W ave Inspector®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

the years and can now satisfy the vast
majority of applications in the market-
place, tools for effectively and efficiently
viewing, navigating, and analyzing
long record length acquisitions have
been sorely neglected until now.
The Tektronix MSO/DPO2000 Series
redefines expectations for working with
long record lengths with the following
innovative Wave Inspector controls:
Zoom/Pan - A dedicated, two-tier
front-panel control provides intuitive
control of both zooming and panning.
The inner control adjusts the zoom
factor (or zoom scale); turning it clock-
wise activates zoom and goes to
progr essively higher zoom factors, while
turning it counterclockwise results in
lower zoom factors and eventually turning
zoom off. The outer control pans the
zoom box across the waveform to quickly
get to the portion of the waveform you
are interested in.
The outer control also utilizes force-
feedback to determine how fast to
pan on the waveform. The farther you
turn the outer control, the faster the
zoom box moves. Pan direction is
changed by simply turning the control
the other way. No longer do you need
to navigate through multiple menus to
adjust your zoom view.
Play/Pause - A dedicated play/pause
button on the front panel scrolls the
waveform across the display automatically
while you look for anomalies or an event
of interest. Playback speed and dir ection
are contr olled using the intuitive pan control.
Once again, turning the control further
makes the waveform scroll faster and
changing direction is as simple as
turning the control the other way.
User Marks - See something interesting
on your waveform? Press the Set Mark
button on the front panel to leave one
or more “bookmarks” on the waveform.
Navigating between marks is as simple
as pressing the Previous ( ) and
Next ( )buttons on the front panel.
Search Marks - Don’t want to take
the time to inspect the entire acquisition
manually to find the event you’re looking
for? The MSO/DPO2000 Series features
a robust automatic waveform search
feature that allows you to sear ch thr ough
your long acquisition based on user -defined
criteria. All occurrences of the event are
highlighted with search marks and are
easily navigated to, using the front-panel
Previous ( ) and Next ()
buttons. Search types include edge,
pulse width, runt, logic, setup and hold,
rise/fall time and parallel, I2C, SPI, RS-
232/422/485/ UART, CAN, and LIN
packet content.
Wave Inspector controls provide unprecedented efficiency in viewing,navigating, and analyzing waveform
data. Zip through your 1 M point record by turning the outer pan control (2). Get from the beginning to
end in seconds. See something of interest and want to see more details? Just turn the inner zoom
control (1).
Search step 1:You define what you would like
to find.
Search step 2: MSO/DPO2000 automatically
searches through the record and marks each
event with a hollow white triangle.
Search step 3: Use previous and next buttons
to jump from one event to the next.

Serial Triggering and Analysis
One of the most common applications
requiring long r ecord length is serial data
analysis in embedded system design.
Embedded systems are virtually every-
where. They can contain many different
types of devices including microproces-
sors, microcontrollers, DSPs, RAM,
EEPROMs, FPGAs, ADCs, DACs, and
I/O. These various devices have tradi-
tionally communicated with each other
and the outside world using wide parallel
buses. Today, however, more and more
embedded systems are replacing these
wide parallel buses with serial buses
due to lower board space r equirements,
fewer pins, lower power, embedded
clocks, differential signaling for better
noise immunity and most importantly,
lower cost. In addition, there’s a large
supply of off-the-shelf building block
components from reputable manufac-
turers, enabling rapid design development.
While serial buses have a large number
of benefits, they also present significant
challenges that their predecessors (parallel
buses) did not face.They make debug-
ging bus and system problems more
difficult, it’s harder to isolate events of
interest and it’s more difficult to interpret
what is displayed on the oscilloscope
screen. The MSO2000 and DPO2000
Series address these challenges and
represent the ultimate tool for engi-
neers working with serial buses such
as I2C, SPI, RS-232/422/ 485/UART,
CAN, and LIN.
Bus Display - Provides a higher level,
combined view of the individual signals
(clock, data, chip enable, etc.) that make
up your bus, making it easy to identify
where packets begin and end and
identifying sub-packet components such
as address, data, identifier, CRC, etc.
Serial Triggering - Trigger on packet
content such as start of packet, specific
addresses, specific data content, unique
identifiers, etc., on popular serial inter-
faces - I2C, SPI, RS-232/422/485/UART,
CAN, and LIN.
Bus Decoding - Tired of having to
visually inspect the waveform to count
clocks and determine if each bit is a 1
or a 0, and then combine bits into bytes
and determine the hex value? Let the
oscilloscope do it for you! Once you’ve
set up a bus, the oscilloscope will decode
each packet on the bus and display the
value in either hex, binary, decimal (LIN
only), or ASCII (RS-232/422/485/UART
only) in the bus waveform.
Event Table - In addition to seeing
decoded packet data on the bus wave-
form itself, you can view all captured
packets in a tabular view much like you
would see on a logic analyzer. Packets
are time-stamped and listed consecu-
tively with columns for each component
(Address, Data, etc.). The event table
can also be exported for use offline.
Search - Serial triggering is very useful
for isolating an event of interest, but
once you’ve captured it and need to
analyze the surrounding data, what do
you do? In the past, you had to manually
scroll through the waveform, counting
and converting bits and looking for what
caused the event. With the MSO2000
and DPO2000 Series, you can have the
oscilloscope automatically search thr ough
the acquired data for user-defined criteria
including serial packet content. Each
occurrence is marked for easy r efer ence.
Rapid navigation between marks is as
simple as pressing the Previous ( ) and
Next ( ) buttons on the front panel.
Mixed Signal Design and Analysis
(MSO2000 Series)
As an embedded-design engineer, you
are faced with the challenge of ever-
increasing system complexity. A typical
embedded design may incorporate
various analog signals, high- and low-
speed serial digital communication and
microprocessor buses, just to name a
few. Serial protocols such as I2C and
SPI are used frequently for chip-to-chip
communication, but parallel buses are
still used in many applications.
MSO/DPO2000 triggered on a specific data packet going across an I2C bus. No more counting clock
edges and 1s and 0s.A Bus waveform provides decoded packet content including Start, Address,
Read/Write, Data, and Stop.And the addition of timing waveforms makes it easy to quickly determine
values of two signals.
The P6316 digital probe for MSO2000 Series
simplifies connection to the device-under-test
Digital Phospor Oscilloscopes
MSO2000 Series • DPO2000 Series
Microprocessors, FPGAs, Analog-to-
Digital Converters (ADCs), and Digital-
to-Analog Converters (DACs) are all
examples of ICs that present unique
measurement challenges in today’s
embedded designs. The MSO2000
Series Mixed Signal Oscilloscopes offer
the addition of 16 digital channels. These
channels are tightly integrated into the
oscilloscope’s user interface, simplifying
operation and making it possible to
solve mixed signal issues easily.
Next Generation Digital
Waveform Display
In a continued effort to make mixed
signal oscilloscopes easy to use, the
MSO2000 Series has redefined the
way you view digital waveforms. One
common problem shared by both logic
analyzers and mixed signal oscilloscopes
is determining if data is a one or a zero
when zoomed in far enough that the
digital trace stays flat all the way across
the display. The MSO2000 has color-
coded the digital traces, displaying ones
in green and zeros in blue. In addition,
the MSO2000 displays white edges
around the transition points of digital
channels when there is uncertainty
between sample points. This acts as
a visual reminder that increasing the
sample rate on the next acquisition will
reveal higher frequency information than
your previous settings could acquire.
Channel setup on an MSO can often
be time consuming as compared to the
traditional oscilloscope. This process
often includes probing the device under-
test, labeling the channels, and positioning
the channels on screen. The MSO2000
simplifies this process by allowing the
user to group digital waveforms and
enter waveform labels using a USB
keyboard. By simply placing digital
waveforms next to each other, they form
a group. Once a group is formed, you
can position all the channels contained
in that group together. This greatly r educes
the normal setup time associated with
positioning channels individually.
P6316 MSO Probe
This unique probe design offers two
eight-channel pods and simplifies the
process of connecting to the device-
under-test. When connecting to square
pins, the P6316 can connect directly to
8x2 square pin headers spaced on
tenth-inch centers. When more attach-
ment flexibility is required, you can use
the included flying lead sets and grab-
bers to clip onto surface mount devices
or test points. The P6316 offers
outstanding electrical characteristics
applying only 8 pF of loading with
101 kΩinput impedance.
FilterVuTM Variable Low-Pass Filter
Tired of being limited to a 20 MHz
bandwidth filter in your oscilloscope?
Simply turn on FilterVu and adjust the
variable low-pass noise filter. Unlike
other variable low-pass filters, FilterVu
filters out the unwanted noise from your
signal while still capturing glitches and
other signal details up to the full band-
width of the oscilloscope. It does this
by showing two waveforms: a waveform
that can be filtered (for egr ound waveform)
and a glitch capture waveform (back-
ground waveform).
The filtered waveform uses a variable
low-pass filter to block out noise,
yielding a cleaner waveform to more
precisely locate signal edges and ampli-
tude levels. The result is improved
confidence in you cursor measure-
ments and cleaner documentation of
important signal attributes. When the
noise filter is adjusted to the lowest
available noise cutoff frequency, no
more than 1% of high-fr equency content
that could cause the oscilloscope to
alias will pass through the filter.
The glitch capture waveform shows
signal details up to the full bandwidth
of the oscilloscope. The oscilloscope
captures pulses as narrow as 5 ns,
using peak detect min/max sampling,
protecting you fr om missing unexpected
glitches or other high-frequency events.
FilterV u is ideal for r epetitive, nonr epetitive
and single-shot events.
