What it is

The Tektronix DPO 73304 SX Oscilloscope is a digital real-time oscilloscope.[2][1]

The DPO 73304 SX belongs to the Tektronix DPO70000SX series.[1]

How it works

The DPO 73304 SX uses real-time acquisition with 33 GHz analog bandwidth and up to 100 GS/s sample rate.[2][1]

The DPO70000SX architecture uses UltraSync multi-unit time synchronization and supports compact standalone operation with external display, keyboard, and mouse.[1]

Where it fits in the process flow

The DPO 73304 SX provides acquisition performance similar to the DPO73304DX bench model in a compact instrument form factor.[1]

Applications

The DPO70000SX series is used for high-speed serial signaling, optical modulation analysis, jitter analysis, noise analysis, and wideband RF signal analysis.[1]

The DPO70000SX series is also used for long-haul coherent optical systems and 400G datacom applications.[1]
