Product Information
The Tektronix 2430A is a completely digital scope that will find a place in your laboratory or home electronics workshop. It operates off of an ordinary American wall current of 115 volts or the European standard of 230 volts. An American standard wall plug and connection to the power supplies are included. The oscilloscope can be housed inside a strong carrying case. This will protect it from all the normal varieties of wear and tear you may encounter. The case also makes it convenient to carry around when traveling. The power input is located on the back, and the voltage testing probes and scopes are arranged along the front. It also can interface directly with a computer through a GPIB or IEEE-488 interface bus. The cords to the power supply and the GPIB are constructed for strength and durability.The Tektronix 2430A oscilloscope is an iteration of the reliable Tektronix 2430 digital scope series. This is a powerful scope with a variety of high-tech digital and analog features. The automatic measuring system works in two different modes. It can measure as many as four different parameters at once, or it can be used to show a single picture of twenty different waveform parameters. The Tektronix series of oscilloscopes provides reliable performance and information in a variety of circumstances.The Tektronix 2430A Oscilloscope is a valuable resource when it comes to understanding more about a frequency. You can chart the signal on a custom-created graph. This allows you to learn a variety of information about the signal's time and voltage value. A scope like this is a valuable tool for setting a circuit's trim potentiometer. That makes the Tektronix an important and useful piece of equipment for protecting your other sensitive electronic equipment. Because of its portability and ease of operation, the Tek works as a laboratory standard. It can be expected to provide reliable information again and again. Testing lines and working on circuits in situ can be made easier and quicker. The digital display on the screen records the electronic frequencies of any oscillating signal. It also records the "moving parts" of the circuits that it represents. You can track the graph's X-axis to temporal measurement while the Y-axis is mapped to voltage readings. Then the reading's brightness can be set to the Z-axis. This helpful and easy-to-read display lets you understand more about signal noise and how it may be affected over time. The information one can gather thanks to this innovative 150 MHz dual channel device is extensive.This Tek scope allows you to search the MHz bandwidth data, displaying it on the CRT scope in real time at any sampling rate. This allows manual calibration of electronic devices. The vintage nature of this equipment lets it work easily with analog devices. It contains a lithium battery that can be used to save waveform traces even after the power source is removed. The lithium battery also allows storage of a lookup table of calibration fudge factors, which can be very useful in the field.Product Identifiers
