Product Upgrade Hardware and software upgrades are available for all products, either as a field upgrade kit or as a free software download from the Tektronix Web site. The WVR7200 Waveform Rasterizer User Manual includes instructions for updating product firmware.
Theory of Operation The WVR7200 is a modular waveform rasterizer. They can be configured, with options, to accept Analog Composite inputs. Audio options can add inputs for digital only or analog audio capability. All models use an external DVI-I monitor for the display. All models also have outputs to drive serial digital and analog picture monitors.
Theory of Operation Power Distribution is not shown in the block diagram but is covered at the end of this section. Figure 1: Main block diagram WVR7200 Waveform Rasterizer Service Manual...
It draws the audio bars, communicates with the front panel, and controls most other internal devices though either the SPI or the I C bus. Audio data is input to the control processor via the 8 bit HPI bus. WVR7200 Waveform Rasterizer Service Manual...
On the second path, raw data samples are sent to the waveform processing engine which interpolates and plots it to generate the lissajous, or “phase,” display. WVR7200 Waveform Rasterizer Service Manual...
