The Tektronix SD-22 is a 12.5 GHz sampling module engineered to extend the measurement capabilities of compatible Tektronix oscilloscopes. It delivers high-bandwidth signal acquisition for precise analysis of ultrafast digital, data communications, and RF/microwave signals. The module mounts directly into compatible oscilloscope instrument slots via proprietary connector, inheriting sampling rate and vertical resolution from the host instrument.
Technical Specifications
• Bandwidth: 12.5 GHz
• Input Impedance: 50 Ohms
• Input Connector: SMA (SubMiniature version A) female
• Host Interface: Proprietary connector for direct integration with compatible Tektronix oscilloscope chassis
– Key Features
• Single SMA input channel for direct signal coupling
• 50 Ohm matched input for laboratory and field measurements
• Host-supplied power via oscilloscope instrument slot
• Direct module mounting eliminates external interconnect losses
– Typical Applications
• High-speed digital design verification and signal integrity analysis
• Serial data stream characterization (Ethernet, USB, PCIe protocols)
• RF and microwave signal evaluation for wireless and radar systems
• Jitter and timing measurement on complex signal waveforms
– Compatibility & Integration
The SD-22 is designed for insertion into Tektronix oscilloscope models that support high-bandwidth sampling modules. Sampling rate, vertical resolution, and maximum input voltage are determined by the host oscilloscope configuration and probe selection. Verify compatibility with your specific oscilloscope model before integration.
