The TDS 200 Oscilloscopes have quickly become the benchmark for low-cost oscilloscopes. Offering an unbeatable combination of performance, reliability and versatility, the TDS 200 Series offers breakthrough digital and real-time advantages at low-cost analog oscilloscope prices.
Affordable Digital Performance
No other digital oscilloscope offers as much bandwidth and sample rate for the price. By sampling at 10 and 16 times their bandwidths on all channels, the TDS 200 Series oscilloscopes provide accurate real-time acquisition up to their full bandwidth.
Versatility and Flexibility
The portable form factor provides increased versatility, allowing the instrument to be easily moved or safely stored away when not in use.
Easy to Use
The user interface is similar to that of an analog oscilloscope, but with improvements that reduce learning time and increase efficiency.
The Personal Oscilloscope
The TDS 200 Series oscilloscopes are designed for people who demand the ultimate in oscilloscope value. If an inexpensive yet high performance oscilloscope is needed for the bench, production line, or training lab, a TDS 200 Series Digital Real-Time Oscilloscope is the best choice.
