Solve: 6-in-1 integration allows new measurement possibilities
In addition to the class leading oscilloscope and powerful serial protocol analysis capabilities, the 3000T X-Series offers four additional integrated instrument capabilities not always found in this class of oscilloscope.
Integrated mixed signal oscilloscope (MSO - optional)
The 3000T X-Series offers 16 optional, integrated and upgradable digital channels. Digital content is everywhere in today’s designs and traditional 2 and 4 channel oscilloscopes do not always provide enough channels for the job at hand.
With an additional 16 integrated digital channels, you now have up to 20 channels of time-correlated acquisition and viewing on the same instrument. In addition to offering powerful triggering across the analog and digital channels, this also gives you additional channels to use for serial decode and triggering. And if you buy a 2 or 4 channel DSO, you can upgrade it at any time to an MSO with a software license.
Integrated WaveGen: Built-in 20 MHz function/arbitrary waveform generator (optional)
The 3000T X-Series offers an integrated 20 MHz function/arbitrary waveform generator, available with modulation support (DSOX3WAVEGEN). The function generator provides stimulus output of sine, square, ramp, pulse, DC, Sinc (x), exponential rise/fall, cardiac, Gaussian Pulse and noise waveforms to your device under test. The modulation feature supports AM, FM, and FSK modulations with modulation shapes of sine, square, and ramp. With AWG functionality, you can store waveforms from analog channels or reference memory to the arbitrary memory and output from WaveGen. Then easily create or edit the waveform using the built-in editor via touch and the large screen or by using Keysight’s Benchlink Waveform Builder software: www.keysight.com/ind/33503.
Integrated frequency measurements: Optional 8-digit counter and totalizer
Traditional oscilloscope counter measurements offer only five or six digits of resolution, which may not be enough for the most critical frequency measurements are being made.
With the 3000T X-Series’ optional 8-digit counter (part of the DSOXT3DVMCTR option), you can see your measurements with the precision you would normally expect only from a standalone counter. Because the integrated counter measures frequencies up to a wide bandwidth of 1.0 GHz, you can use it for many high-frequency applications as well. If you are looking for the ultimate precision, you can connect your 3000T X-Series oscilloscope to your most trusted 10-MHz reference source to share a common 10-MHz clock.
The totalizer feature of the DSOXT3DVMCTR counter option adds another valuable capability to the oscilloscope. It can count the number of events (totalize), and it also can monitor the number of trigger-condition-qualified events. The trigger-qualified events totalizer does not require an actual trigger to occur. It only requires a trigger-satisfying event to take place. In other words, the totalizer can monitor events faster than the trigger rate of a scope, as fast as 25 million events per second (a function of the oscilloscope’s holdoff time, which has the minimum of 40 ns). Figures 27 shows example of a totalizer counting the number of CAN-FD CRC delimiter bit error packets that took place in a design.
Solve: Hardware accelerated mask/limit testing (option) makes it easy to see the performance of your device
Whether you are performing pass/fail tests to specified standards in manufacturing or testing for infrequent signal anomalies, mask/limit testing can be a valuable productivity tool (DSOX3MASK). The 3000T X-Series features powerful hardware-based mask testing that can perform up to 270,000 tests per second. You can select multiple test criteria, including the ability to run tests for a specific number of acquisitions, a specified time, or until detection of a failure.
Solve: Integrated power measurements and analysis (option) make short work of power measurements
When you are working with switching power supplies and power devices, the power measurements application (DSOX3PWR) provides a full suite of power measurements and analysis in the oscilloscope.
Included with the DSOX3PWR is a license for the U1881A PC-based power analysis software package, which provides additional offline measurements and report generation.
In addition there are several power specific probes that make analysis of your power supplies (e.g. switch mode power supplies) and power consuming devices (e.g. batteries) easy.
Solve: Innovative power rail probe (option) allows enhanced views.
The power rail noise, ripple, and transients measurements can be challenging due to required offset range and mV sensitivity. With its ±24 V offset range, ultra-low noise 1:1 attenuation ratio, and 2-GHz bandwidth, the N7020A power rail probe is for users making critical power integrity measurements that need mV sensitivity on their DC power rails.
Solve: Video analysis (option)
Whether you are debugging consumer electronics with HDTV or characterizing a design, the HDTV measurement application (DSOX3VID) provides support for a variety of HDTV standards for triggering and analysis.
While the “Touch, Discover, Solve” elements of the scope highlight the key features that will make it easy to debug and troubleshoot your device, there are other features that you may also want to consider when choosing your next oscilloscope.
Total cost of ownership:
The 3000T X-Series offers an extremely low cost of ownership. Between the standard 3yr warranty, an industry leading mean time between failure (MTBF) of over 250,000 hours and a market-leading calibration period of 3 years, you can rest assured that your investment in a 3000T X-Series will be protected for years to come. In addition, because needs change over time, you can purchase just what you need today and then upgrade the scope’s bandwidth or measurement application easily over time as your projects evolve.
Educator and Training Kit:
Have new hires that need to quickly become familiar with the scope? Or are you a professor that wants to teach your students what an oscilloscope is and how to perform basic measurements? The optional Educator’s Oscilloscope Training Kit (DSOXEDK) makes that easy. It includes training tools created specifically for electrical engineering and physics undergraduate students and professors. It contains an array of built-in training signals, a comprehensive oscilloscope lab guide and tutorial written specifically for the undergraduate student and an oscilloscope fundamentals PowerPoint slide set for professors and lab assistants.
Built-in features to help the infrequent user:
In addition to the optional educator’s training kit, the oscilloscope includes a localized front panel and GUI available in 15 languages, along with an integrated (and localized) help system. Just hold any hard key or soft panel button and a brief overview will appear that explains how to use that feature.
30-day trial license:
The 3000T X-Series comes with a one-time 30-day, all optional-features trial license. You can choose to start the 30-day trial at any time. In addition you can redeem individual optional feature 30-day trial licenses at any time by visiting www.keysight.com/ind/30daytrial. This enables you to receive in effect 60 days of trial license of each optional feature.
Next generation probing:
All 3000T X-Series come standard with a newly designed, very robust 500 MHz 10:1 passive probe per channel. In addition, MSOs include a newly designed cable with a lexible cable management system that makes probing with the 16-digital channels easy.
Uncompromised 1,000,000 waveform per second update rate minimize the dead-time for maximum probability of capturing infrequent events and anomalies.
