In addition to the descriptor fields showing comprehensive information about scope set- tings and status, you can touch them to open up a setup dialog and change your settings. 2. Want to do some analysis? Two touches. Want to quickly characterize a signal’s timing characteristics? Touch ‘Measure’ and ‘Horizontal’ to see six common timing parame- ters. Math, histograms, statistics, and other analysis tools are all within two touches. 3. Dedicated vertical controls Each channel has its own volts per division (V/div) control knob. You can control any channel by turning the knob — eliminating the need to multiplex a single V/div control across all four channels. 4. Cursor knobs 7. Handy USB Port Need a quick measurement? Just turn the cursor knob to bring up a With one USB port on the front panel and four more on the back, pair of vertical cursors to measure timing relationships and quickly you can connect an unlimited number of plug-n-play peripheral and characterize the waveform. memory devices. 5.

Press a knob — presto! 2.5 mm with low capacitance and a flat impulse response. Lost the waveform? Just press the offset button. Your scope instantly zeroes the offset, restoring the waveform to the middle of your screen where you can see it clearly. Press again to restore the offset. Similar press functions allow you to automatically set the trigger level, zero delay, and reset zooms. 39 WAVERUNNER OSCILLOSCOPES – 3 The New WaveRunner 6000 Series An Interface that’s Easy to Use – Impossible to be Without Hundreds of scope users like you have con- We started from the proven code base of our tributed to this uniquely simple and convenient acclaimed WaveMaster™ and WavePro® scopes. user interface.

Simple pop-up menus guide you, easily and intuitively, through virtually every measurement you might ever want to make. 40 WAVERUNNER OSCILLOSCOPES – 3 The New WaveRunner 6000 Series Acquisition Performance without Tradeoffs Old-technology scopes force you to make trade-offs between sample rate and memory that compromise the accuracy of your measurements: • You can have a fast sample rate, but you can’t run at full speed for more than a few microseconds. So you risk missing a detail that is separated from the trigger point. Or . . . • You can run at full speed longer, but sample at a slower rate. This may cause you to miss a high-frequency transient or a sharp edge. The WaveRunner 6000 Series takes the trade-offs away. The WaveRunner 6000 Series of benchtop scopes backs up bandwidths from 350 MHz to 2 GHz, with sample rates of 2.5 to 10 GS/s. Standard memory length is an impressive 1 Mpts, expandable to 12 Mpts on all channels, and up to 24 Mpts when interleaved. This performance is delivered at a price far below old-technology oscilloscopes. So even on a tight budget, you can afford the confidence delivered by leading-edge technology.

WaveRunner 6000 Series. *Interpolation on your DSO, Pupalaikis, 2003 Just 2.5 mm, the PP007 lets you take measurements in small spaces without touch- ing another device. The low capacitance (<9.5 pF) and flat impulse response ensure your signal is perfectly transmitted to the high-fidelity WaveRunner front-end amplifier. The probe is compatible with over 30 accessories, including clips, leads, hooks, tips, ground leads, and BNC adapters. This makes it practical in a variety of applications. The PP007 is just one of over 25 LeCroy passive, active, current and differen- tial probes that are compatible with the WaveRunner 6000 — one is sure to be perfect for your application. 42 STANDARD DEVIATION OF RISETIME WAVERUNNER OSCILLOSCOPES – 3 The New WaveRunner 6000 Series Why is Long Memory Important? A fast sample rate is useless if you don’t have enough memory to use it. Traditional oscilloscopes can run out of memory in microseconds if they are sampling at their fastest rate. If you need to see a longer period of time, you must reduce the sample rate and risk a loss of signal fidelity. Here’s an example. The most famous feature of the Mona Lisa is her smile. Yet, one of the great mysteries of the art world is why she is smiling. This parallels a typical debugging session. The smile represents the symptom that is triggering your scope (glitch, reset line going high, etc) and you must find the root cause. Figure 2 shows the dilemma facing the short-memory scope user: either be limited to looking at the smile (2b); or try to find the answer in a blurry picture (2a). Long memory in Figure 3 gives you enough information to see the entire picture at full resolution, and to realize that Mona Lisa is smiling, listening to Leo’s new music player. 1a 2a 3 1b 2b 1 Mpt Full resolution of entire image 10 kpt 100 kpt Other advantages of long sample records: • Reliable capture of events that are unpredictable in time. • Signal parameters can be tracked over time, which makes it easier to find effects that “drift” or “roll” as a function of time. • Statistically significant histograms can be generated with a single acquisition. • When looking for intermittent errors, capturing long records minimizes the “dead time” between data captures as well as jitter. • Minimized or eliminated trigger jitter from multiple acquisitions. 43 WAVERUNNER OSCILLOSCOPES – 3 The New WaveRunner 6000 Series SMART TRIGGER MAKES THE MOST OF YOUR LONG MEMORY The WaveRunner 6000 SMART Trigger provides the flexibility needed to quickly trigger on the specific signal characteristic or pattern you are looking for. You can also trigger on abnormal signals at the touch of a button. An exclusion/inclusion feature lets you trigger on signals that are either outside, or within, a specific range of pulse width. By selecting multiple threshold levels and the pulse width, you can quickly and easily catch the waveform you want to view and measure. Your WaveRunner 6000 scope’s memory retains thousands of events that can be acquired for viewing at your leisure. Replay the signal history, scan and search from sweep to sweep, and stop when you see something of interest. X-Stream™: Long memory without the wait LeCroy’s proprietary X-Stream Technology, built into all of our WaveRunner 6000 oscilloscopes, enables faster throughput and a highly responsive display. Proprietary algorithms, CMOS memory, and SiGe amplifiers and ADCs, permit data transfer and processing 10 to 100 times faster than competitors’ scopes. 44 WAVERUNNER OSCILLOSCOPES – 3 The New WaveRunner 6000 Series Unlimited Expandability Makes for a Lasting Relationship It’s an engineer’s dream: a benchtop oscilloscope that can handle everyday signal measurements easily and efficiently, but can power up to perform more sophisticated WaveShape Analysis when needed. Designed to grow with your needs, the WaveRunner 6000 Series makes this dream come true. Optional packages allow this versatile benchtop scope to handle your most advanced math and analysis tasks with ease, no matter what your application. Yet it’s priced far below other scopes that are not nearly as versatile and fully featured.
