Application-Specific Measurements
—extending your measurement capability
You can load optional measurement extensions as needed to enhance the capabilities of the
instrument for specific applications. These applications build on the precision signal acquisition
performance of the instrument to address your specific design requirements.
Here are some examples of the application packages:
 Jitter and Timing Analysis—Use the TDSJIT3 or TDSJIT3E software to characterize the
timing performance of semiconductor systems. Analyze clock jitter, setup and hold times, and
many other timing measurements on a cycle-by-cycle basis over long, single-shot
acquisitions. Measurement statistics are presented as numerical statistics, or graphically in a
histogram, cycle trend, time trend, or spectral plot.
 Disk Drive Measurements—Use the TDSDDM2 software to measure disk drive signals
according to IDEMA standards.
 Optical Storage Analysis and Measurements—Use the TDSDVD software for automatic
amplitude and timing measurements.
 Ethernet Compliance Testing—Use the TDSET3 software to perform 10/100/1000 Base T
Ethernet compliance testing.
 USB2 Signals—Use the TDSUSB2 software to characterize USB2 signals including mask
testing and parametric testing.
 Mask and Measurement Compliance—Use the TDSCPM2 software for mask and
measurements compliance testing for ITU-T G.703 and ANSI T1.102 communications
standards.
 Power Measurements—Us the TDSPWR3 software to quickly measure and analyze power
dissipation in power supply switching devices and magnetic components.
Additional packages may be available. Contact your Tektronix representative for more
information.
Connecting to a Network
—as easy as networking a PC
The instrument is built on a PC-based platform that runs Microsoft Windows as its operating
system. Like any other Windows computer, you can connect the instrument to a network to enable
printing, file sharing, Internet access, and other communications functions.
To make a network connection, perform the steps to enable network access.
Consult your network
administrator for assistance.
