Rohde and Schwarz RTB2004 – Four Channel, 70 MHz Digital Oscilloscope (Order # 1333.1005.04)

Rohde and Schwarz RTB2004 – Four Channel, 70 MHz Digital Oscilloscope (Order # 1333.1005.04)

The Rohde and Schwarz RTB2004 (order # 1333.1005.04) is a four channel, 70 MHz digital oscilloscope with a 10 bit A/D converter and 10.1″ capacitive touch screen. Bandwidth on this item is easily upgraded via software keycode. The RTB2004 also contains a logic probe port – it can be converted into a mixed signal oscilloscope with a software keycode and logic probe.

10-bit vertical resolution

The RTB2000 features a customized Rohde & Schwarz engineered 10-bit A/D converter that delivers a four-fold improvement compared to conventional 8-bit A/D converters.

The increased resolution results in sharper waveforms with more signal details that would otherwise be missed. One example is the characterization of switched-mode power supplies. The voltages across the switching device must be determined during the on/off times within the same acquisition. For precise measurements of small voltage components, a high resolution of more than 8-bit is essential.

1 mV/div: full measurement bandwidth and low noise

The RTB2000 oscilloscope offers an outstanding sensitivity down to 1 mV/div. Traditional oscilloscopes reach this level of input sensitivity only by employing software-based magnification or by limiting the bandwidth. The RTB2000 oscilloscope shows the signal’s real sampling points over the full measurement bandwidth – even at 1 mV/div. This ensures high measurement accuracy.

Capture more time at full bandwidth

10 Msample standard and 20 Msample interleaved

The RTB2000 offers a class-leading memory depth: 10 Msample per channel are available, even 20 Msample in interleaved mode. This is 10 times more than similar oscilloscopes in the same instrument class. The user captures longer acquisition sequences even at high sampling rates, e.g. when analyzing transients of switched-mode power supplies, and thus benefits from more detailed analysis results.

Maintains fast sampling rates at all times

Signal faults and important events are detected better with an oscilloscope that offers a high sampling rate. Many applications require long acquisition cycles, for instance when analyzing serial protocols. With a sampling rate of up to 2.5 Gsample/s and a memory depth of up to 20 Msample, the RTB2000 oscilloscopes really excel here. They display signals accurately, right down to the details and even for long sequences.

Logic Analysis with the MSO option

16 additional digital channels

The RTB-B1 option turns every RTB2000 into an intuitive-to-use MSO with 16 additional digital channels. The oscilloscope captures and analyzes signals from analog and digital components of an embedded design – synchronously and time-correlated to each other. For example, the delay between input and output of an A/D converter can be conveniently be determined using the cursor measurements.

Waveform and pattern generator

Generate analog and digital stimuli

The RTB-B6 waveform and pattern generator (up to 50 Mbit/s) is useful for educational purposes and for implementing prototype hardware. Apart from the common sine, square/pulse, ramp and noise waveforms, it outputs arbitrary waveforms and 4-bit signal patterns. Waveforms and patterns can be imported as CSV files or copied from oscilloscope waveforms. Predefined patterns such as I2C, SPI, UART and CAN/LIN can also be used.
