The WaveRunner 8000 is a series of oscilloscopes launched by Teledyne LeCroy. TLC is a well-known testing and measurement company, significantly positioned in the field of testing and measurement instruments such as oscilloscopes and logic analyzers. Their products are widely used in industries such as electronic design, communications, and aerospace, providing engineers and researchers with precise signal analysis and testing tools. Their slogan “Everywhere you look” emphasizes the brand’s extensive coverage and application across various fields.
The device features the following:
Performance Parameters
- Bandwidth: Covers a range from 500MHz to 4GHz, with variations among different models; for instance, some models of the WaveRunner 8000HD can reach a bandwidth of 2GHz.
- Sampling Rate: Up to 40GS/s, with different sampling rates depending on channel configurations; for example, it may be 10GS/s for 4 channels and up to 20GS/s for 2 channels.
- Storage Depth: Long storage capability, with the “M” model reaching up to 128Mpts, and the WaveRunner 8000HD reaching up to 5Gpts, allowing for long-term signal capture at full sampling rate and resolution.
Functional Features
- User Interface: Utilizes the MAUI advanced user interface, with OneTouch features providing a touch operation experience, allowing common operations to be completed with a single button. Users can interact with the oscilloscope through gestures (drag, pull, pinch, tap, etc.) and customize measurement parameters and functions.
- Measurement and Analysis: Standard configuration includes functions, measurement, debugging, and archiving tools, with features such as jitter and timing analysis, WaveScan search, and History Mode waveform playback. The software options are rich, including digital filtering, spectrum analysis, device and power supply analysis, etc.
- Signal Processing: The WaveRunner 8000 – MS model integrates 16 digital channels with a sampling rate of 1.25GS/s, providing mixed-signal testing capabilities, enabling analog and digital cross-pattern triggering, digital pattern search, etc. It has powerful serial data analysis tools, including various protocol and eye diagram testing toolkits, capable of handling serial data triggering, decoding, measurement, etc.
Application Areas
Suitable for high-power/three-phase power conversion testing, automotive electronics testing (such as automotive ECU), power integrity and power timing testing, embedded control system debugging and analysis, and other scenarios.
