The Tektronix DSA8200 is a Digital Serial Analyzer sampling oscilloscope built for communication signal analysis, TDR/TDT and serial data network analysis, and the acquisition and measurement of repetitive ultrafast signals. It combines world-class waveform acquisition technology with an extensible modular architecture, delivering high-performance TDR and interconnect analysis, accurate analysis of signal impairments, and BER calculations for current and emerging serial data technology used to develop high-speed serial devices.

Tektronix positions the DSA8200 for design and verification of telecom and datacom components and systems, and for manufacturing and testing to ITU/ANSI/IEEE and SONET/SDH compliance. Other named applications include high-performance true-differential TDR measurements; advanced jitter, noise, and BER analysis; impedance characterization and network analysis for serial data applications including S-parameters; and channel and eye-diagram simulation with measurement-based SPICE modeling.

ValueTronics stocks and holds its own inventory in a secure 20,000-square-foot warehouse at 1675 Cambridge Drive in Elgin, Illinois, so the equipment we list is equipment we physically control. Every pre-owned unit is inspected and functionally verified in-house before it ships, while new units ship factory-sealed exactly as received from the manufacturer. Backed by experienced test-and-measurement specialists, we help you match the right mainframe-and-module configuration to your application and stand behind every order.

## Compare Other Models in This Series

The DSA8200 is a single sampling-oscilloscope mainframe whose measurement capability is defined by the plug-in modules installed in its six slots. Tektronix offers families of electrical sampling modules, true-differential TDR modules, multirate optical modules, clock-recovery modules, and accessory modules, so one mainframe can be configured for electrical, optical, TDR, and serial-data-link work. The modules differ primarily in bandwidth, supported data rates, channel count, and connector type.

Because the mainframe accommodates up to four dual-channel electrical modules and up to two optical sampling modules — eight acquired channels maximum — the same DSA8200 can be tailored from general high-speed electrical characterization to 100 Gb/s optical compliance testing simply by changing modules. The comparison table below summarizes how the available modules differ in bandwidth, rise time, noise, and supported rates.

Each pre-owned configuration listed below is its own dedicated product page with condition-matched pricing. Select the mainframe and module combination that fits your application, and review the specifications on each page to confirm the bandwidth, data rate, and channel count you need.

The DSA8200 supports long record-length acquisitions — up to 1,000,000 points with IConnect and up to 3,200,000 points with 80SJNB Jitter, Noise, and BER Analysis software — and provides the communications-tailored measurement set for serial data, TDR, and signal-integrity work.

Within the electrical sampling module family, bandwidth ranges from 20 GHz (80E03, 80E04) through 30 GHz (80E07, 80E08) up to 50, 60, and 70+ GHz (80E01, 80E09, and 80E06 respectively), with the corresponding step-response rise times and RMS-noise figures shown in the comparison table. The 80E07, 80E08, 80E09, and 80E10 use fully integrated 2-meter remote samplers, while the 80E01, 80E03, 80E04, and 80E06 can use an optional 80N01 2-meter extender cable. The 80E10, 80E08, and 80E04 add true-differential TDR step generation for impedance and S-parameter characterization.

The optical sampling modules differ by supported data rate and wavelength coverage: the 80C07B covers 155 Mb/s to 2.5 Gb/s, the 80C08C, 80C11, and 80C12 address rates around 10 Gb/s, the 80C14 extends to 14 Gb/s, and the 80C10B and 80C25GBE cover 40 Gb/s and 100 Gb/s testing. Clock-recovery support, optical reference-receiver filtering, mask-test sensitivity, and bandwidth differ by module as detailed in the comparison table.
