Affordable digital precision

With up to 100 MHz bandwidth and 1 GS/s maximum sample rate, no other digital storage oscilloscope offers as much bandwidth and sample rate for the price. The TDS1000B Series oscilloscopes provide accurate real-time acquisition up to their full bandwidth, the same record length at all time base settings, advanced triggers to isolate signals of interest, and 12 standard automatic measurements on all models. Their Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and waveform add, subtract, and multiply math functions allow you to analyze, characterize, and troubleshoot circuits.

Quick and easy waveform capture

The simple user interface with classic analog-style controls makes these instruments easy to use, reducing learning time and increasing efficiency. Innovative features such as the Autoset Menu, Probe Check Wizard, and Context-sensitive Help Menu optimize instrument setup and operation.
