The Tektronix TBS2102B is a 100 MHz digital storage oscilloscope built for signal analysis in engineering and technical troubleshooting. Its 9-inch WVGA color display with 15 horizontal grids and 800 × 480 pixel resolution delivers clear waveform visualization alongside 32 automated measurements and FFT analysis. The instrument captures up to 5 Mpts per channel at sampling rates reaching 2 GS/s (single channel) or 1 GS/s (all channels), with 8-bit vertical resolution and 3.5 ns rise time.
