The jitter function included in the system has helped me in terms of improving the capabilities of our product, but more improvement can be done on the PAM-4 part

The features are pretty much the same as an expensive competitor, but the price is better. If you have a lot of money to spend, then go for the most advanced solution. However, if you have money constraints, this the best solution for your application. We are using this product to support connected devices. We are measuring signals for PAM-4.

High sampling rate enables it to clearly render the envelope

I wish we could turn off the automatic measurement feature of the oscilloscope, for teaching purposes. This probably sounds weird, but I think it important that students get familiar with the waveforms and actually count divisions. This gives a feel for how many digits are really significant, that noise can be part of signals, that it helps to increase the sensitivity to fill as much of the screen as possible and maybe notice artifacts. e.g. Students might be asked to measure frequency response of a circuit with a uA 741 op amp. If the signal level chosen is too high and students don't actually watch the waveform they may not realize the numbers come from the slew-rate limit and not the frequency response. I actually recognized the problem of the seductiveness of digital displays in another lab where students used a lock-in amplifier with both a digital display and a d'Arsonval meter. The voltage went through large changes in value, and students were happily writing down the numbers when the instrument was on a totally inappropriate range. So for the first electrical-engineering lab I think forcing the students to rely on measuring the waveform themselves and not relying on the scope to do it for them gets them started well.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The user interface is easy, simple, and practical."

"The jitter function included into the system has helped me in terms of improving the capabilities of our product."

"It supports the PAM-4 encoding scheme. We use that to do our PAM-4 receiver validation."

"The most valuable feature is its frequency range."

"The Pulse Pattern Generator (PPG) and Error Detector are co-located, which makes it easier to use because I can just probe it directly on the PCB."

"We can extract signal loss, skew, DKDF... and the tool is very flexible."

"It gives you the capability to increase the Tap levels and voltage strength more than what you have in your signal."

"The most valuable features are its ease of use, user interface, and PAM-4. The user interface is good and easy to use."

"When I was looking for a scope for that lab, that five subdivisions per division was important."

"The user interface is good, not very complicated. It is very intuitive."

"It has a good user interface. It's easy to use, easy to read. It's intuitive."

"The most valuable features are everything they do. We primarily use the O-scopes and they help us figure out what's going wrong with our scope out signals."

"We have multiple systems for manufacturing tests, and it's critical for our support. The support increases our productivity."

"I trust Tektronix for its accuracy. The probes of solution fit my application. E.g., the speed of probes, the way that it is using probes with designs, and the probes' size."

"The most valuable feature is the automation component in setting up some of these measurements."

Cons

"Sometimes, the forms keep changing because of new product technology. If they could reduce the amount of change in the form, this would be good."

"The user interface is a bit complicated because they have so many tabs. If they could simplify it, this would be helpful and appreciated."

"I would like a better GUI with navigation. This should make it easier to compare to competitors, like Textronix or Keysight."

"Right now, it's a minimal tool. They could make it more dynamic by adding dynamic features, which could help us with doing effective analysis."

"I would like to see them improve the software. The new version can be improved. It's not quite stable. It restarts a lot."

"I would like the frequency range to be extended because of the speed. Electronics are moving forward to higher speeds, so it's better to have higher frequencies."

"The product's antennas and radar applications need improvement."

"If you are dealing with time domain measurement, I strongly recommend using a vendor other than this company."

"I use microservices, but you cannot really probe it, since the technology is not really there."

"I am not utilizing the full bandwidth of this product."

"On the source side, their AWGs don't have enough bandwidth. They need to increase the bandwidth of their AWGs, meaning they have to have a faster sample rate."

"I want the system to have a wider bandwidth because high-speed continues to move faster, so there is more bandwidth to cover."

"There is room for improvement when it comes to the screen size. I don't really have a lot of complaints but screen size would be the biggest thing."

"I know you can get the Bit Masks but it's generally really expensive to get the eye diagrams and Bit Masks with it. I wish they were included or cheaper."

"I would like if they could have more customer support engagement."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think everyone gets a demo before purchasing."

"Pricing is always expensive. It would be better if they lowered the price."

"Price-wise, it is much cheaper than its competitors."

"It's very expensive equipment and cannot be upgraded after five years. If you buy equipment today, in five years, it won't be upgradeable. You have to upgrade it within the first five years that you buy it."

"The first version of the product is always expensive, then once there is competition, it will be cheaper."

"It is expensive, but I guess that is why it works."

"The pricing is costly."

"It is a great price for a great product."

"It could always be cheaper."

"The prices are compatible with what they offer. Going forward, I would like them to become more competitive and dominant with their pricing in the market."

"Tecktronix pricing tends to be pretty fair and reasonable with current market trends. They don't usually bump up the price too much."

"Tektronix Oscilloscopes are really expensive for small businesses. The low-end scopes don't really compare performance-wise to what the other companies provide, like RIGOL . Mostly that just has to do with the software options."

"They're all pretty expensive. If everything costs that much, I suppose the pricing is fair."

"We demoed the product before purchasing it."

"It costs a quarter of a million. This technology is not cheap."
