Rohde & Schwarz RTO6-B1 - Mixed Signal Option: 16 Digital Channels, 5 GSa/s, 400 MHz Bandwidth (Catalog 1801.6741.02)

Mixed signal option: 16 digital channels, 5 GSa/s, 400 MHz bandwidth.

Enhanced analysis capabilities with mixed-signal option

The unique R&S RTO6 plug&play concept makes upgrading easy. The R&S RTO6-B1 mixed-signal option (MSO) option adds 16 digital channels and is quick to install on site without opening the oscilloscope. Simply insert it into the slot on the rear panel and use all 16 digital channels of the MSO without losing any of the 4 analog input channels.

Straightforward display of digital signals

The R&S RTO-B1 option supports 16 digital channels and simultaneous decoding of up to four parallel buses. Each bus is represented by an icon on the edge of the screen. The R&S SmartGrid function lets you simply drag and drop icons onto the screen. The icons clearly show the current status of all activated logic channels (high, low, toggle) regardless of other oscilloscope settings.

High time resolution over the entire memory depth

With a sampling rate of 5 Gsample/s, the R&S RTO6-B1 mixed signal option (MSO) provides a maximum time resolution of 200 ps for all digital channels. This sampling rate is available over the entire memory depth of 200 Msample per channel. As a result, the MSO option can detect critical events such as narrow or widely separated glitches.

Precise triggering on signal events

The R&S RTO6-B1 option offers numerous triggers for debugging and analysis, such as edge, width, pattern and serial pattern. These triggers can be combined with holdoff conditions. Choose either individual digital channels or bus signals as trigger sources. The digital channel resolution of 200 ps makes these channels a precise trigger source.

Analysis of parallel and serial protocols with digital channels

Use digital channels to decode parallel buses. They are displayed in a digital bus format or as an analog waveform. For clocked parallel buses, the decoded contents can also be displayed in a table. You can also use the digital channels of the R&S®RTO-B1 option to decode serial interface protocols such as SPI and I2 C.
