DESCRIPTION:
The Rohde & Schwarz RTC1002 configured with the RTC-B222 option extends the RTC1000 platform to 200 MHz bandwidth, providing enhanced capability for troubleshooting modern embedded systems, power electronics, industrial control equipment, communications interfaces, and mixed-signal electronic designs. The RTC1000 family combines multiple measurement instruments into a single compact bench-top solution, reducing both equipment costs and laboratory footprint.
The oscilloscope features two analog input channels with a maximum real-time sampling rate of 2 GSa/s and memory depth of up to 2 Mpoints. The 200 MHz bandwidth configuration provides sufficient performance for analysis of high-speed digital buses, switching power supplies, microcontroller systems, industrial communications, sensor interfaces, and transient events encountered in modern electronics development.
A key strength of the RTC1000 platform is its integrated multi-instrument architecture. In addition to oscilloscope functionality, the instrument includes FFT frequency analysis, digital voltmeter operation, waveform generation, pattern generation, frequency measurements, and component testing capability. These integrated functions eliminate the need for multiple bench instruments during development, education, troubleshooting, and production testing activities.
The integrated FFT capability allows engineers to examine spectral content, harmonics, switching noise, and signal distortion directly from acquired waveforms. Simultaneous time-domain and frequency-domain analysis enables rapid diagnosis of power integrity issues, EMI sources, and signal quality concerns.
Optional upgrades further extend capability through mixed-signal operation, logic analysis, serial protocol triggering, and protocol decoding for I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, LIN, RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 communications. This makes the RTC1002 particularly effective for embedded system development and industrial electronics troubleshooting.
A responsive 6.5-inch capacitive touchscreen combined with traditional front-panel controls provides intuitive operation for both experienced engineers and new users. The compact fanless design ensures quiet operation, making the instrument suitable for laboratories, educational environments, manufacturing facilities, and service centres.
The RTC1002 + RTC-B222 configuration provides an excellent balance between bandwidth, functionality, and affordability for engineers requiring advanced measurement capability in a compact bench-top platform.
