Analog Bandwidth
Defined in Section 4.6 of IEEE std 1057. The difference between the upper and lower frequencies, at
which the amplitude response, as seen in the data record, is 0.707 (-3 dB) of the response seen in the
data record at the specified reference frequency. Specifies only the -3 dB point. It does not include
the in-band response.
This is analog bandwidth when the instrument is DC coupled in sample or average mode. V/div values
are accurate for probe attenuation settings of 1X. No probe should be installed for these measurements.
System bandwidth is type tested to be equivalent to this specification with the provided probe in 10X
mode. Use Section 4.6.1 of IEEE 1057, with the reference frequency of 1 kHz at an amplitude of
5 divisions, driven from a 50 Ω source with external termination at the input BNC (25 Ω effective source).

0°C and 35 °C. DC to > 160 MHz for 5 mV/div through 5 V /div settings with bandwidth limit at full for
temperatures between 0 °C and 50 °C. < 5 mV/div settings are limited to 20 MHz bandwidth.

TDS2001C:
DC to ≥ 50 MHz for 5 mV/div through 5 V/div settings with the bandwidth limit at full. < 5 mV/div settings
are limited to 20 MHz bandwidth.
This is the analog bandwidth when the instrument is DC coupled. V/div values are accurate for probe
attenuation settings of 1X. No probe should be installed for these measurements.
