Introducing the New, Faster 4 Series B MSO from Tektronix
Designed to address the needs of engineers who adapt to different challenges every day
The new 4 Series B MSO from Tektronix offers test engineers versatility, equipping them with an oscilloscope that can adapt and change to the challenges they face. With a faster processor, exceptionally accurate measurements, and Tektronix’s award-winning user interface, the new 4 Series B Mixed Signal Oscilloscope adapts to virtually any testing challenge.
The 4 Series B is available in 4 or 6-channel models with upgradeable bandwidths from 200 MHz to 1.5 GHz, and up to 16-bit vertical resolution. Each channel can show waveforms, RF spectrums, or both, with independent controls for each domain. And any channel can transform to measure 8 logic channels by connecting a logic probe.
New features of the Tektronix 4 Series B MSO
- NEW More powerful computation platform with increased processing power
- User interface is twice as responsive
- Remote data transfers are 50% faster
- Measurements and serial decoding are more than 2 x faster than the previous 4 Series MSO
- NEW Display technology delivers more contrast and better viewing angles with less screen reflection
- NEW 2 rear-panel USB 3.1 ports for 10 x faster data transfers to USB media
- NEW Fully supported e*Scope for easy, browser-based remote control with 10x faster display update rate
- NEW Measurement annotations indicate reference levels and timing for more measurements.
- NEW Waveform histograms provide insight into noise and jitter specifications comparison
Compared to the 4 Series MSO, the new Series B models have several internal upgrades which allow for faster processing.

Do even more with the new 4 Series B MSO
Available to purchase from APC Technology Group with expert advice and after sales support, the 4 Series B MSO offers test engineers longevity with a host of upgrades available, ensuring the oscilloscope can be adapted to met your test requirements as needs change. This includes increasing the bandwidth to 350 MHz, 500 MHz, 1 GHz up to 1.5 GHz and doubling the record length to 62.5 Mpts per channel.
4 Series B MSO Application Bundles
There are also six application bundles available that deliver outstanding value, all available with a 1-year or perpetual license. Application bundles are a great alternative to purchasing individual options, especially if you plan to address diverse applications with your oscilloscope. Compared to individual options, these specially designed bundles:
- Offer better value with more functions at a much lower cost than equivalent individual options
- Make it cost-effective to purchase capabilities to cover future needs or needs across engineering teams
- Include the most frequently combined options for key applications and industries
- Provide flexibility to adjust year-to-year with lower cost 1-year subscriptions
Capabilities that most engineers will find valuable are available in the Starter Bundle. MSOs equipped with a Starter Bundle will be able to decode and trigger on I2 C, SPI, RS232/422/485/UART bus activity.
4 further ‘Pro’ bundles are also available which have been specially designed to empower engineers in particular applications and industries, such as the Automotive or Aerospace industries.
For the most cost-effective and feature-rich option, the Ultimate bundle will grant access to everything in the Starter and all four Pro bundles, offering a fully comprehensive testing experience.
