How it works

The TDS 784D has 1 GHz bandwidth. The TDS 784D has sample rate to 4 GS/s. The TDS 784D has a 200,000 maximum waveform capture rate. The TDS 784D has 1% vertical accuracy. The TDS 784D has 8-bit vertical resolution, over 11 bits with averaging, and over 13 bits with Hi Res.[1]

The TDS 784D is part of the TDS 700D digitizing oscilloscope family. The TDS 700D family user interface uses front-panel buttons, knobs, and on-screen menus. The TDS 700D family front-panel controls are grouped by vertical, horizontal, trigger, and special functions. The TDS 700D family signal acquisition system provides up to four full-featured vertical channels. The TDS 700D family allows all channels to be acquired simultaneously.[4]
