TBS1000, TBS1000B/B-EDU, and TDS2000C Series: Reliability By Design
Industrial-Grade Display
The TBS1000/TDS Series platforms use industrial-grade LCD 
displays. 
  Better brightness and viewing characteristics.
  Longer lifetime than the consumer- grade displays used in 
most other entry-level oscilloscopes. 
− For example, the LED backlight component’s lifespan in 
typical industrial displays is rated at twice the lifetime of 
those found in consumer grade displays.
− The TBS1000B/B-EDU Series platform uses an industrial 
grade liquid crystal TFT color display that utilizes a 7 inch 
(180 mm) wide screen format and enables the viewing of 
intricate signal details.

ever experiences failure throughout its lifetime, these products
