Data Sheet

White edges indicate additional information is available by zooming in. As shown here,

zooming in on the white edge reveals a hidden glitch.

The MagniVu high-resolution record provides 121.2 ps timing resolution, enabling you to

make critical timing measurements on your digital waveforms.

The multiple transition detection hardware of the MSO3000 Series will
show you a white edge on the display when the system detects multiple
transitions. White edges indicate that more information is available by
zooming in or acquiring at faster sampling rates. In most cases zooming in
will reveal the pulse that was not viewable with the previous settings. If the
white edge is still present after zooming in as far as possible, this indicates
that increasing the sample rate on the next acquisition will reveal higher
frequency information than the previous settings could acquire.
The MSO3000 Series simplifies channel setup by allowing you to group
digital waveforms and enter waveform labels by using a USB keyboard.
By simply placing digital waveforms next to each other, they form a group.

The P6316 MSO probe offers two eight-channel pods to simplify connecting to your

device.

Once a group is formed, you can position all the channels contained in that
group collectively. This greatly reduces the normal setup time associated
with positioning channels individually.

MagniVu™ High-speed Acquisition

The main digital acquisition mode on the MSO3000 Series will capture up
to 5 Mpoints at 500 MS/s (2 ns resolution). In addition to the main record,
the MSO3000 provides an ultra high-resolution record called MagniVu which
acquires 10,000 points at up to 8.25 GS/s (121.2 ps resolution). Both main
and MagniVu waveforms are acquired on every trigger and can be switched
between in the display at any time, running or stopped. MagniVu provides
significantly finer timing resolution than comparable MSOs on the market,
instilling confidence when making critical timing measurements on digital
waveforms.

P6316 MSO Probe

This unique probe design offers two eight-channel pods, simplifying the
process of connecting to the device-under-test. When connecting to square
pins, the P6316 can connect directly to 8×2 square pin headers spaced
on tenth-inch centers. When more attachment flexibility is required, you
can use the included flying lead sets and grabbers to clip onto surface
mount devices or test points. The P6316 offers outstanding electrical
characteristics applying only 8 pF of capacitive loading with 101 kΩ input
impedance.
