DSP boosts deep-memory real-time DSO's bandwidth to 8 GHz.(leading edge; digital signal processing)( digital storage oscilloscope)

EDN, April, 2004 by Strassberg, Dan

WITH THE announcement of the TDS6000B series, Tektronix, whose 7-GHz-bandwidth TDS7704B boasted the widest -3-dB bandwidth of any real-time-sampling DSO, increases its bandwidth lead over competitors Agilent (www.lecroy. com). Tek's new $74,990 TDS 6804B offers a user-selectable DSP-enhanced mode, which increases--to 8 GHz--the scope's 7-GHz unenhanced analog bandwidth. The TD-S6000B units are the first in the TDS6000-series to offer a true deep-memory architecture. Memory depth is 32M samples/channel maximum, compared with 15,000 samples/channel in earlier TDS-6000 family members. The TDS6804B and the $64,990, 6-GHz-bandwidth TD$6604B can simultaneously take 20G samples/sec on all channels, making them Tek's first deep-memory units with band-width of 4 GHz or more...
