Features & benefits

Top-class hardware based acquisition

Top-class hardware-based acquisition for precise measurement results

With a sampling rate of up to 2 Gsample/s and a memory depth of up to 2 Msample, the R&S®RTC1000 oscilloscope excels in its class. A waveform update rate of more than 10 000 waveforms/s ensures a responsive instrument that reliably catches signal faults. Included tools provide quick results, e.g. QuickMeas, mask tests, FFT, math, cursors and automatic measurements (including statistics).

Logic analysis with the MSO option

Eight additional digital channels

The R&S®RTC-B1 option turns every R&S®RTC1000 into an intuitive-to-use MSO with eight additional digital channels. The oscilloscope captures and analyzes signals from analog and digital components in an embedded design - synchronously and time-correlated to each other. For example, the delay between the input and output of an A/D converter can be conveniently determined using the cursor measurements.

Serial bus analysis

Hardware- based trigggering and decoding

Protocols such as I²C, SPI and CAN/LIN frequently transfer control messages between integrated circuits. The R&S®RTC1000 has versatile options for protocol- specific triggering and decoding of serial interfaces. Selective acquisition and analysis of relevant events and data is possible. With the hardware-based implementation, smooth operation and a high update rate are ensured even for long acquisitions. This is advantageous, for example, for capturing multiple packetized serial bus signals.

Digital voltmeter

Measure and display electrical potential

For simultaneous measurements, the R&S®RTC1000 features a three-digit digital voltmeter (DVM) and six-digit frequency counter on each channel. Provided measurement functions include DC, AC + DC (RMS) and AC (RMS).

Waveform and pattern generator

Generate analog and digital stimuli

The integrated R&S®RTC-B6 waveform and pattern generator up to 50 Mbit/s is useful for educational purposes and for implementing prototype hardware. In addition to common sine, square/pulse, ramp and noise waveforms, it outputs 4-bit patterns. Waveforms and patterns can be imported as CSV files or copied from oscilloscope waveforms. You can preview signals before playing them back to quickly check signal correctness. Predefined patterns for e.g. I2C, SPI, UART and CAN/LIN are provided.

Component Tester

Determining current-voltage characteristics with the oscilloscope

You will also benefit from the included component tester. A 50 Hz and a 200 Hz measuring frequency are provided to support your potentially tedious search for faulty components. And since a picture says more than a thousand words - or rather a thousand values - you will be able to tell at a glance if your error analysis is on track.
