Automated Video Measurement Set — VM6000
Supports SD, HDTV, and RGBHV Component
Analog Video Formats
The VM6000 can be flexibly configured to support any combination of
component analog SDTV, HDTV, and RGBHV video formats with the
available options. Broad format support enables automated test of digital
set-top boxes, video semiconductors, DVD players, PC graphics cards,
and other consumer video devices.
User-defined Format allows users to test nonstandard formats by entering
custom timing parameters, allowing support of unique formats and future
undefined formats.

Bandwidth and Sample Rates Suitable for
HDTV and High-resolution PC Graphics
Signals
The VM6000 utilizes a digital phosphor oscilloscope platform as the
basis for signal acquisition and analysis. Utilizing proven, high-speed
measurement architecture, Tektronix surpasses the limitations of current
video analyzers to address the evolving needs of the video industry.
The VM6000 offers over 1 GHz of bandwidth and 5 GS/s maximum
real-time sample rates for all 4 measurement channels – easily assessing
the frequency response of 60 MHz HDTV signals or transient response
of 350 MHz PCF VESA signals. The high sample rates and low noise
floor of the instrument enable noise measurement accuracy that was
previously impossible on HDTV signals. A typical rise time of 225 ps and
superior time-base performance are sufficient to make critical sync and
rise-time measurements as required by EIA-770 and SMPTE 274 M and
VESA. Standard 10 M (4 CH) record length and high sample rates deliver
measurement results with minimal time lag.
