| The '''Tektronix TDS694C''' is a four-channel, 3 GHz, 10 GS/s digital scope. The project codename was 'Screamer'.

| No earlier revisions (TDS694B etc) appear to have been released.

| These scopes contain ICs in the triggering system that are known to fail, commonly understood to be for thermal reasons. Three ICs are present: Ch 1/2, Ch 3/4, 'Other' (ext trig?). The ICs appear to have poor thermal contact with the PCB; when failed, the scope will no longer trigger on the relevant channels (however, signals will still be acquired). It is possible to transplant these ICs with standard SMT hot-air rework equipment. The 'Other' IC has been used as a donor in some cases.

| Do not operate this scope without the case on, WITHOUT extra cooling means.
| |
| | |
| The low (by modern standards) memory length, coupled with the high sample rate of this scope, means that it is best described as a 'one-shot' (or 'transient') digitizer. At the fastest sweep (100ps/div), only 3uS of data can be captured with the standard memory allocation.
