Specifications
This chapter contains specifications for the DPO2000 and the MSO2000 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 DPO2000 and MSO2000 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 prior to
evaluating specifications. (See page 18, Signal Path Compensation (SPC).)
If the operating temperature changes by more than 10 °C (18 °F), you must
perform the SPC operation again.

channels
2 analog, digitized simultaneously 4 analog, digitized simultaneously
Input coupling
DC, AC, or GND
AC coupling connects a capacitor in se ries with the input circuitry.
GND coupling provides a reference waveform derived from the values identified during SPC. This reference
waveform shows visually where ground is expected to be.

Maximum input
voltage
The maximum input voltage at the BNC, between the center conductor and shield is 450 V

TekVPI Interface The probe interface allows installing, powering, compensating, and controlling a wide range of probes
offering a variety of features
If a probe requires 12 V bulk power, it must be supplied by the Optional External Power Adapter
The interface is available on all front panel inputs including Aux In
Total probe power
50 W from optional 12 V VPI External Power Adapter
Zero 12 V bulk power without optional External Power Adapter
