Specifications
This chapter contains specifications for the DPO4000 and the MSO4000 series
oscilloscopes. All specifications are guaranteed unless noted as "typical."
Typical spec
ifications are provided for your convenience but are not guaranteed.
Specifications that are marked with the
symbol are checked in Performance
Verification.
All specifications apply to all DPO4000 and MSO4000 models unless noted
otherwise. To meet specifications, two conditions must first be met:
The oscilloscope must have been operating continuously for twenty minutes
within the operating temperature range specified.
You must perform the Signal Path Compensation (SPC) operation described
in the Tektronix 4000 Series Digital Phosphor Oscilloscopes User Manual
prior to evaluating specifications. If the operating temperature changes by
more than 10 °C (18 °F), you must perform the SPC operation again.
