The Tektronix DPO77002SX is the flagship 70 GHz model of the DPO70000SX Series of scalable performance oscilloscopes, providing ultra-high-bandwidth real-time signal acquisition and analysis up to 70 GHz analog bandwidth. It uses the patented Asynchronous Time Interleaving (ATI) architecture to deliver low noise and high fidelity for real-time signal acquisition. The DPO77002SX provides one channel at 70 GHz, 200 GS/s acquisition or two channels at 33 GHz, 100 GS/s acquisition, and includes a 70 GHz, 1.85 mm low-noise ATI input channel along with general-purpose TekConnect 2.92 mm inputs for versatile probing and signal conditioning to 33 GHz, all housed in a compact 5.25-inch (3U) instrument package.

An oscilloscope captures voltage waveforms over time so an engineer can see a signal's amplitude, frequency, timing, and shape. Low-noise, high-fidelity acquisition is critical in the ultra-bandwidth applications this series addresses, including long-haul coherent optical, 400G datacom, and wideband RF. The DPO70000SX provides performance for complex optical modulation analysis, jitter and noise analysis of high-speed serial signaling, and frequency, phase, and modulation analysis of wideband RF signals. Listed application areas span enterprise computing such as PCI Express Gen 1 through 4 and USB 3.0 transmitter test, datacom PAM4 and NRZ measurements, coherent optical modulation analysis of 400 Gb/s and Terabit systems, display interfaces including HDMI and DisplayPort, mobile-computing DDR memory bus and MIPI D-PHY and M-PHY analysis, and RF measurements such as radar chirp linearity, K-Band satellite communications, and IEEE 802.11ad WiGig transmitter testing.

ValueTronics stocks and holds its own inventory in a 20,000 square-foot secure warehouse at 1675 Cambridge Drive in Elgin, Illinois. Every pre-owned instrument is inspected and functionally verified in-house before it ships, while new units ship factory-sealed exactly as received from the manufacturer. Keeping equipment on hand at our own facility lets us match the right configuration to a customer's application and ship it quickly, backed by people who know test and measurement equipment.

Compare Other Models in This Series

The DPO70000SX Series is a family of scalable performance oscilloscopes that share a compact 5.25-inch (3U) package and the UltraSync multi-unit time synchronization bus, differing primarily in real-time bandwidth and channel count. The series spans models from 23 GHz to 70 GHz, with the 50, 59, and 70 GHz models built on the patented ATI architecture and the 23 GHz and 33 GHz models offering four TekConnect inputs.

Because any model can operate standalone or be combined with others through UltraSync cabling, the series is designed for a scalable approach to performance: a user can purchase the bandwidth and channel count required today and add units later for higher channel count or greater bandwidth. Master-Extension configurations add input channels synchronized to the same precision as internal channels and controlled from a single interface.

Each pre-owned model in this series is listed on its own dedicated product page with condition-matched pricing. Use the links below to select the specific bandwidth and channel configuration you need at the pre-owned condition and price that fit your requirements.

The DPO77002SX is the 70 GHz ATI Performance Oscilloscope and the flagship of the series, providing one channel at 70 GHz, 200 GS/s or two channels at 33 GHz, 100 GS/s. It offers a unique value proposition for single-channel 70 GHz, 200 GS/s applications such as RF analysis or pulsed laser studies, where a user can start with one unit for 70 GHz channel performance plus two channels at 33 GHz and add units later via UltraSync for higher channel count.

The models differ by analog bandwidth and channel count. The DPO77002SX provides 70 GHz performance, the DPO75902SX provides 59 GHz, and the DPO75002SX provides 50 GHz, each combining a 200 GS/s ATI channel with TekConnect channels to 33 GHz. The DPO73304SX provides two channels at 33 GHz or four channels at 23 GHz, and the DPO72304SX provides four channels at 23 GHz, both using TekConnect channels at 100 GS/s. Tektronix identifies the 50, 59, and 70 GHz models as the highest-performance members of the portfolio.

Multi-unit configurations using UltraSync extend channel count and combine units of the same model, for example two DPO77002SX units providing two channels at 70 GHz or four channels at 33 GHz. Rise time, sample rate, and noise figures vary by model and configuration; refer to the comparison table that follows for the exact per-model values.
