Tektronix MSO44B

The 4 Series B MSO sets a new standard for performance, analysis capabilities and overall user experience in bench oscilloscopes --ideal for debugging and validating embedded systems and power converters. The second generation of this instrument incorporates a new processing platform, more than doubling its responsiveness, and significantly accelerating measurements and data transfers with full support for remote operation and control. 

Keycode bandwidth upgrades mean that an in stock 200 MHz model can be instantly upgraded by the user to 350, 500 MHz, 1 or 1.5 GHz

Models are available with 4 or 6 FlexChannel® inputs for high visibility into designs. High resolution 12-bit sampling delivers precise measurements on a new higher-contrast 13.3-inch HD display. And synchronized, multi-channel spectrum analysis facilitates noise hunting and RF measurements. This exceptional measurement performance is paired with an intuitive award-winning user interface making it easy to achieve fast, accurate results.
