Comparison Videos vs Tektronix MSO2000B

Sampling

MSO5000 Series units feature a high 8GSa/s sample rate which helps you avoid problems like undersampling and signal distortion. This compares strongly against the MSO2000B from Tektronix.

 

Long Memory Capture

The MSO5000 Series gives users best in class zoom, search, and measurement capabilities thanks to deep memory up to 200 times greater than what you get with MSO2000B units from Tek.

 
 

FFT Comparison

The RIGOL 5000 Series delivers high resolution FFTs (up to 1 Mpts) with Spectrum Analyzer like controls including span, peak search, and color density.

 

Waveform Capture Rate

When comparing waveform capture rate performance, the MSO5000 delivers significant performance advantages over the MSO2000B thanks to RIGOL UltraVision II architecture.

 
 

Storage Speed

The ability to quickly and easily move data off of your instrument for off-line analysis is critical. RIGOL stacks up strongly against Tek in this comparison.
