Speci fi cations
This chapter contains speci fi cations for the DPO2000 and the MSO2000 series
oscilloscopes. All speci fi cations are guaranteed unless noted as "typical."
Typical speci fi cations are provided for your convenience but are not guaranteed.
Speci fi cations that are marked with the symbol are checked in Performance
Veri fi cation .
All speci fi cations apply to all DPO2000 and MSO2000 models unless noted
otherwise. To meet speci fi cations, two conditions must fi rst be met:
The oscilloscope must have been operating continuously for twenty minutes
within the operating temperature range speci
fi ed.
You must perform the Signal Path Compensation (SPC) operation prior to
evaluating speci
fi cations. (See page 18, Signal Path Compensation (SPC) .)
If the operating temperature changes by more than 10 °C (18 °F), you must
perform the SPC operation again.

Characteristic Description
DPO2012, MSO2012 DPO20x4, MSO20x4 Number of input
channels
2 analog, digitized simultaneously 4 analog, digitized simultaneously
Input coupling DC, AC, or GND
AC coupling connects a capacitor in series with the input circuitry.
GND coupling provides a reference waveform derived from the values identi
fi ed during SPC. This reference
waveform shows visually where ground is expected to be.

TekVPI Interface The probe interface allows installing, powering, compensating, and controlling a wide range of probes
offering a variety of features
If a probe requires 12 V bulk power, it must be supplied by the Optional External Power Adapter
The interface is available on all front panel inputs including Aux In
Total probe power 50 W from optional 12 V VPI External Power Adapter
Zero 12 V bulk power without optional External Power Adapter
