Capture Elusive Glitches and Waveform Anomalies

In today's high-speed digital designs, elusive glitches

and random anomalies can cause circuits to fail.

The TDS3000C Series speeds anomaly detection

with its digital phosphor technology and patented

WaveAlert waveform anomaly detection feature.

The TDS3000C Series employs digital phosphor

technology to capture and display infrequent wave-

forms or waveform variations. Its real-time intensity-

grading provides you with information about the

frequency of occurrence of signal amplitudes

and widths, making it easier to understand the

characteristics of the transients you've captured.

To fully utilize the TDS3000C Series'

digital phosphor technology:

1. Press the Display button to show the display menu.

2. Press Waveform Display on the bottom menu.

3. Confirm that Persist Time on the side menu is set to

Auto.

4. Press the Clear Persistence side menu button.

5. As desired, select the Backlight Intensity and

Graticule settings.

6. As desired, rotate the Waveform Intensity front

panel knob to adjust the persistence of the anomalous

waveform.
