
window you can capture with high
timing resolution (high sample rate).
The first digital oscilloscopes could
capture and store only 500 points,
which made it very difficult to acquire
all relevant information around the event
being investigated. Over the years,
oscilloscope vendors have provided
longer and longer record lengths to
meet market demands for long capture
windows with high resolution. These
mega-point record lengths often
represent thousands of screens worth
of signal activity. While standard record
lengths have increased greatly over

Feature-Rich Tools for Debugging Mixed Signal Designs.
Digital phosphor technology enables 5,000
waveforms/second waveform capture and
real-time intensity grading on the MSO2000
and DPO2000 Series.
